Stop demanding friendship, Kaya,
when you were just proving a point.
It’s about more than just cash, Cleo,
don’t punch her nose out of joint.
The faltering footsteps of failure
are slithering behind like a tail;
It’s up to you it it catches you two
or if laughter unfurls like a sail.
If not enemies they’ll be friends
and quite the mirror-image pair.
Would it really be beyond them
to team and give poor Kai a scare?
Well, you’ve definitely made a strong impression on Cleo, Kaya. She now realises you don’t want her money, unfortunately, she may just think you’re crazy.. with is sorta true.
This prompts me to ask how resistant to fire Kaya’s scales are. Can she hold a matchstick while it burns all the way through? Can she grasp a torch by the fiery end? Can she plunge her hand into a blazing bonfire to rescue a marshmallow that fell off her stick?
They have some degree of fire resistance, being fire breathing dragons and all. She can’t just put her hand in fire like it’s nothing, but she has picked up a boiling kettle when she was little with no more than an “auch! that’s hot!”. The burning matchstick is probably possible, but it’s gonna be hot at the end :p
Hey Reynard, sorry your comment was up for approval for such a long time. I have comments on auto approval so I didn’t check pending comments. I approved your comment now and I’ll keep a closer eye on the pending comments from now on 😀
No; it must have the serial number. Since each bill has -4- “small corners”, each with the denomination, if it did not require the serial number then you could easily cut up a bill and trade each corner for a new, -whole- bill.
Yeah, but she threw it away thinking it would save her the grief of Kaya sponging of of he like her so-called “friends” do. Once she realized that wasn’t Kaya’s motive, then the bill again had its own value; it wasn’t buying her respite, and it’s still a hundred-dollar bill.
I strongly suspect, though, that a hundred-dollar bill is far more common in Cleo’s life than it is in Kaya’s. She may be a touch miffed at Kaya for the manner of the demonstration, but it’s not likely to actually hurt Cleo to lose a C-note this way, especially if it introduces her to a true friend.
This strip has a couple of really nice looks. Cleo is normally not all that expressive compared to Kaya & Kai, but it comes out very well in panel five. Kaya is very good in both two and five, but I really like her in panel two. Pulling her head back towards her shoulders in two is a -very- nice touch often missed by comic artists. Also; I really like the perspective in panels four and five! Good work, Robin!
You do very well, Robin, and it’s plain you put thought into these. And I’m not saying these things just to flatter you; I mean them! “I’m not interested in your mon…” 😉
Well, few things can cement a friendship more firmly than chocolate shared. Besides, once Cleo sees Kaya’s face as she says “Cleo, you could have some of my ch- cho- choc- chocol- all of my life’s blood! in reparation for the hundred-dollar bill I burned,” then Cleo is almost certain to appreciate what a sacrifice that is, right?
Cleo: “That’s it…US Secret Service! You’re under arrest for defacement of US currency!”
Kaya: “Wait…you’re a federal agent?”
Cleo: “I was trying to bust those punks for two months, but you have to go on a friendship streak and nearly blow my whole investigation!”

Dude ur amazing haha
And I thought I was good. mine is crap next to yours.
Do you just make these up on the spot? You are legendary at doing these poems!!!!!!!!!!!

She prefers the term silly :p

Can she bathe in lava? 😀
Just like Aisha Clan Clan.

On the plus side, if enough of it remains, it could still be used.
I think such items are still valid if the serial number remains.
These might be helpful:

Is only one small corner enough? :p
No; it must have the serial number. Since each bill has -4- “small corners”, each with the denomination, if it did not require the serial number then you could easily cut up a bill and trade each corner for a new, -whole- bill.
I think Cleo is forgetting something: She did effectively throw that money away as though she didn’t care about it. …And now she’s trying to save it?
Yeah, but she threw it away thinking it would save her the grief of Kaya sponging of of he like her so-called “friends” do. Once she realized that wasn’t Kaya’s motive, then the bill again had its own value; it wasn’t buying her respite, and it’s still a hundred-dollar bill.

Rich people like to chase money? xD
I’ve come to the conclusion that greed is a disease that we don’t want to cure. Although female psudo-dragons seem to be remarkably resistant to it.

Thanks, I really appreciate your views on the art. I Always try to make it the best I can ^^

Time to make amends Kaya. Invite Cleo to your place and offer her… gulp… your choccolate.
Noooo, not the chocolate D:

Burning Franklins in the name of FRIENDSHIP!!!
I guess that in this case, it’s not all about the Benjamins.
Ahh, don’t you just love the spark of friendship?
