I hope it's clear what's going on here. If there's confusion, I'll try clearing it up, but I really try to make everything understandable in the comic pages. In my opinion, a comic that needs the author to explain everything in their posts below the page is a bad comic. I don't want this to be a bad comic.
Can I point out something? Kay is short for Keijina, and Keijina is the girl Ranu was talking about earlier, and Amidon was describing in the beginning (you know… “one green eye and one blue eye…”). Yeah.
Wasn't I just ranting about an author and how they're NOT supposed to do stuff like this? Eh, I'm an idiot sometimes.
I'm quite proud of how the coloring came out on this page. I think the only reason is because I tried something new with coloring stars and such, which gives it a much more professional air. But that's just me.
Third panel is awful. Ranu's cheek is way too rounded.
On another note, due to a long and complicated set of circumstances I won't be able to color any comic pages for awhile. If you like, you can read more at the “Gallery” link at left which takes you to my dA site. Thankfully, a brand new super cool colorist comic artist called Soronuume of “Codename Duskfire” (http://www.drunkduck.com/Codename_Duskfire) is coloring the next page for me. And I mean… Gah! She is so awesome at coloring. Check out her stuff.
There are a few more banners available in the Links section, both for 1Q and other comics. New additions to the links section are “Our Lives in Roja” and “Codename Duskfire,” which you already know about. ;)
If any of you Drunk Duck artists that are in the links section already have banners for your sites, I can add them in the “Banner” section. That way, you can have two links to your site on the same page. That's nice to know, isn't it?
Cheeko out.

Holy crap, I can't believe I missed this page last time I checked Drunk Duck! :| Crap, frickin' dial-up... *Sigh...* :( *Reloads page...* Aww, that's sad... What happened to Kay? Maybe it's mentioned in an earlier comic and I just don't remember (I have a selective memory).

Wow I really have to say it is great :) ...and I agree with Sly the page was really clear - except the blue eye - I needed the rant to see it =) mjkj

...Is it just me, or does some of the linework look more pixelated than usual? On the flip side, I love the design for Kay's face, and I got what was going on.

I saw a sunrise over the ocean. What struck me the most about such a sunrise is that the ocean was a brilliant turquoise, and all the breaking waves were black instead of white. xD That was just cool... This page reminds me of that memory. I understaaaand! *waves hand* I know what you mean about not having to explain stuff, too. TT TT I am so uber paranoid of that so many times... The stars are perfect, mayte. ^____^ I really love that sky! Is very pretty.

Wow, Cheeko! What a touching page! And very understandable, too. In fact, it was a good thing you took the risk in storytelling and told it that way, because when readers realize what's really going on in the last panel, it's twice as sad.

Ah man, now I just want to be there and hug that one, sad, sad, puppy. *Puppy eyes*

Aaaaaaw.... *dies of cute/sadness attck* This page looks really, really good. Really good. And I totally understood what was happening without any explanation, so good job. ^_^ Hm... I am tempted to offer to color one of your pages. But doing so when I don't know if I have the time isn't fair... Gr.
