Have fun with it!

okay, i started a  separate blog for the fine print comic but i still can’t figure out how to organize posts. you’d think a site with blog options would have a simple sort oldest to newest but… i dunno.. maybe i’m just old XD anyhow you can follow it there.. i’ll do separate blogs for sunstone and the queen and the woodborn as well also i was told the link doesn’t work on mobile and to put  https://fineprintcomic.tumblr.com/ update! hellyeah the chrono thing works. i have it pinned on the blog for easy reading! https://fineprintcomic.tumblr.com/tagged/fineprint/chrono

   Please keep in mind that, however hard my muse may argue something or however confidently they make a statement, they can be wrong. It’s my muse’s opinion, and my muse talking, and their perception is skewed.               Do not feel like everything out of my character’s mouth is the truth, or that I’m godmodding. 

for all those curious where they can read my works freely and legally, here you go, enjoy :) my deviantart has most of my works,  and most of them conveniently combined into easy to download pdfs. you’ll need a deviantart account for the mature themed ones like sunstone and fine print.  it’s free as it always has been. this is the main account https://www.deviantart.com/stjepan-sejic (used to go under shiniez but i saw that i can change my name so… yeah XD) and this here is the pdfs gallery https://www.deviantart.com/stjepan-sejic/gallery/79822473/comic-pdfs

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EARTH!!!

Forvo – Alternatively, if you need to hear a local speaking a word, this is the site for you.

I saw this Plympton-animated film at the Woodstock Animation festival. It has all the things I love in it -- Tim Curry and Bowie and Lou Reed and Hedwig, and discovering yourself. So I'm posting it for all the people who will love it to discover and tell their friends about.

