Hello Anons young and old, the webcomic Unsounded has just finished (with a sequel on the way) and so those of us who enjoy it thought a group reread via storytime would be a fun thing to do. I'll be storytiming in blocks that match the planned volumes we know and my own best guess at how the future volumes will be laid out. Today we've got a chunky one, the longest by just a few pages. The Schedule:8/24: Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 >>1500362548/31: Chapters 5, 6, 7, 8 >>150143809 >>150147612 Today: Chapters 9, 10, 11, 129/14: Chapters 13, 14, 159/21: Chapters 16, 179/28: Chapters 18, EpilogueI don't have a well written pitch prepared aside from saying it has been, for the 15 years I've been reading it, the best webcomic out there in my opinion. It's fantasy, it's dark, it's funny, the characters are at turns loveable and hateable. It really is just fantastic. If a fellow reader would care to convince our fellows Anons I'd be more than happy to include it in future threads. We've now passed what is available in the most recent Kickstarter so which chapters included is mere guesswork on my end. Speaking of the Kickstarter, it just ended with a rather respectable $154,125 raised from 2,246 backers, her most successful one to date. Though the last one was years ago at this point so I would sure hope so. If you just can't wait to continue you can read all 18 chapters over on the official website but storytimes are great fun so even if you do read ahead, come back and join us the future Sundays. With that said, let's get started.
Sorry for the delay, CAPTCHA bullshit. Anyway, how's everyone's week been? Y'all did contribute to the Kickstarter right? Any of y'all snag a commission or a cameo?
Now we're in a brothel but I didn't want to comb every panel for a stray tit, so if anyone sees anything, which there might not be, be cool and don't make a big deal out of it.
Here's our first page of today I've had to edit together just so I can post them but to get the full effect check them out over athttps://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch09/ch09_10.html
>>150259187Just wanted the books, waiting for them to ask for my address to ship them so this doesn't feel like a scam.
>>150259580Boring the ho's >>>> Scaring the ho's
Some neat border breaking here. Minor so I didn't put it together. It goes over the next few pages.https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch09/ch09_55.html
And that should be it for now.
>>150259580Title drop
This can't be good! Knock really knows how to close out a chapter. As usual there will be a break before the next chapter, and it's a doozy. It should fit into this thread with just enough room to spare giving us a nice segue into a 2nd thread.
>>150259954Are there really enough images to warrant 2 threads?
Longer break than I figured but hey, let's keep going.>>150260502441 pages by my count. Image limit is 300 isn't it?>>150259484You ever do Kickstarter before Anon? The publisher running this one has been doing it awhile so you shouldn't have to worry about getting scammed.
Whoops, 431, having glanced over at my tally immediately after I hit post.
>>150259331kek
>>150258905psssstyou have the original sizes on kemono su
>>150259425Dwayne Chudelier
>>150261206Please I have the full sizes on Patreon since I give her my dollary doos every month, but that's a bit poor form to post them all here.
>>150259308What's with the literal orc?
>>150261460One of the commissions from the Volume 2 Kickstarter I believe. Canonically it's a glamour and they're just into that shit.

>>150261255Nothing to see just my wife's assistant picking her up by the ass

>>150259331>that blushAnd people said in final threads that sette's asexual yet here she's literally embarrassed being reminded she'll never grow up>>150259425>20 minutes in>calls the queen a whore>cresce in charge of handling the banter
>>150261870I think it makes perfect sense that she can be asexual while also feeling embarrassed about looking like a child. She wants to be big and tall and imposing, she doesn't want tits.
>>150259453This was really the point where people realize Unsounded was going to be something far , far above the bar in the webcomics scene.
Duane's religiosity is such an interesting part of his character for me. You rarely get a character portrayed where their beliefs truly are the lens upon how the character interacts with the world. So many other deeply religious characters fall flat if the author isn't really religious or are overly preachy and Correct if the author is.
