You know what, if I have some thoughts about the comic page I’ll try to write about it here from now on. I’ll leave my “minimalist witty quips” in the alt-text/meta description, and I do like writing out my thoughts about it if I have any. Thinking of those quips and the titles for every page is quite hard if you didn’t know!
So… writing (relatively) average people is definitely more challenging than action/shonen protagonists. They can’t fight, get scared, and there’s only so much they can do with what they have, and they can’t just Leeroy Jenkins in there like an idiot and well, die. Keith has done something like that sure, but IMO that’s a bit forgivable since that’s done for comedy. Something to take note, fellow writers!
Sorry for the rant, I’m just worried that all the talking is making it look more like Tell, Don’t Show instead of the other way around. That, and I keep forgetting to forgive myself since I’m actually still just a beginner writer and this whole Episode was my first attempt at anything semi-serious happening to the protagonists.
Bakunawa: HISS!!
Haliyans: Hya! Take that! RAWR!!
Cruz: Woah!
Keith: That's two people I've seen turn into wereanimals tonight.
Myan: Meow! (It's sooo weird~!)
Cruz: The ladies seem to be handling themselves alright!
Cruz: So what do we do now? Keep running?
Tammy: I'd rather stay FAR away from that monster, but...
Keith: Agreed. Feels wrong to leave without trying to help...
Keith: ...and we can run, but we're helpless without them in this strange place.
Tammy: R-right.
Cruz: Let's leave when we can't think of something then.
Tbh I don’t really know what to say to someone who’ll stay behind to give their lives to delay whatever. “Thank you”? “I’ll never forget you”? “I owe you my life?” Well, I do know “kthx bye” is a huge no-no at least.
