125 – Recollection
I’ll let you guys draw your own conclusions here.
But yes, Clementine DID meet Laurence that day. Some people I know thought it “didn’t count” because that panel was part of one of those “profile pages”. Guys, every panel counts.
But it’s fun to see Clementine and Flore finally interact. :)
I also apologize, this comic was hastily put together and features a lot of copypasta. I had my hands full last week. The next ones will look much better.

Does this mean that Laurence is the nice version of Freddy Kruger?
Oh my. This suddenly makes her so much more sinister…
“This suddenly makes her so much more sinister…”
Laurence? Jeez, a butterfly is more sinister than Laurence… wait, you are the author… *shudder*
Does this mean that Laurence is the avatar for Nergal then?
Oooh. Be careful what you suggest.
Works for me. ^_^
LOL I love it when things go like this, adding potential twists… :P
Oooh. Be careful what you tease us with…
NOW YOU’RE PLAYIN’ WITH POWER!!!
Nintendo Power!
Flores cheerful twin? Her magical girl alter ego?
We’ll see!
i have a real theory about Laurence and Flores relationship. and i think it’s a pretty good one. but i’m always afraid i might accidentally spoil things for other readers. so i post joke theories instead.
I’m super curious now. Come share it next time you see me on FB. ;)
Thank you for your kindness :) I have the same worry and often keep shut as well, although about this particular topic I have nothing :)
I don’t do it myself, but many persons use the spoiler tag. You can include a warning of what the spoil is about and people choose to read or not. That way you give an opportunity to the ones of us that are curious :) and also could claim “called it!” in the future ;)
Poked Google a bit, found some code that might work. Let’s try it out…
Nya nya, can’t see this. Unless you clicked the button or it didn’t work… :P
Show/hide
So…did it work?
Nope, looks like that code didn’t work. Hmmm…
You must use: [spoiler]text to hide[/spoiler]
So it would look like this: [spoiler]text to hide.[/spoiler]
Heh, seems that DEZ hasn’t that plugin installed :)
It seems that the spoiler tag don’t work here.
The system that accept and record the posts wipes off almost all coding. That’s intentional to avoid commenters messing up with the site by embedding code into the post. Just a handful tags are allowed, like bold, italic, links, and little more. As far as I know the spoiler tag is not included in the basic install, for it to work some plugins must be installed.
Sorry I did a suggestion that don’t work, I’m so used to it in others sites that forgot about to check it here first.
Oh this is highly suspicious Dez……Hrmmmmm?..Let me guess…don’t ask. -_-
You learned well.
Went back and looked at Clem’s bio. I find it interesting that a lady only an inch taller than me is considered unusual. I do wonder though why her blood type is mentioned, along with that of the other girls. (I’ve also noticed this in some of my anime)
I guess “unusual” may not have been the right word in regards to Clem’s height. But…hopefully you know what I mean.
Asian countries have some sort of blood type astrology thing going on, and they take astrology very seriously, so it’s not uncommon for people to mention their astrological sign and blood type in their profile and to refuse a job to someone only because they have a particular blood type. Not because of blood donation or whatever but because of their defavorable horoscope associated to their blood. Yeah, that’s kinda weird.
Heh, almost ninjaed, glad I refreshed before posting ;)
There’s the Wikipedia article about it, it’s mostly ok.
Well, like I said last time, she’s still pretty tall for a girl, compared to the average. You can’t really compare your own height, since you’re a guy, and the male average height is much higher.
And again, we’re talking about Flore her. She’s the one who finds Gaia and Clem really tall. (And her sister too, but she’s used to her). The other girls don’t think Gaia or Clem are anything special height wise.
As for the blood type thing, it’s a Japanese thing, I only put it there as a fun little reference. To them, the blood type tells a lot about someone’s personality, and thus, is always included in any fictional character’s bio.
You’re right about that.
I personally don’t think anything of Clementine’s height as odd. My sister is the same height as her, so my perception is a bit wonky.
