This is seriously such an incredible organization you have created!
I look forward to the day they interact with Minty and the others!

I'm gonna apologize for this long message in advance, I just.. wanna take a moment to gush over these characters and the art you've been doing for the last week or so aaaaaaa

Now that the intros are done, I must say I absolutely love this entire group so far! I loved all of the comics and intros you've done, they all have gotten me very invested in the characters. I already really enjoyed a lot of your art and characters, but these comics especially have gotten me into them so much more. They've allowed me to connect to the characters so much more, which based off the first paw-focused art you've posted with Tempest today, has helped make me like the art with their pawbs so much more than I would've otherwise!
I kinda hope you do more comics like these in the future, whether with the other members of the Tempest Collective, or other characters of yours, these were really amazing, you clearly know how to make comics like this very well!

I love the aura Tempest manages to give off in every image she appears in, and I just absolutely love every single facial expression she makes. To be fair, I like most of them for everyone, but every single one for her just looks so good and makes me either smile or giggle a bit, and every moment she's speaking is the same way. Everything I've seen with her has managed to make me smile, and I'm so looking forward to seeing more of her in the future! I may not have said as much on her as the following characters, but I definitely love her just as much as the rest, possibly more, I just don't know how to describe my love for her as well as the others. She's definitely a favorite.

If I'm being honest, I never expected to like Cyan when I first saw her. The type of character she was just one my weird brain never liked much. But she warmed up on me a lot more, which is more than I can say for any other character even close to being like her. I think the way she tried to get Midnight to go on the ransacking mission in place of her, and how she used it backfiring on her to still try and get out of it was what really helped me like her more, and I really liked the smug look she had before that plan failed too as well. Cyan's still probably my least favorite, but the fact that I still like her even as my least favorite is impressive and something that doesn't often happen when it comes to groups of characters I like. I get the feeling I'm gonna enjoy seeing more interactions with her and other characters over time.

Indigo was an easy favorite. I absolutely adore more bashful characters so much, and Indigo is no different in that regard. He manages to fit in so well into the rest of the cast, and I absolutely adore him so much. And the fully happy smile he had during the 4th's scene of his roll call comic in particular was so adorable, especially after he looked so nervous in the one right before it. I also found the way he's twirling his pen (or maybe pencil? Not certain) in his specific image just as adorable too. I can't wait to see more of him. With the way his description mentions how he has a good understanding of how others around him think and act, combined with him having his own personal reasons for joining Tempest's team that have yet to be revealed, there's so much potential with him and I'm so excited to see more.

I've always also had a soft spot for more quiet characters, so Midnight already had the upper paw on that front. Even without a single word, she's gotten me to really like her. And her appearance manages to both be very menacing and adorable, and I especially love the red scarfy as she. If theres anyone who has my favorite appearance overall, I gotta say its Midnight. And I love all the little details with her that can be observed in the art, too, like when Cyan mentions her name actually is Minnie, she looks like she's about to stab Cyan from behind. Or the Substitute doll she has in the room she's in during her first appearance, which is such a clever detail to give to the assassin, and something I never would've thought. And I like how we can see she has various different weapons too to get the job done, seen by her giant scythe, and with the way that you can see that the dagger she's sharpening in the comic isn't the same as the one she's about to stab Cyan with, the second having a more brown color. There's so much impressive attention to detail with everyone here, and I loved that so much, especially with Midnight since it helped show off a bit more of her character. Also, every time I look at a specific facial expression of her's which I can only describe as her letting her guard down a bit, I practically melt a bit. I absolutely adore that facial expression of her's so much.

Okay first of all that 'Ocean sized ego' comment for Azure made me laugh so much more than it should eujgvebe
I really like the usually happy expressions she always has, all her smiles look so cute. And the look she had when the new cannon they were testing went off prematurely. At least Tempest did learn the results from that testing ASAP, although not in the way intended xd I also love how Azure, as the mechanic and inventor of the group, has some cybernetics installed into her, that was a really nice touch, and the fact that her description mentions that it isn't known if she added them herself, or if she was always fully robotic, was an interesting note that really got me more interested in her. I'm definitely interested to see more of her, just like everyone else here, and I'm curious to see what other types of inventions she may have made!

Finally, we've reached my top favorite, Violet! I love the mix-up by having her be a Jolteon instead of a Vaporeon, a nice mix-up I didn't expect, and I love how we got a smol glimpse at her at the end of Midnight's intro comic too, that made looking back through the comics after they were all sent so much more satisfying. Now, Violet is in a similar boat to Indigo, as sweet characters are another weak spot for me. Her sweetness and dedication to being their healer, as well as her being so good at it despite being an electric type helped make her a huge favorite of mine, and I absolutely adore any character who tries to brighten the mood when given a chance. And I also like that if out in the field, she isn't helpless like many medics, the fact that she can still fend for herself when needed was a nice touch. And she is absolutely adorable, although that can be said of literally any of the characters you draw so that comment may not mean as much.
But the thing that finalized her as my favorite of them all was that on top of all of that was the differences she has from a normal Jolteon that both make her cuter and make her look fit a medic even further. I love the softer appearance you decided to take, going for the much fluffier neck fluff compared to the spiky look of most Jolteons. And I absolutely adore her tail. I've always had a weakspot for fluffy tails, but combine that with someone as sweet and caring as Violet, and you got a near-unbeatable combination!

Overall, as you can tell by the 8 or so paragraphs I've typed at least, I absolutely adore the Tempest Collective so much. I am so looking forward to anything you decide to do with them in the future! >w< Thanks for taking some of your valuable time to read this message, and I hope that you have an amazing rest of your week!

Pardon me for not seeing this sooner! But thank you so much for the kind and very detailed comment! :3

I greatly appreciate the time you put into it and I'm so happy you enjoyed the comics and characters that much. I assure you they're gonna pop up a lot more in the future, and I plan on showing off their dynamics as much as I can! I'm sure you'll have plenty of fun keeping up with them once they return.

No worries, your fine! I was happy to just have a moment to gush over the Tempest Collective whether it was noticed or not >w<

I'll definitely be excited to see more of them and their dynamics in the future, that's for certain! They're probably one of my favorite groups of characters I've had the pleasure of seeing~

Thanks for taking the time to answer, hope you have an amazing rest of your week!
