Kaija @scaredykai.bsky.social · May 12

Happy #webcomicday ! I'm Kaija, I'm creating a fantasy adventure comic where a kid is on a mission to rescue his baby sister from a fairy at the palace, there are some snags. Suitable for most audiences, maybe PG for fantasy violence.
The Quest of Casey Tailor at questofcaseytailor.spiderforest.com

"Pancakes!" Isabell shouts as she sits down while her mother puts a pre-cut pancake down Infront of her. She gives Isabell and Casey each a little kiss on the tops of their heads while she reminds them, "All right, have fun today you two, and stick close to your brother." Isabell is not paying attention because she is too exited about the pancakes. Casey agrees "Okay."
Their Dad (A thin pale man with long brown and grey hair pulled into a low ponytail who has been here the whole time awkwardly in the background) starts eating as he says, "Derron, you should take them to see the kite competition! I hear someone made a life-sized dragon kite!" Derron replies, "Good idea! Casey do you remember that kite dad made when we were little?" "Hmm..." Casey tries to think. "It caught on fire." Derron reminds him. Casey leans back in his chair, "Oh yeah! wow I cant believe I forgot about that!" Derron goes on, "That was amazing, nothing can top that one dad." Their dad laughs, "Haha! Well, I don't know about that..."
The scene zooms out on the modest but neatly furnished upstairs home as they finish their breakfast around the dining table. There is a large brick oven with plenty of wood piled next to it, wooden flooring, a sink, coat rack with plenty of coats and a couple pairs of shoes laying around. There is also stairwell leading down.

Casey shouts, "What? No! Where is she!?" The girl stares at him through her long wet hair but does not answer. Casey nervously asks "Who are you?" She takes a pause before answering grabbling something from her coat but does eventually say "...My name is Willow." Then she puts a golden necklace with a pendant shaped like a bird, there is a red glow and then in her place stands a raven. Casey stares shocked, "What?"

Leal closes his eyes to concentrate, "But that implies there is an unknown magic user within the palace walls, there are measures to prevent magical access to the palace from the outside and the royal mage isn't able to create portals." He looks grim as he continues, " I can't say why they would be connected but it seems like a strange coincidence that these events would lead to the same place." Terry groans, " Uhhhgg...Next your gonna say my 'family emergency' is connected." Leal's eyes widen in concern, " Um, do you know what it's about?" Terry continues nonchalant, "No, just that I gotta get up there as soon as I can." Leal and Casey look at each other very skeptically and both let out a, "hmmm..." Terry stops them though, "Oh what's with those looks? Come on guys I'm just joking!" She grins, "My family is really big so they could be up to anything. If it was actually important momma woulda specified. Whether your guys's problems are connected or not, whatever is going on at the palace sounds like a bigger deal so don't worry, I'll stick around to help you both out." She puts her fist over her heart, basically glowing with heroic energy.

Casey looks down at the mouse, "Hmm you don't seem wild at all and you are very cute...umm..Roll over?" He asks hesitantly, and it does! "Oh wow I didn't expect you to actually do that! That's amazing!" He thinks, "Hmm..." Then holding out his hand asks, "Shake?" and they shake hands. "Yeah!"

more dead and/or tortured children means a better game right? (no.)

Kaija @scaredykai.bsky.social · 2d

ive been watching my sibling play poppy p laytime and kinda seems like the developers looked at F NAF and said: hmm kids love the dark 5-ish dead children lore...what if we one-up that with say...5000-ish dead orphans? also they were experimented on, tortured & the survivors are starving to death.

yes! i forgot to post this but two did make it into the kiln! I tried orange on black and black on orangey brown, cause i usually have gaps if i paint the two colors separate. :3

one of the mugs coming out of the kiln grabbed by a gloved hand.

one of the mugs on display, the picture is very small because its a cropped booth photo, i forgot to take one of it individually.
