Gator Days Informational Post
Panel 1 Gustopher is breaking the fourth wall to tell you about all the different ways you can find the Gator Days. Gustopher: Hey! I'm Gustopher from the comic Gator Days! I have information for you! August: Oh no, he's addressing the audience again. Panel 2 Gustopher: Here are the places you can find us under the name FieldExplores. Gustopher presents a list of locations you can read Gator Days. The list includes Reddit, Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, and Tumblr. Twitter/X is at the bottom of the list but has been crossed out. Mewbert: Mew? (possibly meaning "What a fantastic list, but what if I wish to support the creator of this comic through financial contributions? In addition, once we are done I would like someone to pet me and bring me snacks) Panel 3 Gustopher: GREAT QUESTION! You can also find us at Patreon and Ko-Fi if you'd like to help support the comic. Patreon has early access comics! Panel 4 Gustopher: Links in the comment section. August: What comment section? Is the audience in the room with us? After the events of this comic, August questioned Gustopher about everything he just said. Gustopher couldn't remember saying any of it and went back to playing video games. August decides not to push the issue of breaking the fourth wall any further.

I apologize for waking you in this most undignified manner but it is imperative that I dine soon I fear that I might perish from this foul hunger.") Mewbert: Mew (possibly meaning "FEED ME! NOW!")

Costume Inspiration - Gator Days
Costume Inspiration - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Gustopher and Douglas are meeting up to go Trick-or-Treating. Gustopher sees that Douglas has decided to go as the classic ghost for Halloween. Various spooky things are happening in a house in the background. There are two mysterious figures on the second floor with a spider above them. And demonic entity also appears to have a plate full of eyeballs as a bat watches from above. I hear they're full of protein. Gustopher: DOUGLAS! Great costume! Douglas: Thanks. Panel 2 Douglas poses in his costume. It's just a simple sheet with eye and arm holes cut out but it's effective. I'd give it four out of five rocks. Douglas explains his inspiration for the costume. Douglas: I decided to be a ghost. It represents my fear of never truly being seen and my hope to be remembered. Panel 3 Gustopher stands in his own costume. He is wearing the same taco costume he wore last year. He begins to contemplate his inspiration for such a costume. Thankfully, the house behind him does not have anything too spooky in it. Just a cat looking at what's going on outside. Panel 4 Gustopher carefully chooses his words and explains his inspiration for his fine taco costume. Gustopher: I'm a taco because I like tacos. The cat in the window appears to be doing something. Smiling? And shadowy tendrils are erupting beneath the cat. Okay, I'm sorry. This is too spooky. The eyeballs were bad enough. I'm leaving.

Parental Permission (Part 5) - Gator Days
Parental Permission (Part 5) - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Gustopher and Douglas have both asked their respective parents if Douglas can go trick-or-treating with Gustopher and his dad. Gustopher is waiting on the swings to hear if Douglas has received permission to go. Gustopher: Did your parents say you can go? Douglas: Yeah, my dad said it's okay. Panel 2 Douglas has a lot on his mind. He received permission but felt rather different from his father's usual parenting style. He's happy he can go but finds it odd. Douglas: But... Dad is always telling me I need to be more mature. Panel 3 Douglas sits down on the swings. They're pretty high up and he's short so it's impressive that he got up with such ease. Please applause. Douglas deserves it. Douglas: Now he's telling me to enjoy being a kid while I can. It's confusing. Panel 4 The sun is setting behind Gustopher and Douglas as they sit and contemplate parents on the swing. The two of them wondering how much parents really have things figured out. Gustopher: Maybe it's confusing for parents too. Douglas: That's the scariest part.

