It’s a day late but in my defense I had to actually MAKE reference for Thomas’s mmo-i-shall-not-name character and then tweak the details enough for plausible deniability while also keeping it recognizeably a reference to a specific game.

Also yes, this is the cliff-hanger of chapter 7’s resolution. Thomas didn’t win Bard Battle.

I REALLY wanted to make it be an animated update but 2020 happened and I decided I’d rather move the story forward than be stuck in limbo forever on a project i probably was never going to finish. I’ll release the animatic some day.
