SHANGRI-LA: CV - Equipment

Been a long time since I've talked Shangri-La with you folks. But today, rather than telling you something about the game, I'm going to invite you to participate in a small but crucial part of the game-making experience.

You see, like any RPG, there are a variety of different weapons, armor, accessories and more that the party can equip. Making these has already been taken care of, but describing them has not. And many Shangri-La sessions lately consist of me staring at the inventory struggling to come up with something clever. Guess what: it doesn't work like that.

With that in mind, I'd like to propose a little call for help. To help

Big point: It’s hard to convey sarcasm in written form. I tend to hope something like a smarmy grin will illustrate it well enough, but I had this horrible image in my head of everyone misreading the last panel as Gavin actually outing Todd. Maybe no one will read it like that, but to ease my neurotic mind: Gavin’s being sarcastic. He knows it’s the kind of thing that’ll piss Todd off, so it’s exactly what he’s doing. This is actually a good tactic for shutting up homophobes in general, but it probably works better for Gavin than it would, let’s say Rudy. Gavin’s at least bigger than Todd.

Middle point: Originally, the second and third panels were shown from an angle that had Rudy facing the reader. It kinda looked like he was still… doing his business. I feel like the side view doesn’t look as good, but I felt a little awkward when it wasn’t necessarily clear whether he was standing at a sink or a urinal.

Little point: Someone’s gonna ask, so allow me to remind you the different colored collars denote different grades. Rudy’s orange collar puts him in tenth grade. Todd’s green one shows that he’s in eleventh grade. Gavin’s (unseen here) blue collar means he’s in twelfth grade. Admittedly, you don’t really see the green one very often, but there really just aren’t a lot of significant junior year characters. And for what it’s worth, we should be seeing more red collars (ninth grade) soon too. ^_^

Not really a point: Yes, it is extremely convenient that Todd shows up in the bathroom when Rudy’s in there… with Gavin apparently already in there. I’ve got no explanation for that. It’s highly unlikely, yes, but for purposes of moving the story along, it had to happen.

Summation: Eh. I don’t really like this page too much. It totally worked better in my head.

I love Gavin. More people should be like that in real life.

.....

Doink. That is the sound effect that plays in my head when Todd is hit by the roll. Doink.

~BeckiSaysRawr Aug 2, 2012

YES GAVIN

I think that you conveyed the emotion/sarcasm in the last panel perfectly.

_{OOOOO, HE GOT BURRRRNED!
Someone get that girl a glass of water!
Someone send him to the burn ward!
Someone call the fire brigade!
Someone- you get the idea.}

I hope Gavin finished up before throwing that tp because otherwise his epicness here might drop a tad.
