After over a week of non stop sounding we are unsounded once more
>>154705429Magistratus looks like an ayy lmao, the crazy ulestrian hobo was onto something
>>154705429I wonder how much the coppers weigh?Also Milka is really screwed if Will is already spotting how she doesn't act like the man he knows does.
Only a few more hours until the second Kickstarter. I hope the stretch goals and extras are better this time around.
>>154705429Why are they called coppers? They're fucking electric crimson
Couple of questions.Just reread Unsounded and I was wondering a bunch of stuff>Why RBB keep Jivi around instead of cutting him up like the rest of the captives>Who was that weird psycho in the Khert, I swear it feels like he was never explained
>>154705474Still more human looking than his breeding projects.>>154705491Her glamour is definitely breaking soon. Wonder what's going to happen to her when the rest of the crowd sees a ssoud girl there. And in front of a VITS council member no less.
>>154705474Fucker looks more like a vampire than the guy named Vampire
>>154705626They kept Jivi around to keep the places they were camping tidy and do other menial labor, and probably to be frank because Starfish enjoyed making him suffer for being too rebellious and free spirited. Later they kept him around because Starfish needed Quigley and his construct, and Quigley made that a condition of his employment. Since he had the power to enforce it, Jivi stayed. Murkoph, the khert psycho, is a mystery that will be addressed in this book. The seeds of it were planted last book.
holy fuck this looks dumb as fuck.
>>154705429>the plat boys rearranging themselves into Magistratus' chairReminds me of the thicc lady throne in The Thief and the Cobblerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qxdjyb_3bcYThose inbred freaks are stronger than the look though, which makes sense. Also:>forgot his armsWhat happened to your training, "Lilleord"? That's first level soldiering! Thackeray needs to make him run some laps.
>>154705429Every once in a while one of those zombie plats has to die from being sat on too long. Wonder if they just drag the corpse away, or fully weekend at bernies it to avoid too much embarassment
>>154705669>Murkoph, the khert psycho, is a mystery that will be addressed in this bookAh ok I was worried I was speed reading like I did the first time and missed some shit
>>154705703Well the exchange with Quigley and Starfish about Jivi, plus Jivi being shown cleaning up, are both pretty explicit so you might have been a bit. As far as Murkoph goes there is enough in the story and extra material to at least theorize, but we don't have any answers yet and I'm not sure we have enough meaningful information yet for our theories to amount to much.
>>154705702If they were selectively bred for endurance and properly trained on appropriate postures to take, I would think it should be okay. Not comfortable, but okay. I also get the impression that Valentin is quite possessive of them and might not want them to expire so easily as that.
>>154705580KEK
>>154705580The subjects depicted on this image are 10 years old. Just plat things.
>>154705626>who is MurkophSsael>why Jivi not pain bodybagBecause he's The Man
>>154705491Will seeing through the glamour isn't going to break it for anyone else unless he does something stupid like saying "MIKAILA???" and then everybody starts to doubt itBut I'm sure our boy could never fuck up in this way. Cool under pressure, quick wit, and not even a little bit traumatized that's our Will
>>154705429I'm amused that this is how we find out what the rectangles the plats are wearing are for. Having your own personal living chair so you don't have to directly sit on the yucky benches of the lower classes is precisely the sort of thing a rich person would have.
>>154705429Honestly, if the Lions of Mercy had better helmets they'd mog these geffie edgelords. That one ald captain attacking the queen's bunker had the right idea.
Website comment:>And we’re back! To refresh: After their rivals the Gefendur threatened to build a shrine to their gods right across from their own most important temple, the local Ssaelit challenged them to a duel! William volunteered to fight and was fortuitously joined by one of the Order’s best spellcasters, whom everyone had thought too injured to participate. Let’s see how it goes!>A reminder that the volumes 3&4 crowdfund launches July 20th on KICKSTARTER [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ironspike/unsounded-book-3-and-4/]. 850 pages of new-to-print, newly edited and retouched content. Let’s go!>~AshleyPatreon comment:>I really like this page. I like seeing the function of Valentin's ambulatory bouquets, I like how he has to cross his arms over his knees because they are just too long to do anything else with. I like "What the crowd provides" (ominous) and I like Will being a spaz who just needs to get off Lilleord's nuts.>For the duel I experimented with a dry brush for some panels, like the last one here, and it reminds me of in old anime how it would sometimes switch to pans across charcoal-rendered static illustrations. There were shots in the original Berserk series like that :3 Know the ones I mean?>Kickstarter starts at some point tomorrow! You know I'll update again when it's live :)
>>154705702>>154705788They're plats. They probably cast some of the ground's solidity into their spine.
