I have renamed the comic’s blog handle to @pmdttas because I have decided to create a second blog for open asks and future art contests! This blog is going to be called @ask-pmd-ttas-gang !

You will be able to ask all available characters questions at any time! There may be times where the ask box closes, but I will announce that if it happens!

I will also host future art contests for fun things like character cameos in the comic and prizes such as custom characters or art from me!

“You mean you just have a basket of Sitrus Berries lying around?!”

“That’s incredible! Apology accepted!”

“You know, a lot of people I’ve met have told me I have an unusual coat. I never thought much of it, since it’s just how I look!”

“But my cheekmarks can actually glow in the dark, isn’t that cool?”

“But yeah, my dad always said my coat pattern is part of what makes me special.”

“Pfft, did you make that word up? Sounds so silly.”

“But I’ve never heard of a being like that. I didn’t even think there were creatures aside from Pokémon.”

—

“What do you mean “why is my dad a Pelipper”?”

“I mean, he works at Pelipper Post Office, and he was raised here so… not sure what other Pokémon he would be.”

“Oh, I never knew my mom.”

“Sometimes the other Pelipper in the office talk about my lack of a mother figure. Apparently my dad struggled a lot when I was little balancing taking care of me and delivering mail.

Sometimes I wonder if things would’ve been easier for him if my mom had been around…”

PART 2

"How did Wilbur and Pandora meet? Sorry if that question goes into spoiler territory so here's a different one in case you don't want to answer that.

What is each character's favorite food; is it a type of gummy, apple, or berry?

Love the comic and your effort into it so far. Hope you continue to have fun with it"

“How did I meet my dad? Well, I guess I met him when I was born? That’s kinda how parents work I guess.”

“As for my favorite food, I LOVE Sitrus Berries! Sometimes my dad and I will cook Sitrus Cobbler and share it with the office! It’s great!”

“I’m a fan of Sitrus Berries, but I’m also partial to Chesto Berries. They remind me of where I grew up!”

“I like Kelpsy Berry Milkshakes from Spinda’s Cafe! They always get me pumped before going into a dungeon.”

OOC here, I’m working on a short comic to expand the story for Pandora. The more I thought about it, the more I considered just doing a comic that would update (hopefully semi-regularly, if life didn’t get in the way).

I want to know if I should just post it here and keep asks open (they can just be separate from the story), or if I should make another side account just for the comic.

Thank you all so much for voting on the poll! It gave me a feel of what you guys wanted when it came to asks and the upcoming comic!

While the poll was pretty fairly split, there were more people favoring that I keep the comic on this blog, so that’s what I am going to do!

Here are all of my official plans:

- The comic will be hosted here. I don’t have a definite schedule yet. Being completely honest, this is my first time doing a comic (I’ve experimented in the past, but nothing ever really got off the ground). This story has pretty strong planning so I will try to update at least once a month. I’ll create a more official schedule later on!

- If I ever go on hiatus, I will pin a hiatus post to the top of the blog. Hiatuses will usually be due to family/work related conflicts or vacations. If there is a hiatus posted, please do not send asks about when I will be back. You can ask if I’ll be back on the hiatus post, but I’d rather keep questions like that out of my ask box.

- I’m going to retcon (sorta) the first two asks on this blog. They are still relevant, but mostly to later in the story. So asks should be based on the current timeline (spoiler: don’t send asks about the prologue unless it’s to the OOC, because they likely won’t be answered til muuuuch later).

- While asks will still be answered, the comic will take priority over asks unless they are asks for the OOC (me).

- This entire comic is an experiment for me! Meaning I might change up my style, how I do backgrounds, panels, etc. Please understand that this comic is mostly for me to have fun with it and share the story, so artistic consistency might sway! That being said, I might make changes if I find a way to produce comics faster but still keeping the level of quality that I find to be appropriate. It’s all up in the air, but I hope you’ll stick around!

- I’ve already finished the prologue (it’s a bit short, but that’s intentional just to give readers a taste), but I will not release it until I’ve finished the first scene of Chapter 1. I want to keep a buffer of one scene between posting when possible. Meaning, scene 1 will release after I finish scene 2, and so on!

- Any additional side art of the characters will be posted on my regular account @rising-in-the-ash! I might repost it onto this account if I feel like it.

- It should be noted that I don’t plan to make any money off of this comic! I’m doing this for fun! I’m an adult with a job and other responsibilities, so my real life will take priority (this shouldn’t be too shocking lol). Also, making money off of a property I didn’t technically create has some legally grey ickyness. If you want to support me, you can commission me!

If you read all of this, bless you, I know this was long! I’m very excited to share this story with you all and I hope you will enjoy it!
