Questions I've received (Full Version):
From Shinakira

I
have a question about Nemi and Fes and possibilities of hooking
up or will she go to his roomie?
Relationships, as how
you are asking, are up in the air at the moment, and have always
been up in the air. I will say that when I originally came up with
the concept for Nemi (about 8-9 months ago), such relationships
were not in the plan at all. From here on, I'll have to see how
things go.
Will
Nemi go were rabbit?
I'm assuming you mean
"again" or "after the 're-birth' of the
comic". Short answer: I'm not sure. It's an interesting
mechanic that I would like to use again. Long answer: don't really
have a long answer :P.
Will
their me a spoof on some video game/ game system coming out? (
Super smash bros brawl)
As far as video game
strips, it's a bit touchy. I usually try to incorporate such jokes
or references within the comic itself as a conversation. If you
are asking if I may make some sort of comic where I dress them up
as characters from video games or such, That would most likely
never happen as "canon", and would happen as a
"Bonus Strip" or "Art Strip". However.... now
that I thought of it... this might be a cool idea for a Wallpaper
or something. I'll keep it in mind.
Will
their be a another camping trip? with mishaps?
I hope so. We'll have
to see how it goes, as far as how soon it may happen. I have a
couple other places I wanted the non-stories to go first.

1.
What's up with Ford? He seems to know more than he lets
on. Will he become a more regular part of the cast at some
point?
Ford was a character
made originally with no purpose... so I had to try and make a
purpose. he turned out to be another Webcomic Aware character that
was Context Sensitive.... There is actually very little that he does
not know as far as figuring out a situation, and knows a bit about
almost everything, but only a lot about a limited amount of things.
Will he become a MORE regular character? I don't know.
2.
What do Fes and Ernst DO, exactly? For a living, I mean.
They've got to pay the rent somehow...
I had never established
what Fes and Ernst do for a living... mostly because I cut it out
because I felt it would take way too much time to go into. I kinda
like then not having any other obligations and just do their own
thing. Will this change in the "rebirth"? Not sure.
From FalseBlue
A
question would be, regularity? Weekly, or other.
Start as weekly, and
feel it out from there.
Another
question, change of design? Or, will the same unique design be
used :)
I'm hoping to improve on
same style I've always had. I'll try to do better backgrounds than I
had most recently done.
Why is there a star on Feswork's
hoodie?
When I actually draw the
star on the shirt, it is supposed to be a Fabulous Disaster band
T-Shirt as I started it from this
strip. It is actually a t-shirt OVER a hoodie.... which I
actually own. I'll try to get a picture up sometime.
Whats the difference between Fes, Fesworks, and Ernst?
Who do they represent?
From Mirz

PSI is about two
roommates that went to college and didn't really graduate with
anything useful. They continue to live together because its cheaper,
and they handle things as they happen... and practically anything is
possible it seems.
Click
here to read about how the canon and non-canon, and time work.
What
you would like the strip to become?
A commercial success was
never planned for PSI. In fact I went in thinking that noone would
read it at all... ever. I would like PSI to become a comic with an
active audience. Not saying a large audience, just an audience that
posts in the message board or the chat box a lot. But I think I have
to do something better for that to happen. I might have to redesign the entire site to a WordPress ComicPress design to allow
comments.... but I'm not sure.

