Day 26 Part 2 Page 6

“No, I can’t be his friend, Chel. I have a job to do.” Vic shook his head no at the suggestion. “What about me?” Chel grimaced, wondering if her father would be repeating their earlier conversation about keeping Lexx in line. “What is my job” Victor smiled sincerely. “You get to be Lexx’s friend. I can change my mind at any time on what needs to be done, but you can be his friends like you would any of your other friends. I have to answer to higher ups, Chel, I can’t be seen as being too close to Lexx right now. When he is done with his game, I will do my best to do what is right.” ---------------------================================---------------------------------- Truthfully. I've been burned out for two years on working on Alien Dice, only I did not realize it until last week. I've been going in circles trying to figure out the best way to do the comic to keep it from continually taking three times longer to draw and color than anything else I do. Nothing has really worked. So maybe realizing what the problem is and moving it to the back of my work load will eventually help. It has been at the FRONT, causing all my other projects to not go as quickly, which then makes me more frustrated and maybe subconsciously bitter, angry, and resentful at the chore of working on this comic keeping me from working on everything else I'd rather work on. So now that I know, moving it might be best. I'm already mostly done with all the other work and it's only Wednesday. Tomorrow I work on AD and I already feel better about it. Once that block is fully removed, it SHOULD move on smoothly, especially since I'm going to a looser format with larger updates soon. Temporary burn out is normal. Not REALIZING that's the problem, kind of makes it hard to really work through it. Working on what I want to work on first should also remove the 'chore' aspect once I get to it in the work week. :D I just need to remember.... when something feels like a chore, I should probably stop working on it that day so it doesn't escalate. - Tiff

  1. i wonder which troll face vic is making as he says “lexx’s friend”

    1. Probably the “I’m sighing” face and not a trollface.

  2. ‘Friend’ is open for interpretation in that aspect. I think he didn’t say ‘girlfriend’ on full purpose…and seeing how he stressed the ‘friend’ bit, I dare say that his subtext is supposed to say: ‘If he should seduce you, I’m afraid I will have to kill him.’…which is also part of his job. As father, that is.

  3. No hes making the, “If he kisses you I will gut him.” face

  4. @ Refugnic, @ Spikes: Oh yes. He is definitely thinking along those lines.

  5. glad to know your moving it around rather than a hiatus
