Hee, the blumaroo chef IS well-drawn. *hugs him* But I'll never understand why all the recent 'roo art has them with these huge eyes! One of the reasons they're one of my favorite pets in the first place is because the pets themselves have cute little beady eyes. The bigger ones make them look creepy. (Which could work for Von Roo, I guess, but not most of the rest of them.) But, I guess that's more personal preference than actual measure of art quality; like I said before, the rest of him is just fine.
(EDIT: Never mind. Just took another look at his "normal" art and he's only wide-eyed when the cooking pot goes boom. I stand corrected.

)
The ship and all the new things associated with it are cool, especially the Kou-Jong game. I love it, don't get me wrong. But my excitement's dampened by the fact that we're all <i>still waiting</i> for the last two events to be wrapped up. If they're busy, wouldn't starting a new plot thing just exacerbate the workload?? I'm starting to think we're not going to get anything at all. (Please let me be wrong.)
