In Alinua’s case, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she were constantly subconsciously healing herself. If I’m right she could stare directly at the sun without consequences because the damage will heal as fast as it happens.
Whelp, I was worried Ali was going to guilt-trip herself, but seems she’s either come to terms, or learn to internalize very well. Even in the latter case, with friends like hers, she can fake it ’til she makes it!
Excuse me for being a damper to being First to Post syndrome? but it would be nice if you give compliments to the art/story as well. We are guests here on Red and family’s webpage. (bows in apology for feeling the need to be grateful to Red [and the rest of OSP gang] for putting up with us all so graciously!)
You’re absolutely right, my comment was unnecessary, I’m sorry. I love Red’s art, I was already a fan of her videos, the simple yet expressive drawings and the humour(how can you not love the humour). It really made her videos memorable, and when I found out about her webcomic, I was very excited and looked it up straight away. I still watch her di-Vine videos when I’m feeling down(Pigsy’s “still a piece of garbage” lives rent free in my head) and I hope that one day, I’ll also be able to create a webcomic, Aurora and Red have been such an inspiration for me as an artist.
Whoops, nevermind, looks like I’m having problems seeing the comments, I got excited for nothing. Still not seeing the comments, though (for longer than 2 seconds)
collector and storm and tynan and chimeric plague aside, this chapter is really making me want to live in the world of aurora. hell, even WITH all the crazy stuff, i want to live in this world. all i can say is, nice job red.
I mean, not to politicise, but any fantasy world without the looming shadows of climate change, nuclear war, and hypercapitalism sounds like somewhere I’d like to live. Plus, magic. Also, I think Red might have eliminated things like transphobia. Plus… MAGIC.
That was so cute for some reason!! And wow I love this page it’s so city-ish (I’m sorry I can’t explain myself so well…) I think what I mean to say is this page is so slice-of-life-y and casual <3 I love it 😍
I know this is a completely different scene but ever since reading the end of the lord of the rings I love it when characters in writing say ‘I’m back’ when returning home, it’s just the pure energy and feeling in a few words that makes it feel like the character has somewhere to be and return to and that there’s people there that care about them and I just love that.
Alinua is finally getting to relax a bit after having to constantly save everyone’s lives! Also, you always know that it’s a good/friendly town when the guards are smiling at the protagonists.
Existential woes
Let’s not dwell on that right now
Time to head on back!
Gods, that is cute…
emotional repression lol
For mobile readers.

the most unrealistic part of this comic is people gazing up at a fully sunny sky without having to squint
I propose that the most unrealistic part is none of them being sponsored by l’Oreal, but fair enough.

i love her so much‼️‼️
effective time management

She’s so cute <3
And mmm, ocean view with islands in the distance!
I’m pretty sure those are boats.
I’m first!

Very valid

At last Alinua sits up on the hill,
Done contemplating Life and lack.
She hurries through the port city to her friends,
And announces, “I’m back!”
I feel like today is going to be a good day, and I hope it is one for you too.
Alinua sighs, then sits up straight
Returns to the gang with a smile so great
I appreciate the sentiment @GoodbyBallad, but today was very much not a good day. Glad you’re having one, though!
her little face is an absolute mood XD
Whoops, nevermind, looks like I’m having problems seeing the comments, I got excited for nothing. Still not seeing the comments, though (for longer than 2 seconds)
I know what the first panel of the next page is gonna be xD
We all do.
Now you are laying down a challenge to Red! Be careful for what you wish for @Wolf! (Excuse my mother hen chatter again)
What will it be?
Watch Red prank us and we cut back to Erin or Tess instead
Sorry I’m actually really clueless, what is the next page going to be?
It was posted in a sneak peek at a new page on Red’s tumblr
She’s so pretty! Heck, they’re ALL so darned pretty! Plus this part of the world looks so nice … welcoming … and pretty. ^_^
I know this has been said by others, but it must be said again: These panels are so cute! <3
I like seeing Alinua beaming a sincere smile of happiness to the door guard in panel five, too!

The frame of her sitting up is great. I think it’s just the energetic, animated sitting directly after the very low-energy monologue
Anyone else hoping that the kitchen is on fire when she walks in?
If it isn’t, I will be mildly disappointed at the missed chance

It’s happening
She is so stinkin cute it’s not even fair!!!! I’m so glad to see she’s happy 😀
She’s so cute! Even her ears perked up when she sat up!
awww shes such a sweetheart
panel 3 is so cute omg
She goes “Alright, I’m up”
And then walks home 🙂
there’s gonna be some chaos when she walks in, I’m calling it now the house is gonna be on fire or something lmfao
Its lonely, but she doesnt have to be at least.
(Un)Fortunately for her, her group of friends are glorious dumbasses. (affectionate).
Man Red is so good at art.

This is EXACTLY how one responds to a nap in the grass on a gorgeous sunny day. 10/10.
Anonymous Aurora Question #46: What’s the city guards name? Wrong answers only.
Hades. Purely because he has a bident (two pronged trident) which is associated with Hades god of the underworld in Greek mythology 🙂
David Mook McGeneric. He’s very nice and has an interest in gardening.

Anyone else notice that Alinua seems to be holding something in her closed right fist? No? Just me?
The strap of her bag?
It definitely does in panel 3, in other panels I can’t really tell. Good eye though, I didn’t notice that until you said it!
Could be the flowers from last page?
my goodness she’s precious
that is some core strength right there! i have to use leg weight to sit up like that… Alinua exercise video series from her old tree anyone?
Third panel is just a depiction of Red getting up in the morning
Alinua is finally getting to relax a bit after having to constantly save everyone’s lives! Also, you always know that it’s a good/friendly town when the guards are smiling at the protagonists.
me seeing the third panel: nyooom
me after seeing the third panel and making whatever that noise was: …what-
shove that mental breakdown right back down there
oops i didn’t see the alt text
Beautiful shift from melancholy to refreshed, wake-up stretch. It’s nice to see Alinua looking so happy.
TL;DR: Enough deep thoughts. Time for action.
Even the guards smile. Argist is such a happy place.
