Not Gone, Just Having Issues

General
The next comic is coming as soon as I can finish it. There are just some difficulties in the way:
1. Coming up with multiple frames’ worth of positions for the next comic which aren’t just reusing the same art, and then actually drawing them in a way which doesn’t absolutely scream either “this character could only pose like that if they dislocated a limb” or “these characters are incredibly off-model”, is straining my meagre artistic talents. (Also: the sketch comics a while back? With sketches it’s really easy to put together two characters who are vastly different in size, because you can hand-wave your way through positioning difficulties. Trying to actually ink the same poses and pin down everything brings those contradictions to light very quickly.)
2. Early next week I once again have to be awake at a vastly different time than I have been lately, and I have to do a bunch of chores in advance, so I’m spending more time than usual feeling too lousy to draw. Somehow this blindsides me every time it happens.
3. Plus I seem to have gotten some kind of mild food poisoning, or something akin to that (now recovering).
