This page made me happy because things are no longer getting worse.
I just hope they get better quick enough for the teapot to not get used as intended in the last strip.

Quild, that's sarcasm right??

Re: Nov 6 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
(What do you mean, "totally over it" ? Are you joking?)
Dammit, Kin sees him! >_< But the tea has just finished brewing. My pessimism tells me she'll send them back before she realizes what's going on.
Also, what's with the "Damn spiders"? Is she assuming the spider bit her, causing the pain in her hand?

Did Kin just feel the pain of Minmax punching the wall?

So obvious parallelism between positions, is there actually a magical tie involved here or just dramatic positioning?

Re: Nov 6 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
It seems that they do "see" each other. That's good. Maybe she will realize it and stay with MinMax.

This comic gives me hope that we'll at some point get the 'I see you' we were waiting for. I don't trust it.

Well... here's the thing... she can't FORCE them to drink the tea. Minmax might just flat out refuse. haha.

Trust is the heartkiller.
Trust is the little death that brings total obliteration.
EDIT: Also, this whole "wait five days at a time for each new comic" is killing me. Patience is not my strong suit.

Re: Nov 6 2013 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
great comic. great parallels between the two forms despite the different body shapes. it shows a little hope and how that thieving kin was wrong that it wasn't real.

Looks that way. So much for the collar suppressing her "seeing" perception along with whatever other "racial abilities".Ziprath wrote:Did Kin just feel the pain of Minmax punching the wall?
Maybe just her perception of her perception.

I wonder - has Kin ever "seen" one of her kind before? That is, perhaps this is the first time she's been in love, and she doesn't recognize the feeling?Jochi wrote:Looks that way.

Re: Nov 6 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
THIS IS THE WORST THING EVER!
Kin is 'see-bound' to Minmax so much that shes becoming dumber!
Yes, that's right Kin... A spider bit you & left no mark on your skin. So don't kill it, instead break some dishes... Smart....
But joking aside; If Kin finds out about this pain connection, the problem should be solved.
*Correction* BETTER DAME WELL BE SOLVED SO MUCH I SEE KIN PREGGERS & AS HAPPY AS A CLOWN ON CAFFEINATED COCAINE!
(Ax still looks like a folded up sword to me.)

Re: Nov 6 2013 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
I'm not quite sure if this is 'seeing' cause it comes out of nowhere. There hasn't really been a change between Kin and Minmax (except for the huge trustbreak) that in my eyes would validate the sudden copying of behavior and even pain. Remember that Minmax started 'seeing' her during the tower battle which would have meant that Kin would have been swinging her arms around during the entire gear scene, or that Minmax would have just swiped at the wall at an imaginary spider (I know we don't see it so it could have happened). My theory is that Thunt is just showing us that Kin is also torn up about it and that they are feeling the same about what has happened.
I'm not entirely convinced of my own theory cause of the exact same body stances even in the crouching, also Kin doesn't have a spider bite on her hand where Minmax's wound is.

Re: Nov 6 2013 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
New comic!
My opinion on it:
I'd say this is good evidence for the seeing thing. What Kin's doing looks a bit unnatural. She's sitting (or lying, I don't know how it works with a snake body) there all normal, then she randomly puts her arm on her face. I know she's upset, but it still seems random, like her posture beforehand doesn't really suggest she was going to do that.
The spider doesn't seem that close to her hand, and there doesn't seem to be a bite mark, suggesting the spider may not have bitten her (or that may be down to the drawing not being finalised). Her reaction to the spider seems odd. From what I've seen in the comic, Kin doesn't come across as a violent and angry person over what I would say is minor thing. It's a bit of an over reaction to violently whack all the mugs flying after apparently being bit by a tiny spider. That seems more like something Minmax might do, as he seems to be the violently impulsive unthinking guy (and I mean that in the nicest way possible, lol). The way she yells "damn spiders!" seems a bit more like Minmax. When Kin's stressed before, she's overcome with Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness. I'd have imagined her yelling something like "accursed arachnid!".

Re: Nov 6 2013 Update: "Damn Spiders!"
Look carefully at the comic page. In 1, 7, 8
There is a spider.
The real question is will Kin rationalize her hand pain for the Spider or realize she has formed a special connection to him?

Seriously though... the FEELS! Oh Gods, the FEELS.
Also... look at the last few lines of this gem of a blog post... a teaser two and a half years in the making.
We have hope... it is small... and broken... but still good. Yeah, still good.