He has gone down to the basement where his father has spent many hours painting various models. Across his table are various tools for model painting. Douglas is weary of being down here at all be he does not want to put off asking his big question. Douglas: Dad, could I go trick-or-treating on Halloween with Gustopher and his dad? Ben: Yes. Panel 2 Douglas is surprised. He was expecting to be told no and possibly receive a lecture on how immature trick-or-treating is. He wants to understand why he's being given permission. Douglas: Really? I thought you'd call it childish. Ben: It is childish. You are a child. Go do child things. Panel 3 Ben begins to paint the model spaceship he's holding. His expression grows a little more serious. He explains his reasoning. Ben: Enjoy it while you can. Life is short. Eventually you have to stop playing with toys and man up. Panel 4 Against his better judgement, Douglas questions this statement. Douglas: But you're playing with toys right now! Ben: These are collectables. That's different. Deep down, Ben knows it's really not that different.

Parental Permission (Part 3) - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Douglas has been invited to go trick-or-treating with Gustopher and his dad. Now all he needs to do is ask his parents. He's about to enter his house and is not very confident about this because of his father's lack of patience with kid activities. He is certain he would say no. Douglas: Dad almost always says no when I ask to do anything. Panel 2 Douglas begins to formulate a plan. He's pretty sure he can bypass his father in this matter. All he needs to do is ask his mom and he'll probably be in the clear. No disapproving comments from his dad. Douglas: Just have to ask Mom. Dad doesn't even need to know. Operation "Just Ask Mom" is go! Panel 3 Douglas approaches his mom who is handling his fussy younger brother. He decides to get the question out while he still has the courage. Douglas: Mom, could I- Wendalyn: Sorry Ducky, I'm busy. Ask your father. Operation "Just Ask Mom" has failed. Panel 4 Douglas only now realizes that his timing could have been better. He stares down at the ground in defeat. Douglas: Dang it.

He has taken a moment to calm down and has decided to investigate the matter further. Gustopher: So you've never been trick-or-treating? Douglas: I haven't. It sounds fun. Panel 2 Gustopher has a great idea. He once again gets excited. Gustopher: What if you went with me and my dad? Douglas: I wouldn't be a bother? Panel 3 Gustopher is already jumping into it and starts on his way home to ask his dad. Gustopher: Of course not! Let's ask our parents. The worst they can say is "No." Douglas: Yeah... Panel 4 Douglas looks towards the ground. He's not feeling very confident about this at all. His father has never been big on kid things. Douglas: Or make me feel stupid for even asking.

Parental Permission (Part 1) - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Gustopher is excited to see Douglas and wants to talk about Halloween costumes. Tragically, he is in for a massive shock. Gustopher: Douglas! What are you going as for Halloween? Douglas: Nothing. Panel 2 Gustopher is bewildered! How could this be! Not dressing up when you go out on Halloween is probably against the law or something. What if Douglas is arrested? Gustopher: But you have to dress up to go out on Halloween night! Douglas: I don't go out. Panel 3 Gustopher is baffled! How is Douglas going to go trick-or-treating if he doesn't go out? What is happening? Gustopher: BUT HOW DO YOU GO TRICK-OR-TREATING? Douglas: I don't. Panel 4 Gustopher is bamboozled! Douglas won't have any candy if he doesn't go trick-or treating! SERIOUSLY! This has to be illegal. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO!? Gustopher: THEN HOW DO YOU GET HALLOWEEN CANDY!? Douglas: I think you care more about this than I do.

Up to Something - Gator Days
Up to Something - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 It's a pleasant day at kindergarten. Ember is chatting with Bolero and Grace about raisins and Teacher seems to be straightening up some things. He's carrying a box of salt. Why? I don't know. The teachers in this city are weird. Don't question it. Along the wall is a banner that has "THE ALPHABET" and "NUMBERS" written across it several times. The actual words, not the alphabet and numbers. Someone was yelled at over this. Teacher (thinking): Ember has been behaving all day. Ember: RAISINS! Panel 2 Teacher narrows his eyes and watches the situation carefully. Teacher (thinking): She's up to something. Teacher doesn't want Ember to know that he's onto her and plans to continue acting as if he hasn't noticed anything. Panel 3 Bolero begins to speak but Ember can't pay attention because she's distracted by Teacher. She looks up at him and carefully considers the situation. Ember (thinking): TEACHER HASN'T BEEN UPSET WITH ME TODAY. Panel 4 Ember narrows her eyes and has a realization. Ember (thinking): HE'S UP TO SOMETHING. Ember continues to do nothing so that Teacher will not suspect that she's onto him.

