Book 2: Prologue
A new adventure awaits!
- February 4, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth
SlumberTown title page with the series logo, by Macxi. Four characters are centered on and around a busted up yellow car, with the license plate 1CASA25. Boone the goat is standing on top, gazing up at the starry constellations in the sky. Romy the dog is standing on car's hood, also staring at the sky, with their back turned toward us. Echo the bat is leaning against the back of the car with arms crossed. Lester the hyena is holding a beer bottle and crashed out drunk on the ground in front of the car. The characters are all in an outdoor canyon surrounded by rocks, cactuses, a naked tree and several poppy flowers in the foreground.

Book 2.15: Auditory Recall
- May 6, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Boone begins listing out the things he needs aloud. "First things first, we need... a bag! Bag bag bag..." He grabs a couple of energy bars. "Water? Snacks? Or could we just manifest that on our own? I'll pack 'em anyway." He slips a bottle with a sun on it into the backpack pocket. "Proper sun protection... in the side pocket!" He holds up a compass excitedly. "And uhhhhhh OH! A compass! We've got one of those! What else, what else..." He shows off a comic book edition of 'Iowa Joan' Survival Guide, a parody of Indiana Jones, "Ah! Of course! One simply can't forget the essential Iowa Joan Survival Guide!" As Boone continues searching around the room, Echo calmly wraps up the conversation with Heather. "Cool. That's be the plan, then. We'll meet back at your place when we find 'im." Boone: "Shampoo? Nah... Romy's hat though! She'll want that! And speaking of..."

Book 1.15: Mysterious Note
- May 13, 2019

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Romy enters the motel, and flips their hood off their head while looking around the lobby. 'There's nobody at the front desk. Weird...' They start musing a bit more nervously. 'Maybe this place is abandoned? Is it too late to leave and find somewhere el -' A piece of paper falls down in front of her face, shocking her. "WHAAA!!!" They pluck the piece of paper off the string, where it seems to be hanging from the ceiling. "... huh?" The paper is a note that says "Welcome to my resting place! Hehe! Room 2A is *vacant*. Make yourself at home. -W". Romy looks around once again. 'Who could have written this note? And where -" Another string bobs down from the ceiling with a key attached, causing Romy to fall backwards. "ARF!!!'

Book 2.14: The Whatchamacallit
- April 29, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Echo nonchalantly remarks, "I suppose today's as good a day as any for a roadtrip." Boone gasps dramatically with stars in his eyes. "ROADTRIP?!" He then starts freaking out, "Wait - HAYSTACKS! That means I gotta pack! I just KNOW I'm gonna forget something!" Romy gives his arm a timid poke. "Do you... remember what we practiced?" Boone recalls a day where Romy is seen following him around in the grocery store, nodding along as he lists out various foods out loud. "Oh! The uh... wahtchamacallit..." He snaps his fingers as he recalls. "That's RIGHT! Auditory recall!"

Book 1.14: Old Motel
- May 6, 2019

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
There's a wide establishing shot, where Romy is seen stopped on their bike in front of a very shabby and worn-down looking building. There are three windows that are mostly broken and/or crooked with cobwebs hanging out several corners. The address is 999, and there's a big wooden sign that says "MOTEL" sticking out from the side. Romy, looking up at it: '.... this must be it. The road ends here. And I haven't passed any other buildings up to this point.' They fiddle uncertainly with the doorhandle. 'Only one way to find out for sure...' They creak open the door and peek their head inside a brightly lit room, shivering and sweating anxiously. "... h-hello?"

Book 2.13: Loose Threads
- April 22, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Heather scolds a grinning Piper, Boone laughs, and Romy gives the sweater a petrified look. Heather: "PIPER! What have I said about shoving dirty clothes in peoples's faces?" Piper: "Oops! Sorry!" Romy with an offputting smile: 'I... don't think this shirt's been washed for... a while.' She then concentrates on the scent with her eyes closed, which gives her the image of Alex on a wooden swing, wearing the same shirt. 'But the scent is distinct. I need to familiarize myself with it. Especially with everyone counting on me...' Heather sighs in relief. "Thanks, guys. I know it's a weird request. But if anyone can find him..." Boone interrupts excitedly, swooping Romy and Echo up in one arm while saluting with the other. "The terrific trio CAN! And WILL!!!"