Again, she’s not that tall. ^^
Flore’s face on that last panel! Gets me every time!
It’s the third time she makes that face since the beginning of the comic. I love it every time.
In my case Flore herself gets me every time ;)
Those triangular mouths remind me of the anime Minami-ke.
I really love that cute OC of yours. Calice?
Sadly, not a name that could work in Frivolesque… XD
And I never watched it, is it any good?
Why wouldn’t it work in Frivolesque, Calice is French for Calyx after all.
I loved Minami-ke. It has one of my favorite scenes in anime.
why ? she was so cute !^^
More Clem! I approve of this comic, Dez! :D
I live to serve.
“…and if you ever meet a bear keep calm, don’t run, avoid eye contact, and don’t play chess with him.”
It seems that Clem is better at faces than most of us readers ;)
Clem is the girl of many faces.
Wow, very nice! :)
I was hoping that today you would say something else about that good thing that is going to happen with Frivolesque. Could you tell us at least when it is expected? this week? this month? I’m on pins and needles :)
Oh! You saw those posts on Twitter and Facebook?
Don’t get your hopes up. It’s mostly about con appearances and local publishing. ^^
I often check all your sites, there’s always something worth :)
So you are going to publish? Is it happening?
Like this one!! OMG DEZ, you are seriously rocking it :)
Let me guess, Gaia will be running, right? And, mmmh, I would like M-G riding with Flore but backwards and cheering Saki ;)
Also I tell you, if those last two had been vote incentives, you could be like in the top twenty or something.
Good idea for M-N! Too bad my actual drawing is much less funny. :(
You liked it? Wow, thank you :) Maybe next time? ;) I don’t know how it works so just in case I’m right now releasing the idea for anyone anywhere freely to use it :)
I must confess that I often play with the Frivoverse (*) someone riding backwards with Flore has been there for a while :) I would like I could draw better… or something at all actually :P
* admittedly I do that with many “-verses”, I’m not as creative as Flore but I do live in my head a lot :)
Yup, it’s happening. But it’s a really small publisher. I’ll probably just sell it at cons and nearby stores. I’ll discuss more about it later, but I kinda feel bad about doing it publicly since I don’t have a webstore or anything.
That’s wonderful!! Congratulations! :)
Don’t worry about the “only local” thing, we readers love your comic and are really grateful that you share it for free, we all will feel happy with everything that helps and makes you happy (*) So feel free to share always :)
BTW, didn’t you consider ebooks?
* not completely selfless, the better it goes for you, the more probably you keep doing this for us to enjoy ;P
I just looked through your Diviant Art Gallery and saw you drawing of Yomiko and Nenene from R.O.D. Just wanted to say you have good taste. That anime is awesome and should be made into a live action mini-series. I think it’d transfer well and be a hit.
ROD was always a favorite series of mine. It’s a pity they didn’t do more with it.
It would have been nice if they did more than just 3 episodes of ROD but at least I got the manga.
But there’s a whole TV series too!
ROD The TV, and it’s excellent.
DEZ’s gallery has many things j’adore :) You should check his other sites too, each one has something that the others not.
Funny fact: If you image search “Yomiko Nenene”, DEZ’s art appears among the four first places in every search engine I tried :)
You know DEZ? That drawing is twelve (12) years old, you have several works around that old, what about to pick one and do a Before-After meme? ;)
Intended to reply Lotusfox
I’ve been meaning to do one of those for the longest time. I think I’d pick that old drawing of Chloe and Marie-Neige playing the Game Boy Advance.
So she’s the alter ego, I guess, otherwise how’d she remember meeting Clementine, right?
she’s the one who reads frivolesque story to the readers…
Haha good observation
Who’s who’s alter ego?
I was thinking that Laurence was Flore’s alter ego, since she seemed to remember meeting Clementine, but upon more careful reading I see that Clem described Laurence well enough for Flore to recognize if that is her twin sister or something.
Oh, right. Yeah. Flore could tell who she was talking about easily.
