No new incentive this time!
Now, I have a kind of big deal heads up for you guys: I haven't talked about it a whole lot, but I've now confirmed that next week I'm gonna be moving in to live with my grandmother to help her out, and Runewriters will go on a pretty intense hiatus while I'm living there.
I don't know all the details yet - I don't know if I'll have a page for you guys next week or not, but I'll definitely have a better idea what's going on, so come back next week and I'll let you know what's going down. ;u;
Just what I was going to say. We'll miss you, of course...

Thanks so much, you guys. ;u;

AAAAAAAAH THAT SECOND LAST PANEL IS UBER THUMBS UP. I bet Xira is like "Jonan is a bit different to how I thought he'd be >.>".
And it's no problem at all about the hiatus, you take all the time off you need. :)

In a similar situation myself; family takes priority. Good luck!

Aw, thank you, and good luck to you as well! ;u;

Helping grandmothers is always a valid excuse. Be well!

Thank you very much! :")

Love Tareth's face as she realizes Jonan is willing to let her help him walk! Good luck with the move!

Eeeee thank you very much! *u*

Awwww, he looks like he's being protective of her. Or maybe he's just being like "gotta keep my assistants from associating with possible riffraff".
You know, next to Jonan, it's easier to tell that Xira could be 15. I think the problem before was simply that we only had Tari to compare him to, and with her being so short, she looks young and thus makes him look older.
Have fun at your grandma's! I hope things go well and that she's alright. =)

(omg I love the idea that Jonan is thinking of them as his assistants
JUST CAN'T GET GOOD HELP THESE DAYS)
But that actually makes a lot of sense! Tareth is like me and looks way younger than she is, so Xira definitely doesn't seem like he should be two years younger. JONAN IS JUST THE OPPOSITE EXTREME
And thanks so much! ;u;

Good luck with the move and your grandmother!

Good luck with everything. :)

Ahhhh thanks so much to all of you! ; u ;

I'm not sure... is the hand on the shoulder thing a sign of wanting to protect her or an acknowledgement that he can rely on her?
posted at 8:27pm on January 7th, 2014
I think either (or both) is worth being happy over. It's certainly more willing physical contact out of Jonan than we've ever seen out of him.

It definitely seems more like a, "wait, wait, let's not just repeat the same mistake all over again" or maybe that's a "okay fine, you were right the first time about the hands, though I'm loath to admit it".

(I'm not gonna lie, one of my favourite things is people trying to decide what Jonan's thinking xD)
posted at 7:37pm on January 11th, 2014
Good luck with the move, and with/for your grandma! We'll be here when you get back. : )

Aw, you guys are so cool! ;u; Thank you!
posted at 7:32pm on January 11th, 2014
Aww, that's alright. Good luck, Shazz! :)
Slowly, slowly, Jonan is learning his lesson, lol. But is this a +1 increase in intelligence, or in wisdom? Hmm... perhaps it's just a -1 in arrogance hahaha!
posted at 10:58pm on January 7th, 2014
THAT MIGHT BE THE MOST ACCURATE DESCRIPTION
(nobody else has an arrogance score but Jonan's is so high he needs one)

Of course family > comic and I hope everything's okay with your grandma!
posted at 1:36pm on January 8th, 2014
Aw thank you! Nothing bad has happened specifically, but she could really use another person there, so that's what I'm doing! ; u ;

Aw. Best of luck to both you and your gran! Let us know if there's anything we can do.
posted at 4:34pm on January 8th, 2014
Oh gosh, thank you! ; u ; Thanks so much to all of you for your support, it really means a lot!

Good things are worth a wait, and this, this is most certainly a Good Thing.
All the best to you and your grandmother. :)

Ahhhh gosh thank you so much, this is so kind to say! ;u;

Good luck Shazz- you've been working really hard, so get some time to yourself, too. ^^
posted at 10:30pm on January 8th, 2014
Aw, shoot, thank you so much! ; u ; Hopefully whenever I come back I'll be ready and rarin' to go!

Good luck to you and your grandma! I hope everything's okay (or will be soon).
posted at 7:37pm on January 9th, 2014
Ahhh thank you so much! Everything is okay right now, and I think it will be very good for both of us. ;u;
posted at 7:42pm on January 11th, 2014
Best of luck to you and your family! You can be sure that we'll be waiting for when you come back!

I don't comment very much due to not wanting anyone to think I'm a dork, but I want to say I've been reading this comic for a long while and enjoying it so much (I also loved your journal comic). Thanks for sharing it with us, as it shines as a personal work as well as a high polished one. :)
That said, take as much time as you need. People before things, and family are the best people. I hope 2014 shapes up to be a good year for you and your Nan. :)

PSST everyone-who-is-not-Shazz! As a Shazz-Is-Awesome-Even-On-Hiatus gifty thing we should all try to remember to keep voting for Runewriters through the whatchamacallit until she gets back =D

hi,
thanks for the story so far,
good luck

Jonan seems to be giving her the shoulder-squeeze of "be careful, I don't trust that guy"... and she is all like "aww, you do care afterall"...
posted at 10:25am on March 9th, 2016
Jonan looks all angry and protective and I love it. :') He's not completely heartless! *confetti*

Ahh, I can see why you'd be busy... Well, family matters are a priority over comics in this case. Good luck with that! *thumbs up
