Wow, Neila was away on a trip this weekend, and I was getting over a cold. What a lovely weekend. xP

I'm trying in vain to back in the groove, but keep getting distracted by drawing character scetches of characters that haven't even appeared yet. Dx

ANYWAY…This page isn't one I'm utterly proud of. The setup on it is terrible, and a little confusing. I usually stand outside job appointments and psyke myself up before I go in, just so I feel confident enough to do it. Which is what Aka's doing…psyking herself up.

And does anyone else hate Maddie the way I do? Overly cheerful waitresses are…*shutter* WRONG. Just wrong. They're supposed to be surley and stressed, and intimidating. Not perky and cheerful and bubbly like a can of pink lemonaide soda. Dx

Which is overly sweet, by the way. I like sweet, but MAN! That stuff is too sweet for me.

And yes, there is really a Beanstalk Cafe in my home town…or rather, there was. It is now the Bean Counter.