It is at this point that Hannah realizes that Olivia probably wasn't thinking about space. Panel 4 Hannah acknowledges that she probably misread Olivia's concern. Now would probably be a good time to go inside. Hannah: You were talking about the dark. Olivia: Now I'm scared of two things.

Banned Books - Gator Days
Banned Books - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Olivia and Gustopher are at the library. The Library is having a special event for books that have been banned in the past. Dora the librarian is stacking books with titles like "BOOK", "Boogers", "Tales", "Can you", "read this" and "Word". Olivia has a great interest in forbidden knowledge and has been browsing what's available. She's found a book called "Salt Box" and has an important question for the librarian. Olivia: Miss Librarian! Why was this book banned? Dora: Vulgar Language. Panel 2 Dora makes a shocked expression and holds her hands to her face. This is the only way she can express how depraved the book is. Dora: The word "butt" is used.... FIFTEEN TIMES! Panel 3 Dora looks down to the children to gather their reaction. Internally, Gustopher is wondering if Dora meant "but" with one "t" or "butt" with two. Olivia immediately assumes it's the latter. Behind them is a poster promoting banned books week. There is a cartoon book that's smiling and saying "I'm forbidden!" He's booky the banned book. He was specifically banned for being made using the darkest of magic. He's also kind of rude. Panel 4 Olivia is excited about the book. This leads Gustopher to assume that "butt" was indeed spelled with an extra "t". Olivia: Now I have to read it. Dora: Oh noooo... I'll help you check it out.

We Wait - Gator Days
We Wait - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Gustopher is floating in a nameless expanse with his arms stretched out and his eyes closed... Colors of blue, black, purple, and pink spark and shift all around him. He can do nothing here but wait. Gustopher: I am adrift in the realm between. Time is meaningless. Panel 2 Gustopher contemplates his situation further. Gustopher: How long has it been? Minutes? Years? Who knows... Panel 3 In reality, Gustopher is laying on the floor with his cat, Mewbert, comfortably lying on top of him. August is watching while holding a cup of something warm that probably has caffeine in it. He would be concerned but is well aware that he has done stuff like this when he was a kid. Panel 4 August decides to make sure that Gustopher is okay. August: You okay? Gustopher: Yeah, just waiting for my game to finish updating. Mewbert opens her eyes and notices that Nougat, the other cat, has seen that Gustopher is lying on the floor.

Halloween Costume Plans - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August and Gustopher are out shopping when they notices a Halloween display. Gustopher is instantly excited about Halloween coming up. Gustopher: DAD! Halloween is coming! August: It is! Panel 2 August has been planning to make this year more exciting. August: Since your taco costume was cheap last year, I think we should go big this time! What do you want to be? Panel 3 Gustopher contemplates the choices with his hands to his side. Unrelated, but he's wearing his Sweater that says Sweater. It's a spin off of the Shirt Shirts but they haven't been quite as popular. People say that the Clothing Clothing company has sold out and they're just in it for the money. Anyway, various ideas swirl around Gustopher's head. Including Vampire, Super hero, ghost, copyright infringement, space marine, lamp, and banana. Two names in the corner are slight obscured. They seem to say Adam Tots and Hollering Elk. Could be something else. I guess we'll never know. Panel 4 After some careful considering, Gustopher knows exactly what he wants to be. Gustopher: I wanna be a taco again! August: Really? Are you sure? Gustopher: TACO! TACO! TACO!