>>150262512>>150262526>He was going to survive in the original scriptFuck you Anadyne
>>150261179Man, Ana really is a shit caster
>>150259453>>150259463>>150259476>>150259502This is what I didn't quite get on my first read.So 1. Nary's reasoning for not informing Sette of the real smuggling plan was based on need-to-know2. Stockyard was always 100% on Nary's side. 3. Anadyne and the Mask were just a redundancy in case Sette, whom Stockyard was told was coming, proved too schizo to control Duane?4. Together, Sette would take Duane to the port while Stockyard helped with the Silver5. After this Stockyard would take his share from (???) and leave the town. This was stockyard's actual plan until Sette bailed on him here.While anadyne as his confidante was no-selling the plan saying they would be betrayed by literally every party involved and secretly planned to abandon the family, encouraged also because she could no longer tolerate stockyard's constant switches between abuse and simping and the other Frummagem's total disregard for her.
>>150261949>She wants to be big and tall and imposing, she doesn't want tits.I think she wants to be tall, imposing, have tits and any other appendages she was made fun of for lacking.
Senpai, may I suggest putting a 3 or 2 minute timer on your script? 30 seconds is way too fast for /co/
>>150259267>the hooker Starfish is with was a childdamn, never noticed on first read
>>150262236character.ai in a nutshell
>>150262849Sette wasn't the only one being left out. Stock clearly didn't know That Sette was a part of the deal as well and the only thing that can control duanePlus he had way too much confidence in Ana. Somehow she is only one aware that she is a shit write.
>>150261870I think The asexual thing comes from the perma child brain. Hormones just never kicked in
>>150262796ENTER MY ROACH EATER
>>150261794Didn't think Duane would coin the term squishies
>>150263254>The asexual thing comes from the perma child brainTechnically correct, but getting scientific about Sette's story role as a stand in for a fae is arguably the one thing we shouldn't do>>150263224Stock was told sette was to accompany them to the boat. But whether she was meant to go with the board - I don't know, does that mean Nary 100% sold her?But did Nary actually know that sette had divine powers? Wasn't he lied to about Duane's nature?> Somehow she is only one aware that she is a shit write.She's a rookie, eager to learn and has done real good for a whore's child. Her enviroment was against her.
>>150261150I never really got to care that much for ana and knock desu
>>150262903Sure, lemme look at the options in 4chanX between chapters.
>>150259780>>150259798was his saeelit scars ever explained? or he was just a nutjob in life?
>>150263734Some sort of super-religious nutjob probably since those are the scars worn by Ssaelit clergy when preaching, as we see in Duane's flashback.
>>150263540Ana says that nary said Sette is the only one that should be handling Duane and that she needed to stay around and Stock says Nary probably wouldn't be too upset if they killed>>150259502>>150259524Clearly they don't know the deal. Nary seemingly is aware that it has to be Sette pulling Duane. Otherwise he probably would have suggested the amulet himself>does that mean Nary 100% sold her?Yeah Beadman confirms it in his conversation with Nary.
>>150263540Nary would have been more than canny enough to know that talisman was a phony. Anybody who can read Continental who looked at it would know it's just a Beadman's Better Bauble, not actual Blacktongue tech.
>>150263794>and that she needed to stay around and Stock says Nary probably wouldn't be too upset if they killed>confirms itBut it's weird to keep her around for 10 years after she stopped growingNo wait. I don't think he sold Sette. . I think I missed out on a bit of the plan: Stock was going to travel with the silver and Duane for a month. So presumably sette was meant have gone with them as Ana reminded Stock, and return after they delivered Duane. Sette was not getting betrayed at any point, just informed of the change of plans.So Sette fucked the whole plan up by bailing on Stock to help Duane, made even worse as Stock goes nuts when the lizards told him about Ana's betrayal.Meaning the mask was an actual redundancy in case Stock was right about Sette being too retarded. And he was. Jeez.Of course, there's always the possibility that the plan was a red herring to let Nary hand sette over to the handlers of her brother. Whether that's a betrayal or the best thing Nary ever did for Sette is up for debate.Real question now is: Did Cutter straight up fuck up?
