I don't plan on bidding, but clear something up for me and everybody else. You have a starting bid of $50 per slot, but the average bid per milestone is $50. I assume by average you mean cut in half, so $25x2 equals the average, correct?

Not quite. To calculate the average, you would add the two winning bids together and divide by 2. So if both slots got a $50 bid, that would be ( 50 + 50 ) ÷ 2 = 50. If one got 75 and the other got 125, the average would be 100. Basically, if both slots get a bid we have already hit the first milestone and it only goes up from there.

You think you can get away, Stuart? I've just printed all of your stuff guys posted on rule34/e621 and sent to your grandma via express mail.

Valiant attempt but Stuart isn’t even my real name. You’re going to have to try much harder than that.

As an artist I can give you a snapshot into a world.

But a writer.

A writer can take you there.

They can weave together words and create a portal to anywhere. You can visit those places instead of looking out a window and wishing to be a part of it.

I envy artists.

A writer can give you a story.

But an artist.

An artist can show you the exact emotions behind everything.

They can paint a picture worth a thousand words without ever writing one. They can show you every single emotion, every single thought in a second. They can show emotion like a writer never could.

I envy artists.

The comic book artist envies none.

With every frame, they build emotions and with every page, they grow their story. It is a realm of pure expression where a single person can convey something grand and sweeping.

Every single thought can be captured as you travel through a portal to unimaginable worlds. It can be a beautiful land, it can be an ugly room, but to marry together art and writing is an individual expression that is unmatched.

She sure is! Xiik has laid four happy, healthy children. They see each other from time to time but parenting is a bit different in kobold society. The strongest and most desirable are encouraged to breed as frequently as they can but the raising of children is a community effort. With Xiik’s duties as the village Shaman, she rarely sees her eggs from when they’re laid to when they’re walking and talking and her only involvement in raising them is the occasional afternoon visit.