>>154706248less that the benches are yucky and more that he's too comically large to be comfortable on them
>>154705692The Plat doesn’t have his arms either desu be fair.
>>154706248He’s just too damn big for regular chairs anon.
[The Man intensifies]
>>154707249>>154707249Ssael deleted the Other Contient, where all the lore secrets are.
>>154707249The Man's motto after entering the khert: Move fast and break things.
>>154707249With stakes like that it's almost no wonder the process got fucked up. Changing reality as a being subject to that reality seems kind of doomed.
>>154707453These kids were never meant to learn the language of the gods.
>>154707296>Sonum Ssuckerberg Ssael
>>154705429Everything's coming up nicely here. The two casters in the duel are unarmed. Mikaila's going to stunt on a plant. Will's gonna go mano-a-mano vs. a fellow spear user and show off his skill. Rosseau's gonna disappoint his stepdaddy and get a cigarette put out on his dick by his wife. Everyone's happy.
>>154705429Did Ashley forget the symbol on the Ssaelit shield in the last panel, did she not want to draw it blurring or is Mikaila casting on it? It kind of has a mirror sheen look, if she blinds Sackheim off it that would be a fun callback to Duane's assassination.
>>154707576The senet beasts were like Prometheus handing the gift of fire (pymary) to the spiderpaws.
>>154706351>A reminder that the volumes 3&4 crowdfund launches July 20th on KICKSTARTERGotta check in with Iron Circus, still haven't gotten my first volumes, despite doing their address check in ASAP.
>>154707662I'm in the same boat, and from checking comments it looks like a lot of non-US people are. They're shipping only a portion of the overall ordered books per week. I've got some criticism of them here, I get they're on a timeline for any crowdfunding but I think waiting until #1 was fully completed before launching #2 is pretty commonsense.If you're US I would definitely get in touch. If you're not and you do contact them, post here what you get back please.
>>154707683I'm US, but that special part of the US that gets shafted on shipments because of the whole "non-contiguous" thing.
>>154707704That's crazy you're living at the CIA's reptillian moon embassy man, IDK if you should be posting that here.
>>154707704I'm in Aus and I only got notification that my books 1 and 2 had shipped last week. And by ship I assume actual ship, not aerio aribo. I guess they did all their "other overseas" after mainland US and euroland.
>>154707762Nah, I'm euro and haven't even had shipping notification yet.
>>154707762I’m a leaf and mine hasn’t shipped yet.
>>154707762I got charged for shipping a month ago and still haven't received my copies, or even any notification that they've actually shipped at all, despite being in the US. It's ridiculous that the second campaign is starting this soon when so many people are in the same boat.
>>154707827I mean they have posted updates saying they're sending them out batch by batch and iirc shipping was originally delayed when costs spiked because of Iran. But I overall agree. If you had to delay shipping 2-3 months, you should delay the second KS launch by the same amount.
>>154707279Wasn't there some thing about how we could literally be superimposed on Kasslyne and we'd never know?
>>154705491With Valentin's height he probably is over 400 lbs despite being a lanklet. Coppers need to eat and work out constantly to not end up looking like that though, whatever makes them big is not like glut.
>>154707988Theoretically possible Coppers have lighter bones or something.
>>154707762>>154707777>>154707815I wonder who the furthest away Unsounded reader is. There have to be some non-Anglosphere fans.
>>154708135Russians really like the comic, relatively speaking.
>>154708222of course they do, russia is alderode.
I just got my books Saturday
>>154708135Well, If you use the antipodes website to find the opposite point of the globe from Cope, it's about 1500kms west of Perth, in the Indian Ocean. So being in Perth this is basically the furtherest away from Cope place I guess.
>>154708441So you might actually be the most distant fan! And for you the pages are upside down, and they are uploaded in the future, is that right?
>>154708241It's at least close enough if you squint. I think there are shades of other countries there. The government and religious schism make me think of the Swiss Republics.
>Miki is going to have speak out her spells in order maintain the illusion losing her tacit advantageGonna take some bullshit to beat a trained plat
>>154708536In all likelihood she's tacit casting in the bottom panels. By pretending her throat is injured she can probably also pretend she's just speaking very quietly. But if she needs to go tacit to save Will, I can see that being how she gets found out.
