So tempted to draw the first panel of the next strip in a Star Wars lightsaber duel mock-up, but I don't think it would fit Amanda's personality. Selkie'd love it though.

Color coded mayhem!! I don’t normally do this because I’m silly and forgetful, but by request I thought I’d share here the beta version of this strip that was up as a placeholder while I got the coloring finished.
I think Felix made an impression on Selkie
Was going to say "Sharpie" instead of marker, but (A) I dunno if that brand name is used outside America and (2) I've got a pattern of parody-brand-names I'd like to stick too but didn't want readability of the joke to get obscured. So, "marker".
Andi also has an in-progress tattoo of Gilgamesh Enkidu and Humbaba on the small of her back, and two others in non-kid-appropriate places.
Not sure how Selkie would get a tummy tattoo of a farmhouse pond.
Sorry folks, but today’s strip is gonna have to be blue lines for now. I’m going to try and get it properly outlined and colored sometime this weekend. My apologies for the low-art day. -EDIT- Done!
She's forgetting the part where magic fairies fix everything forever.
I failed Headroom 101 and had to tweak dialogue. Some of it was mildly longer.
As some readers pointed out correctly on the previous strip, Selkie wasn't aware of the GameKid's smashing. It happened after she'd left.
In earlier strips Todd's head and Amanda's head were drawn very similarly, but over time Todd got a bit longer and more... adult-y. Obviously they resemble each other but it felt strange after awhile to draw a late-twenties man and an eight year old girl with exactly the same face shape. Some things stayed similar between them, though.
The rainbow speech bubble has been in my back pocket for about four years now.
Meet Steve, everyone. – – – – – Just wanted to mention again, that I will be attending the Artist Alley at Anime Central this weekend, at Table G05. I’ve also compiled a second Selkie book to bring along, which[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It occurred to me halfway through this that this makes the second time Grandma and Grandpa have been written as being unavailable for joining the function du jour (first time being when they had a previously arranged party to attend and couldn't babysit Selkie during the coffee incident). I probably don't strictly NEED to specifically state what activity they are undergoing that prevents them from joining the current arc, I just hate the idea of them being absent without explanation. Plus, hey, meet Steve. Bonus.
