Stella gets to the mall and befriends the Ball Python along the way, with many, many frustrations on the way as typical in the Dream Dimension.

This is more or less the end of this particular arc. Not certain whether I want to go on to Desperado's attempts to become human, Stella's continued adventures, Ronnie going on a journey to the False Island, or something completely unrelated but in the same universe and very much connected to these characters. Probably the last one since I've latched onto a character this week and want to write about him while he's fresh and exciting in my mind. I'll eventually return and do more with Krystal, Van Buren, and the Thanatosassa and mall locations, this mostly just serves to introduce the characters and general locations (I also need to do nicer drawings of them).
