How can you read this there's no pictures?
Their entire culture based on one book? Hmmm... there was an old original Star Trek episode like that.
Give her a West basitin beach resort magazine, Keith..
Wow.. no Basitin Dr Sues then?
Not in the East. Probably in the West though.
Jade: *Talks something in Basitin* Nat: *Understand only three words - Keith, bed, ankles* Also Nat: "If you want to sleep with Keith, you have go through me!" Jade: *looks impressed and midly blushes* [Alright, I await for you and Keith in my chamber" Keith: *facepalm* Nat: "Wh-what did I say?" Keith: "You said, 'If you want to sleep with Keith, then only with me!'..."
Is Jade the rabbit, or is somebody else named Jade already? Love this btw.
In Nat's defense for being a Gaston here, I bet that book reads like stereo instructions anyway.
Natston? can we get a full Parody song of that?
Lol, today I started learning English too!) How do you know this, Tom?)) Well, apparently this is a sign that I'm on the right track!)
Oh, you gotta do a side comic of her slowly changing over to the Basitin culture and have Keith going insane because of it
Are there books or magazines with centerfolds? Look like 🦊
Nat's tiny snarl of frustration is adorable! Nice touch with the missing chunk of his hair. Yay, continuity! XD Great job, Tom! Congrats, BlazingFoxSpirit!
Nat: "You're sure you don't have anything... simpler?" Keith: "Not really. When I said that was the best book the Basitin had to offer, I meant that was our ONLY book. There are other editions, of course." Nat: "Your people made an entire written language just for one book of laws?" Keith: "Not JUST the book, no. There are also things like legal forms, court documents, Royal Council meeting minutes..." Nat: *Sighs.* "...And they say your people have no culture."
So… is this the book that Lynn throws at Laura in my suggestion? Or does he throw the adult addition at her?
Like a Basitin centerfold edition: any fully dressed Basitin, minus the ankle wrappings. Scandalous !
You know you're in an over-regulated society when this is the easiest thing to learn to read.
For a ‘quick’ sketch, you sure did a damn fine job drawing Natani’s face.
Just some light reading before bed.
As someone who studies languages for fun I'd love to develop a Basitin tongue, if you're ever interested Tom🧐
I always thought of it as a dense language with a lot of honorifics that need to be juggled. Kinda like Japanese, in structure if not in sound.
You know, for kids!
i'd be happy to learn to read write and speak with another basitin so with the keidran language and reading and writting so i could speak with natani and zen
