Huh, so each fruit has a full-on entity to them?

Yep.
Actually doodling the page with teh explanation right now~

That's a detail I like, the spirit has Whiskers, while Celia lacks them. Good way to tell them apart without being overboard

the main differences are the longer hair, a bigger chest, the sharper eyes, the one missing standing up strand of hair and yep, the whiskers~
Didn't even plan on them, but Celia's design just luckily worked out to create that detail now x3

that character is very cute

she'll also be very cool very soon~

So is she Celia from the Future?

nope x3

Must admit that I am curious, I love that style of yours and wondered if you have some kind of videos or such in how you draw or maybe stream? It could be awesome to watch how you do it and perhaps learn a bit from it :)

Ha, I knew I had already seen this somewhere before you sent the message x3
But yeah, unfortunately not.

Haha I guessed that I am busted 😝

But again no problem, will still look at that awesome art of yours and enjoy how you develop the story. Already super hyped for what comes next ^^

Alternative universe Celia then ? :o


_{love that angry effect btw xP}

she got Celia in a lot of trouble after all :p

True that xP

All that dialogue leads to some lovely world building though!

just wish I could do the pages faster to make more world building and story progress x3

I like worldbuilding scenes, they're a lot easier for me to follow than action sequences

I think that has a lot to do with people's art style as well. In a lot of mangas that I tried reading, sometimes my eyes literally cannot figure out what is happening in action sequences cause everything is just a blurry mess. So when I have these kinda pages coming up I wanna make sure they are easy on the eyes as well~

I love that 5th panel

hehe, thank you~

i really missed this story.so happy to see it make a comeback😊👍

thanks a lot~ trying to doodle more pages again~

You know, I love that shot of the two of them together with the fruit. And your hatred of dialogue aside, I am loving what we're learning..!

I big part of why I just don't like adding the dialogue is also because SAI doesn't have an option to add text at all x3 So I gotta type everything in f-ing Paint, copy paste, and copy paste some pre-made speech bubbles and merging them together xd

That...seems like a huge pain, and an oversight of basic functionality. How frustrating!

Oooo, that's an interesting detail about the fruits~ Like there's a conscious entity bound to them~

Reminds me a lot of that idea I had for a noncanon spinoff a few years ago XD I remember I asked you if you like fanart and stuff, but I don't think I actually told you much about it to keep the implied plot more of a surprise X3 so basically you just kinda casually confirmed one of the major ideas I was playing around with for that X//D maybe when I have time to get back into doodling more I could try getting back to that~

Come to think of it this kinda explains how people who are already born anthros/drifters would be turned into those monsters~ Seems like trying to put a second anthro soul into a body that's already anthro, forcing too much animal into them and replaces the humanity with beast~ Like a standard unchanged human body is the only proper vessel for the fruits

This is pretty close to what it comes down to actually, kudos for figuring it out~

Oh, that's pretty interesting...

Well, Celia surely "never asked for this" x)

At least I can't remember any questions like "Ey gurl, want some floof?" x3

"What in tarnation you tryin' to do, you birdbrain? *crunch*"
"Just doin' my duty, Sheriff!"
"Oh, you and that itchy trigger-finger o' yours..."

a reference that went over my head x3
