The underground robot fighting ring! God, talk about a story that went some unexpected places. Corpse Witch turned out to be an ACTUAL VILLAIN! Bubbles turned out to be more than a one-note gag character! Yay shows up and does Yay things for the first time! Sometimes you have one small idea (Faye needs a new job) and it ends up completely altering the course of the story. Writing serialized fiction is weird.

For a long time I had sort of shied away from the robot stuff in the strip- I was more interested in the mundane day-to-day lives of the human cast. I think this arc might mark the point where I realized I was having a lot of fun exploring the sci-fi aspects of the comic, and made a conscious choice to spend more time exploring it.

As I write this, I�m still trying to decide on whether to do a big time-skip and jump straight into Cubetown stuff when I get back from this break. The comic�s pacing is so slow and detail-oriented that it can be tough to get actual time to pass. The idea of jumping ahead and seeing where people have ended up in the intervening time has a lot of appeal, creatively speaking. But watching Marten and Claire establish themselves up there would also be fun. WE�LL SEE I GUESS

Also I think I accidentally updated too many times this week? Whatever WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT
