god this is nailing the oddly liberatory nature of realizing that when your old life implodes that also includes the arbitrary confines and limitations of said life. feeling very Normal about the vibes of these lines. also feeling Normal about the way godfeels dave is always precision-engineered in some ways to hit me in the core emotionally right at the point in my life where i'd feel it the most.

man this is some peak dave dialogue. we are so back

godfeels dave i missed you so much

everything about this is so silly it fucking rules

Dill Gets It

this is. this is starfox-adjacent stuff right?? i think???? i do not know enough about this to do more than maybe point it out but i think this is what the refrance.

already of the firm belief that dill fucking rules

aw hey it's a frog!!

again an insistence on dana's part that this kind of quirk/oddity has to Mean Something. it's not just that the voidshell didn't pop. there has to be some kind of narrativised conspiracy behind it because despite her cynicism i think dana's still very much buying into the narrative fantasy of silverbark and the ewl. evil and cruelty are mundane and i don't think that's a revelation that'll sit well with her.

this is really some top-shelf scene setting going on here

man these two are good

something interesting going on here with dana and lenore vis a vis trust and paranoia. lenore paranoid enough to abscond from the ewl putting her trust in old comrades. dana burned by a poisoned faith in silverbark hesitant and mistrusting. really enjoying the ways these two are playing off each other

one thing about godfeels is that it always knows how to pull an intriguing setup. curious as to the emerging genre fiction elements of godfeels 3.2 are gonna mesh with the homestuck-flavored metafiction stuff going on.

thinking about dana trying to puzzle out silverbark's motives in conjunction with the prior chapter. getting the sense that in dana's world nothing can ever just be incidental.

there is a specter haunting the Comet. it is the specter of a puppygirl abandoned to an ambiguous fate

a lotta waking up going on in these chapters as a framing device. wondering if this is somehow tied back to the "dream in a dark place" motif or something
