September 21 is our dearest hare’s birthday! We deeply thank Rem for this wonderful illustration, featuring a mysterious white arm with a… ringed hand? Mh, that’s a little fishy.
The mug says, “I love hot chocolate”. We can’t help but wonder whose mug it is…
Also, be careful, white hand! You’re spilling some dark beverage on Jack! What if he gets all wet and dirty and has to change clothes?
Ah wait… maybe that’s the plan…
Zac’s birthday was yesterday, but since it was August 15th, we couldn’t make this post in time. Happy birthday, kitty! We love you so much! 🧡
Aoi: So, Zac, today is your birthday! Cheers!
Zac: Hehe, thank you! I’m happy that you remembered even if I have not yet appeared in Cymberlight.
Aoi: Of course I did. I’m sure everyone is still waiting for your debut.
Zac: Really?! They want to see me?
Aoi: You bet!
Zac: Amaaaaazing! (Zac starts dancing around the room, making meow-ish noises) By the way, I made a thing yesterday.
Aoi: A thing? You mean, a disaster?
Zac: No, no, no! I made… (Zac rummages inside his “The Amazing Heroes” backpack) THIS! (He shows me his sketchbook)
Aoi: Oh… that’s… a drawing.
Zac: Yup!
Aoi: …
Zac: …
Aoi: Um…
Zac: Yes?
Aoi: It’s… pretty awesome, I guess.
Zac: …You don’t like it?
Aoi: Eh? Oh, no, it’s really well made! I’m just, like, a little confused? (I point at the character that looks like a demon) This is Cynthia, I suppose…?
Zac: Yes! She’s the Demon Queen here.
Aoi: …I see. “Cynthia… I’m sorry…”
Zac: And this knight…
Aoi: …Is you.
Zac: It’s me! (Zac nods enthusiastic)
Aoi: Too bad he has his back to us, I can’t see his face.
Zac: It’s because, you know, he’s not important in this scene. He’s just a vassal.
Aoi: …A vassal.
Zac: That’s right.
Aoi: …Okay, (I massage my eyebrows, feeling like I’m leading to a stonking revelation) so let me get this straight: you made a drawing in which Cynthia is the Demon Queen, and you are her vassal. Moreover you are… (I point at the bundle the knight is holding out to the Queen) offering her a prisoner?
Zac: I’m paying a tribute. She asked the knight to bring her a sacrifice. To do… (Zac glances around and starts whispering for no apparent reason) you know, things.
Aoi: …What things?
Zac: Demonic things.
Aoi: …Yeah, sounds legit. (I keep gazing at the ‘sacrifice’) They… they’ve got familiar… ears.
Zac: Of course! (A broad smile appears on Zac’s face) There’s only one kind of prisoner Ms. Cynthia would claim, after all. As her vassal, it was my duty to provide her with what she wanted.
Aoi: “Yeah, I think I got a pretty good idea of why she’d want such a sacrifice…”
A little preview of the Easter AU currently on-going on our Patreon! To see this content now, you can visit this page (warning: it requires you to become at least a tier $5 patron); or, you can wait June to see it for free!
They’re cute, aren’t they? This design has inspired us a lot, so much that we decided to make a little special AU that will be available for preview on Patreon in the next few days.
Stay tuned!
For Valentine’s Day, we decided to prepare something new, but most of all, something officially canon.
A new story is available in the NOVELS section of the menu. It’s settled some months after the end of the J comic, and it is part of the new series we’re going to work on after the end of “Jack’s Savage Fantasies” comic. The moment we release this new series, every other work we’ve made up until now will be considered prior to this series, and the series itself will be considered the main one.
The story we’re publishing today, Lightweight, is a missing moment of the main comic which will be released in a couple of months (maybe less) from now. You can already find a lot of clues about the turn Jack and Cynthia’s story is going to take, and we’re sure you’ll like it.
You can find this illustration by selecting GALLERY > ARTWORKS from the menu. As for the short novel, you can read it here by hitting the Continue reading → button, or simply go here.
