Monday and ungodly hour. This calls for all of us hating everybody together. And maybe making a club.

But maybe they can find him another pair of spare glasses!

Btw Nicky, I know what you are doing. Don't think I haven't noticed Vince missing for the revelation that Mandy's been kidnapped! Don't think that will stop me! I KNOW MY SHIPPING RIGHTS!!

Had to insert the shipping into a forum post. It's been awhile. Remember last year with that other forum and we actually got into posting regularly, back in the days before the ground opened up to swallow us whole before eventually spitting us out months later?
Yeah, good times.

YEah, sorry about that, really I don't disappear for too long, I just get covered in mucus.

Also, I got a tiny bit sucked into writing stuff, I started a small serial thing, but haven't got far beyond sauerkraut.

So...

So Vince kidnapped her?

He's tying her to some railroad tracks right now isn't he?

Yeah, I was speaking as one of the disappeared, so I understand.

Sauerkraut? Crap be this another turn of phrase I do not know?? >.<

Haha, now I would claim it were Vince if not for the kidnapper, anonymous though he was, still nonetheless not being him. Though it's still perfectly possible Vince hired the guy. Heehee, railroad tracks, melodrama Vince... ^.^ He certainly does act the prima donna, though. But what I meant is more denying me Vince's reaction to the news. Which, if comically obvious and exaggerated, would be Vince thusly smooth: "WHAT?! WE GOTTA--Um, I mean, great. Can we pay them to keep her?" [unconvincing smile]

Now I have this funny feeling Vince is going to be showing up on my paper in the future with railroad tracks... Or Nicky could do it for a vote reward!

Sauerkraut is pickled cabbage. It happens to be the current topic in some serial writing I'm doing, since it was eaten in Northern Europe to keep scurvy at bay during winter and this guy hates it.

Also, national novel writing month! 50,000 words in 30 days! I can do it, I beleeeeeeeeeive in me!!!


Also...

Haha! Sucks to be Vince!

Ahh, hate...tasty...
Certainly tastier than sauerkraut. Uck. I concur with the guy you're writing about...and GOOD LUCK with novel month! Whoo! I believe in you, too!
Either that, or I subscribe to the theory that misery delights in company, and I like having other people set themselves impossibly difficult creativity deadlines, too...whichever, good luck!

ANYway...you guys are awesome. I'm sitting here cracking up picturing Vince and the railroad tracks and Mandy in a puffy dress and him twirling one of those horrible little villain mustaches...yeah, good times, great imagery...yes, mamelakazam, I'm thinking I need to doodle some vote incentives now...curse you, and thank you. I love you guys.

As for Daniel...maybe werewolf germs is how a section gets moldy? Possible...

...oh, mamelakazam, you're kind of going to hate me. But maybe not. Well. You're our official shipstress of Vince and Mandy, you have to understand being able to love and hate someone at the same time, right? Oh well. We'll see how it goes.

Unless, of course, I decide to scrap the whole storyline and just have Vince tie her to some railroad tracks instead. Don't think I'm not tempted!

Thank you! I might have something to read at the end of November, or I might have gone PROPER crazy.

I want that vote incentive...

Well, I'll try and get it up for Wednesday's update. It's certainly been long enough without a proper vote incentive, hasn't it? Bad slacker artist, very bad...

Here, I distract you from my lack of supplemental materials with the funniest thing I've seen all day: http://shazzbaa.com/index.php?c=215

Stop saying slacker like it's a bad thing! It's a life choice, nay, a way OF life, for some.



Ooooooh, I'm gonna need some cheering on for this novel...

You should so hide moustaches around the comic for Vince to get paranoid about.

They're out there...

Somewhere...

Bwahaha, awesome!
Poor Vince, so tormented...so beset...so entertaining...

And for you, aido: Hip hip huzzah! You show that keyboard who's boss!

Yeah, what's wrong with slacking? Don't you know name-calling within the internet is a slippery slope?

Yeah, I did know what sauerkraut is (meaning I recalled pickles and disgusting), but the mention confused me--I was picturing it's been transformed into a turn of phrase, for instance "I haven't gotten far beyond sauerkraut" could be synonymous to "So far I basically have jack." But you have cleared it up for me now! I too agree with the guy in the story.
...Can we start using sauerkraut as a turn of phrase now anyway and confuse the hell out of everyone? Pweeeaasse? [insert use of puppy eyes here]

OMD, NaNoWriMo, please don't hurt yourself. Haha, I have friends that do it every year and it's pretty amusing: "So, how goes the novel?"
"... Nice weather we're having today!"
Which you know is a lie because it's November and sometimes it freak snows. But yes, definitely good luck and you can do it! Oya! Sometime I guess I'll do it, but I think I'll wait till I'm out of college--jobless, broke, in debt, that good stuff that come right after graduation.

Okay Nicky, one, yes, of course I understand love-hate relationships, but two: WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO PULL?!?! ARRRRRRGH!!! THE SUSPENSE!!!!! The person roiling around on the floor is me.

Yes, I think mustaches by themselves should just start appearing... like one's been taped to a bookshelf of Daniel's... but they're just there in the background, overall ignored with nothing said about. Mwahaha. And no "poor Vince." He so deserves it.

And apparently because I suck--or, more accurately, because my wireless sucks and hates me trying to post--a few posts back I thought I mentioned the successful transport of the chibivamps. But apparently I failed. So yes... um, if your inbox is kind of chewed apart by now, that's why... they aren't especially patient, I'd guess, and the sedation drug necessary for mailing does wear off sometime.

Werewolf Watusi! I hope Dolph knows this dance.

The chibivamps arrived! I love them! And the other pics, too. They're awesome!

I'm going to pop them up on the website when I post the next update, if that's all right with you? After all, what good is it traumatizing Vince and Dolores with such pictures if the whole world can't share in it? (Don't worry, they still don't know where you live, so you're safe from bloody retribution...at least for now.)

And hahaha, yes, sauerkraut must so be used as a turn of phrase now! I like it. Best use for sauerkraut I've ever heard of...

And that "slippery slope" is me trying to mentally pry my bum away from the computer and over to my drawing papers. Which clearly is not currently happening, as I continue to type. C'est la vie. Or at least, c'est la vie de slack. I'll just continue enjoying all that "good stuff that comes right after graduation" instead.

You enjoy rolling around on that floor, there. All I'm saying is, there may not be much material coming up that'll tickle your shipping fancy. Or maybe there will be, now I come to think of it. We'll just have to wait and see...hang on, let me go grab some pillows to scatter around so you don't hurt yourself, mmkay?

Oh and P.S. totally drew the mustache-railroad tracks-kidnapping. Make sure you vote Wed 'cause I'll be putting it up!

Ahahahaha!

Aidan O' Reilly, master of the memes!!!!

Procrastination, I'm going to miss you, but I shall be soon living with someone striving to be a doctor of english, so I'd better find something productive to do myself...

However...

Chibivamps?

Can has?

Chibivamps will be shared just as soon as I have permission from the artist.

Good luck with that productivity! Sounds dangerous.

Oh crap! Sorry! I read your post and was going to post back later... and then Wednesday snuck up on me. Crap. I was, uh, taking it as read they would be posted. (Although that was for the chibivamps I can see how the others would be in question.)
And yes! Makes sense to post them then. Especially given how long internet-electronic things can take so it's easier just to mess with it when already messing with it.
Mustache... so close!

And they are now posted in the Gallery! http://darkwelkin.com/gallery.php?gid=081106114222 Sorry it took a little longer than I thought. Kind of had a long day and then got distracted...but I was distracted by working on the Hallowe'en sketch, so that's okay, right?

I'm going to put some serious badass into this Nanowrimo and then see where it takes me, I think I have, at the very least, a pretty novel idea.

Edit:
Oh GOOOOOOOOOOD I only just realised what I wrote there. I'm sorry, really I am. Ouch, the pain. I'm gonna go whack myself in the crotch with a bag of oranges now.

Yeeeaaaahh, that was truly awful. "Novel?" Really? Gah. Well at least you took responsibility for it.

On the comic, i'd liek to point out this:

Trevor: It keeps him out of trouble.
[Cut to Vince twirling mustache with Mandy tied to railroad tracks]

Just saying. I mean what is Trevor thinking?

Also, I will probably appear dead for this week because it is crazy-insane midterms-all-at-once week. YAAAAAY.

Oh, Aido, really? Really? Ouch. All kinds of ouch.
But you are forgiven, because you felt the pain too. Not that I think that's any reason to abuse oranges...but the suckers do like to squirt stinging citrus into my eye when I try to eviscerate them, so what the hell, they deserve it.

Oh, and I'm glad you have a...a...good idea. We'll just say that, shall we? Yeeeeah...good luck.

And also good luck on your midterms, mamelakazam! Enjoy your week of pretending to be a vampire. What with the being dead and all, you know. Just don't glitter and you'll be fine.

Regarding Trevor...yeah, clearly "thinking" is not so much what he is doing right there as he is being very, very wrong.

Just so no one was confused, I did make sure to include in the page's comment box a clarification--you know, for legal purposes. I wouldn't want anyone to mistakenly take Trevor at his word and assume that Vince was, in fact, not in or causing any trouble. That would be erroneous, and might lead to said reader unwittingly ending up in trouble along with or by emulating Vince, thinking that he was in fact being sensible and trouble-free. (Piece of advice: never emulate Vince. It is a bad idea.) I am after all a responsible writer, who does not want to mislead anybody.

I would go on for pages about the amazing that is the Halloween pic, but I'll shorten it for my sake.
Just so you know, I choked. And asphyxiated. And died. Because it was that. fucking. hilarious. I mean, you didn't just draw them! You made it moving! You went all out!
So very made of win.

hahhaha awesome. I saved that picture to my computer ;D
