Driftwood 8 38

Not to spoil too much, but while I obviously enjoy drawing all these make-out scenes (almost as much as I enjoy drawing Samona), they actually do have a deeper significance for the plot … :3

Oh yeah, and this will probably be the longest Driftwood chapter ever.

I suppose there is not much point, plot-wise, in the first scene on this page, but I just couldn’t stop it from pouring out on the page … V`(oo)´V

Oh, and by the way … To all the jealous Ronyuk-lovers and/or non-pederasts who have difficulties understanding how anybody could find romantic interest in Willie: You clearly don’t know what English with a Geordie (Newcastle upon Tyne) accent sounds like. :op

Here is an approximate chart where we compare Willie and Eva:

Willie______________ Eva__________________
Kinda cute +1                         Massive boobs +50
Tsundere -1                             Stupid sense of humour +25
Loli +/-0                                   Red hair +40
Commie +10                           Badass +10
Geordie +100                          Russian +500___________
…………………….. 111 …………………………… 625

(At around 100 points we enter the level “would definitely go out with”.)

This page is a bit late because at first I wrote some script that wasn’t right, but as usual it took me a day or two to realise it … V`(oo)´V

Also, today was the hourly comics day!

Update notice, January 31st: Next page will be up tomorrow! Sorry … ;_;

Part of me really hated cutting the scene there, but I should probably save some energy (and pages), as this is not the last make out scene in this chapter … :3

Yeah, I really can’t stand it when comics that involve a love story spend a dozen volumes building up to the EPIC KISSING SCENE, and then it turns out that the kissing scene is just one measly panel (and no tongue!). Bah!

SO. FRENCH KISSING IN FICTION.

Considering how relatively hard it was to find any good reference material, it might actually not be so common. (Correct me if I’m wrong :3 …)
I wonder if the apparent lack of (nice and good!) French kissing in visual fiction is because it’s perceived as somehow “inappropriate”. As for me, I couldn’t not use it in this scene, because both my own first (conscious) make out session, and the first make out session I have administered to the one previously unkissed guy that I have had the privilege of depriving of his kissing virginity — and to whom I gave the same advice as Aeron gives Willie here :3 –, involved French kissing.

Anyway, enough about the kissing, but continue with the cuteness. Here is a video from the Russian research vessel Akademik Fyodorov. Thanks to Ainur for the link!
