>>151878766I don't understand where tom is going with thia none of this makes sense
>>151878766... Hot?An apprehensive and confused hot.
>>151878766Why does she need to get buff to draw lines
so the toothpick is going to kick everybody's ass with her barehands?
Holy shit, this comic is still going?>2005Yeah that's probably when I saw it last
>>151878766>Noa with so many glyphs around her body is now becomes like Simon from Infinity Train when he went crazy.I see what you did there, Tom.
>>151878814Because she needs sheer power to write the mega glyph
>>151878814Why does she need/want a glyph that's charged with gainz? What compelled her to go down this path in the first place?
>>151878916It's all so very unclear.
>>151878820That's funny. I guess the glyphs don't aid in combat. They're the back story for why she got buff.
>>151878766Oh she's CRAZY crazy. Okay.
>>151878916She tried asking online for help drawing and really misunderstood what daily exercises were
>>151878806it COULD if each symbol holds a usual muscular female's worth of strength. if they all together just store what would be achievable natty she will get folded by Goerge who runs on magic roids, has a combat training and can teleport.
>>151878814>Why does she need to get buff to draw linesShe doesn't.She's legitimately a brilliant magic user. But for a split second she saw something incredible, something godlike. Then she spiraled into madness trying to replicate it. One particular twist of her madness was that she convinced herself that her inability to replicate it was due to weakness on her part. Her stupid flesh mortal body is just too weak. So she started working out to get stronger, augmenting her workouts with the brilliant sigils she DOES know how to use, telling herself this is somehow helping her in a mission to once again see that single perfect unified magic theory symbol. It's almost certainly nonsense. She cracked. But she cracked in a way that she's spent years hacking her own body to make it as powerful as possible, pouring time, effort, blood, sweat, tears, and insane magic into making her body stronger.
>>151879026Just to heat a cup of water.
>>151879046A crummy cup of water, she should have went up the hill to catch pokemon creatures.
>>151879046She thought she was being clever with her "unique" way of heating water, but it burned her. Being a cleverbitch she tried to find a workaround, and one night she stumbled upon something beyond anything they taught at school. She's been trying to hold it in her head, but... she can't. She failed at her demonstration and nearly burned a kid's hand off. "Whoops, didn't get it quite right." Her room is covered in creepy glowing glyphs from her attempts to draw the master symbol, glyphs that made Tom go "they're not meant to do that." She's gone a little crazy trying to replicate the thing she saw. Possibly a lot crazy.
Every witch will have an extended backstory detailing how they ruined their life over some stupid misunderstanding which will all tie back to Jenny and Jack getting mad at Annie for something they did.
>>151879074And all of them are about them cucking themselves in some over-elaborate way.
>>151879069And kat will decode it instantly because it is the same old code that the golem/robots diego made and has that in their cores.
>>151879069This sounds to me like something that comes from Dead Space, of how people goes insane once they've been exposed to the Marker
>>151879026despite what most underachieving children-brained normies believe, drawing is extremelly tiring.
>>151879100It's not >I NEED TO GET FUCKING RIPPEDtiring it's>oh god I fucked my arm uptiring
>>151879100She collapsed after failing to draw a line.Drawing can definitely be tiring, but in this case the problem is that the thing she saw is just too complicated for her to process and remember correctly, it's beyond her capabilities, but she can't admit that to herself. So she blamed her stupid weak meatshell and has spent years chasing gains, deluding herself that if she turns her body into a Temple of Power she'll be able to draw The Face Of God.
>>151879107It's the same. It's highly advised to beginner artists to start working up, there is no precision with a weak faggot wanker arm
>>151879100That's a SHOCKINGLY silly take.
>>151878766>from a fat blob to a qt
>>151879100dont forget to subscribe to my patreon
>>151879388She should've stopped at bottom left, maybe bottom right; as is she's a bit too noodlyAlso what happened to her eyesight that she needs glasses now? The runes start eating those after the body fat ran out?
>>151879449Yes.
I know we're all tired of the comic subverting our expectations but I actually wouldn't mind if parley oneshot her after all this
>>151879477I can't wait until we get one of those character close-up shots and Noa just looks like pic related
gunnershit fail!
And so the witch teachers just let this all happen because....?why do we need 50 pages of this literally nobody character's backstorynot even the head fucking bosswhat the fuck is tom doing, besides some of the shittiest writing and pacing ever conceived
>>151879100My arm sometimes gets tired if I draw for a long time but I find it fun as fuck so I just take a half hour break and get back to it no problem.
>>151878814My guess is if anybody could just draw the glyphs and create magic, then any cunt could do it. Witches probably have to channel something into it, for the glyphs to work. The glyphs they're taught are old and well establish, so they're relatively easy to use. Noa is trying to work outside those boundaries, so it's resisting.
>>151878820Toothpick is going to be stomped in a fraction of the time it took this training montage to be written.
So are the nigger and the fat one and.. the other one, whatever the fuck she was, going to get long drawn out overly melodramatic jojo bleach backstories too?
I stopped reading when omega diedIs it true this is s flashback in a flash forward If so that is hilarious
>>151880193yesit's bad and pointless and dumbyou were right to quit
>>151878766If only women in the west was this dedicated to losing weight.
Doesn't matter. None of it matters, nothing matters at all. These people who are perfectly willing to murder for no reason at all? Nothing will happen to them. No consequence will occur. Nothing will change. Nothing will happen. They're the equivalent of any other story's big-bad-villain and nothing at all is going to happen to them, they're not going to be punished, they're not going to learn, just nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Because that's what this webcomic is. It's nothing. Nothing ever happens, nothing ever goes anywhere. Consequences do no exist, these murderers will very happily and easily get away with it and it'll never be mentioned again.
So how crazy will the redhead girl be when her work was just supposed to be theoretical. Jenny is fine with noas frankenrunes but Effie's stuff scared her
>>151881975Someone theorised in a previous thread that she's into necromancy, where her active involvement would imply something went wrong. Until shown otherwise, that's what I'm choosing to believe.
