Theory (strip)

Ethan Alleyne

Pixie has left the chat ... and apparently someone explained to her what war is on the sly. This treasonous deed should be investigated.

Margaret Anne Knight

Pixie’s last expression, though.😝💕

This reminded me of a conversation I had with my Dad and Brothers. I was talking about Romeo & Juliet from the 90s and they turned it into a cars and guns debate. lmao!

I like how you post individual and strip, cuz for some reason when I view it on the website the strip works better, but when I view it on the app the panels work better

Phyllis Rayca

You mean the way some of us study every line, every angle and color choice, every word chosen for the dialogue, in this very strip? ;) No worries, it's all good!

I love this! We did this to “the fellowship of the rings” in high school and it annoyed me so much I never read the rest. I was too busy looking for themes to enjoy It!

I feel their is an entire class or lesson in "Letting the watcher overthink." How to form a story in the way that makes the watcher obsess and overthink so they have to keep watching to see if they are right!

Dawn

This is why, more and more, I prefer watching TV alone.

Richard Hopkins

The curtain is blue meme hit around the time that John Ringo was writing the first of his Black Tide Rising series. There's a line in the first book that refers to the blue curtains in a boat because of that meme.

Licia

Poor pixie. Her little seated pose in panel 2 is adorable, is there any way we can get a background just of that without the side cutting her off?

Sleepy John

There's imagination, and there's overthinking.

I got unreasonably sad inside as I saw pixie walk away… the stress and anxiety that writers get just to please the readers… ItS aLmOsT LiKE tHe AutHoR iS tRYiNg To tElL uS sOmThInG!?!??

Emily Elizabeth Buchanan

OK I have to say I love the detail you DID put into the design of the acorn, bottlecap, and paperclip armor and such. Something so silly yet you still drew a really awesome picture. I am impressed. This is coming from someone who wishes they could digitally draw, and who loves heraldry, crests/coats of arms, armory, and so forth. (I draw, but VERY slowly and with pencil and paper)

THIS!! Holy cow, and that's Level 1 compared to French Literature teachers. They are on a whole higher level! My English literature teacher mentioned how at least with the English ones you can argue, talk about what you think. But the French ones he encountered (like the ones from my whole education) will mark your paper down if you don't take their opinions as Gospel.

Cameron Rankin

I blame English Teachers. Book: "The blue curtains were flowing in the breeze as it came through the windows." Teacher: "So from this, we can extrapolate a feeling of depression, as if the Author wanted to tell us about their own life and feeling like they were merely going with the flow." Author: "I meant the Curtains were blue and someone left the window open, Geez."

Cris

Pixie is not impressed 😑....🤣

I totally agree. Reminds me also of GOT where people just went mad for one season I personally loved because I didn't expect too much, it's just TV, I just sit back and enjoy... but when playing this may mean people are engaging in the story, always better than people who always complain everything is boring ahah

I still dream the day Pixie will have her round fluffy head again 😅

AlexKorobeiniki

personally, when i create something I DREAM that people will care enough to theory craft! It means that they're engaging, they're invested!

Christine

You still haven’t touched upon the shipping fanfics…

Mak

Pixie SAME XD

Ard Rí Sídhhe Dragon

I'm sorry to hear that! Pets are family, no matter what some people say!

Ard Rí Sídhhe Dragon

Awww... Pixie looks so sad before she walks away!

Chibi Okamiko

Poor Pixie! 🥺 (my Pixie passed away yesterday. She was a good kitty)

Madeline Cross

Is it weird that I want to know now to?

Stephen Gilberg

I never liked "the death of the author."

Thea Angelico

Oh my gosh I can relate to this. As a kid, every time I told my siblings about the story I was playing, they'd get too into its not-fun strategy and stuff so I'd just get bored and walk away!

Kari Furness

"The curtain is blue because that was the color of fabric that was available, coordinated with the furnishings and wall color, and also fit within the scenery budget constraints" "No no, I'm sure it symbolizes the character's struggle to find peace and reconcile with their family"

Jessica Steele

Omg people do this with books too!!!! They just put wayyyyyyy more thought into it than necessary.
