Panel 1:
Announcer: Welcome all to the early graduation exam! Today we have something special on the fire. Literally! Fire versus Ice! Right here, right now in the grand exhibition stadium!
Panel 2:
Announcer: Now let us summon our critter.
Panel 3:
Announcer: In this here corner, the frost haint, Airish!
Panel 4:
Nith: Haint?
Pai: Yeah, the creation of a very high summoner.
Panel 5:
Pai: It's like the solid ghost of a sleeping spirit. Has all of the skills of that spirit, but its only as strong as the summoner who calls it.
Panel 6:
Pai: Basically, just a copy. The spirit thinks its dreaming, but if its all beat up here, it will just wake up unharmed in the spirit world--
Panel 7:
Announcer: And introducing Coffinshaker, the mage of fire!
Panel 8:
Pai: Woah! Who's that tall drink of water?
Panel 9:
Ell: Who? Coffin? Are you serious?
Panel 10:
Pai: What? That's your friend? But I thought you all said he was a mess.
Ell: Yeah... Just give him time.
Panel 11:
Pai: I don't know what you are talking about! He looks perfectly (interrupted)
Panel 12:
Pai: Wait. What are you...
Panel 13:
Pai: Stop, don't do--
Panel 14:
Pai: no! no! NO!
Panel 15:
Ell: Ah... There we are.
Awww, she’s gonna give him up over one flaw?
heh, don’t worry, he’s got more flaws than that… but uh, things will go better later on… just thought this would be a fun way to start off a little romantic tension. can’t have everything all rainbows and butterflies right off the bat. >)
hmm… now that I think about it, it would’ve been more fun to do this on valentines day week… oh well. XD
Well we know that, but she doesn’t!
Um, I think the first strip actually had rainbows and butterflies.
But definitely an amusing way to introduce Coffin to our new friend. (I already forgot her name.)
lol! you are right about that! and they too were set on fire…
hmm, think it was Debbie or something. >)
So I went back and reread the comic from the beginning, and noticed three things.
There were no rainbows, so I was half wrong there.
Coffin has never said a word. Didn’t notice that before.
And out new friend’s name is Pai. I think. lol Might be Pal? Not 100% sure though.
Hmm… guess there wasn’t one… oh well, next time though.
Yeah, Coffin doesn’t say anything actually. I thought about this quite a bit early on and decided it would be more interesting (not to mention challenging) to make him the silent type. Not sure if his silence needs a whole backstory or not, but everyone seems to get the gist of what he’s thinking. Most of the time anyways…
Dang fonts… so hard to read sometimes! sigh, I love that font but it’s not really clear with some of the letters. anyways, her name is Pai with an “I”. though for pretty much the whole time I just called her character “girl” cause I was, ya know… too lazy to give her a proper name. >)
Giga Coffin FTW!
Blue’s adorable, as usual ;D
Giga Coffin FTW!
Berry’s adorable, as usual ;D
heh, glad ya liked! think I’ll make a valentines day card out of that… hmm…
Poor Berry has an even stronger reaction to coffin’s personal hygiene and dietary habits.
it’s like um… recycling… sorta?
I can’t believe i’m late! AGAIN!
for shame! lol! XD
Was that a flaming boogie I saw in the last frame?
*note to self* Must try to light boogies …
I think it was one of the hearts on fire.
Cuz it looked like the other one had broken in half.
lol, yes… it’s the heart running away screaming and on fire. though I do endorse this idea of experimentation with the flammability of nasal mucus. for, um… science.
That should become a new spell for Coffin.
“Flaming Booger Flick”
I love Berry!! I want a stuffed plush of him to snuggle with. Hehe
heh, well I’m working on getting the 1st issue of What’s Shakin’ finished here (expect more details soon), so maybe after the cons and what not and I get good sales maybe I’ll be able to afford a small run of plushes. I’d really like a coffin and berry plush!
lol just lol
=D
>D
Hey CS, what’s your hotmail? d^_^b
lol, no hotmail… best way to contact me directly is via the form on the “Contact” page.
Thus begings the the first onesided meeting between scarecrow firemage and orchish fangirl haha must read more on this
I’m positive that if Coffin knew he would be meeting new friends he’d behave a little more civil… then again, he ate a boogie in the center field of a stadium, so… perhaps eat the boogie with a silver fork and a nice Chianti? >)
I still love Coffin! And my he looks very dashing today
indeed. *puts on monocle*
>)
Last panel- So, boobs get smaller with dissapointment?
quite magical things they are!
err… yeah, I was going for a sort of “deflated” look… um… ok, there’s just no way of phrasing that without it sounding dirty… thanks to a certain person! lol! XD
