As far as unpleasant awakenings go, this is right up there with waking up with a cramp in your leg. Dream ruined, plus Kai looks like his condition has worsened while he slept. Poor dragon.
Noble Sir Kai’s not shocked but rocked
as Kaya appears to say
“Get up, you slovenly waster,
you’ve been asleep all day.”
His dream is snatched away from him
without kissing the Girl.
Now he’s going back to finish
will he give fate a whirl?
Kaya is concerned and loving,
Kai should mark down the date.
As he goes back to the tower
has she made a new fate?
sounds like my brother. siblings can be annoying but you gotta love em 🙂 btw im also frenchgirl. i didnt know what name to use. so i have used bothe.
Ahhh, the gift of consciousness. Of course, now everyone’s going to forget what an epic story you just told ;-);-);-)!
(The title of the page could be from anything, although I assume you kept it kid-friendly. Maybe one of the Matrix movies?)
(Those are 3 winks, by the way.)
Back to reality.
To bad for Kai, he was just about to get his treasure.
I highly enjoyed the dream sequence.
It probably would have just been full of chicken nuggets anyway
Given where the treasure was coming from.
Chocolate coins
it could have also been just a juice box. i know kids like those. it may have been cotton balss seeing as she makes clouds. i think it is a toy though. maybe that dragon plushie of kais 🙂
Kaya, you should know not to wake a sleeping dragon! You’re one yourself! And of course we have the classic bait and switch. Snatch away the reveal just before the audience can see it. Dang it, Robin! xD Oh well. Looks like this chapter might be starting to come to a close now that the dream sequence is over. I wonder if he’ll tell his family about it over dinner? Either way, hopefully that dragon biology of his will clear up that cold soon enough. Another great strip Robin, I especially loved Kaya’s look of confusion at the end. Definitely sticker material. I eagerly await the next page, and a very Merry Christmas to everyone reading this comment who celebrates it! As always, stay awesome!
Imagine if the treasure was just the same crystal duck from the dnd game they played
Ah, cliffhanger, my ol’ frien’
// Kinda off-topic but I was wondering, wouldn’t it be fun to create the twins, Benji and the others in the Sims (with mods)? It would be interesting in my opinion 😁
Ah of course, the last second wake up call! Dinnertime too so he slept through most of the day during that dream. So I guess that’s it for this chapter then? One or two more? Or is it only halftime? Like next strip it’s the next day and now it’s Kaya’s turn for the whole sick day + weird lucid dream?
You know, in some parts of the world people eat dinner at lunchtime. Not really an American thing, though, I admit.
My southern grandparents called lunch dinner and dinner supper. But if it was midday kaya would still be at school.
Yeah that’s part of my thinking. I suppose if it is what a lot of us Americans call lunch time, well I know some school districts let their students go off campus for lunch so maybe if the twins don’t live too far from school or Kaya got a ride then it would make more sense from my perspective. Still, think I’ll stick with this being early evening unless Robin says otherwise. Besides, not too uncommon for people to sleep a whole day away when they’re sick.
My understanding was that “dinner” was the Big Meal of the day, regardless of whether it was at noon or evening. Different parts of the country, and even rural as opposed to urban upbringing, make a difference in when that “dinner time” is.
The reference is from All Dogs Go To Heaven.
Looks like the chapter is coming to a close – unless Kai continues the dream the next time he sleeps.
As for the title reference, I’m gonna guess and say Alice in Wonderland.
Awww , drat : no reward for Kai ; BAD , BAD KAYA . I guess Kai hates you now , Robin ^_^”
I guess this chest belongs to Maetel (Galaxy express 999) : so much opened but never seen the containing X
Kai’s priorities are understandable, seeing as he was having fun in his dream. That said, his stomach will probably set the priorities anew in a few minutes.
Well, now he has to see if “twin telepathy” will allow his real world sister to meet the wonderful mini-Kaya
I speculated in one of my comments above that what if tomorrow it was Kaya’s turn to be sick and have the weird lucid dream. Now imagine Kai getting ready to head off to school and he goes to check on Kaya one last time first. After seeing that she’s sleeping and he’s heading out the door of their room Kaya mumbles in her sleep: “Scarabeth, that’s a neat name.” Man the whiplash Kai would experience there!
“Dont you just hate it when that happens?”
Yeah, and that happens alot.
Of course it happens a lot: if noone wakes you up in middle of dream, you won’t REMEMBER dreaming.
Hmm… Wise words.
DRAGON QUEEN WHY U REPLY TO EVERYTHING I SAY
I’m not a hundred percent sure why so many people are assuming the page title to be a reference to something. Did I miss an announcement on the previous page that this was going to be referential? It’s not like “time to wake up” is a phrase that’s uncommon in the real world. It could be anything. World of Final Fantasy, SAO: Ordinal Scale, half of the Zelda series, Bravely Default…
It’s the image alt-text. “Let’s see if you get the reference from the title of this page :p”
I keep forgetting this comic has alt-text. Why do I keep forgetting this comic has alt-text?
I am amused that, in the last panel, Kaya looks more intrigued by Kai’s treasure than sorry for the fact that she apparently caused him to lose it. 🙂
Maybe she can invade people’s dreams to steal their treasure, like a friendlier version of Freddy Krueger.
Treasure is one of them magic words for dragons!
Poor Kai. I wonder if this is the one time when someone can go back to the same dream.
Also, I don’t know why, but Kaya’s confused face is entertaining and aesthetically pleasing for reasons I can’t place, and has been since I started reading the comic.
Robin is very good at facial expressions and body language.
…hmm, I wonder how a “no dialogue” comic by Robin would turn out (possibly through the vote incentives after the current chapter of JA) just a possible challenge to tell a story without saying a word.
I don’t know about a whole continuity, but three or four pages just to connect things wouldn’t be a bad idea. Or maybe as pages of Gamer Dragons if the gag-per-strip format is better suited to it. If Bill Watterson can do it, I see no reason why Robin wouldn’t be able to if the desire arose.
Merry Christmas, Robin! (Well, it’s Christmas yet where I am, don’t know about the timestamps on the site)
This is why dreams need autosave.
Hey you, you’re finally awake. You were trying to- What? What Treasure?