Book 1.13: Quiet Contemplation
- April 29, 2019

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Romy sighs a breath of relief. 'I don't know who she is. But I'm glad she showed up when she did.' She starts riding her bike past the water tower. 'I wonder if that hotel really is haunted? I guess I don't have any better options...' She looks up at the stars and smiles. "... mmm..." She continues riding her bike under the setting sun in a starry purple sky, past canyons and cactuses. 'I've never been in a town so quiet and desolate. Slumber isn't at ALL like New Bork... but I like that. Hardly anyone here. And the night sky is so clear. It looks like the stars could stretch on forever. Really puts into perspective how small the world is. How small I am. It makes being alone... a little less lonely. And somehow, it makes me feel like everything is gonna turn out okay." She comes to a screeching halt.

Book 2.12: Wanderer
- April 15, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Heather tugs at her ear absentmindedly while going off on an explanation. In the background, we can see flashbacks of her asking Sky about where Alex is, Piper trying to take a picture of Alex with her camera only to find out he's disappeared, and Sky and Heather chuckling with relief to discover Alex eating cookies in the pantry, while Piper gasps dramatically. Heather: "That kit is always getting himself lost. Here one minute, gone the next. He's never too far off, though. Usually just caught up in a bit of mischief." Zoom-in on Heather's face. "But this time, he disappeared overnight." She continues from the other side of the desk toward an attentive Romy and Echo, and a Boone with his attention diverted elsewhere. "We've searched every corner of the house! The town, too. There really is no trace of him anywhere..." Echo: "Weird. You said you brought something with his scent on it?" Heather laughs, "OH YEAH! We thought Romy might be able to track him that way." Romy sweats nervously, "W-well... I'm no scenthound, but -" Piper suddenly interjects by shoving a striped cloth over Romy's snout. "HERE! HIS SHIRT!!!"

- April 22, 2019

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Echo points to a map using a giant stick. The map shows where the three of them currently are, across from the saloon, library, arcade and a building labelled 136. An arrow points north and to the left, where the hotel is located. Echo: "No problem! Keep going straight past the saloon until you hit a wall. The take a left from the water tower. The path should lead you there the rest of the way!" She pulls Lester's paw. "Aaaaaas for you..." Les: "Hrrm... ?" Echo makes a sheepish expression. "We should probably get you to bed before you cause any more, er... 'public disturbances'. Come on." Lester yells excitedly as Echo leads him away, "Woooooo, YEAH! We're holdin' paws! I guess it's a date, then? GAHAHA! *hic*!" Echo: "Keep your voice down. The diurnals are trying to sleep... and I'm trying not to get tinnitus..." Romy looks back at Echo from atop her bike, with a smile.

Book 2.11: Kitten Crisis
- April 8, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Piper, a young-red squirrel kid standing next to Heather, leans over the desk and yells, "IT'S ALEX! WE LOST ALEX!!!" Romy asks, "Alex?" Piper: "Uh-huh! Uh-huh! He really poofed for GOOD this time!" Boone puts an arm around Romy to explain, "Ah. That's Piper. She 'n Alex 'n Sky all live together with Heather." We see a flashback of Heather with the three kids: Piper, a squirrel, Alex, a kitten, and Sky, a deer, standing alongside Heather as Boone muses, "Can't remember if I ever introduced you..." Piper hands Romy a photograph. "Mm-hm! I have Alex's picture too. See?" We see the photo of a young brown tabby kitten with a bell collar, slightly serious and unsmiling.

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Lester starts flirting with a stone-faced Echo. "Eeeeeechooooo, BABY! I must say the moon in your - uh... glasses... brings out the sweet caress of your shining eyes... !" Echo chides him: "Settle down, Les. You know you're not my type. Far from it..." She continues to lecture him as Romy listens from afar. "Don't you have anything better to do than scaring that poor little dog? Or... let me guess... you're probably waiting for your personal escort to walk you home." Lester laughs boisterously. "GAHAHA! *hic!* How perceptive of you, my good lady... to come to such a fine gentleman in need! Haha!" Echo, unamused, "Tch, yeah. Predictable." She then turns to Romy. "Anyway, more importantly... hey there, new girl! Need help finding that hotel?" Romy, brought to attention, "Oh... YES! Yes, I... that's exactly... thank you."

