Page 881…
Wednesday.
We’re flying home today.
Hope you guys are enjoying the pages. Thanks for stopping by.
I’ll be back to regular posting tomorrow. (not that I’m not posting regularly while I’m on vacation….I’m just doing it from 6 days ago…)
Scott
Scot the time traveler…. 🙂
the last panel gives me a chuckle.
Only a chuckle? Sacriledge!
Beautimous stuffs, darlin. Loooove her enthusiasm.
Flying today? Guess you listened more closely than Alex did, then. 😉
XDDD
Mrrt!
Niiice segway back into the Serious Plot. I love it.
Does Alex look like he’s fading away?
Is it weird that I understood that perfectly?
and we were all like pfoooow and you were all like pfieeeeew
LOL loved that last panel!!!
Maybe after this experience, Alex will be able to pass his classes in the real world without needing Nichole’s extra credit!
Am I the only one that hears when the Centaur guy (name at loss right now) talks the voice of John RedCorn from King of the Hill?
Focus Alex, Focus! LOL!
I am right there with you Rhuen, now is it even weirder that I’ve always heard Bud Bundy’s voice when reading Alex’s words lol
Huh? What? I’m sorry Chiron, we were a bit distracted listening to the fairy and the rock giant talking. What was it you were saying? XD
When I read Alex speaking I hear it in the voice of Bob from ReBoot. Actually, I hear Nastajia (sp?) in the voice of Dot Matrix. (From ReBoot again, not Spaceballs!)
For a moment, I thought Paddington was speaking out of character. That’s the trouble with putting fairies and giants together, even with a light to enhance the fairy.
Coming from Kiwi, of course, the monologue is cute. Now I picture her storytelling a la C3PO.
And I read this and was all like HA and then I was all like Hee Hee and then I was all like LOL! But then I was all like Hey?, but it was over til tomorrow.
More Kiwi please. Spinoff? You betcha!
LOL!! Hilarious page, I love it! Quick! Someone light a fire under Alex’s cute butt!
Kiwi made me think of one of the turtle’s lines in Finding Nemo:
“First you were all like ‘whoa’, and we were like ‘whoa’, and you were like ‘whoa…'”
I love this page! It’s a really nice segway back into the flying stuff.
A ‘Segway’ is a personal transportion device. The word you want is “segue”. They don’t look like they would be pronounced the same way, do they…
I hear my own voices in my head. I don’t need actors for help.
Did that sound a bit wrong? :XD
I have religiously been reading this every day since the day I discovered it on the web. I read all the archives, which took me 3 hours. Then kept checking back daily for updates.
I have thought of posting a few times, but ending up not doing so. Today, I had a thought regarding this webcomic that won’t be silenced.
I am pagan and have read and studied many books about dreams and psychic abilites. I believe I have figured out what Alex needs to learn to do and it is not something he can do within Dreamland itself.
It is an ability that can only be developed outside of the dream world. Alex needs to learn lucid dreaming. This is an ability where you stop simply being a spectator of the dream, you actively control every aspect of that dream. You can even control the outcome. If Alex can learn how to dream lucidly, not only would he able to fly again, but he would be able to develop such powers in Dreamland that would enable him to beat Nicodemus once and for all.
I believe Alex has the ability to learn this. I honestly believe Alex has psychic abilities. This assessment does seem to make sense to me in that most people with psychic abilities need an item to channel those abilities. In Alex’s case, it is the sword necklace. Without it, he cannot dream. This is also why I believe the necklace would not work for Nicole.
Speaking of Nicole, following along with the idea of lucid dreaming, I believe she will be a major player in helping Alex achieve this *if* she can get over her “faith” issues as to whether Dreamland is real or not or, for that matter, that people really *can* have psychic abilities.
Hey MagickFirewolf…
Welcome. THank you for reading and thanks for the great thoughts.
I DO tackle Lucid Dreaming (which I have had many MANY times…so cool).
During one of the conversations with Nicole…we DO talk about the possibility of Lucid dreams. But they only last for a few seconds. Not the whole night.
What Alex is going through (to relate to the real world…our world) is very similar to Lucid Dreams.
Gaining his powers would be him taking control. Just like in Lucid dreams.
But what Alex is going through is pure through and through magic. This world exists. These creatures are magical. There’s SOME science to it…but it’s not a Lucid Dream. It’s not in his head.
Hope this explains a bit. And thanks again for being a part of Dreamland.
XD
*is laughing too hard to type*
lol thats like me. then they went ‘no caitlyn dont hurt me’ and i was like boom pow die take this and this and THIS
Going back to the subject above of hearing certain actor/actress voices associated with certain characters, in my head Kiwi sounds like Tank Girl, especially in this scene ….
😉
Orion: “How can you not focus on anything I’m saying even for a moment?”
Alex: “I’m sorry, what?”
I does like teh Kiwi. ^_^
