And now? Lexx let his fantasies run wild. The real possibility of being with Chel is as frightening as winning this fragging game! He wanted it. He wanted it all. Everything that he had ever allowed himself to dream of was right there. But there was one little problem. One little flaw. He had spent a lot of time dreaming and very little time realizing that it could really happen. He had spent all his time planning for the game, for winning battles and keeping all of his dice in top form, but none for what he would actually DO when it was all over.
I don’t have a plan! Lexx did have his casual wants of what he wanted to do, but none of them had ever included a girl. They also hadn’t included Maenae or even the Dice. They were mostly devoted to a place where Lexx could live … alone … and how he would build it, but he had never really given thought to how he would LIVE.
I plan everything! Lexx turned back around and banged his head against the glass window in resignation that he had made a little mistake. What am I going to do with a life I’m completely unprepared for?

Hate to break it to ya, Lexx: life can’t be totally planned for. You think you have it all worked out and then something throws a spanner in the works. Chel just happens to be your spanner.

Life is what happens to you when you’return making other plans.

Lexx, welcome to my world! I plan nothing, and things work out anyway. I love Chel’s hair, so gorgeous.

Sorry to tell you Lexx, but that is called life.
My favorite quote comes to mind:

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thinks that. (Even to the point of thinking of it in French like you.)

That’s Spanish, actually…

Haha! There’s the super “Dawww” moment! Right there in the first panel! I LOVE it when I’m right! At least, when I’m not being a pessimist…
Don’t worry, Lexx! Planning is for the weak and successful!

Congratulations, Lexx. You are about to leave High School. …or Collage, for those people who go there to PUT OFF the whole Getting A Life thing rather than in preperation for it…

In an offside comment, I noticed that in Lexx’s mental image in the first panel he has the arm bindings to cover his attempt at an umm… ‘early exit’ from the game. Have we gotten to see yet if the ‘new’ arm is free of scars? Also, if he ever does win the ‘fragging’ game, do the nanites return him to his original pre-winged form?

Oh! I love the first panel!

HAHA! The last panel made me laugh :3 He has the best faces 😛

😛 Lexx is having a dillema I think most people go through “okay, my time in the status-quo of my life is almsot done, and I’m gunna have to start living my own life outside of it…the hell do I do now?”
I’m on my last year of college and I realize a lot of my usual comforts and ‘safety nets’ aren’t going to be there soon after I graduate. So while it’s a stress I’m going to have to deal with and I’m not sure on how yet, I know it will get dealt with.
Lexx just doesn’t have someone to explain that to him.

Please send me an email using the contact button at the top of the page with the email you ordered it under. I can’t remember off the top of my head who you are or if I mailed you one. All of the ones I mailed should have been delivered by now and everyone else should have gotten an email confirming they were coming. If you didn’t get an email, you should be emailing me.
Eboreg
Just so you know, the Email I give to the website is only an alias that redirects to my real e-mail address, just replace “Eboreg” in there with “spacecadet91”. Did you get an e-mail from that address? Oh, and sorry but I couldn’t find the “contact” button.

Gah.. no home button.. no contact button.. guess they aren’t in the new version of comicpress. 🙁 Please go to shivae.net or cyantian.net and use that contact button.

On a bit of a different subject, I rather like the ‘TONK!’ in the last panel, as well as Lexx’ expression. I think it works rather well, as well as having some funny onomatopoeia. 🙂

I thought he banged is face on the window because he thought it was Chel….

More of a start life, wouldn’t it? The whole “I’m out of high school/college/structured living…now what,” sort of thing?

Welcome to the real world Lexx….. you can’t plan for Life, it plans for YOU. And what do you do with this thing that you have been handed that you cannot plan for? What do you do when you cannot control anything and your world is not wholly comprised of a single thing that you can predict as you go along?
,,,You LIVE.
If this was a real game, Lexx should have gotten 500000 experience just for this little epiphany and leveled up again! XD

^_^ ^+++^ lol, just lol
That second one is a toothy grin, by the way. 😉

As I said before when you first brought this up ‘make it up as you go’ I know you pride yourself on being a tactician but banging your head against the glass window isn’t going to help things.
bbeez
dang lexx you planned out how you would win the game but not how you would be after you win. Wow… thats just…wow, but seriously he needs to just go with the flow life is pushing him torwards.

Who needs a plan? Just go and wing it! There’s a whole fragging universe out there!
