CHAPTER 9.5 - PAGE 7

(Transcript and visual captions below}

Karl really got into setting the scene, waving his hands around too much as he talked.
    "Oh man everyone was there! Severin, Priestess, Cyanide, Lenora, Cotton, Maurice, Bucket of Cheese, Wolf, Harinder...!"
    "Uh, if you say so," Jack said, "They all run together for me in a blur of black t-shirts and too much jewelry."
    "So cynical. They were just pure souls trying to find hope in a dark world."
    "--and that's what they wrote on their bedroom mirrors in black lipstick until their moms yelled at them."
    "...Sheesh. Anyway..."

In which Karl's crappy kissing makes her PUKE!

  
      "It's not funny Jack! It was so embarrassing. Seriously, Chool had to switch districts after that. Well, I mean, after she did that at a few other people's houses. The rug smelled like rotten pizza for weeks!"
Jack chuckled behind his hand, the first time he'd looked even remotely pleasant all night.
      "What next, you weaver of dreams?" he said dryly, "Your take on the past is so... interesting."
Karl sighed, and continued.

AUGH this page! Well, it was fun to do but SO MANY WORDS SO MANY KIDS! I still got it in under the mark, so YES to me! *throws confetti* I have fulfilled my promise in exchange for your generously donated USA dollars. Thank you!

I'm starting to feel like we need a Kingfisher wiki for all these fake bands and other cultural artifacts. At least for my own use! Christopher helped me with the top panels, and there are several amusing references to goth related stuff there and throughout the rest of the page. By the way, if you're curious, you can look below at the transcript to see that we named all these kids, because that's just the kind of thing we do.

            

TRANSCRIPT: This is the text of the comic, for purposes such as translation and internet searches.

1.)

(Karl narrates-- Jack gives Karl the baggies of drugs while stern yet glamorous goths watch in the background. Some kind of weird doobie-smoking monster is in front. Other than her, the rest of the scene is rendered in a rather... gloomy style.)

KARL: I’ll never forget it...

2.)

(The scene goes back to normal, with a slight change in view in the background...)

JACK: Uh, Curlyfry wasn’t even there...

KARL: Oh right.

3.)

(Karl displays the baggies of drugs to other kids' interest. Jack needs to know about the candy situation.)

KARL: Candy is here, everyone!

JACK: --you have real candy, right?

4.)

(A bunch of teenagers sit around smoking, drinking and eating pizza whilst conversing in a... teenager-y fashion.)

WOLF: Do you even understand the fundamentals of Aegenian post-critical methodology? Everyone knows that, GAWD.

COTTON: Tch, of course. I’m not a baby.

CAIRNS: Mm yeah but that assumes a relativistic universe, y’know?

PRIESTESS: I guess.

CYANIDE: What if everything isn’t even real? I mean, REALLY real. It does my head in!

MAURICE: I know!

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Guys, they just got a jug of Graumeister!

5.)

(Jack slumps on a couch in the background while some strange top-hatted person talks to him. Karl socializes in the foreground.)

SOLOMON:Do you huff?

JACK: Eh, not really.

SOLOMON: Yeah, huffing is so over.

KARL: Esther! It’s been FOREVER.

ESTHER: Everything’s so beautiful! You did it again.

BUCKET OF CHEESE: Karl your taste is amazing! It’s like something from Phantasmo Magazine!

6.)

(Karl gathers everyone around the snack table.)

KARL: What should we listen to? I’ve got everything.

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Belfries!

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Charnel Haus!

ADINA: Umm Paddywagon haha.

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Oh please.

HARINDER: A Stillness!

SEVERIN: Darkchurch!

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Ooh, Sucky Babies?

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Noooooo!

UNIDENTIFIED KID: Aw.

7.)

(Spooky music plays while people sit around or make out. Karl has a girl on his lap in the background.)

BUCKET OF CHEESE: Bleh this music is so bleak.

HARINDER: Yeah, it's great!

CYANIDE: How old are you?

JACK: Uh--

CYANIDE: Wanna make out?

JACK: Hm, okay.

8.)

(Jack is all :-* and the girl is all :-P)

 

9.)

(Karl glances at something as Chool kisses him.)

10.)

(Chool totally loses her lunch, breakfast and dinner all over the place. Some laugh, some stare agape. Karl dives out of the way like a pro.)

KARL: Ugh, of course you’d remember something like that.

JACK: Yes, yes I would.