>>150263794>>150263540Let me just clear up He sold her to Winalis not fucking Starfish
>>150259826rekt
>>150259853someone fapped to this
>>150262892Did we really need a comedy skit in the middle of mankind's collective bad memeories gaining shape and killing people?
>>150259903tfw no elk gf
>>150264267me I did
We'll start Chapter 11 here and finish it up in a new thread, should get most of the way through.
>>150259662>only kids are scared of smoke eelsHa...
>>150259756So at some point we're going to get an explanation of what this fucker's deal is, right? Like I know he's the author's "he can make me worse" OC but he keeps showing up and as far as I can tell he's yet to do anything relevant.
>>150259954Why did Sette never smell the eels haunting Duane's corpse at night?
>>150266090Not sure what you're getting at here. What difference does it make if she did?
>>150261150Good girl, Pantoffel!
>>150262924you mean blondie? no thats vanilla she's in the song and sette bites her finger off>>150265556he's probably gonna be explained in book 2- probably related to the murkoph twins coming up
>>150259331I can no longer read this as anything but cope bullied by blondes for having to tits>>150261612means nothing, people who die of old age at 25 have different social boundaries, right?
>>150261272>but perhaps my son will one day be;_;
>>150261401Starfish was the one who knew the most the whole time besides Cutter.
>>150266634>we shall be friends!Don't think that ever happened
>>150261478>actor in palefaceCresce, that's racist!
>>150266427>if this plot demands Duane Aldier. the worst of duane Adelier is what I shall deliverKeikaku doori
>>150261777what where those beasts anyways? agglomerated squiggles and eels?
>>150262023>>150262004muhdik
ALL the Adeliers
>>150261351>where's the mask it wore during the day?A normal plod would just stop moving if you removed its pymaric mask, right? Do we even know that for sure? Makes this exchange kind of odd.
>>150262222>when you allow sh*rt*s into your citySEE A SHARTEMAKE HIM DEPART
>>150267149sad ghost boy
>>150262377I wonder if Murkoph's black goo is related to the black sterilizing goo that black tongues ejaculate.
>>150263105>he fucked it up in jealousygodDAMN it was all there and it was too brainlet to realize it
>>150263115>and the old god will deal with himIts this manipulation or does cutter say this plainly that sette's adventure wasn't actually the plan?
>>150263313sette no bullshit mode is a delightwish cope let her aura farm more often
>>150262908>First silver is still silver! And what are the properties of silver?Duane can't help but to try and teach at every opportunity.
>>150267905Cutter and bastion both have incomplete parts of the plan.
>>150266391SHIPPED
>>150264120>But it's weird to keep her around for 10 years after she stopped growingNary hates his stagnant existence in Sharteshane and has always suspected Sette will become his ticket into greater heights. So far that gamble has been correct.
>>150266730DAMN quisley's death was a call back to these lines
>>150265891>a glamour that projects itself to the preferences of every viewercool
>>150267186>we've never seen the bastion assassination arca shame
>>150267631rekt
>>150268765We do get a choppy version later on.
>>150268684yeah perception glamours are neat, taking a 'perceptive sphere' and kinda... putting it on top. duane mentions he'd pulled some beauty from the woods at one point early on, i thinkbastion here was probably pulling on like... "wright" and "normal" mayhaps? but based on what people hear about the disguised bastion, how he treats them... i like how the guard sees a sharte after being told bastion is being suspicious
>>150266770Wasn't startfish recommended by bastion?
Ay, OP here, dealing with CAPTCHA/IP ban bullshit, will hopefully be continuing soon.
>>150267149Poor Timofey
New thread for the rest of today's storytime.>>150269131
>>150267042Yeah, they just turn into freaky/primordial shit because they're a bunch of random memories without proper context
