So... what sort of "vacation" does Väinö Väänänen like?

He seems to be the nature-loving type.

ok I though that scavenging should be explored a little more.  I came up with this on the fly.  If folks are interested.

There's another thread for that.

It turns out that Väinö Väänänen was just making a cameo meaning it's just fluff which is fine here.

So. Only the ending page left. I wonder if there will be some sort of team goodbye, or if the entire series will conclude with Emil saying “I won”. I mean, I suppose he did, in a way or a few. Not necessarily a precise summary of the whole story though 

I wonder when the Feels will hit. Right now I got almost nothing.

I think my Feels hit quite a while ago. Maybe there'll still be something left to feel about it Monday; but I don't know.

Very glad these boards will still be here, though. Hope that lasts.


-- Horrible thought for the Monday page: one of the characters from the Prologue, waking up, stretching, saying 'Wow, that was a weird dream! I almost expect the power to be off -- [turns on radio, gets entirely ordinary ads] -- nope, all seems to be normal. Better get dressed and go to work.'

I was thinking that with Väinö coming by for "vacation",  I can see this as a last page:

Everyone comes with the first boat of the season.  Emil's aunt/uncle, Varu (sp?), Trond, Sigrun's family, Reynir's family etc.. Any of the other people that met along the way happens to be in town.

they all meet for a welcome spring party and a group photo!!

Two words:
Dance Party
Not holding my breath, but it is traditional.

Spoiler: show

You know what? This is the first time I've felt like doodling in ages.  Hold that thought....

Taru!

It would be nice to see everyone! Not sure about Reynir's family though, as one can't exactly sail away from a sheep farm. I can totally see the Organizing Committee showing up, since they seem to really want Our Heroes to do their next mission.

Thank you Tehta.  I hope varu is not a bad word any where

The true ending we deserve. If only pen-and-paper could emulate disco lights.

[tehta]

OMG, all their dance moves! (Especially Onni's)

[dmeck7755]

Onni "dances with birds."  Tuuri is great!!

[Jitter]

Wave, it’s lovely! I particularly like Reynir and Kitty, they are spot on!