>>154705616To keep with the mineral / metal theme of the castes. I guess "Ruby" would be a little too glamorous. They're already giant immortals, no need to flatter them.
>>154708506Yep, we get the posts 12 hours before florida. This isn't a paradox, it's science.
>>154708555They don't need to scream spellery. The only person that is in a position to notice and make a fuss would be Will.
>>154707662They mentioned they can only do so many shipments per week, so they're going to be sending OUT shipments over several weeks, and then on top of that you have to wait for it to arrive.
>>154708375Well at least somebody did. I've been checking the mail every few days.
>>154709000Mikki didn't get a face scar, her helmet cut healed, didn't it? >>154709089Supposedly they're shipping everything by first week of August, maybe second
>>154708555Suddenly, that lip reading study that Vlad was doing seems more relevant now.
>>154709824I never doubted OUR LAD VLAD. His wisdom is prophetic.
New Kickstarter's up. No early bird special this time though, it looks like.
Kickstarter is up now.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ironspike/unsounded-book-3-and-4/Cloth map available as an extra but otherwise most of the extras are either the previous Unsounded books or the same as before.
>>154709958>>154709975Yes, slightly surprised no commission slots or early birds. But despite not having my 1 and 2 yet I've backed for 3 and 4 and the map. A mock-up picture of the map would probably be a good idea!
>>154709000>>154708555My Interpretation was that she would have cast slower to keep up the grift. Otherwise people assume Lilleord is some rap god spitting out Tainish at the speed of light.
>>154707683Agreed. If I hadn't already gotten my books I think I would be more hesitant to back this, though the high trust in Ashley would probably carry me through. It's also expensive though, for international readers especially. Giving a little time to forget that cost and a physical reminder to make it feel worth it is important. I guess they want to really make a push to get it all in stores, but I do think slowing down would benefit the Kickstarters.
>>154705429>No casting directly on your opponent>Stabbing them with a big spear? Go right ahead
>>154710052I believe last time the commission slots opened later too. They'll come. But the lack of early bird is disappointing, I agree. I just want better add ons. The map is the only relevant one which is better than nothing, but still.>A mock-up picture of the map would probably be a good idea!Agreed. It might not exist yet though as more than her sketch, which would not help sell people on it. They'll probably add one soon, but she's been busy editing the comic for print and working on the current pages.
>>154710089I think it's just the actual timing of the shipping was later than they originally planned for because of external events. But that's pretty much exact my position - if I didn't have total faith in the author and if this wasn't literally my favourite current fantasy work, I would think be thinking twice about backing without having the first 2 books. But I have to support our Cope :)
>>154710105You can't cast directly on your opponent in an official pymary duel either. I think it's mostly a way of encouraging art and skill. If you can just core leech someone or melt their flesh, it's not much of a show. It's not done to protect people's lives or safety. People frequently die in pymary duels even with this restriction. Even the crowd can get hurt.
>>154710143Yeah, I get you. They should have been more willing to shift their production schedule to match any delays with fulfillment of the first Kickstarter. And honestly, even though it takes time to run and print a Kickstarter, there might be people who are still getting their first books when it comes time to get the third and fourth. That's a bad look, and I think they're overextending themselves. Iron Circus is a fairly small publisher. I think they mean well but they need to slow down.
>>154710189They are a small publisher but they're a very industrious one. They're publishing a ton of stuff, Unsounded is just one of those things and I imagine Ash doesn't have an overriding say if they want something to go live. They probably have a schedule planned out for the entire year.
>>154710242Yeah I'm aware they're publishing many other books concurrently. But if they're having trouble with shipping fulfillment and publishing more, including sequels to things that aren't yet fully shipped and entirely separate stories, that's part of overextending themselves.
That's hit the threshhold anyway so they can say funded in 40 minutes or whatever
>>154710280Yeah, that's fair. I have no idea if hiring some extra hands to pack out the shipment in shorter time was an option for them, what their bottom line is or anything. As a KS-using business, as long as you aren't taking funds from one project to fulfil previous ones I think you can stand a few hiccups. See CMON for what happens if you are doing that. But as sole fans of Unsounded, obv we don't give a fuck about the other stuff and just want these books in our hands as smoothly as possible. And from that PoV they probably should have just done this next month.
>they couldn't just use plods to pack and ship the booksfucking inbred backwards goat-tupping ssaelit
>>154710052>and the mapThe what now? I don't see that listed.
