Happy Valentine’s Day!! Anything The untamed please!! Love your work!! (Hopefully I make it lol)

Lan Wangji hears of Wei Ying's marriage to Jiang Cheng and feels nothing but relief.

It means she's safe.

It means Jiang Cheng is safe as well as Master Jiang and Madame Yu, that the Wen's attempt against the Jiang has only succeeded on the most hollow of fronts. The Wen now control Lotus Pier, but thanks to the plans made by Wei Ying and Jiang Cheng the majority of their disciples escaped, their civilians have been instructed that to obey the Wen is not a betrayal, and now the leaders they attempted to kidnap and control have been lost to them.

Their cores are a loss. Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying being required to step into the roles of sect leaders so young and so suddenly is a tragedy, as it is a tragedy that Xichen's ascension to sect leader is happening in a time of war rather than a time of peace.

But he has always known that the place of Wei Ying's husband belonged to Jiang Cheng. It has always been understood between them that one day she would stand above him in the cultivation world - at Jiang Cheng's side. That it's a place she both desired and coveted and has spent her life eagerly preparing to take.

Wei Ying is now Madame Jiang.

His only regret is that he was not there to see it happen.

Rebecca finding out you are only 2 years older than me is absolutely mind boggling to me. Like logically I knew that you weren't that much older than me, but I thought it was by like 4 or 5 years. Any who, I loved your most recent zine!!! 'Twas very funny

i get this a lot! i think i just seem very tired all the time and also have general old man tendencies (not in a fun quirky way but in a i love to fish and always smell like liniment spray sort of way)

Wait I’m not caught up on the Twitter wedding, what happened??

Im not sure how across the whole situation you are, so ill give a top to bottom summary:

Chad Lindberg (Ash from S2, with occasional guest appearances after) and Samantha Ferris (from S2-S5) have been role-playing their characters and "live tweeting" from heaven's Roadhouse. They made tweets a few weeks back that implied a destiel wedding on Valentines day (stuff like "wedding season is nearly here", "Hunter weddings can get rowdy," "something big is happening at the roadhouse on VDay," plus liking a bunch of tweets that asked them if they were talking about a destiel wedding).

So we took that and ran with it -- decided that regardless of what Chad or Samantha did, Dean and Cas were getting married on Valentines day. And then come VDay Chad and Samantha "live tweeted" various general valentines day updates from the Roadhouse - nothing destiel flavoured; just general standard valentines day stuff.

Meanwhile, the fans hosted a huge wedding party. Everyone was live tweeting what was happening at the wedding, who was saying and doing what, who cried tears of joy, who danced with whom, etc. It was massive and fantastic and we all had a blast and at the end of it, Dean and Cas drove off in the Impala, "just married" scrawled on the back window and cans trailing behind the bumper bar, to head off on their honeymoon. #DeanCasWedding trended worldwide for over 24 hours, hitting #1 in a bunch of different countries.

Initally, Chad and Samantha acknowledged nothing about the wedding. If only they had continued that silence. They had their valentines day roadhouse bash; we had our wedding; the two did not need to be in conflict.

But then Samantha was like "wedding? What wedding?? There was no wedding!" and Chad was like "yeah no wedding happened just general valentines day shenanighans."

Needless to say, folks weren't thrilled by this. Bears mentioning that I didn't see ANY disrespectful comments from fans; just comments like "hey we aren't telling you that your valentines day event didn't happen; can you please not try to tell us that ours didn't happen?" And "we're all having fun here; there's no need to invalidate other people," and stuff like that-- all politely worded, no hate, no aggression. Clear disappointment, that they would try to step on everyone's fun like this, but no hate.

But both of them buckled down and have accused fans of being bullies, and implied that we're not staying true to the spirit of the show, and etc. Chad has said that his blocking finger is getting tired; Samantha has basically said that we're being brats for not being grateful for the updates they've been doing. Which, no. We've all been enjoying their posts, we've all been having fun with them, but when they said "oh no THAT OTHER THING didn't happen," people were like "dudes come on, thats not cool."

So thats the Twitter update. Initially Chad was being at least vaguely respectable about it (saying stuff like "it was never my intention to upset anyone; I just wanted to do fun roadhouse updates for you all, sorry if anyones been hurt," and such) but Samantha kind of came out swinging from the outset, and hasn't backed down yet.

And its all so unnecessary???? Like. No one's out there telling them that their Roadhouse live tweets aren't real or didnt happen. They're having fun, and thats great. There's no need to attempt to invalidate the many thousands of fans who hosted a fucking global wedding.

Anyway it doesn't matter, because Dean and Cas DID get married on Valentines day, and it was fuckin GREAT, party of the CENTURY, and if Chad and Samantha didn't go then thats on them. They were invited, but they didnt show, and that ain't our fault.

Tldr: Dean and Cas got married on Valentines day, and nothing Chad and Samantha say can undo that. 💙💚

Ok but also Steve went back to 1970 right? 25 years after the ice?? When Peggy was undoubtedly married already right?????? So like?????????? I’m sorry but like?? Did he just show up and be like “Hey Peggy, hey Peggy’s husband, I’m back, but we can’t tell anyone or the timeline is fucked, so imma just hide in your basement. Oh also before I go, when your niece is 20, a different me is going to try and bone her” like????????????

Just to confirm: the preorders are NOT closing tomorrow (June 10) and will be reopening at some point?

You’re correct! They will be reopening in the next few weeks and will be open for at least another week after that. We’ll post on all of our socials when they reopen!

Hi!! I just wanted to inform you, (if you didn’t know) that Podunk, Oklahoma is a real place! Did you know this, or did you just think it sounded fun? (I’m from Oklahoma, so when I realized, I thought it was great!!) ((Also I adore your comic!!!!))

Yes, and it’s classified as a ghost town. I thought it would be funny if anyone ever googled it. :)It’s on the opposite side of the state from Fictional Podunk, though.

Tell me bout brains and tail dude

Omg im so happy you asked!

Okay so Im an anthropology major and this is kinda my jam you know? Hominin evolution is pretty cool and Ive talked about it quite a bit in my classes!!

Okay so the brains of hominins are inarguably big-the question is why? There are a few theories going, none of which really have to do with our head balancing because we don’t have a tail anymore.

There is the idea that we chose mates who look younger and thus healthier/more fertile. This “look” would come from things like a big head (like a baby) and big eyes. This would select for bigger heads and thus bigger brains.

There’s also the idea that as our brains grew bigger and needed more energy, we diverted that energy from our muscles to our brain, allowing us to slowly grow bigger.

As you can see, I’ve learned very little in regards to the role the tail/balance has in regards to brain growth- and in my opinion I think its just coincidental. There are limitations of fetus brain growth due to bipedalism and the hips of the female- if it was to big coming out the mother would not survive birth, and its painful as is.

Thanks for asking!!!!!
