It’s time now to blow things up
and Kaya’s forgotten her power.
Sending a storm into the sky
and bringing down a spark shower.
She never plans her moves
even befuddling her brother
but one thing that rings true…
if a move fails, she has another.
Cleo, dear, it’s time to move;
it’s time to test your luck.
It’s time to hope Kai is fast
or else this is gonna suck…
It’s never good to be the one who made things “suck” for the -healer- in your party! 😉
One : i was sure of it . Read my last comment in the previous strip ^_^
Two : i agree totally with the small sentence in the fourth panel XD
Three : love Drago’s face in the last panel “- Gah ! What she’s doing ?”
Four : …………………… I see the total blow coming ^_^”
I guess you were right ^^
I couldn’t straight out say you were of course, that would have spoiled the surprise :p
Panel 4: “Kaya /equipped fireworks/”
Oh for… I know these things, why do I make such mistakes xD
Thanks for catching that, Jprime ^^
To be honest, I totally missed that until I look just now. Was too distracted with the great art and fun story!
It’s like asking the party healer to heal you only for them to hand you a health potion. But since Kaya’s a mage, it’s kind of asking for a buff and the party mage giving you a potion of bull’s strength or cat’s grace.
Doesn’t make it any less funny, but more than a little confusing.
It’s like in TF2. You finaly see a medic just for him to go battle medic
and in this case, you get explosions in missile form xD
Which in a high fantasy setting are the most boring kind of explosion. That’s right, Kaya used an attack that has an amusing delivery system but it’s pay off it less interesting than if she just used a spell. High fantasy is funny that way.
You don’t appreciate the Kayaworks?
“Make every 31st of October -Special!- with Kayaworks!”
It’s not that, it’s just that in a world where magic is highly prolific explosions by fireworks and bombs have a tendency to lose their punch when compared to the effects of many higher ranked spells.
I find “kayaworks” cute and quirky, but it would be even more amusing if she ended up creating a spell that basically does the same thing but better. And it’s totally in line with her character too, flashy spells with a touch of erraticness to them. They’ll probably have to write a whole book of spells for Kaya’s contributions alone
You certainly have a point; but, I like them -because- they are non-magical. Magic is – The Expected!-
It also gave a few commenters fodder for funny comments that she used her tail to grab them in passing.
Also; the randomness of their flight paths were more assured because they had no support while getting up to flight speed.
My day is one of length
where I test my mental strength
Yet Kaya’s attack
has caught me aback
and given me joy I did lack
And now fitting music https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
haha, I don’t think Kaya is Rickrolling them though xD
God danm rick rolled XD
He got ya xD
C’mon Kaya, if you don’t have any more spells prepared, you should use scrolls. Much easier to carry than fireworks. Why do you even HAVE those?
https://www.twindragonscomic.com/comic/behind-door-number-one/
Oh, right, loot.
Oh well, if you have them, you may as well use them.
Yeah, no good holding on to them and never using them (me in every game xD )
Panel 4: “We’re doomed.” That gave me a good laugh. And Kaya’s evil grin in the next panel is very fiiting.
In the final panel it seems that one of the rockets is homing in on the necromancer instead of the rocks. With all those explosives in the air, you know what you have to do: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg9scNl9h4Q&t=25 .
One small critic point: The jewel in Kaya’s staff seems to have lost it’s original color.
I’m glad I made you laugh ^^
I’ll get that color fixed later :p
Last panel: ANGERYY. (No, I didn’t spell Angry wrong, it’s a meme.) While fireworks do have the advantage of saving those precious, precious magic points, I hope you at least aimed them decently Kaya… they seem a little haphazard at the moment. Bad news for whomever they hit, friend or foe. Keep up the good work Robin. Many a great facial expression in this one page. You’re somehow improving what I already didn’t think had much left TO improve upon. Your art skills are worth of the history books of webcomics my friend. Stay awesome.
Thanks Alpha ^^ The fireworks are chaotic evil, they can’t be controlled xD
I don’t know about those history books, but I try to improve my art whenever I can ^^
But.. Fireworks are so pretttyyyyyyy!
Love the “We’re doomed.” Now I’m going to spend much time figuring out who said it!
Actually sounds like the game itself is saying it, because it’s not in a little box like Benji’s comments. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Panel 3 is my favorite (Kaya looks so cute! I don’t know why; but, I always like it when a little girl (Kaya still qualifies, right?) sticks her tongue out like that when concentrating hard on something.).
Panel 5 closely follows 3 for favorite panel status. 🙂
Kaya’s “Okiedokie” and semi-salute in panel 2 are quite amusing with that expression and the general story context. Also reminds me of a scene from the old “M*A*S*H” tv show.
p.s….
Very nice job of lighting in the distance shots, Robin. Definitely gives the “dimly lit cave” effect!
You also did a good job of consistency with the perspective when you switched from the viewpoint behind Kaya in panel 1, to the similar viewpoint from behind the necromancer in panel 6. Maybe Kaya should look a bit smaller in panel 6, but a very good job anyway!
Thanks for all the praise ^^
You seem to analyse the comics quite well. I love reading what you think about them 🙂
Then I guess I should spend more effort in “thinking”! (Maybe it will get easier with practice? 😉 )
Thanks! Just trying to “help”. 🙂
“Aren’t you a magic user?” Well they should have said that when she pulled them out instead of after they set off.
Yeah, maybe they should have been faster :p
kaya rolls a 1, all of the fireworks misses the boulder and one of them hits cleo( the rest of them chrashes into the walls)
I bet more about the upper fireworks hitting the boulder ^_^
Oh no, let’s not hit Cleo xD
What is it that they say about “sufficiently advanced technology”?
Yeah, but still :p
I love how Cleo (that is her name right?) doesn’t give a crap
Just rolling with it :p
Big sigh; “What’s that silly dragon done now?”
Yay replies:)
Oh dear lord… Kaya isn’t going to be satisfied until she’s destroyed everything isn’t she?
She has already established that she refuses to destroy anything she considers cute.
“Be cute, or Be destroyed!”
“When it absolutely, positively has to be destroyed overnight…
“KAYA!!”
you know i allways wanted to try the D@D bord game but where would i get one and how will find enuf people that are interested in playing to be worth it?
Well, if you find one and are in the Raleigh, NC area… 😉
Maybe she should put a spell on the fire works to seek the boulder. Or that was a distraction while she blasts the boulder
Magical fire works
Wasn’t there another page here before?
Okay, so…Kaya’s going with the “Gandalf” approach to delivering an explosive effect…
I had a feeling the fireworks would show up again.
I’m with Kai and Rex. ’nuff said.