>>154710467The cloth map that we voted on in Tumblr and which is included as an add-on in the current campaign.
>>154710476I don't see it listed under any of the tiers, but I'd be very interested in that
>>154710242I've checked a few of the kickstarters but Unsounded might be one of the biggest partners they have. I've seen a few completely projects that haven't reached amounts we hit in a week. Some how despite being talked about in like 3 places, quite a few people read sette's odyssey. Or at least a lot more willing to pay for it.
>>154710325Yeah. There's more than one way to overextend- expanding too quickly in any direction can be a problem. Taking on new employees, publishing too quickly, sequels too early. Hopefully whatever they do is a reasonable pace and they're able to keep up. Ultimately as long as ICC doesn't do anything that damage Ashley's or Unsounded's reputation and we get all our books I don't mind too much. And I doubt they're likely to do that. But as you say, one more month out would've been better.
>>154710476>and which is included as an add-on in the current campaign.Can you please explain this more clearly? I don't see any map add on in the campaign.
>>154710484It's an add-on after you back.>>154710490I've been reading and enjoying this for so long that I'd probably pay double or more just to have these books. I think there's a pretty hardcore fanbase for Unsounded spread out across a few internet places. Ashley has I guess cultivated that by being so engaged with readers for so long.
Signed on disliking how quickly the second Kickstarter came about, but confirmed that there was no other choice. The schedule's set 18 months ahead, and entwined with major booksellers, the printer overseas, the prepress people who build the book files, and the other books that the publisher publishes. There was nothing I could do :(But other than the last leg of shipping, everything is on schedule. The first two books are in the States from overseas, and my part of the next books has been completed and sent to prepress. I get the cost concern (fuck do I get it) but this publisher is good for fulfilment. If you buy books, you're gonna get the books.Thanks to anyone supporting this shit! :)
>>154710484>>154710518
>>154710484>>154710518You have to select a tier, and then you can add it on top of the tier. It's a really clunky system and they should really advertise the existence of the map on the main kickstarter page because it's a hot item for any fan of this series. Unless you go to Ashley's wiki you won't find an actual map of this story anywhere.
>>154710484It's a $30 add on, not an individual tier. When you back it you can add it on in the following page.>>154710490The fanbase is small but rabidly loyal. I think they publish mostly things with slightly wider (still niche) appeal that have fewer diehard fans willing to spend money.
>>154710550FUCK this layout btw
>>154710490Unsounded has lived off of its small but loyal fanbase since its inception. I think most of the readers have been reading it for a decade or longer. Webcomics as a format really had a moment in the mid 00s and now they struggle against video format content. Younger generations just aren't as interested in them.
Well it is once again funded only a few hours after going live.
>>154710518If you haven't already pledged, check the Extras page to find it. If you did pledge, click Manage yYour Pledge, just select whatever you previously went with, and then scroll down the Extra page. The map is about halfway down.
>>154710587It was less than an hour after I first got notification.
>>154710587Almost a 150% funded before the first day.
>>154710587It was at 75% like thirty minutes in.
there's another kickstarter?
>>154710609Just went live today and is already over 150% funded.
>>154710538The non-US shipping costs are insane but whatever, it's your comic, guess I'm paying that. Even across choppy waters the biggest upside of this entire thing is you were able to secure a publisher to print this entire series. As a reader that's all I want, that's fantastic, and I will be backing the ones next year for that reason. I'm so excited to have physical copies of Unsounded.
>>154710609Yeah, went live about an hour ago. This is for the next two books which are parts that the original Kickstarter run by Ashley never hit.>>154710538It's the kind of shit worth supporting.
>>154710538I've been a supporter of yours for a long time, I actually own the first 3 prints of the books you did, and still backed these kickstarters to get the new versions + goodies. I'm anxious for my books to arrive, but your confidence in the publisher is reassuring. Thanks for the hard work!
>>154710538I love this shit.
Well I'm in for $100 this time, that map was too good to pass up. Going to make a space on my shelf to have it rolled up next to the books, looking all interesting-like.
Sadly because RLM gave a positive review to the bogged out Nolanshit Odyssey I cannot in good conscience support this Kickstarter. They are hack frauds and so is anyone who supports them.
>>154707719If there was a reptilian moon embassy, it'd actually be completely natural to have people post normally and pretend to not be there to keep up appearances. Keep people guess.>>154707762They did say to only worry if you don't get any notifications by the time their next update for the volumes 1 and 2 kickstarter goes up saying they're wrapping up shipments. So probably another week or two before it's time to really worry.
