The Dreaming: Hard At Work... [Dec. 19th, 2006|08:26 am]

[Current Mood | busy]

The Dreaming v3: Up to chapter 5 for the pencils, and almost finished inking chapter 3. Am pumping it out like there's no tomorrow!! Meanwhile, Volume 2 is out, it's on Amazon.com, and the first chapter preview of book2 is still up here. Oh, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year, by the way. I don't get a break, so no festivities for me. *sigh*

Zelda Fan Manga: Here's the second part, while the previous 5 pages is here. As per the previous poll, option (b) won out, and you can see it in all it's glory.



----------



----------



----------



Voting for this poll ended on the 25th December. The winner this time was again (b), though (a) got a fair number of votes and for a while, was neck to neck. The next page is up already on DevArt, while the options and votes for "Right now, Link is thinking:" are as follows:

  • She asked for my arm, so I should give her my arm. (22 Votes - 33.8%)
  • I shall sweep her up in my arms and carry her up the stairs! After all, she IS injured (so I have a GOOD excuse). (28 Votes - 43.1%)
  • If she needs fresh air and sunshine, she probably needs exercise too. I shall escort her up the stairs, but she is to climb them alone. (9 Votes - 13.8%)
  • She should stay here, as Princess Ruto asked. This is Ruto's domain, after all. (6 Votes - 9.2%)

You may not have realised when you voted, but the last poll served a real purpose. It was to determine Link's base personality. For the curious, I have made a list of the voting options, including what would have happened if that option had won out, and what Link's personality type would have been.

Option A: Get all teary-eyed and emotional (12 Votes - 14%)
Result: Link gets all teary-eyed and emotional. Zelda gets all teary-eyed and emotional. Ruto couldn't flee the room fast enough, so she gets emotional too.
"Earnest Warrior" Link: The most idealistic of all the Links, this Link is very open with his emotions, and very serious about his pursuit of truth and justice. While he knows that he should probably exercise more emotional restraint, he knows and appreciates why he feels the way he does, and considers it a positive attribute. He gets on best with the ordinary folks, and always puts their welfare first. Unfortunately, there are people out there who tends to take advantage of his nice, giving side, and Link finds it hard to say "no" to their requests, even if he knows he's being taken advantage of. He also has a tendency to take other people's business on as his own, which, curiously enough, also makes him the best physical fighter out of all the Links. The fact that he cares so intensely also means that his endurance and stamina is higher than the other Links. This Link is also the least interested in adventuring, with the most appreciation for the simple life.

Option B: Bow his head, gallantly kiss Princess Zelda's hand, and greet her with a gentle smile (53 Votes - 61.6%)
Result: You're looking at it.
"Romantic Soldier" Link: This guy has emotions like everyone else, but trusts his head over his heart. He is the most strategic when it comes to fighting, and also the most emotionally-guarded of all the Links. As a result, he is always polite and affable, but there's no telling what he actually thinks of something or someone. This is a great help when dealing with sectors of society he may not necessarily like - his understanding of protocols and good manners make him the Link that gets along best with nobles, aristocrats and the wealthy. Certainly, he gets along fine with the ordinary folks as well, but he's holistic enough to see that the common folk tend to be at their happiest when the ruling classes are doing a good job. Not particularly idealistic, this Link has an appreciation of all the greys in the world, and deals with all of its complexities by following the knight's code of honour as much as he can. At the same time, he's also most likely to be a smooth talker, and to use his looks to his advantage. He's a guy who's constantly sizing people up before he even speaks to them.

Option C: Smile in relief, pull up a chair, and slap her on the back (14 Votes - 16.3%)
Result: After Link slaps Princess Zelda on the back, he'll be immediately slapped by Ruto on the head. Didn't he hear her say that Princess Zelda has been injured?! Don't slap injured people on the back until you know what's wrong with them.
"Laid-Back Adventurer" Link: This Link enjoys saving the world, but the travelling and adventuring parts are also highly enjoyable. This Link has wanderlust, is something of a risk-taker, and gets along well with just about anybody because, well, he's just an affable guy in general. In terms of personal relationships, he's probably the most shallow of all the Links, and the least-likely to become emotionally attached to something or someone. That's not to say he has no beliefs or ideals. He does have the same set of core beliefs as the other Links, though what he really loves and appreciates is the diversity of the world he lives in. He just loves experiencing it. As a fighter, he is the most fearless of all the Links, but not necessarily the most courageous. He's the guy that assasins can never track down because he speaks a dozen languages and knows all the local customs of whichever place he's already been to. An experienced bargain hunter, this Link has loads of street-smarts, and deals best with tradespeople, wandering merchants, travellers, thieves, bards, and the like.