Book 2.10: An Unusual Request
- April 1, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Romy looks down dejectedly. 'Something important. Yeah.' They crack open the door and peek out, catching the middle of a conversation. "........ and... I know you guys don't get asked to do stuff like this..." The shot cuts to Echo and Boone listening to Heather, a chinchilla with short black hair, a few earrings/gauges and a shirt with a UFO on it. Heather: "... but Dallas is always so busy. I wasn't sure where else to go." Echo tilts her glasses thoughtfully. "Hm. With all the wanderings lately... it was only a matter of time." Boone gives a big smile, "Leave it to us, amigas! We gotchoo!" Heather addresses Romy. "Oh - hi Romy." Romy, shyly: "Hey." Heather: "Under better circumstances, I'd love to plan that movie night with ya. But alas... we have a crisis."

Book 1.10: Saved by the Bat
- April 8, 2019

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Romy waits in suspense, as Lester seems to have lost his train of thought. Finally, she asks, "... what?" A new voice cuts in, "All right, Les. Leave the retriever alone." Les: "Heh... ?" A bat in obscured glasses and a long orange trenchcoat appears, hand casually in her pocket. Lester shrugs playfully. "Aw, bloody carrion. Guess I'm in trouble again." He bonks Romy over the head with his beer bottle as he walks past her. "I'll smell ya some other time, Sweater. Have fun at the haunted hotel. *hic!*" Romy: 'Uh, wait. What?'

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
Boone tenderly puts a hoof on Romy's shoulder. "Romy, listen..." A dinging bell catches their attention and perks their ears. Echo gives out a long, shivery yawn while hanging upside down in her napping position. "Well, that nap lasted... what - 30 minutes? 30 minutes in non-existent time. Which is still a perceived 30 minutes." She puts her glasses on, bumping into Boone as she walks. "Could've been longer if it weren't for SOMEONE belting showtunes in the lobby. For hours. Nonstop." Boone pulls his ears up mockingly. "Hey! You know karaoke is my way of relieving stress! Just wear earplugs if your big ears keep you awake!" He turns to Romy. "Anyway. Looks like we got a job to do, kid." He looks up sheepishly. "I... can't remember what we were talkin' about before." Then, thumbs-up: "... so just lemme know if it was important, okay?"

There's a pause, with Lester looking on at a sweaty, nervous Romy. Then he pulls up his drink and mentions non-chalantly, "Oh, yeah. Yeah. Ther's a motel... I think..." Romy: "R-really?" 'Oh, what a relief...' "Um... do you know where I could find it?" Lester smirks and goes "Ppppfth..." before erupting into noisy laughter that spooks Romy and causes them to look around to see if they're attracting attention. "GAHAHAHAHA! *hic*! The Slumber motel? YOU?! You really wanna... *hic!* ... stay THERE?" Romy: "W-well..." Lester laces an arm around Romy and taps on their chest, "Liiiiiiiiiiiisten... there's rumors 'bout that place, y'know." He bends down to whisper, "Now, you didn't hear it from me or nuffin'... but that place... they say it's..."

Book 2.8: Perfectly Natural
- March 25, 2024

#readslumbertown #labyrinth #webcomics
A loud "AHEM." breaks Romy out of their thoughts. She looks up, pool stick still in her mouth, as Boone looks down at her from on top of the table, sitting on all fours and concerned. "Romy? Just checkin' in. You doin' alright?" He tilts his head. "If you don't mind me saying... you've been kinda out of sorts all morning." Romy: "I HAVE?!" Boone: Uh-huh." He pokes at her head with a finger. "I know that head of yours by now. You're always thinkin'. Kinda keepin' to yourself." He continues observing her thoughtfully. "But I've never seen you worry over a game of pool. It's UNNATURAL. Something's bothering you, isn't it?" Romy scratches the back of her head, averting her eyes nervously. "Uh - unnatural? I'm not natural. I mean -" They gasp. "UNNATURAL! I'M PERFECTLY NATURAL!" Boone, not buying it: "Mm-hm."