>>154710518
Imagine you're an 18 year old Siberian conscript in the Donbas being tracked by an FPV drone and you throw down your weapon, you're crying, you're on your knees and through the lens of the drone the drone operator has this little moment of human mercy and then he thinks>fucking Russians stopped me fucking getting my fucking bratty lion girl internet webcomics >>>>:/And then he BLOWS YOU THE FUCK UP. Jesus Christ.
>>154710787Based. Should have dropped his friends too. No mercy for vatniks.
>>154710841You'd make an excellent Ssaelit paladin. Or a Gefendur one.
Did any eurobro receive their book yet?
>>154711173I saw someone from Spain posting a photo of theirs, so some do.
>>154710787Such is the fate of all who cross a Frummagem.
>>154711173Mine is almost there.
>>154705429The big red dude is so vampire-typed I refuse to believe he doesn't drink blood.
>>154712364He probably has a wine cellar full of pleasure distillations from the original Delicieu. The closest a man can become to an efheby.
>>154710695You should've known RLM were hack frauds after their Prequel Trilogy review.
>>154712636No, I saw the prequels in theatres when they came out so I know they suck.
>>154711960Needle should be injecting lower

You're not a digital-only peasant, are you, anon?
>>154713761Apparrently nobility comes with the lack of brains to attach my image to my post.
>>154713794>>154713761I envy you.
>>154713936If you don't have your books yet, you're not unsounded. And if you're not unsounded, what are you?
>book 2 tainish bonus chapter's verb second repeats the adjective textDid Ashley say anything about what that section's supposed to say about Verbs?
>>154713761>>154713794Never. You remembered to buy the map too, right Anon?
>>154710631>The non-US shipping costs are insaneHonestly, they're not that bad. I've bought big heavy art books from publishers like Flesk where the shipping was the same price as the book, and the books weren't cheap.Don't forget though, the books will also be sold through Amazon, so if you don't mind waiting you can probably get them with free Prime delivery.
>>154714643Damn, what's the middle?
>>154714709Mostly merch from the original kickstarters. Some prints, as well as a bookplate sketch/sticker, and both squish and eel pins. I never figured out what to stick Boo to so I wound up getting him framed. The magnet and whichever pin I didn't get from the Kickstarter I bought off Ashley directly. I have some bookmarks too but I didn't feel like hunting for them.
>>154713761>>154713794Wish I had money for a commission. It would be a lewd commission.
>>154714758>The magnet and whichever pin I didn't get from the Kickstarter I bought off Ashley directly.How does one do this? I don't even remember the bookplates being a thing.
>>154714871Same. If I get lucky enough to snag one I'm getting a (more) explicit version of >>154711960.
>>154714871IKTF. I'm about 30,000 words into my Brawny Peg Jizz; or the Memoirs of a Sharteshanian of Leisure; fanfic but I just can't make it sing the way an Ashley commission could.
>>154714939The bookplates are from the second of the original Kickstarters.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/502093706/unsounded-comic-volume-2/rewardsYou could get a custom black and white bookplate sketch of any character of your choosing. I remember someone saying they chose Ssael. I think a few others chose senets we hadn't seen yet at that point in the comic. It's probably my most prized possession.The magnet and pin I bought off of Ashley's shop on her website, it's mostly defunct now but I know she's opened the opportunity to buy leftover merch from her directly through email/paypal in the past. I don't know if she has anything but it doesn't hurt to ask if you're interested.
>>154715053Nice to see a fellow Anon who also scored both the pins. I raise you all three original volumes signed. My two bookplates are Duane and Mikaila. If you recognize the picture without the name, sup.
>>154715367I am bitterly jealous that I didn't get to attend any signings/cons Ash did. I know about them but I don't recall if the last one was before I started following or not. I first picked up the comic properly from the page where Jivi got new clothes at Iori's, but had been following it on /co/ for maybe 2-3 months before that. The day she does another one is the day I fly across the country to meet her. You definitely outdo my collection, I didn't even have the money to get my original copies sketched/signed from the Kickstarters, I was a broke recovering NEET back then.
>>154715604I feel you, I was a broke ass college student but I lived in Orlando so I could make it to the couple of conventions she did so I was just lucky. And though I have no physical record of it, the 2015 meetup each got to ask her one full-spoiler question. Mine still has not been revealed in the comic.
