I suppose that, devart, and word of mouth are the only links in?) and I must say that anyone who can make sketches simultaneously this adorable and this terrifying is a genius.

The contrast between the magical girlfriend bits that seem oh-so-familiar, and the terrifying and utterly alien cosmic horror really appeals to me. I think after reading it through the first time, I wound up with an expression of slackjawed glee/horror/utter rejection that such a thing could exist for the next half hour or so.

I can't wait to see more of her. :)<br /><br />I had /just/ been visiting The Unspeakable Vault, another Lovecraft inspired comic, where the shoggoth catchphrase is "oooh sooo coool."<br /><br />...then, I switched over to Ow My Sanity just as the human-flavoured archeoplasm said the same thing. I don't know if it was deliberate or not, but I snorted my drink up my nose. ;-)<br /><br />Love the comic!DuskyHuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769622361625654205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620346754903825026.post-20751662491620354082010-11-23T09:59:10.361-08:002010-11-23T09:59:10.361-08:00[Third attempt to post a comment, this time with a...[Third attempt to post a comment, this time with a different browser.]<br /><br />Hmm... Lain comes to mind regarding the Internet girl... *wonders curiously*<br /><br />I also wonder whether the bills-request being 'easy' was in the neutral-benevolent genie 'easy to get you enough untraceable money that you'll have as much as you could have wanted' sense, or in the the apathetic-{non-benevolent} genie 'easy to render you incapable of worrying about bills or anything else for that matter' sense... that car doesn't /seem/ to be on fire or smoking, but that could hypothetically be blood making the windows opaque... though there's none on the speaker... so probably deliberately ambiguous? Or maybe not ambiguous at all, and I'm just reading too much into it...? No, probably ambiguous, no matter whether there's a reveal later or not. Hmm. Somewhat mean-spirited if the second option given the 'anything you want' offer seemingly made and taken in good faith, but it sort of makes sense if interpreted as a favoured pastime. --Particularly if being on call not fully happily and enjoying twisting things to spite others as a hobby. I should probably just watch...<br /><br />General pleasantness.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620346754903825026.post-22329810364568741722010-11-20T20:36:57.303-08:002010-11-20T20:36:57.303-08:00Ever read English fairy tales?

One thing I learned from them is that if a mysterious female suddenly asks you for something out of the blue like that, YOU DO IT OUT OF CHARITY.
