This Romantic World Page 143
Added 2020-07-24 00:54:46 +0000 UTCSince I only update once a week, I normally strive to make each page stand on its own in some way, as I feel like that increases my odds of snagging new readers. I did not do that here. This page will make zero sense without reading page 141. I felt it was a worthy sacrifice to present a point that's very true to me personally: resist the urge to plan what you're going to say ahead of time, it pretty much never goes the way you think it will.
Meanwhile I hope you guys like how this scene is progressing. I decided I'd been leaning on "jump-cut to sex" a little hard in my pacing lately. So with Casey and Abbey I really wanted to take my time with the build up for a change. Of course this can lead to what feels like a glacial pace for my update schedule, so I'll do my best to keep an eye on how you guys are reacting and adjust the scene accordingly. So as always don't be afraid to share your feedback! :)

Thanks! And I guess if Casey's a little put off it's because she's so comfortable in sexual situations that she feels a little out of her element here with someone she isn't going after sexually.

2020-07-27 23:39:59 +0000 UTCIt's kind of hard to beleive that Casez can be that much flabbergasted by that to-do list. I see her as a person who has seen almost everything in her life. One way or another. But nevertheless, one of the best scenes yet.

Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:35:30 +0000 UTCI'm sure she'd appreciate the support! :D

Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:34:21 +0000 UTCThanks for sharing! :)
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:34:15 +0000 UTCHey thanks! And yeah I guess it is important that I think about how the comic will read if taken in all at once. It's just so easy to slip into obsessing over how each page performs individually sometimes.
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:33:31 +0000 UTCFor sure! :)
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:32:11 +0000 UTCThank you! I feel like I'm finally getting a handle on how short Abbey is supposed to be.
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:32:01 +0000 UTCThanks! I was pretty happy with how her face turned out there.
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:31:31 +0000 UTCThat's what I'm hoping! :)
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:31:14 +0000 UTCThanks for the input! :)
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:30:55 +0000 UTCGreat to hear it, thanks!
Reinbach
2020-07-25 20:30:14 +0000 UTCI'm down for some build-up. These two have been so awkward toward each other that I'd probably feel let down if they got naked too fast; their history and chemistry need to be resolved.
Truly Anon
2020-07-25 16:55:23 +0000 UTCDumbAndDumber had the best rehearsing what to say vs reality scene. It's Ok build up the scene. I believe, in the biz, they call that character development. I think it's cute how Abbey is nervous and Casey is oblivious (well a little rn).

2020-07-25 04:59:10 +0000 UTCA straight edge horndog trying to hook with someone who just wants to get sloshed. I can see this going well.
Licorice Lain
2020-07-24 14:53:45 +0000 UTCThis is the same Casey from Switch correct? The one who is in love with Royce and Bria?
Professor00
2020-07-24 14:41:29 +0000 UTCLoving the pacing. The quality of the writing and characters is why I became a fan in the first place, and I don't mind pages of authentic interactions one bit
Emmett
2020-07-24 14:32:57 +0000 UTCBut seriously, I come for the story. If I just wanted your porn, I could go to your hentaifoundry account and fap til I'm blind.

2020-07-24 14:15:16 +0000 UTCTease us slower.
KaijuWhite
2020-07-24 14:14:01 +0000 UTCPoor Abbey, she's trying so hard. She's like a tiny ball of horny anxiety.
schtickle
2020-07-24 12:25:30 +0000 UTCThis is my most anticipated scene in the entire story so please take your time with it as I know it will pay off in the end :)
Deano
2020-07-24 09:27:53 +0000 UTCI can certainly see why Casey was so apprehensive about dealing with Abby...If she does have sex with her, it may take a pry-bar to get Abby off of her. I don't see Abby being the kind to share Casey with anyone else once she's gotten what she's been dreaming about...
Chris Davis
2020-07-24 08:40:25 +0000 UTCNah, you can take your time with this. And not JUST because seeing Abbey stew is hilarious (thought it IS)
Kyman201
2020-07-24 07:24:18 +0000 UTCHonestly these two are so hot I have so many thoughts as to how it’s gonna end with a climax. 😜🙌🏼🔥 can’t wait for more!!!
Daniel Reyes-Bukowski
2020-07-24 05:09:45 +0000 UTCIf you gotta slow the pace down for the sake of characterization, then you slow the f--k down, my man. Part of the problem with entertainment these days is everybody is in such a damn hurry. Don't be afraid to decompress your storytelling! I support your decision to not immediately jump into the sexy times here.
Squid Hills
2020-07-24 04:38:52 +0000 UTCAww, she practiced that line and couldn't get it out lol. You got this Abbey reel her back in

2020-07-24 03:50:59 +0000 UTCI'm always a big fan of the slow burn.
Hayley Kepics
2020-07-24 02:15:14 +0000 UTCAbbeys reminding me of the old Casey. And not in a good way...
Lord Washington
2020-07-24 01:28:39 +0000 UTCCasey seems to be just a tad clueless that Abbey is pulling her leg and that she wants to jump her bones just as much as she does. But letting things progress slowly with these two could be very sensual and exciting.
Bob Fink
2020-07-24 01:26:16 +0000 UTCI don't mind the slow build at all. I think it works really well in this situation.
JB
2020-07-24 01:24:35 +0000 UTCConsidering how long awaited this scene has been, a few pages of buildup is definitely fine. Their personalities are so opposite a cut to the sex would be just confusing. Like: this is hot but how did we get here. Also, Considering thease two characters definitely have some past wounds to mend between them it would be nice to see them open up and interact. Sure hope casey brought some booze though. Abbey could definitely use something to lighten up.
Slaughterbug
2020-07-24 01:14:46 +0000 UTCWhile the pages might seem like they're moving at a glacial pace when released (although I've never felt that way personally) you may also want to consider something else. When people go back and read older chapters, especially new fans drawn in during the middle of an arc, that slow pace is considerably faster. I know that sort of thing doesn't fix what might be perceived as an issue in the present but I think an occasional slower pace brought on by upload trends is an ideal sacrifice for things flowing a lot better when reading the finished chapters after the fact. it makes for a much more complete feeling story and gives the characters, world, and pacing time to exist outside of the sex. Which is something I think most pornographic content forgets to do. To date I think Switch and TRW are some of the rare exceptions to that trend.
Snizzlefit
2020-07-24 01:09:16 +0000 UTCEh, there's no problem with taking your time to get to sex. Sometimes you need the buildup, and the fun is in seeing characters squirm while the tension grows.

2020-07-24 01:06:22 +0000 UTCCome on Abbey DON'T GIVE UP!!! side note but the size gap is A+ on this page
Brandon Mack
2020-07-24 01:06:02 +0000 UTCI can relate to Abbey. I also love how oblivious Casey looks in the first panel.
RivEx
2020-07-24 01:01:14 +0000 UTCI think there needs to be downtime to appreciate the sex more.
GregD
2020-07-24 01:00:20 +0000 UTCThere should probably be a brief time skip to them having a 2-3 page conversation for brevity. Shots of them doing those activities with a line of comments about it sprinkled through would ecapsulate the time spent.
InkstainedFox
2020-07-24 00:58:23 +0000 UTCThese past three pages have been beautiful. My favourites so far. And they're stuff I can share with my friends to finally show the genius writing and comedic pacing of this comic. I'm honestly invested in this story