>>154715690This is the first time I might ever be jealous I don't live in Florida.
>>154715748I think she's mentioned potentially doing a signing at her local comic shop. Gotta get all the new volumes signed there so I can remain smugly superior to my fellow fans.
>new KOTH season drop on the same day as the kickstarterDid Ashley know?
>>154705429I wonder how this fight ends surely the geffies win
Jab Beadman's can do all that.
>>154718853But can you gloat about the slave labor used to make your pymaric chair having come from you personally rather than some entrepreneur? And you having specially bred those slaves for generations back to be tailor made to your needs as a chair? No. Beadman has gutter slaves, yours are pedigree.
>>154715367>>154715690Where was the Unsounded story even up to in 2015?
>>154719262Deadly Nevergreen pt2.
>>154719366Ah so you barely knew anything :). Was that the last con Ash was at?
>>154713431Is this better?
>>154718853I didn't even notice it was the plat kids he was literally sitting on jesus christ
>>154719570I dunno if they actually are kids. I think they might just be midgets.And with that born in mind, it's possible Goodwin the plat fighting is like 12 or something. Select for small size, select for early maturity, etc, etc. Valentin must have gone through so many failed generations to get his stock right. I'm completely convinced he eats plat meat too.
>>154719659haha
>>154719507Yes, it's perfect
I know there’s a slowdown with these KSes especially with this fandom because it’s small and dedicated rather than broad, so you probably hit the cap on everyone who’s been waiting to back pretty quickly. For anyone’s more familiar, is this one on track to beat the 1st?
>>154719659Goodheim looks burlier than the average plat, I think they're selecting for increased size to make them better at physical stuff too.
>>154720301It’s Goodwin and Sackheim iirc which also raises the possibility he was literally named for purpose i.e. ‘win good’.
Completely unrelated to the current page or the Kickstarter, but do you have a melody for Isabel Ne'er-do-Well in your head? Either one you've come up with yourself or based on a real song? Quick jaunt through the Q&A tumblr suggests it's supposed to be sea shanty-ish, but I can't quite come up with one I like for it
>>154721424You could ask Ashley if she has a canon meter. At least one person has sung it in the fanart contests:>https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/Contests/2026/2026_entries.htmlI find it hard to figure out because the words get a bit messy. In my head it's a very stop-start on the 'ells' and the kind of thing that might be more spoken than sung by a bunch of drunks. The sea shanty thing checks out for me because, as we all know, hell is in the ocean in this universe and the stopping-starting over the 'ells' I hear fits the pitch and yaw of a boat.But I can't sing, so I can't transfer my version to you.There are some other songs:>https://unsounded.fandom.com/wiki/Songs
>>154719980I spent the first two full days of last Kickstarter following, and the pledges were pretty consistent then. By day 3 it was slowing down a lot more. The pledges in the first Kickstarter did start dropping off in average price more slowly than this one, but we also started with the average pledge being around $100 for quite a while. I think having an actual piece of Unsounded merch you can get as an add on will encourage people to spend more. It's also all new to print material whereas the last books weren't, so no one is likely to sit them out for their old copies. Unfortunately I didn't keep any of my crazy scribblings when tracking how much everyone was donating on average across time, so I have little to compare it to properly. The biggest factor working against this one might be how soon it was after the other, and shipping costs. If ICC plays their cards right with better stretch goals that are more realistically priced, that too. Time will tell how things go.
>>154722062>100 for quite a whileFor the current one, that is. Lot of people getting the map and print volumes.
>>154721424Yeah, and it's nothing like >>154721843. Mine is a lot more lively and bouncy. I also sing it quite quickly. It's not the same melody as Ring Around the Rosie, but at least similar in feel to it. Something children would learn and sing as a game but that isn't likely to be performed.>>154721843Black Tongue Blues also got a fanmade version and it's become definitive to me. I had nothing in mind for how it was supposed to sound before, which is probably helpful, but it just feels right for Bastion. Now I hear it in my head anytime I'm reading through that scene.It's here at the bottom of the 2021 contest.https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/Contests/2021/2021_entries.html
>>154722219This made me reread the musical number and man I would kill to hear Ruck and Bastion in that chapter voiced by good VAs. So many good lines. Ruck trying this artificial politeness but just immediately and increasingly creating foreboding.
>>154722362The worst part about the artificial politeness is that I think Ruck sincerely believes he's being polite and charming. And he's actually trying to be. But that doesn't do anything to change what's lurking right underneath.
