Defeated (AVA, Ep 10)

Lyss I want to know your most deranged opinion on cereal. This is scientific inquiry

I hate the actual cereal whatever it is. I use them like tea bags and let them steep in the milk for better milk.

He reminds me of a lumberjack. Idk if his design was like that intentionally but ya

second base is preserving your organs and mounting your head on my wall. third base is sex of course

some very rough story planning comics I made a while ago

Men be like “women watch out we’ll replace you with sex robots” like it’s 1. a threat and 2. hole havers haven’t done that since the first vibrator was invented

Okay I just wrapped up the annual Over the Garden Wall rewatch and it’s late and I don’t know how well I’ll be able to articulate these thoughts but:

The Beast knows it’s in a story

The Beast knows it’s in a story, and it knows how people react to stories, and that’s horrifying in a series based out of folklore and fairy tales and storytelling tradition. The Beast preys on people by knowing how they’ll react to stories. The Beast acts frustrated that Greg used a honey comb for a “golden comb” and a spiderweb on a stick for a “spool of golden thread,” but it’s baiting a trap - by exploiting that same fairytale logic, Greg is going to die of exposure in the cold while he waits for the sun to “set” in a cup

Because of course Greg will wait to see the sun set into the cup. Of course the Woodsman will keep the lantern lit. That’s how the story should go. The Beast is a parasite sucking blood out of a perfectly arranged Grimm fairy tale about the martyrdom of parenthood.

The only way to properly defeat it is to actively defy the story being set out ahead of you. Over the Garden Wall says, over and over again, that Wirt will sacrifice his life for Greg. “You are responsible for you and your brother’s actions,” the show says. The original pitch bible for the series said that Wirt would sacrifice himself for Greg, that he’d die to take responsibility for Greg-

And then Wirt stops and says “Wait. That’s dumb” and immediately shatters the story that’s been set up for him, and that’s how he defeats the Beast.

My circadian rhythm is in 5/8

I too want to give Maomao a kiss on the cheek

EDIT: I made a follow up comic

Elaborate thirty-second-long magical girl transformation sequence, and at the end of it the only difference is that I'm now holding a knife.