School Paper (Part 4) - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Miss Liam is tidying up her classroom as Liam walks in. She's holding a box labelled "Salt". Seriously, what is she doing with all that salt? Why does she have multiple salt boxes? What's she getting up to during the summer? It probably involves margaritas. Anyway, Liam has decided that he's going to face his fears and write for the school paper. Miss Horsehill: Hello, Liam. Liam: Miss Horsehill, I decided to write for the school paper. Panel 2 Liam stands tall and puts his best foot forward. Liam: The idea of millions reading my work is scary but I'll do my best. Panel 3 Miss Horsehill stares blankly into space. It is just now occurring to her that she might have oversold the readership of the school paper. Behind her is a poster that says "Always Be Chewing" with a little cow saying "Don't Choke!". It's a good reminder to the children to make sure they properly chew their food before swallowing. Thank you cow, I will always remember you. Panel 4 Miss Horsehill is quick to calm Liam's nerves. Miss Horsehill: The paper only has a few dozen readers. Liam: Thank God! That's less scary.

Stressed because Miss Horsehill asked him if he would consider writing for the school paper. He's thinking it over very carefully. Perhaps too carefully. It's consuming his every thought. Liam's little sister, Ember, is sipping on a juice box next to Liam's bed. This juice box will keep her wrath contained, for now. Liam: I love writing. And I like it when people read my writing. Panel 2 Liam continues staring at the ceiling as he voices his true concerns to Gustopher. Ember's going to town on the juice box. It's good stuff. Liam: But my feelings get hurt easily. I'm scared people might hate my work. Panel 3 Gustopher does his best to help Liam move his thoughts in a positive direction. Ember is preparing to speak as she notices that her juice box is about to run dry. She'll surely have grand pearls of wisdom to share with her older brother. Gustopher: Yeah, but there's also people who might love it. Sometimes you just have to take risks. Panel 4 Ember shall no longer be silenced. She has the obvious answer to this whole problem. Ember: AND I'LL BITE ANYONE WHO HATES IT! Liam: Ember, no. Ember: A SMALL BITE!

Liam: Miss Horsehill asked if I wanted to write for the school paper. I don't know... Panel 2 Liam proceeds to elaborate on his concerns. He's always been pretty quiet and doesn't talk much but he's grown comfortable speaking his mind around Gustopher. Liam: What if I write something so bad, it gets shared all over the internet. Everyone will laugh at me. Panel 3 Liam begins to spiral into further panicked thoughts. Liam: And I get arrested for being a bad writer. And aliens see it and attack. Then I DIE! Panel 4 Gustopher attempts to calm his friend's chaotic thoughts. Gustopher: Or maybe you'll write something award winning! Liam: Seems unrealistic.

The School Paper (Part 1) - Gator Days
The School Paper (Part 1) - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Liam is talking to his teach, Miss Horsehill. Miss horsehill is putting down a box that's labeled "CONFISCATED PHONES" The second "C" in "CONFISCATED" was added after it was written because someone spelled the word wrong. What an embarising mistake. Behind them is a dry erase board that has a schedule listed. Part of it obscured but it appears to say "SCHEDULE - Reading- Discussion - Debate - Combat - Crying". Someone has also drawn a really cool looking "S" in the bottom right corner of the board and a cute kitty. Miss Horsehill has a suggestion she'd like to run by Liam. Miss Horsehill: Liam, have you thought about writing for the school paper? Liam: There's a school paper? Panel 2 Miss Horsehill puts down the box and proceeds to correct a common misconception about the school paper. Miss Horsehill: It's really a website. Liam: Interesting. Panel 3 Miss Horsehill: You could write articles about things you like. Liam: Sounds fun. Liam's face, as always, does not show much emotion. But he is intrigued by this idea. He enjoys writing and it could be nice to have a reason to write. The box of confiscated phones is no longer partially blocked by Miss Horsehill's arm and it's revealed that the box used to contain salt. What could Miss Horsehill be doing so much salt? Perhaps ice cream is involved. Panel 4 Miss Horsehill: Then the whole school can read what you wrote. Liam: Sounds terrifying. Liam puts his hands up to his face in distress. He worries about people not liking his writing. Once again, Liam's face does not show a great deal of emotion but hopefully the act of putting his hands to either side of his face will display the appropriate amount of dismay at the proposal.
