AIL 🕐📝
A sideblog by the mod of sketchbook-and-tony-adventures for readers to ask meta questions about the main blog, and for me to post concept art and miscellaneous drawings. Not where you ask the characters.
A: Every time someone asks me if the next comic is almost done, I consider killing off Colin the Computer for good.
Q: "Will [character] appear?"
A: No, until proven otherwise.
Q: "Will the main trio (Red, Yellow, Duck) ever show up again?"
A: No. Don't worry, they're fine, nothing is wrong.
Q: "Who is Penny/Tori/Coby/Dandy/May?"
A: Trash OCs. Penny is the pendulum clock woman, and Tony's amicable ex-girlfriend. Tori is the depressed tape-player. Coby is the old computer teacher who was dead for ten years, but is okay now. Dandy is a dandelion teacher that was deleted for second-degree murder, but he's okay now. And May is the talking objects' manager that can manifest into any object, but usually appears as a clipboard.
Q: "This thing happened that contradicted something that happened before. What's up with that?"
A: Adventures in Lurning has a very loose canon. A lot of it was being written as the web series episodes were still coming out, and much of it turned out to be pretty incompatible with with what I had made. So, stuff gets retconned all the time, either due to new official material, or if I no longer agree with something I wrote 7 years ago. The important things that will stay the same are characters and their relationships, but much of what specifically happened might not add up anymore. The idea of it happened, at the very least. AIL was a supposed to be a fun comedy blog and I'm trying to turn it back into one, so lore and tiny little things that might've happened or were said once aren't always entirely important.
Q: "Is THIS IS IT still canon/does it still matter?"
A: No, it's not canon anymore. Coby came back to life suddenly when she woke up in the woods. Colin doesn't like her because he's like those cats that don't get along with other cats. Spinach Can went to therapy and that's why she's doing better.
What do you plan on doing once the plot of adventures in clayhill is over? Will it become just a normal ask blog again or do you plan on ending it once the plot is over? Sorry if this has already been asked!!
After #12, I do plan on just ending it. Now, I'm not going to say I'm never going to ever post again! I may randomly get an idea I really want to do later, or if DHMIS is ever miraculously able to do anything else, that will probably give me new ideas. But I would like to pursue other projects once this is all done with.
Almost done the next part! Then after that, there's only one more part left! You know, the screwed up thing about all of this is that #10 isn't even the last issue. We got two more of these damn things after this one.
why is penny’s go-to strategy to grab onto a body part (wrist, throat) whenever she feels angry
The talking object people don't exactly have the healthiest reactions to anger. Sketchbook passive-aggressively pours paint on things, Tony screams, Colin screams, the Health Teachers murder, Lamp drowns people in oil, etc. So, I gave Penny one as well. Breaking wrists and going for the throat!
I've been contemplating this since this was sent to me. Tori doesn't like being touched, Phonograph is indifferent to it, Dandy's in a loving relationship, Penny and Coby have each other. I guess the answer is May by default. She's like sad wet cat right now.
