My April fools joke is that tonight I’ll actually post a page for the first time in three months. The twist is that this is completely true and will actually happen, it’s almost done, I just need to do the speech bubbles.

"The Rope and Lantern Society Tarot #1 - The Tower."

"We won't sit around and let the world go by, We're gonna fly around the big, black sky tonight, And when the fire falls from on high, We can be the pretty heroes if we try, tonight."

I know it's been a bit since an actual update, that's coming soon, but first I need to take a little look into the future for each of the characters. gotta get unstuck.

EDIT: Took another "I drew this at 2am and now I've had a day to look at it" pass at this one, fixed some little parts that were bugging me.

Hey, so I guess I should clarify, this is NOT going to be an ask blog moving forward, the plot is pretty set and I'd like to focus on telling the story I have planned.

That being said, I will of course try to answer any questions sent in, and maybe draw a few responses if an idea hits me. And questions and feedback are always appreciated for figuring out what things might need more focus and clarity.

Thanks,

The big problem with this series no longer being set in a cave is that I need to like... actually put effort into at least a couple of backgrounds. Can't get away with as many vague cave and forest shapes all the time. XP

My most important of reference sheets.

So this was brought to you by the fact that I kind of had three different scenes to start and set up on for this next story, they’re all going to happen eventually, I just wasn’t sure where to begin. This works out though, the “name” scene is also a reunion of sorts, and that starts things right around where we last left off with Rose.

Might have to come up with a new banner later, but for now we’re moving on from the spooky cultist banner and the kinda downer bio. Time for moving forward.

"The Rope and Lantern Society"

"I was told I should get out of town for the summer, visit my Aunt, just... take a breather. No cults, no mortal peril, I have my meds, I have my friends, should be a normal one, right?"

Alright, here we go. It's been almost three years, been through a lot, in my personal life, and in what this story was going to be. Was a small postscript chapter, now its... well, it's gonna be fun, hope you'll come along for the ride.

"Bea and Jackie"

Just because you fight fascists hard doesn't mean you can't love sweetly.

Inspired quite a bit by the many fantastic Bea and Jackie drawings by toxxoglossa on twitter: https://twitter.com/Toxxoglossa

Honestly I was really proud of this one, but unfortunately had to edit and crop most of it to post it here. Full version will be in other places I can definitely give you.
