Paveline would appreciate any help on her journey home. The current incentive is this wallpaper. Request desired size after donating and I'll send it to you!
Basically he’s saying “It sucks man but I don’t care JUST KEEP READING BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE” ha ha ha
And Paveline, she can’t really tell and I’d think it’d be difficult to know exactly what to do in such a situation, so she’s just doing as the man asks. At least that’s what went through my head when I was writing this, ha ha
Hmm.. I don’t think an 11 year old boy would actually say “I was having a pleasant time with my friends”, and he certainly wasn’t brought up in some well-mannered place. Just a thought.
“Oh yeah, I’m great. Oh, this knife? Nah, it’s just a minor inconvenience.”
He’s taking this pretty well I would say. Everyone is very smiley for a guy being on his death bed. XD
Also, on the fifth panel, it looks like you missed a space between me and when. <.<
And lastly, I am rather insulted by the last panel. I was hoping for a guest appearance by Block 33! -.-; I guess this is the new block, block 66.
<3!
He’s so far gone, man, he can’t even tell.

Aww I find this page very heartwarming. I really like Paveline’s smile on that second to last panel. She looks so sweet : )
I’m glad! I’ve always enjoyed those kinds of smiles.
I fuckin love Paveline’s smile on the last pannel. Also, “mewhen”.
Ha ha.
I will fix that when I get home from work!
He is rather inconsistent with his journaling.
Nonetheless, I like him. I wonder where this is getting to..
Yeah I patterned him after myself, as far as journaling goes. I got a journal when i was like 10 or 11 and only wrote in it like once a year.
I think mewhen is a good touch, after all, I doubt they had any twink handy
(don’t worry ashie, I know you better than they do <3)
Wh-what’s twink? Ha ha
Sorry, I come from the future. Twink is this amazing lazer tool that actually blasts the mistakes into dust! -not so good for the rest of the paper

Akhana is so cute ;____; D:<
Ha ha, that’s true.
Just think of it like it’s a translation.
