Hey all, this entry is going to be short. I had planned to sit down and type up a big thing, but I have a massive toothache–when I was pregnant I got a piece of popcorn seed shell stuck in between two of my molars, and when I flossed it out, a big chunk of my tooth flew out with it (which, as far as I am concerned, is the exact opposite purpose of flossing). While I assumed that it probably had to do with all the barfing I did in first and second trimesters, there was nothing I could do about it because up until a few weeks ago, I had no dental insurance.
When my insurance kicked in, I didn’t even think about fixing it, because it didn’t hurt. Aside from a large hole in my tooth, everything was dandy for MONTHS. Lesson learned–today it feels like someone has punched me in the jaw with a brick. I’ve got a massive headache, and now I am going to sleep so I can wake up early and hopefully schedule an appointment to get it fixed. Night!
Hey nice comic, its amazing that a few people reply lol , well i smell a hero’s death ( kamikaze) wich is sad …….but at least hes a badass, keep up the good work .
Thanks!
Yeah but it isn’t like we didn’t know. Endi said on page 8 of this chapter that he was gonna.
That he did!
Owie!! Sorry to hear that you’re teeth are being combative! I’m really digging this flashback! Take care and hopefully they will fix the issue with the least invasive method possible!
Yeah, me too. I’ve never had a root canal before, and I hope to keep it that way. :S
I’ve heard about this, the unborn leeching the calcium out of your teeth to make their own demonic forms. Very unfortunate.
My doctor told me that the baby wasn’t leeching enough calcium off of me to really make a difference, it’s the throwing up that does it. Stomach acid + enamel = infinite frowney faces. People with bulimia experience the same thing but way worse.
Yeah, it’s important to brush your teeth after you throw up, to get rid of the acid (not to mention the vomit breath).
Ouch had one of those buggers. Advil Liquigels help and try to get a hand mirror + a regular mirror and a small flashlight and have a look in the impacted area yourself for swelling or any oddly white areas, if either sighted get a dental appointment ASAP for draining and some antibiotics from your doctor as it’s an abcessed root and the infection from it is going up.
While I haven’t been to the dentist, I found the culprit! I was in panic mode because the area in between my teeth (where the piece is missing) was BLACK. Turns out that a piece of peppercorn was jammed in the hole and wouldn’t come out no matter how many times I flossed or jabbed it with a pin. Randomly came out today while flossing and all the pain instantly vanished. O.o really hit home that I need this filled, though!
Youch! That hurts, hope you feel better soon! Teeth are such fickle things.
Haha, can’t live with them, can’t live (comfortably) without them (unless you can somehow have some awesome titanium robot teeth installed afterwards).
I think they even make awesome titanium robot teeth these days, or at least they can. Most people go with the ceramic look like real tooth implants instead given a choice, but they are still anchored by titanium rods drilled into the bone.
I’m with you though. Titanium teeth? Sign me up!
I just discovered your webcomic today. I have fallen in love with it! <3 Not only is the artwork stunning, skillful, and easy on the eyes, the storyline is extremely intriguing and the characters are believable and surprisingly lovable! I never knew I could get to like Henri. That's just skill, right there.
Your comic made it in my webcomic favorites list. ^.^
I’m so, so happy you feel that way. I sometimes wonder if we’re developing characters well enough, rather than just dashing from plot point to plot point. It’s hard to view your own work like you don’t know what character development WILL happen because you have it planned out already. Glad you’re enjoying it, and I hope you stay with us.
Me too. I marathon’d through the entire series the instant I found it (which was several months ago now). Couldn’t put it down. Probably the biggest thing that drew me was the art style. It’s on a whole other level from most web comics out there. Top quality stuff. The story is undeniably part of the appeal to me as well. I like a bit of Sci/Fi what can I say.
Just an FYI…
I recommend webcomics periodically on my blog.
this week I recommended The End.

Thanks.
Awesome, thanks! I’ll make probably make mention of your review on Tuesday’s update!
Oooh, I can identify. I have categorically terrible teeth from a stomach acid problem I had since childhood that wasn’t diagnosed ’til late teens so any time I have any major tooth pain there’s just panic because of all that’s involved in “fixing” them so far! A few months ago I had the same thing only with a piece of popcorn and the relief was so palpable after I got it out and the pain stopped that I think I cried(my poor roommate). Hope you get an appointment scheduled soon!