❝ did something change? the forest feels different. ❞   ❝ it’s…it’s still alive. ❞   ❝ i heard you. it’s not up for discussion. ❞   ❝ space your shots. speed costs accuracy. ❞   ❝ we do what we must to survive. ❞   ❝ it’s not like you don’t get angry in a fight. ❞   ❝ do not speak again. ❞   ❝ didn’t you hear that? voices. it felt…evil. ❞   ❝ close your heart to their desperation. close your heart to their suffering. ❞   ❝ people… they’re trying to survive too. ❞   ❝ we are not men. we are more than that. ❞   ❝ and i thought my family was fucked up. ❞   ❝ finish what you started. ❞   ❝ smells like rotten eggs. is it still good? ❞   ❝ kill for survival, not for indulgance. ❞   ❝ there is one unavoidable truth you will never escape: you cannot change. ❞   ❝ we all gotta take responsibility sometime, huh? ❞   ❝ slow down. your haste will cost us. ❞   ❝ i need to know if you can survive the journey. ❞   ❝ everything is different. try not to dwell on it. ❞   ❝ find your way home. you are free. ❞   ❝ put as much distance between you and the truth as you want, it changes nothing. ❞ ❝ i will do what i must. leave me be. ❞   ❝ that doesn’t mean you should lie to your friends or family. ❞ ❝ do not concern yourself with what might be. focus on what is. ❞ ❝ you do not want this fight. ❞   ❝ i will rain down agony, every possible violation, upon you. ❞   ❝ um, alright…that hurt a little. ❞   ❝ you see through the eyes of a child. ❞ ❝ you are stronger than you know. ❞   ❝ we fight…until i say stop or we are dead. understand? ❞   ❝ you are right…i do not believe you. ❞   ❝ you think you understand, but you don’t. ❞   ❝ i know who you are…most importantly, i know what you are. ❞   ❝ your anger…you can get lost in it. ❞   ❝ it happens again, you tell me. understand? ❞   ❝ oh, you already know the answer to that. ❞   ❝ i’m strong. i’m smart. i’m not what you think i am. ❞   ❝ your memory was a comfort in dark times. ❞   ❝ whatever it is you seek i do not have it. you should move on. ❞   ❝ long way from home, aren’t you? ❞   ❝ i have no desire to help you. ❞   ❝ i used to dream about getting eaten. ❞   ❝ it is wise to be discreet. ❞   ❝ you are not yourself. ❞   ❝ fight until we stop or we are dead. ❞   ❝ have you ever heard the term ‘tempting fate’? ❞   ❝ as far as i’m concerned, death suits you better. ❞   ❝ would you pardon me please? i need to collect myself. ❞   ❝ this fight is pointless. your struggle is pointless. ❞   ❝ struck a nerve, did i? ❞   ❝ no, wait…i’m not giving up. i just…have to catch my breath. ❞   ❝ a dangerous beast. we’ll take him down together. ❞   ❝ it is so good to see you again. ❞   ❝ can’t believe you’ve lasted this long. ❞   ❝ hurry! i’m slipping. ❞   ❝ only time you talk to me is when you need something. ❞   ❝ you’re more concerned with their safety than our goal. ❞   ❝ i’d bow if i could, your majesty. ❞   ❝ try to find forgiveness, and we can start something new. ❞   ❝ i cannot undo your mistakes. ❞   ❝ it is a delicate balance. expect the worst. assume nothing. ❞   ❝ it sounds like they needed help. ❞   ❝ she meant more to me than you anyway. ❞   ❝ you’ve seen it with your own eyes; you can’t hurt me. ❞   ❝ i just needed answers…but you had to act all proud. ❞   ❝ you only know half the story. ❞   ❝ i’m…sorry for your loss. ❞   ❝ anything you’d like to get off your chest? ❞   ❝ throw whatever you have at me…i’ll keep coming. ❞   ❝ slow and old. you should never have come here. ❞   ❝ think i’m afraid of you? you’re nothing to me. ❞   ❝ we’re going to fight that? ❞   ❝ the fault is mine…and my responsibility to make it right. ❞   ❝ dead things…they have no needs. only wants. ❞   ❝ i am known for my attention to detail. ❞   ❝ i see you’ve been busy. ❞   ❝ ;et me take this moment to tell you what you are about to do is absolutely insane. ❞   ❝ i’ll be keeping my eyes on you. ❞   ❝ i am your monster no longer. ❞   ❝ until our journey is over, one of us must remain focused. ❞ ❝ you know, i really hoped i’d never see this place again. ❞ ❝ i warned you. you would not listen. ❞   ❝ no…you’re bleeding. ❞   ❝ with power comes a big choice. you serve yourself or you serve others. ❞   ❝ be careful where you’re going. there’s no one nice out here anymore. ❞   ❝ you talk too much. ❞   ❝ we will fight it. because you are frightened of it. ❞   ❝ why are there two beds in there? ❞   ❝ will we see people on the road? friendly? will they try to rob us? ❞   ❝ tell me what i want, pain stops. real simple. ❞   ❝ you are going to have to kill me for that to happen. ❞   ❝ just tell me what i want to know! no need for this to get bloody. ❞ ❝ relax. do not think of it as an animal. it is simply a target. ❞   ❝ we do what we please. no excuses. ❞   ❝ you’ve had to kill people before, haven’t you? you’re used to it. ❞   ❝ how did they find me…after all this time? ❞   ❝ i’m not allowed there anymore on account of the, uh, incident. ❞   ❝ hm…thought you’d be bigger. ❞   ❝ you’re sounding more like your father by the minute. ❞   ❝ well, this is it. it’s been an honor. ❞   ❝ do you have any idea, any idea at all, what you have cost me? ❞   ❝ for someone so strong you sure worry a lot. ❞   ❝ uhh…this is a lot of bodies. ❞ ❝ you must be better than me. understand? ❞ ❝ we win because we are determined. disciplined. not because we feel ourselves superior.)❞   ❝ i’m fine. just lost my balance for a moment. ❞   ❝ do not drop your guard. ❞   ❝ you’ve only killed those deserving, right? ❞   ❝ can you kill something that big? ❞   ❝ worry serves me well…and how i keep us alive. ❞   ❝ earlier you said people might kill us. i’ll kill them if they try. ❞   ❝ so we’re going towards the scary singing? ❞   ❝ uh… do you hear that? what is it? ❞ ❝ will i see you again? ❞ ❝ you know my door is always open to you. ❞   ❝ but nobody’s killed a dragon for hundreds of years. ❞   ❝ the road ahead is long and unforgiving… no place for a child. you must be a warrior. ❞ ❝ to be effective in combat, a warrior must not feel for his enemy. ❞   ❝ you’re kinda scary sometimes. ❞   ❝ do not call me that. ❞   ❝ i feel like we can beat anything now. ❞   ❝ to give up this easily, so close to the start… ❞   ❝ you are in your head. let it go. ❞   ❝ unless i’m mistaken, you did all that…for me. ❞   ❝ i’ll kill them if they try. i’m not afraid. ❞   ❝ if seeing me dead will make things right, i won’t stop you. ❞   ❝ never thought i’d see one up close… ❞   ❝ stay by me. touch nothing. ❞     ❝ you are wise for one so young. ❞   ❝ are they dead? …not dead! not dead! ❞   ❝ do not mistake my silence for lack of grief.  ❞   ❝ never leave me alone again. all right? ❞   ❝ i did what had to be done. ❞   ❝ i know you hate gods but you really can’t stay away from them, can you? ❞   ❝ something’s breaking through the wall! ❞   ❝ it does not matter if you fire only once. show me control. ❞   ❝ do not allow yourself to feel for them. they do not feel for you. ❞   ❝ i do not know how to do this without you. ❞   ❝ i’d hoped that you, of everyone, would finally make me feel something. ❞   ❝ steady your aim and breathe in. exhale and release. ❞   ❝ are we lost? should we be in here? ❞   ❝ the path you walk. vengeance. you will find no peace. ❞   ❝ you know i love you. you just can be better. i know you can be. ❞   ❝ you think it’s safer in here?  ❞   ❝ listen to me. i can help. ❞   ❝ why wait to warn me? ❞   ❝ know any good stories to pass the time? ❞   ❝ you know what’s adequate? that footwork. you step in shit?   ❞   ❝ uh…you didnt mean to do that, did you?  ❞ ❝ why do you even care? you could have just walked away. ❞   ❝ if i wanted your opinion, i’d ask for it. ❞   ❝ you left me here. again. why don’t you care? ❞   ❝ that bow’s a little big for you, isn’t it? ❞ ❝ the last of his kind in all the realm and you shoot him. ❞   ❝ and here i thought your kind was supposed to be so enlightened. so much better than us. so much smarter.   ❞   ❝ you will always me a monster. ❞   ❝ what, you want a hug? ❞   ❝ in war, a soldier sees beauty in the blood of his enemy. ❞   ❝ follow down this path and head for daylight. ❞   ❝ finish what you started. ❞   ❝ it would serve you to stop talking. ❞   ❝ you did not think it was important to tell me? ❞   ❝ not a something for nothing type, are you? ❞   ❝ why should a deadly curse stop you? ❞ ❝ something feels strange…we’re heading into danger. ❞   ❝ the gods care nothing for you. (men should not pray to monsters.)   ❞   ❝ the fates…no good comes from them. ❞   ❝ it is important for a warrior to keep his skills sharp. ❞   ❝ trust i will not let us die. ❞   ❝ war was simply no fun anymore, but a rather senseless waste of precious life. ❞   ❝ when i require your counsel, i will ask. ❞   ❝ what i did, i did for you. ❞   ❝ you are too quick to temper. you a rash, insubordinate and out of control. ❞     ❝ i don’t think we’re supposed to be in here. ❞   ❝ you think i’m weak, because i’m not like you. ❞   ❝ maybe i’m just seeing things… ❞   ❝ mourn how you wish. leave me to my own. ❞   ❝ your father can kill. are you going to be able to do that? ❞   ❝ the path ahead is difficult and you are clearly not ready. ❞   ❝ anger can be a weapon if you control it — use it. ❞   ❝ i proved myself. how am i not ready? ❞   ❝ if you’d given me what i wanted, it wouldn’t have ended this way. ❞   ❝ you are hunting deer — not chasing it. ❞   ❝ i don’t believe it. are you…alive? ❞   ❝ are you really going to lecture me about that? ❞   ❝ keep your expectations low, and you will never be disappointed. ❞   ❝ are you the last of your family too? ❞ ❝ you got a real sentimental streak, know that? ❞   ❝ now is not the time for that. ❞     ❝ you were gone for so long i thought that you… ❞     ❝ are you jealous? want me all to yourself, do you? ❞      ❝ hey, do you mind? trying to concentrate here. ❞   ❝ your mother taught you well. ❞   ❝ i can tell you a thing or two about family matters. ❞   ❝ i’ve been to many strange places…but this is a new one. ❞   ❝ you left me alone to fight. ❞   ❝ look at me! look at me! ❞   ❝ don’t you see? they never gave up hope. and neither should we. ❞   ❝ my mother made it for me. ❞   ❝ you killed against my wishes. ❞   ❝ come. no looking back now. ❞   ❝ love and hate are more closely intertwined than you might imagine. ❞   ❝ there is much about me i would not have you know. ❞   ❝ today the winds of fate have kicked up a strange vortex of coincidence. ❞   ❝ okay, there are a few gaps in my knowledge. ❞   ❝ they’re gonna be sorry they picked this fight. ❞   ❝ you can change your path. it’s not too late. ❞   ❝ let me guess…you’re gonna be smug and say we shouldn’t have got involved. ❞   ❝ i defended us. nothing more. ❞   ❝ no. you’ve been gone a long, long time! ❞   ❝ you are right to distrust the word of a god. ❞   ❝ you’ve got some father. i almost feel bad for you. ❞   ❝ so your plan involves a whole bunch of luck? ❞   ❝ well, that was a waste of a perfectly good apple. ❞   ❝ our home is no longer safe. but it will be again. ❞   ❝ well, even a blind pig farts up a truffle. ❞   ❝ when they find you - and they will - they’ll make things difficult. ❞   ❝ there’s only one person alive who can get you where you need to go…and luckily for you, my schedule’s wide open. ❞   ❝ they were just hungry, the wolves. they weren’t mean. they were starving. ❞   ❝ only fire when i tell you to fire. ❞   ❝ no need to explain. not to me. not for that. ❞   ❝ i was just having a little fun, you big grump. ❞   ❝ you deserve better than what you’ve got. ❞   ❝ wow…that was something, that fight. ❞   ❝ you help me, i help you. ❞   ❝ let them go. take me instead. ❞   ❝ you’ve taught me so much. let me teach you something. ❞   ❝ alright. say it. ‘i told you so’. ❞   ❝ truth is seldom as pretty as myth and legend. ❞   ❝ hope is blinding your instincts. ❞   ❝ we are here because of you. never forget that. ❞   ❝ you are avoiding the question. ❞   ❝ you have a talent for destroying things. ❞   ❝ i can smell your grief. ❞   ❝ but…you told me to never go down there. ❞   ❝ i’ve never felt more alive. ❞   ❝ it’s not my blood. ❞   ❝ i’m going to cut off your head now. ❞   ❝ you’ve got a knack for ominous statements. ❞   ❝ this place…it feels like a prison. ❞   ❝ don’t you know when to give up? ❞   ❝ we will handle it. we have come this far. ❞   ❝ i’m fine…nothing to worry about. ❞   ❝ is it dishonorable to grow old? ❞   ❝ the power of any weapon comes from your heart…but only when tempered by your head. ❞   ❝ so unclean. so, so unclean. ❞   ❝ oh, cut it out, princess. you’re gonna get me all weepy. ❞   ❝ do not take your disappointment out on me. ❞   ❝ your anger…you can get lost in it. ❞   ❝ it’s all you talk about, over and over. do something about it or shut up. ❞   ❝ i have a favor to ask. just a small favor. ❞   ❝ check the path and make sure we are alone. ❞   ❝ pain we endure. faulty weaponry we do not. ❞   ❝ that’s it? the adventure is over? ❞   ❝ if you try, i’ll try. ❞   ❝ wow, you’re so stupid. that your father’s doing? or your mother’s? ❞   ❝ behind you, watch out! ❞   ❝ deny it all you want, but you saved me. ❞ ❝ only use this as a last resort. ❞ ❝  truth is more important than kindness.  ❞ ❝ i know every corner of these lands, every language spoken, every war waged, every deal struck. ❞ ❝ it should have been you. you hear me?
