exposition for the WHOLE FAMILY!!!!



but yup, we've got us a massive memory rewriting, though our heroes got lucky and happened to be awake at the time.


dream mist and the concept of munna/musharna has always stuck out as quite exploitable and creepy to me, so yup, plot device


farenheit 451 and 1984 are the dominant influences for this dystopia.

I didn't make a direct joke about it to keep from breaking the more serious tone, but note that they're having their serious exposition meeting at a little tykes table set with chairs way too small :3

broke this page up into 2 parts since it's big/keep the next part separate from here so this exposition can stand alone a bit better.


enjoy

I find it extremely ironic that they burned Fahrenheit 451.

The weird thing is, in the Anime, Cilan likes trains.

ohhhh, that's quite interesting to know. this idea came about by the roller coaster train like things in her gym, didn't know that about Cilan

yeah I know that feel, I'll end up skimming them if I feel I can still get the gist of them with the art, and oh thanks, I do try to keep the word count down as much as I can, but at times you just need to lay out a lot of specifics to get a solid foundation of something out in the open and coherent. glad you find this element interesting

As I said: the Dream Mist stuff is so great~ It really adds a disturbing, twisted underside to your nuzlocke I honestly did not expect anything like this when I started reading Odd Ones, because your art is so bright, and funny x3 But yes, you know this is a pleasant surprise- and I'm glad you're doing something like this! Just so you know, just because I didn't expect it, doesn't mean it's coming out of the blue or seems forced. No, it does fit in very well- especially when you look back upon behaviour of characters and the whole Dictator Fennel thing ^w^

Also Just' cause ma boi likes playin with trains, don't mean he can't take down no evil overlord- mmmm-hmmm!

OddPenguin In reply to Loki-Wings [2013-03-03 15:33:57 +0000 UTC]

oh ho, if you think this is a disturbing underside and you liked it, then BOY will you like some of the characters later on, particularly N. I had to be careful how I incorporated twisted elements in, so I've been building things up early on, fennels element started early as 10, Bianca's has hinted at things since pg 7, that case of where foreshadowing and stuff really pays off and helps the elements have more payoff and can be more believable. I've always been a fan of having contrasting changes in tone, so these twisted notions make for surprising elements going by the art. thanks a lot :3



MMMM MMMM, FENNEL GURL, you got no clue what you be dealing with now!!

Pretty obvious where this is going: Aoshi ditches Eric, who is none-the-wiser, and becomes a trainer himself.

There are other ways to deal with threats like: treat them like they're crazy, ignore them, and sabotage everything they have/do. Eh. Looks like Fennel isn't as smart as she thought.

OddPenguin In reply to Ryuuhime00 [2013-03-02 12:40:35 +0000 UTC]

she could be doing those too, maybe Alder just didn't feel like listing it/forgot it. don't blame evil innocent kind fennel as if she isn't smart, Alder is the one to blame here

"Only if you honestly believe that the trainer over there playing with Thomas Trains like a toddler is capable of defeating the region's new overlord."

That is an epic quote. Great job.

oh thanks, I've been getting sick of the standard speech cliches like " this is a dangerous mission, you may not come out unwounded, if you're brave enough step forward" , so I figured out a different way of saying it, it sounded funny in my head, so I went with that quote, glad you like

serious stuff for sure, I don't know if I'd trust a kid playing with Thomas trains to save the world from such a twisted evil. but you never know, maybe you can find strengths in the oddest of place. having supermans help would ease my concerns greatly though for their world

if they were awake then their minds were unaffected, but Fennel's been diligent in hunting down such people.
