The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Also I have loads I'm sketching out in my mind. I've got lots of story-line, not a lot of exact dialogue.

That's fine for now. Like I mentioned, normally you don't fill in the specific dialogue until after you storyboard it, because until you choose the "camera angles" you don't know what's going in each panel.

Your story philosophy sounds good. I think the more you can develop the minor characters, the better the story will turn out.

I got two panels to go here--hold on. . .

GR! My media player suddenly won't switch out of English! This is horrible!

I think in comics you're supposed to stab yourself with a SPOOOON! (Tick reference :)

Well, you have the option of English dubbed, or Japanese with subtitles. I, having been properly introduce to anime by ani-bigots, refuse to watch dubbed anime. So this was a minor disaster. Fixed it, though.

Hey! Figure skating is amusing if it's got martial arts mixed in! Who knew?

OK, we are going out for a date. Some dinner, some pints, maybe some dancing (if Hair can talk Mr. Two Left Feet into it). Talk to ya later!

heard anything from our honorary Kansan?

Nope. She's probably crashed for a good while.

I can take it dubbed or undubbed. I think I'd prefer undubbed, though, so I can hear the original Japanese.

Adding martial arts is probably the only way I'd find figure skating tolerable :)

Hey, I'm about a minute from being done with the last panel! Will be uploading it within five minutes or so. . .

Still wacky. But at least I'm not working tonight (don't ask me about tomorrow or Sunday).

Yay! Can't wait to see.

Yeah, I hate figure skating too, but throw in a few good broken bones and you might have something.

Oh, and the dubbing is always so bad - they hire the worst voice actors! Almost always really uninspiring. Plus they can't even pronounce the names right. I like hearing the real words, even if I don't know what most of them mean.

I like doing skating, just not watching it :)

They probably pick the same actors they do to dub every other anime--I've noticed as I've been watching them that they all have the same voices.

It's uploading now. . .

And the actors are all bad.

I can't skate - I'm a clutz - so maybe 2% of my loathing is envy. The rest is just boredom.

It's amazing how I've grown to fear the concept of "interesting"

Okay, this is the political cartoon I mentioned I was going to do for practice. I totally rushed this, so I plan to redo this later and color it, but here's the basic idea:
