Yoinktober is on once again! Check it out.
My headcanon mill churned up something over more cruel: Emil accidentally causes the damage while trying to shield Lalli from whatever will first looks like it's going to cause it.
PS: Writing the above down made me think of this, if anyone has four minutes to kill (sorry, not sorry): />
Waaaait. The embroidery on Lalli's tunic is red now? I realised it only after the stream, yesEh? I'm almost sure it has always been blue no matter what
Maybe we'll just chalk it up to being an image out of continuity?
I tried to track down when, exactly, the color had changed.Conclusion:Blue version is last seen on page 909, during the brief glimpse of Lalli in Emil's dreamspace. The lining on Lalli's tunic has been more or less red from the Chapter 21 cover onwards.
One headcanon I’ve developed is that the design of mages’ clothing in the dreamspace can fluctuate—not dramatic changes, but small ones like the color of an accent piece or some other detail. I have noticed slight variations in Lalli’s dream clothing between some different scenes, which it’s entirely possible is due to Minna drawing it differently, but I like my explanation for preserving continuity (plus I think I saw that it was confirmed in one of the streams that mage’s clothes don’t have real-world counterparts, which gives this theory a little bit more credibility? Maybe?)
For me he's always been a pretty boy
On the other note: in the archive with thumbnails (http://www.sssscomic.com/mainimages/) there's already a thumbnail for the next page. I see an arm above the water on it. Promising
