Love Jennifer's little dragons!

Such a fan.

Masterharper Robinton and his Bronze firelizard Zair. For you dragon fans out there if you're really into modern dragon riders books, check out Pern. It's the place most your fave lore bits started!

Robinton here is my favorite character! Not only is he an incredible musician and composer, he's also a really stand up human being. Great teacher, good friend, my husband ... Oops did I say that aloud lol.

Dragonriders of Pern won my fanart poll for this month! Check my page for future polls and have a say in what I draw next!

A DAY AT THE BEACH

(based on a drawing by @jennifer stolzer; video by a friend of mine, taken at St Zotique Beach, Quebec)

Note: Originally I called this story "Beached Beej", but I was never very happy with that title, so I renamed it.

"What are you guys doing?" Beej asked.

"It's Labour Day weekend," Lydia replied as she Charles and Delia packed a couple of bags. "We're going to the beach."

"The beach?" Beej echoed. "Why? What's there to do at the beach?"

"Well, there's swimming, of course --" Delia told him.

"Too much like bathing," the demon said, scowling. "What else you got?"

"We can play volleyball," Lydia suggested.

"Next."

"There's a number of nesting sites for sea birds," offered Charles.

Beej grinned. "Sure, okay -- that sounds good. Anything else?"

"There's lots of food trucks," Lydia told him.

Beej's ears perked up at that. "What kind of food trucks?"

"Hot dogs, hamburgers, lobster rolls, fried clams, falafel, tacos, ice cream -- you name it."

"Plus I've got a picnic basket," Delia added.

"Well, what're we waitin' for?" Beej said. "Come on -- let's get going already!"

"You can't go to the beach dressed like that," Lydia told him. "You need swimming trunks, sandals, a summer shirt ..."

"Like this?" he asked. He snapped his fingers and instantly his tattered and mouldy striped suit was replaced with a black-and-white striped short-sleeved shirt, a pair of bright green swimming trunks with a black beetle motif and a pair of flip-flops. And to complete the outfit, he had on a pair of slatted hot pink sunglasses. He looked adorably ridiculous.

"Perfect," Lydia said -- as usual, the joke was lost on the demon.

"Now can we go?" he asked impatiently.

*****

"Where's the food?" Beej asked when they arrived at the beach and got out of the car.

"Beej!" Lydia chided. "Give us a minute, will you?"

"Well, hurry up -- I'm hungry!" he grumbled.

Lydia opened the picnic basket and pulled out a sandwich in a Ziploc bag. She waved it in front of his face. He made a grab for it, but she was quicker.

"Ah, come on!"

"Fetch!" Lydia said, and threw it out of the car as far as she could. Beej tore off after it.

"Lydia," Delia said. "He's not a dog!"

Beej returned, munching happily on the sandwich. "It's okay, Mom," he said, and Delia's heart, as always, skipped a beat to hear him call her that. "I don't mind -- Lydia's my best friend."

"Where should we set ourselves up?" Charles asked, looking around.

"There's a nice spot over there," Delia replied, pointing to an unoccupied stretch of sand near the north end, just in front of a cluster of trees. "Some sun, some shade ..."

*****

After lunch, Lydia tried to persuade Beej to go swimming. "You can't go to the beach and not get in the water!"

"Nuh-uh," he said, crossing his arms defiantly. "Nothin' doin', kid. This demon doesn't go in the water for anyone!"

"Why not?" she asked. "Are you gonna melt or something?"

"No," he said petulantly. "I just don't like water, that's all."

"I bet you can't swim," she said. "You're afraid, aren't you?"

"I'm not afraid!" he scowled.

"Yes, you are -- you're a big, fat scaredy cat!" She put her hands on her hips and stuck out her tongue. "Scaredy cat, scaredy cat, scaredy cat!"

He glared at her, his hair turning magenta as he started huffing and puffing angrily. "I'll show you who's a scaredy cat!"

He hastily removed his shirt. Lydia got her phone out to capture the moment on video.

"RRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Beej yelled as he made a mad dash for the water. He was waist deep in the frigid Atlantic when he dove in headfirst.

Lydia and the others expected him to surface immediately, sputtering and coughing -- but he didn't.

"Beej?" Lydia called. "Beej! Are you okay?"

No answer. Lydia began to worry about her friend.

"BEEJ!" she screamed.

Nothing.

"Do you think he's all right?" Delia asked.

"I don't know," Charles replied, holding her. "Maybe there's a good reason he doesn't like water."

"BEEEEEJ!" Lydia, frantic now, ran into the water just as the demon had done, heading towards the spot where he'd disappeared.

Just as she got there, the demon erupted from the waves, grinning happily. He gave her two thumbs up. "I sure showed you, didn't I?" he said.

"You ... you rotten sonofa--" she wailed, half in anger and half in relief, tears flowing as she began beating her fists against his chest.

Beej grabbed her and held her tight. "Hey," he said quietly. "Hey -- I'm okay! It was just a joke." He grinned mischievously. "Who's the scaredy cat now?"

"You big jerk!" she replied. "I thought .. I didn't know --" She pulled away from him and smacked his shoulder. "What were you doing under there all that time, anyway?"

In reply, the demon reached into the pocket of his trunks, holding a tiny crab in the palm of his hand.

"Oh, he's so cute!" Lydia said, smiling at the little creature. "Hi there!"

The crab raised its claws in a defensive gesture.

"I think he likes you."

"We should put him back," Lydia told him.

"Okay," Beej replied, and he gently lowered his hand into the water and released the crustacean. "I just thought you'd like to meet him."

"Let's head back to the beach," Lydia said.

I admit, I have not too many but Subnormality and Scoob & Shag worked damn well for me

Subnormality, the comic with too many words, has had more moments than I can recall offhand that have touched me. I regret not making enough time for it but it is a commitment to read...

Scoob & Shag, a webcomic which may never get finished (we can only hope the creator will pull through and return to form)

I remember reading Atomic Robo a long time ago but never finished it. Maybe I should go back to it...

Does What Football Will Look Like in the Future count as a webcomic? It was certainly a bizarre journey but the absurdity of it all kept me going despite having zero interest in football :-)

And there's Jennifer Stolzer's "season 6" of Babylon 5 (which I also should really make time for...I blame having to work for a living...having to do so takes so much of the joy - what I still have remaining - that being alive can bring from me)

And, of course, Alice Hancock's Sweary She-Ra. Get into it! It was must-log-in reading for me for a couple years!

'i want a story that has x in it, but mainstream media doesn't have it' Read webcomics

'I wish that i could have this niche thing in stories'

Read webcomics

'there's too many x things in shows now, i wish there was something different'

⭐️READ WEBCOMICS!⭐️
