Alicia and Hannah, while both members of the paranormal community, come from vastly different subcultures. Hopefully, I’ve been able to articulate with their worldviews.
And while they are different, they both have some similarities. In this case, fights. The outcomes are different, but they still happen and they both accept them as being part and parcel of their culture, the “normal”, if you will. I plan on. Explore the differences I’ve outlined here in further chapters.
This page is a little reminder that while Alicia and Hannah may look human, they are most certainly not human. The discussion of the lethality of fights is not a normal part of conversations, after all, nor is the casual acceptance.
Okay, I’ll admit it. It’s a pretty simple layout for the page, just the two of them talking, no backgrounds. But I like it. I like how it came out. I also like the interplay between Alicia and Hannah.
Coming on a little strong there, Alicia….
Woulda gotten this one out earlier, but life intervened, as it often does. Anyways, new character, Stephanie. She’s one of the staff of Barking Mad Mike’s.
Noteable points about her:
-she joined in ’96.
-she speaks without moving her mouth.
-when she does open her mouth, there is nothing there expect a black void. No teeth, no tongue, nothing.
-nobody knows what the hell she is. The only people who do know are Stephanie herself, Mike, and Peach, and they’re not saying anything.
-the bar patrons say she smells of stone and metal.
-her movements are “off”, like the characters in a CG cut scene from a mid-Nineties videogame.
-Despite how unnerving and odd her mannerism’s can be, she is well liked by the patrons because of her very cheerful demeanor and sweet nature.
-does not eat, drink, sleep, or rest.
-lives in a small closet on the second story of the bar that Mike lets her have free of charge.
-is surprisingly good at gardening and has a herb and tomato garden in the adjacent lot that Mike owns. Also has a prize bonsai tree.
-is confused by the existence of Poughkeepsie, NY.
Also, Peach has discovered why you shouldn’t wave flyswatters at Hornets, especially if they have Hellfires.