Option D: Forget Princess Zelda!! Let's hit on Princess Ruto!! (7 Votes - 8.1%)
Result: Anyone who behaves like that in such a situation is bound to have a weird sense of humour. He'll be rejected by Princess Ruto, and will annoy both princesses. He'll then go on the charm offensive to win them back.
"Oddball Swordsman" Link: This Link has an appreciation for the weird little moments in life, and that's just putting it nicely. Sure, he saves the world too, but don't expect him to act like a hero or even a swordsman. The number one thing people will remember about him is his strange sense of humour, often on display when you least expect it, and tempered with a mild dose of charm afterwards (so people won't blacklist him from their parties). People have no idea how to react to him, or whether to take him seriously, because he doesn't SEEM to be the kind of person who would have such a personality. In fact, he is normally a quiet guy. Why he has such a prankish sense of humour is a mystery, even to himself. Out of all the Links, he has the greatest appreciation for the banalities of life, and hangs around some very strange people, mostly for the shock value. Oddly enough, when he is motivated to care, he can form very strong emotional attachments, the strongest of all the other Links. It's possible that deep down, he's the loneliest of all the Links, and feels that loneliness most acutely. As a fighter, however, he is unrelentingly creative and full of surprises. Very apt for a guy who's life seems to revolve around doing the unexpected. This Link gets along best with circus performers, crazy inventors, fortune-tellers, and various other weirdos and outcasts. It's his appreciation for the off-beat.

Congrats on the second vol. of The Dreaming. Sorry for the late post, I had just picked up the second volume about a month ago after being away for five months for Basic and AIT and my first time shopping after home I saw it in the store of a local comic shop where I tend to get everything. Needless to say it was the first among my small stack that I bought that day to get my manga fix.
I can't wait for the third volume and wish you the best of luck on all you do. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Crazed Fan of The Dreaming

(Link)

I just wanted to say that the dreaming is one of the best horror mangas I've ever read! :O Luckily for me, I bought the second volume (which happend to be the only one) from Borders. I live in LA and I'm not sure if it was a big hit or not, but there's always just 1 or 2 of the mangas on the shelves, it was kinda hard finding it. XD

Just a little question about book 3, is Trevor going to be in there? He mentioned that his phone and address was in the art catalogue so I'm guessing that he might show up again? ^^;

I'm curious about what Millie told Amber and how Millie told Amber at all. O_o There was puddles of water on the stairs so maybe her ghost? I wonder why Millie died but the rest of the missing girls didn't.

Ok, I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what you're trying to say, I think you might want to rephrase somethings because I can barely read what you're saying. O_o

I don't think Mrs. Skeener was chased by the missing girls, why would she be? If she took the axe and the photo and it looked like the dress disappeared too, she couldn't be chased by the missing girls either. And what about the coffin and the girl who was put in it? I'm still wondering why all the girls are coming back and why the school was cut off from all communication. It's going to be interesting how 'the dreaming' is all going to end.

Thanks. :D I'm glad you enjoyed it. And I'll know if it's a big hit or not when I see the royalty reports - so who knows? It's that big a deal for me, though the amount of fanmail I've received has doubled in the past few months. Maybe that's a sign? :P

And to answer your question, Trevor won't be back at all, I'm afraid. Book3 occurs entirely within the space of a few hours, so no, he won't be back. :(

D: Aww, I was hoping he'd be back for just a little while, maybe just a phone call from Jeanie. ;D Oh well, is the idea of a small 1 or 2 page manga in the dreaming with Trevor and jeanie in it too much to ask? xD;;; Horror and romance always attracted me for some reason.

Jeanie barely knew about Mary Spector in the 2nd book when Ms. Anu showed her the Newspaper clippings. Gabrielle was the one who told Jeanie to say Mary Spector for the mirror dare.

:/ No she was the one who made Jeanie do the dare with Mary Spector in the first place, it was the condition Jeanie had to do in order to hear the story that was "similar" to twin-sisters.

That person that was hanging upside down had no face and the girl being chased wasn't wearing the same dress as Mary Spector. That's what I read, I don't know how you came to the conclusion of the girl being chased was Mary Spector and the person with no face was Mrs. Skeener. You might want to type with correct grammar because I still don't understand what you're trying to say. :/

...that doesn't make any sense. Amber had dreams about people chasing her with knives, she can't see them, but she knows they're there. The girl with no face wasn't chasing anyone with an axe, they said someone was but they never saw who.

no amber said a girl with an axe was running next to her (i am sorry did i word it wrong)but couldent see her face. and in the first book she is wereing the same dress just like the faceless girl. but whats with the panting of the girls having tea but the faceless girl looks shy or is ploting there death. (ping an idea)what if the bush lands was the girls hide out it was a place were thay felt safe but something bad happend. because it looks kinda like the brush land. what do you thank (yes the twilight zone my favrot horra and its a maruthon)hora*

...how could the girl look like she's shy or planning death when she doesn't even have a face? Amber didn't say a girl was running next to her, she said someone was running behind her with an axe.

What do you mean by hide out in the bushlands? Why would they do that? It makes absolutely no sense.

Not exactly crawl but stand near Amber's bed.

Remember what Schala said? No one is crazy enough to go to the bushlands alone and "be themselves." Why would they need to "be themselves"? They're already fine without problems and besides, that's not the case either. :/ I seriously don't get what you're trying to say. Perhaps spelling correctly would help me?
