HI, early update today!! :D I'm heading out of town tomorrow so I'm gonna TRYYYYY to get to sleep before midnight.
It probably would've been smarter to just let the website post and go to bed but uh..... I DID THIS INSTEAD.
If you vote for Runewriters you get an extra doodle! This one answers the obvious question.
Vote Incentive for This Comic.
Yeah, the exact feelings would probably vary a little but he's not too far off the consensus!
Raising the undead in Varænske is less of a vile, evil thing and more like just a gross, weird thing. Like, it'd be similar to the feeling of, I guess you can bring your anime body pillow into church, technically, but they'd really rather you didn't, that's just, weird,,,

Now I have a mental image of Jonan carrying around a body pillow and I can't get rid of it.

I'm going to go and pour holy water in my eyes to get that image out of my brain...

oh dear. this is all my fault. I'm so sorry.

Oh goodness poor miss nondescript necromancer and her zombie... Kangaroo? WAIT IS IT A ZOMBIE JACKRABBIT???
Jonan you drama queen, rising from behind the curtain and posing like he's Hades himself

Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw him as striking a pose. Quick, someone Photoshop him onto a Vogue cover!
In all seriousness, though, he does look quite menacing.

It's meant to be a raptor but the skull's a little weird since I didn't look up reference while scribbling up the vote incentive xD
also this is a very accurate description of Jonan
posted at 10:49am on April 12th, 2016
I notice that his strategy for no one realizing that he can't talk is just towering over people, looking as threatening as possible.
posted at 8:14pm on April 16th, 2016
Absolutely unrelated, but -- I love Jonan's outfit so much. I wish I was taallllll so I could dress like that without it being weird.

YOU AND ME BOTH, FRIEND

Does this mean Jonan is Mary Sue?
Omg let's not forget that he's the only one who has mastered all three branches of that life energy magic. He IS Mary Sue!
All we need to do now is to change his name into something more Mary Sue like. If you're feeling lazy, all kind of dots are always a good choice. For example: Jönân. Much better!

Jonan is ABSOLUTELY my sparkly Mary Sue, I MEAN, IS THERE REALLY ANY DOUBT

This is so awkward on so many different levels. I LOVE IT!!

(I feel like this is a pretty good summary of the comic xD AWKWARD ON MANY LEVELS! READ IT TODAY!!)

Yay! Sev is finally learning to keep his big mouth shut... so long as he has prompting from an angry, scowling necromancer.

good job sev

Wow. Talk about if looks could kill...
posted at 11:51am on April 11th, 2016
if jonan's looks could kill then everyone in the comic would definitely be dead by now

"Then with a jealous squeel, the wicked witch burst from concealment - where she had been lurking surreptitiously!"
Honestly, I love how casually he just comes out from behind the curtain. "Yeah, I have been here the whole time, whatevs. I'm Jonan, I hide in your curtains whenever I jolly want to. BOO!"
posted at 12:36pm on April 11th, 2016
oh my gosh
....I don't think anyone's tried melting Jonan yet but tbh it's probably worth a shot

Oooo, I see Xira peeking in there in the next to last panel . . . which means his beautifully timed entrance in the last panel is almost certainly an attempt on his part to help. I hope it works, because I actually, for some reason, really like Xira! Still, I kinda can't help but feel that Xira plus Sev plus Jonan trying to make a coherent and reasonable explanation together is probably a recipe for disaster . . . Waiting with bated breath to see what happens next week!
(Also, the vote incentive was perfect!)
posted at 12:41pm on April 11th, 2016
Xira could probably do just fine, knowing what everyine else is thinking. But then, people might notice that his eyes are glowing, so that might be a problem. So I'm more worried about Sev opening his big fat mouth and sticking his foot in it.

what are you talking about this party functions like a well oiled machine
posted at 10:56am on April 12th, 2016
A well-oiled machine that makes disasters? What? Everyone knows that those are the best kind! ^^
posted at 2:17pm on April 12th, 2016
A well-oiled machine with a couple of screws loose...
posted at 8:28pm on April 12th, 2016
So what you're saying is you think this team is not screwed enough? I dunno, with all the miscasts and notoriety they look pretty screwed.
posted at 3:53am on April 15th, 2016
Glew, you nailed it. Way to hammer the point home.
posted at 10:57am on April 16th, 2016
I'm inclined to assume Xira was "listening" in Sev's panicked mental workout there, the poor sod. Quick, bust in to make it stop!
posted at 12:39am on April 12th, 2016
Ahahahahaha omg I love this
"Ooo, were you listening in on Sev's thoughts while he was trying to figure something out? Oh geez, you poor guy,"
posted at 10:59am on April 12th, 2016
Man, I forgot this was updating again. Yay. Great comic
posted at 2:26am on April 12th, 2016
Oh awesome, thank you! :D Welcome back!!!

*IS EXTREMELY AMUSED BY VOTE INCENTIVE* XDXDXD
posted at 7:24pm on April 12th, 2016
This incentive gives more info on how the artist and the church work... Sweet! And I agree it does look like Xira was listening in :U

Oooooooooooh early update! AWESOME!
I like how the vote incentive answers the whole "what does the church think of necromancy" debate. (Or at least, what does this member of the church think, but I think we can assume this is the general consensus?)
