#pulse asks

The concept has been evolving for years, basically I came up with this story idea in 2012, I'd give it a shot, and then I'd shelve it for a while when I felt it wouldn't work anymore. For PULSE!, I ended up finding a way not only to make this old idea work, but also ways I can incorporate other characters and ideas from other stories I've made and dropped in the past. So these ideas ive had bouncing around in my head for over 10 years at this point, but for specifically the story of PULSE! I've been developing it on the side for three, maybe four years by now?

I wish I could say it's because I'm just such a smart and thoughtful guy that I didn't wanna start drawing pages until all the details were PERFECTED, but in actuality I started working on the comic around the same time I started having wrist issues, so it just takes me a while to draw things lol.

let me guess. is it meursault

“No. There is nothing going on—”

“…”

“Hm… my relationships with my coworkers. Sure, I can indulge you on this.

Yi Sang, to start, is someone whose company is definitely pleasant, for me. I couldn’t tell you why. Perhaps it has something to do with the sympathy I feel for him, I suppose? N Corp is… nevermind.

And then, there’s Faust. She was the one who approached me to have me join Limbus Company. We do chat occasionally, as I do with Yi Sang, but she is certainly more knowledgeable than I am. I do like her, though. It’s nice to have a conversation with a fellow scientist.

Don Quixote: Where do I even begin? She is definitely a character, for sure. I cannot truly put into words what my opinion is on her. She’s… loud, for one. Always rambling about fixers. Nothing I would know about. I only hope she stays out of trouble.

Fourth, Ryōshū. I’m going to be honest: She is somewhat intimidating. I can never wrap my head around her … what did she call it? SANGRIA? … I don’t quite understand her. But she does make the right calls sometimes.

Meursault is someone who I haven’t gotten very close to. I do respect his work ethic, but it confounds me that he follows every order without any sign of hesitation.

Hong Lu… there is something strange about him, in all honesty. He’s quite… No, I can’t put it into words either. I do suppose I find his behavior interesting. And that jade eye reminds me of… no, it’s probably not that, is it?

Heathcliff was someone who I used to find a bit unpleasant. However, he’s proven himself to be quite the opposite of what I expected. Very intuitive, to my surprise. His and Ishmael’s bickering does annoy me a small amount.

Ishmael is quite reliable, but not the most amicable. Her knowledge of the Great Lakes is quite impressive. Perhaps I could inquire her about Whales sometime. Perhaps she might know something about my predicament? It’s a long shot, however.

Rodion reminds me of someone I used to know, but only just a little. I’d say they share only one thing in common, however. … But there is no use reminiscing about the past. Otherwise, I will admit she is somewhat fun to talk to.

Dante. Our manager. At first, I will admit I was a bit worried about whether they’d be able to effectively do their job, but… I will say, I am very thankful for that clock of theirs. It would be a significant problem for me if something were to happen to them, so I hope they remain capable.

When I first met Sinclair I was a bit concerned. He seemed… quite anxious. That has absolutely changed. I must give credit where it’s due, he can definitely fight, and he seems to have established a connection with Ryōshū. If it wasn’t for him, I might have struggled greatly to understand her.

Outis is also reliable, seemingly very skilled in battle and in intuition. However, she’s… very intent on being in Manager Dante’s good graces, it seems.

And finally, Gregor. To put it frankly … I find him a little… how should I put this… pathetic. He is a capable combatant, but his acting skills are… subpar. I’m also not very fond of bugs. I do not hate him, though.

And… that’s about it.”

3 — ”Describe… my…?”

“… Oh. W-Well. I suppose I could… tell you a few things.”

“They were… a colleague of mine, once. Not anymore. … we had a falling out. I haven’t seen them since…”

“And then there’s… him…”

“…”

“… No. Nevermind. Forget I said anything.”

30 - “… I would have done it all over again.”

“I would have ended it, once and for all.”

“How do you…”

“…”

“… She was… my senior. That’s… all you need to know.”

“… and she ruined everything.”

Waaa waaa waaa?

“A… little animal, on the floor of my room. …Is that a pearl?

I would read it, but unfortunately I find myself without the means and technology to do so. More importantly…”
