Due to rampant stupidity by Skeptics, and time issues, I'm only going to be on TWeb in my own (tektonics.org) section from now on. Deal with it.

I take offense to the comment that all of Pepper's proposals were a way for getting access to him.
"Years ago, I mean decades ago, I read a quote about politicians performing quid pro quo favors for campaign cash, and whether or not we could prove it. The guy who was quoted opined that it was difficult to determine. He noted that in many cases, the payoff might not take the form of votes on legislative action -- those might be detectable, and so are avoided -- but could take subtler forms, like the question that is never asked at a hearing.
The media's doing a terrific job of not asking questions it doesn't want to know the answer to. It doesn't ask these questions in bulk, and the great volume of questions it doesn't ask makes it cheap to not ask questions.
And it passes these savings on to you, the customer." Ace

I never got an answer back.

Oh great, a new episode. Interesting start, I have no idea where it might be going, which makes it all the more entertaining.

I think you forgot to affix enough postage to get the proposal through the transwarp dimensional conduit.

I did already mention somewhere that Eidolon will be giving an oral history of Hearthstone at the gathering, so we can look to that upcoming. Also probably obvious that we'll see a developing Brom-Sheila relationship.
Near the end of the story, though, I have a bomb to drop that might just scare the gedweezers out of everybody....
Yep -- thanks. Fixed.In the last frame, did you mean "direct action"?
Thank you! Your compliments will be forwarded to my fashion consultant. Originally posted by Teallaura
Oh...wait....
I'll be rotating between the three storylines (RP #6, RP #1, Eidolon bonus story) for a while.

Sorry....no.
It''ll be about three weeks. Two reasons...one is that I will be away for about a week soon, and I'll tell more about that later when I'll also be letting some other news out.
Second reason is that I want to do a little more promotion of the Hearthstone stories, and because I'm not happy with the older version of RP #1, I want to fix it up first. (ST #1 will also get a facelift, though not as extensive; and on up through ST #4, less each time.) Also want to give subscribers some stuff to read, so the bonus stories will be in the mix from now on.

Those decorations that the Ketterlings are putting up resemble Chinese Spring Festival.

(Note: Am I allowed to say "Congratulations" in Chinese [something people say a lot during Spring Festival]? I know that certain forums don't allow any words from a foreign language to be spoken in case of cussing or insults.)Last edited by T-Shirt Ninja; April 13th 2007 at 05:23 PM.

This is a great installment, JP.
I'm looking forward to seeing how things unfold--though it's a shame it'll take a while before the next one gets up.
On the second page, last panel, do you mean for Brom to say that the covenant proposals that Pepper's gotten "were just 'back door' proposals" etc., etc.?

Oh, well I had to ask.
I know it will be worth the wait.
I guess I could read previous segments again while I wait.

I don't know of any rule against.(Note: Am I allowed to say "Congratulations" in Chinese [something people say a lot during Spring Festival]? I know that certain forums don't allow any words from a foreign language to be spoken in case of cussing or insults.)
Look at it this way....if this all works out, I'll be able to spend more time doing this. Originally posted by JB
That said....upon reflection, since the next Eidolon installment is just three pages, and the next RP #1 revamp will just be artistic reworks with new narrative...I *might* be able to get up one more installment of this story in two weeks...
Nah, it's supposed to say. "&*^%$#!"On the second page, last panel, do you mean for Brom to say that the covenant proposals that Pepper's gotten "were just 'back door' proposals" etc., etc.? Thanks.
