I still don't know what to call these guys that Talita eats. Guinea bugs? Butterfly shrimp? Maybe I should bother making up a Shess language word for them.

Edit: What if guineapilars and guin...

Talita really went Godzilla on this place.

Centaur laughter is derived from a panting response like human laughter, but is a lot less frantic and resembles hiccups more in speed. The laugh involves the first step of their breathing cycle, w...

Deuterium is hydrogen with a freeloader neutron in its nucleus, making it about twice as heavy as a regular hydrogen. So heavy water, is, in fact, slightly heavier water.

Also, Dirtball's ice...

Yeah, there's the money shot.

Holy fuck, I am so immeasurably glad to be finally starting this chapter. Sorry it's been so long, I had to research hydrogen production plants and then make a massive 3D model of this set (even th...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. HI. I'M BACK.

I've been working on comic pages, but unfortunately mostly on the easy last half of chapter 6 (conversation in an apartment) and not the difficult fir...

Merch Mockups, General Update

Babylita keychains and Bip pins! The Bip pins are already ordered, they will be UV printed on cobalt blue pantone dyed metal. I think they will look cool, I wanted to do a design that wouldn't have...

New Merch Opinion Harvesting Poll

I'm almost out of Talita pins, so suffice it to say that they sold well enough that I'm considering ordering some ...

Stream Schedule and Small Press Expo

Hey gang, the schedule is gonna be weird this fall because I will be going on three plane trips in less than two months (not super excited about this). Here's the current plan, which may be subject...

Oh, Talita...

That's the end of Chapter 5 (minus the Log pages) so I'm gonna be taking another 3-ish week break. I'm gonna be at Small Press Expo during that time so come say hi if you're in ...

Seems like the perfect opportunity!

I was worrying about how Gillie wouldn't be able to realtime call the wormhole people (lightspeed comm lag was something I failed to account for in the original draft of the book) then I realized s...

Oddly alike.

A Lot of Ink Doodles July-August

I went to a Pen Expo in July and got some new toys (pilot Parallel pens, for instance). This also includes some practice artwork I did for artfight attacks.

(Turns to my Patreon audience, the most dedicated RttS fans on the internet) So have y'all heard about centaur clans?

Lmao anyways. This book is written with the expectation that mos...

Talita is the only centaur Idrisah's ever met, so she really isn't aware of how skewed an impression she has been given...

I kind of agonized about panel two's background but I think the extremely tourist-flavored phrase guide gets the point across. Now I need to find a proofreader to doublecheck my Arabic handwriting....

I'm annoyed how long it took me to finish this pretty simple page but I've been dealing with a pretty horrible arthritic flareup all week so I'll try to give myself a pass.

A video forum is the long distance version of a video conference, and is in some ways closer to a group chat or email chain. It will group local people into live video calls but also allow them to ...

Talita, you monster! How could you!

I need to come back to this page and do the math better later but for now I just need to eject it and move on. Weight estimations suckkkkk

A human mattress is basically a Talita chair.

Streaming Schedule

Hello gang, I will be busy this coming Friday picking up a friend from the airport, so the usual stream has been moved to Thursday, August 8th. Sorry that the stream times have been sliding further...

Oh my god I lived. Second half of the chapter is a conversation in an apartment. No more scaffolding.

As a fellow desperately lonely person, Talita sees through Bip's bullshit and is unimpressed.
