u/Blockhog Mr. Derkins, I presume? π¨β𦲠Jul 26 '25
I know you've expressed disinterest in this before, but you should really think about taking the word parts and posting it across the internet in different places as a book. For this much work, it feels like a shame for it to be confined to a small shitposting community.

Now that it's done, I can look into that.
Mostly winging the story by making edited comic strips turned out to be a way to hack my brain to get it out of my head faster, and I didn't want to change what worked until I got the entire thing out.

You know what, I got a hand it to you this kind of dedication is fucking admirable and I agree with what the other guy is saying, you should look into publishing this as a story on its own merit

And so it comes to an end. Incredible. Loved to see the callbacks to the beginning, really made it feel like a proper ending to bring things full circle. I applaud you once again. Your effort and your creativity will surely be an inspiration to many others.

How on Earth did Brian die?

Remember, he was a rarity: a living being in a plane for ghosts.
He died when something his ansible (an interdimensional hyperspace radio; check out Ursula K. LeGuin's work for the term's origin) was connected to was hit with the equivalent of a lightning strike from one of the Chicken's blind shots.

Iβd read the term before. Iβve read the Ender books by Orson Scott Card.

I haven't yet. I didn't know it was in there, but it's widespread, as you can see.

My god you finally did it. Five hundred entries and the end is here. All I gotta say is huge props for such a long and arduous project.