#readslumbertown #thepearl #webcomics
Lester stands silently, smiling down at Romy in a somewhat creepy fashion. Romy looks up anxiously. 'He's not.. saying anything. What do I do now?' Lester takes a swig of his beer, then starts to circle around a nervous Romy, twiddling her fingers. Romy: "Um... I think I should be going home now..." Lester: *sniff sniff* You ain't goin' home. You new here, right?" Romy: "Actually, yes. I'm... looking for a place to stay. Would you know anywhere like that? Like... a hotel?" Lester looks at her silently again with a puzzled expression. Romy begins catastrophizing internally. 'Oh no, I said the wrong thing, didn't I? He's probably... oh... oh NO. That was inconsiderate! But... I can't take it back now. I already asked! This is bad this is bad this is bad this is bad'

Romy takes the lead! Did she manage to crack the code? She just made it up... but isn't that what puzzles are? Making up solutions to see if they work?

And Romy is better at that than she gives herself credit for!

#webcomics #comics #furryart #spiderforest
Boone gasps dramatically: "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT???" We pan to an image of Boone placing a birthday hat on Echo's head while she averts her eyes from the birthday cake and room filled with decorations. Romy is thinking in the corner, and Lester is laughing drunkenly in the background. Boone: "Well, maybe we oughta change that!" Echo: "No. No, we don't." "How come? Is it 'cuz you don't like it when people sing the song?" Boone continues making dramatic expressions while going on about it. "This is an emergency! A travesty of catastrophic proportions! If Echo's never celebrated her birthday, that means..." He counts on his fingers. "25, 26, 27... that's twenty-seven birthdays we gotta catch up on!!!" He falls backwards with the back of his hand to his forehead. "It's kind of a lot... think we can manage it, Romy?" Romy is brought back to earth suddenly with a "Hah?" Boone looks down at Romy, offended, "... are you even listening... ?" Romy grins nervously through her teeth. "S-sorry! Thinking. Um." Boone pouts and slides his sunglasses over his eyes, where a beam of sunlight is hitting, reflecting and directing somewhere to the side. Romy, observing and thinking, 'Oh! That beam of light. It's casting a glow...' She pulls Boone's arm to keep him still. "Boone, stay here." Boone, clueless, "Beh?" "And uh... try not to move to much." "Oooooooooookay?" We see the sun beam hitting from his glasses to the Aries constellation on the wall, causing it to glow. Romy's attention turns to Lester's beer bottle, which he's holding upside down. She directs him to lift his arm to where the sun beam is directed. "A-and you. Can you move your arm up a little? Near the shoulder?" Les, tiredly, "Eh? What fer?" Echo shoves him into position. Lester lifts his arms in exasperation and shouts, "HEY! Tryin' ta pick a fight or somefink?" His bottle is positioned perfectly to direct and re-direct the light beam. Romy, with excited stars in her eyes: "Y-yes! Right there, exactly!" Lester keeps still with his arms up, poker-faced: "... *hic*!". Romy then shyly regards Echo. "And Echo? Iiiiiiis.. it okay if I touch you?" She sweats and grins nervously. Echo's heart rate increases and she blushes. "Ah? Er. Of course. However you... need." Romy takes Echo's hand in her own, and gently leads her. 'The third river... it'd have to be Scorpio.' She looks up to the constellation on the wall. 'If I'm right, then... this just might work...' She takes Echo's face and slowly pulls it down, while Echo looks a little lovestruck. Romy: "... there." She holds Echo's face in her paws, the sun shining and directing on her glasses, making the blush on her face glow. Romy blushes too, the eye contact making her shy. Romy: "Yeah. Just like that..." Romy then releases Echo's face and immediately turns back to the puzzle at hand, deep in thought. Echo meanwhile is seen holding her blushing face, surprised by her reaction to Romy's touch. Romy: 'Then from her, to me... where would I direct the path from there?' We see a map constructed by Romy's mind, where the position of each person, their birth constellations, and the light beams mirror the symbols/riddle on the stone tablet. Romy: 'Something like this... ?' Uncertainly, 'Gosh, I hope...' More confidently, "I mean - I KNOW this is right! It HAS to be!" Romy looks up at the Pisces constellation. "I'll stand here. And then..." Boone looks over from a couple feet away. "And then... what?" He must've moved because the light beam is barely brushing the side of his glasses. Romy instructs him to tilt his head a little. "Oh! Hah. Tilt your head like..." Boone mirrors Romy's tilt, glasses coming in contact with the light beam once more. "Like thi -"
