Rewatching Adventure Time and MAN. Martin sucks. Just... so much.
So, back to misery.
More of Krok's bullshit: he claims to need to destroy the diner so he'll have more time to achieve his goals. He is already immortal and time travel exists. No reason has been given why he couldn't just bounce back to the dawn of time and keep working from there. In fact, the idea hasn't even been brought up.

Draw Everything June: Day 10
Look, I'm sure there were more appropriate matches I could have used for this gangster/gun moll pose trio, but I had the stray thought of "this is Minako and her two best girls, isn't it" and that was it, I was done for.
Good for you, Mina. Live your best life.
The colors really popped here to a degree I absolutely was not expecting. I ended up using a red that really packs in the pigment and the contrast between the red and the more muted figures is really exciting to me (reminds me of some vintage anime art, but I can't put my finger on what!)
Draw Everything June: Day 12
Fisheye in a cute little summery dress with a parasol! The pose had such a dreamy energy that I thought suited them so I went for it :) I had fun really focusing in on the details of the face in a way I haven't for some of my other paintings this month.
I need to practice my coloring (both digitally and with traditional media) so why not use my old line art of NeverNowhere's most seductive bird? @legendlarkpod, I'm really hoping Chorp makes more appearances!
Nowhere nonsense

Bingo HELLO??? Insanely strong character introduction. The little voice, the little babushka, the antagonizing accusations while also trying to ingratiate himself. Soooo fun. Also the others freaking out and trying not to fall in love. It’s just amazing, can’t wait to see how he fits into the group. Nevernowhere still killing it
For some reason, this was all I could see during their introduction:

“When you get back to Shadowfell, tell everybody I said… thank you.”
One of the most touching moments from the Not Another D&D Podcast. You were a good one, JV.
Went to the rose garden with @jupebox last week and got to hang out and leisurely sketch in the shade.
I sketched these in person and painted them later when I got home. The greens are a bit off, but the purples are just right!

Man, if you really want to beat yourself up, go to the pool for the first time in years and spend the better part of an hour throwing yourself off the high dive. Oof.

The Clewiston Test, Kate Wilhelm (1976)
Cover by Carl Lundgren, 1981
According to the back, Ann Clewiston found a perfect painkiller but then... there are ~COMPLICATIONS~
Let's see what happens!
These characters are married. It is just meant to be morning banter.
This was written in the 70s. By a woman.
Still. Goddamnit.
"What you look like is a damn sexy blonde in a pretty frilly thing, and if I don't rape you outright in the next few weeks, I'll be a candidate for sainthood."
We're five pages in, do we really need to know that he likes sex in the morning while she likes "to go to sleep wet between the legs"?
Is this going to be a story where those facets of their characters are relevant to the plot?
Hrm.
Might be nothing, but a new character has been introduced with "she had become a militant feminist in the past year and consequently most of the people in both departments tried to avoid her whenever possible, which made her still more aggressive."
Might be nothing. Might be a criticism of her, or the rest of the lab. Have to see where it goes...
It is SO early, but something about this is giving me vibes of The Koiec Corollary which... man, I hope not.
Might just be that they're both from the 70s. Yeah, that's probably it. Probably.
...
About 30 pages in (out of about 220), let's sum up so far:
Anne and Clark are a married couple of chemists. Anne was in an accident a few months ago that broke her leg, and is still recuperating while the company they work for is pushing to move ahead with human testing for the compound she came up with. The same day, one of the test chimps savaged an animal handler in the lab.
And since it's the 70s, everyone's internal monologues are kinda bitchy with a soupçon of grossness and horniness. (eg. "On Anne's behalf he should protest, or comment, or belch, or do something.")
Oh, goodie, two pages of bloviating about how love doesn't really exist.
Thing is, this might tie into the as yet undiscovered side effects of the unspecified drug and be plot relevant, or it might just be filling pages in something written in the 70s.
I need to remember the title of the story about the doctor who came up with a method to determine when you would naturally die with 100% accuracy
Want to compare authors and publication dates
50 pages in, we've spent a lot of time getting to know everyone's hang ups, we've seen Anne and Clark keeping secrets from each other, we've seen everyone in the R&D department agree that rushing to human testing is a bad idea...
We've also seen one (1) chimp attack, no human testing yet, and no other complications.
I know this is longer than the 120-150 page pulps, but it's not THAT much longer. We're a quarter of the way in, we need some plot. Pick up the pacing!
70s fiction just feels grimy and resentful, most of the time, y'know?
It's not gross, and it's not hate, but it is, specifically, unpleasant.
I'll be honest, I've never broken a bone. I've especially never broken a bone in the 70s.
So I don't know what to think is weird about how Anne's recovery is being handled - the timeline, how involved she can be in her work, how much she can get out of the house... any of it.
So on the one hand, I am all for "focus on yourself and recovery, NO, do NOT get dragged back into the office a moment earlier than you need to be" but on the other hand there's also "she is an adult, her work is not physical, she can be kept up to date on her passion project, hell, she could work from home probably, don't exclude/exile/infantilize her"
I'm just saying, it's a broken leg, it's not a heart or brain condition where an instant of unexpected stress could kill her at a moment's notice. TALK TO EACH OTHER.
75 out of 223 pages, and it's been one (1) chimp attack, one (1) chimp glaring at a specific handler, no other complications, and multiple monologues about Anne going stir crazy from staying at home with a broken leg.
At this point I'm starting to worry the story is going to be Anne snapping and killing her husband and the painkiller stuff goes absolutely nowhere.
Forgot my phone while getting my oil changed, so I was able to make some progress with minimal distractions and it helped crystallize why this book is so boring: it is like 85% internal monologue.
There is a crumb of action, or plot development, or dialogue, and then the story spends a page and a half or so on a characters thoughts and/or feelings before jumping to a different character. And it's usually the same thoughts or feelings. We're not getting plot advancement or deeper insights into the characters, we're just filling pages.
