I have my opponent:

And Kit's enemy...is a BLOODY DINOSAUR!
Why do the plush enemies seem to grow bigger with every round? Honestly. Round 1, it was Lady, a little plush bird you could fit in the palm of your hand. Round 2, Koa, a koala who probably stood as tall as a six or seven year old kid. Now, Round 3, I've got Cybele, an archaeopteryx (I can't even pronounce that without stumbling) big enough to carry a human on her back in flight.
At least she doesn't have powerful magic that Kit has to fight around.
No, just the power of flight, sharp speed, and size and strength such that, if she wanted to, she could eat Kit in two, maybe three fluff-filled bites.
Thank god she doesn't seem to be into devouring her opponents...or even hurting them really bad.
Not just that, but CheshireGhost's comics are brilliant. The action is easy to follow, the expressions are great, the fights make sense - even when they stray into comedy - the dialogue is smooth...
How do I compete with that, even when writing?

...
Also, just wondering here, but what is it with everybody in that OCT and consulting the Forest Guardian? Kit's going there to talk to him because he's the guardian of her former home, and the one who sent her out to seek a bond with a human in the first place.
Cybele and Anna are going there because he appeared in Port City and called them.
I do believe I read another entry from Round 2 that had the characters heading up that-a-way as well, again, to consult that owl.
Why?
I may never know.
...
Well, I'd best get cracking. I've got an SE to write to set up the round, and then I've got plotting on an epic scale to delve into.
*EDIT*
I just looked back on the song title I happened to be listening to, and listed at the top of this journal, and I couldn't think of anything more appropriate.
Victoriam speramus = we hope for victory.
In fact, all the lyrics in the chorus...
Victoriam speramus
Damnate timiditam!
Concordiam optamus
Iuvate libertatem!
Victoriam speramus
Negate subversorem!
Concordiam optamus nunc
-
We hope for victory
Condemn cowardice!
We wish for unity/friendship
Help freedom!
We hope for victory
Deny the subverter!
We wish for unity now
I think I might have found a Bonds of String themesong. Almost.
(Note: I translated the thing, so it's probably rough and sketchy, as I'm not anything near fluent in Latin.)

I'm going to stick with coloring the plain line version, but I'll try to follow the light source you chose, just because.
I have sketches for Music. Just need to get them into Photoshop and turn it into an actual image.
I'm so slow...
Hehe, no worries. Take your time!

Also, in regards to colouring with the sketch layer, here's a picture I'm doing with that. The sketch is just a guideline for me. So if you want to leave yours as a sketch, feel free!

You make me feel bad. I've got a concept in my head for my portion, but I've not gotten it out on paper (or screen) just yet.
Ah! Lightsaber!
That actually looks really good. Is the character an actual Star Wars galaxy species, or something from another fandom/original?
Also, I've got a trick to doing really nice lightsaber glows. It's in Photoshop, but you might be able to make it work if your program's got many of the same features.
Here's an example: [link]
Not sure whether it'd go very well with the art style of the rest of the piece, but if you should ever choose to apply the effect to a photograph, would you like the instructions?
This is actually Nightcrawler as a Jedi. If you have any tips on glowyness, I'm totally open! Mind you, that's not actually finished. I'll be adding to that image, just getting colours out. I probably went the wrong way colourwise. i should have the lightest in the middle or something.