Are you going to do some
more short story arcs, or are you going to go for something
longer? And what kind of story are you aiming for? Something more
serious? Less serious? Just plain weird?
I want to do much
shorter arcs, and bring back more of what it was before I went all
kinda serious, and before the Crossover Wars.
Am
I right in saying you're planning to start again from the end of
the arc with Nemi's fight with Kerr?
Yes, basically. I was
going to rework what was going to happen with Nemi into the
Crossover Wars portion, but it was too different and complicated.
I'm going to do things more of how I originally wanted.
Would
Nemi actually get on with Fes and Ernst? She seems pretty
determined and action driven, whereas they seem more given to
rambling. But Nemi strikes me as the
kind of person who would smack you round the head if you did too
much of it in her presence. Or am I wrong about that?
I originally designed
Nemi to give a female presence to the comic. Her design is based off
of a few traits I actually find attractive in women. The Idea of
possible relationships popped into my head, but I never actually
determined ANY of my characters' sexuality before, and I had never
fully considered anyone to really have a relationship with anyone...
soooooo.... I don't know :P
I
also worry that she might seem too saintly in comparison to the
guys - or not saintly exactly, but ... perfect? Or not given to
doing things wrong except for the best of reasons? So I'd like to
ask: What's the stupidest thing Nemi has ever done, and what's her
most annoying characteristic / habit?
Well, she is actually a
Priestess of Witchcraft, so naturally she carries her weight with a
lot of responsibility, a sense of duty and righteousness, and good
will.... to a fault.... she does need to chill a bit.... but other
than that we have not been able to see all of her personality yet.
The stupidest thing she had ever done was trust Kerr over 500 years
ago. Her most annoying trait/habit? hmmm... I'll have to
thinking about that for later.
Do Fes and Ernst have a
job? Or more importantly, do they have a job they would like to do
even if they're not doing it yet? I guess I'm asking - is there
anything they're particularly skilled at / enjoy doing? They spend
so much time caught up in adventures that you don't know much
about what they would do under normal circumstances.
Actually, only 5
days (4 nights) have passed in the comic. There was an night
in the Brains mini arc. There was a night in the camping arc, and
there was a night in the graveyard arc, and I'm saying that the 2nd
Crossover Wars part would have another night... so that would
be 5 days, but I'll be rewinding back to when the 4th was
beginning.... so they could have been on vacation. I thought about
what their job would be, but I figured that there would not be a
whole lot of time to go into it (as it it didn't matter). When I
restart I'll have to decide something, but right now I have no final
plan.
Did
they know each other before they moved in together - and if so
where / how? Or did they meet up through being housemates?
They went to college
together. That is also where they met. I plan to do a flashback arc at some point as well.
How
long had Nemi been trapped in that rock? How did she know Reevo?
500 years, and the rest
is answered in
another question
And
why did she want to die?
It's not that she
"wants" to die.... she already *IS* dead. She wants her
soul taken to judgement along with Reevo... and to a lesser extent
with Kerr as well. Pay attention to as few strips Starting
Here. I tried to show that she was a ghost/spirit like
Reevo and Kerr after she transformed back into her human form... she
also shed her faux body.
If
you're cutting out the webcomic awareness, does that mean the
Fesworks character is not going to appear again?
I'm going to try and
keep Fesworks out of the canon strips, and keep him only in
non-canon scenes... as I... he... was meant to be. He only came out
more with the Crossover Wars... because of the nature of
"reality as we knew it" was breaking down.
How
to Fes and Ernst feel about having to be non-webcomics aware
again?
Nemi, Fes, Ernst, and
Ford are all WCA. They will all still be WCA after the restart...
its just that they will not (or try not ) to bring it up in canon
strips. I'm going to have a talk with them about it. Since I have
personally decided to have PSI share basically the same rules of the
Evil Overlords United and CameoComic, I really can't take that away
from them.
From The
Mortician (Project ADAM)
(approx.)
Describe the comic's world, please.
... as far as the
World of PSI... well, its a duality (see
below)... in one perspective, its a webcomic... pure and
simple.... in the "reality" within itself, its is
basically this: It is our basic world in which humanoid evolution
took place among most animals, as well as other large/accelerated
evolutions of other species... magic exists, or at least used to
exist more prevalently in the past.... not really much else to
explain until I come to something else that requires it...
Ultimately anything is possible to happen in P.S.I.
(approx.)
Describe the story behind Nemi, Reevo, and Kerr, please.
The story behind Nemi,
Kerr, and Reevo is so incredibly CLICHE I'd rather not go into too
much detail.
(approx.)
Ok, well, what about the magick, weapons, and transformations?
I'll
release this story and details within the comic as I see proper...
I've developed some better ideas and background for this.
From Wrincewind
It
may have been asked before, or even answered, but do Fes and/or
Ernst have any family?
Actually, this has not
been asked before. In the context of the comic, I never considered
it. I actually don't think it will ever come up, actually. Not in
an important way anyway.
I
mean, we don't know much about what happened before the got a
room... Just how did that happen, anyway?
There was not so much
thought other than they met at college. I have at least one
flashback planned. Many of these such details were not so much
planned for this type of comic. *shrug*
And
what do bugs taste like?
How
old are these guys? and when're their birthdays?
"mid-20s"...
Fes, September. Ernst, October. Nemi, May.
From Fes'
Brother
(approx.)
When the hell are the Crossover Wars [in your comic] going to end?
I don't like all the crossovers.
About 5 strips before
doing the restart I have been talking about. After that, there are a
couple existing CameoComic and Ardra strips that will use them (and
which will be archived here). There might be a couple other strips
in the Fur Brigade that will use Fesworks, Fes, Ernst, and Nemi, but
those will happen later. PSI's restart will not wait for them.
From Diana
Nock
PSI is a world of Duality.
There is the "in-comic"
story and world, and there is the "It's a webcomic"
world... which is prevalent in the Crossover Wars sections, and just
is 4th wall breaking the rest of the time.

Everything is PSI canon. Though
not everything is canon to all stories and arcs, particularly with
non-main characters... I think this is the best I
can describe PSI and how it's "reality" works.
Quick notes on Time
Passage: only 5
days (4 nights) will have passed in PSI before I sorta restart,
eliminated the 4th and 5th day, and the premise of Fes and Ernst may
be modified slightly... we'll see. Oh, also over a year has passed
for Fes and Ernst as well... since they went from camping in summer
and then winter in the graveyard in a period of 2 nights. This time discrepancy
will still exist, but hopefully not so drastically. It will depend
on the arc and how much time I can BS that had passed between strips
or arcs. All I can say is for you to "go with it". It's
not an important factor for me, other than that seasons still happen
in the same order.
