My dad is out of the hospital, for now, but still has lingering symptoms of what put him there. The oncologist is giving up on his first choice treatment and I guess we’ll see how plan B fares? We thought he’d rally a bit by being home, but not so far. I feel like he’s mentally having a hard time, and it’s not easy to heal the physical when your brain/emotional state isn’t co-operating :(
I also tried REALLY hard to remember this time which Evil hand is damaged, and still almost forgot.
TEXT:
The lion horked and retched, the making of the world’s biggest hairball rippling its way up his heaving back. Then he chocked out a mangled, half dissolved fish, a couple of fully formed salmon, a brace of pigeons, a pattering of too many crabby legs, an adult dolphin, and an irate and alarmingly large octopus. Crack forced out a kitchen sink too, for flavour, then let the lion collapse. The sink dissolved into the ‘ground’ while the animals swam or flew away into the mist. The octopus attempted to fight its way back inside Lionel’s panting jaws, then Crack took pity on him and wished it away.
Evil danced a little jig and grinned at Crack, smiley face ball cap back in place, but boutonniere drooping. “That was FANTASTIC! It looked incredibly PAINFUL! I will treasure and replay that memory OFTEN when I’m alone at night!”

Sorry to hear about your father and here’s hoping the plan B works and that he doesn’t have a negative reaction this time around.
Also, I know I was the one that initially brought up the hand thing, but if it makes you feel any better, I get my left and right mixed up all the time in real life 3D meatspace, sooo… >_>;
Basically, I’m not judging. ;)

So, Lionel’s eating a concerning amount of seafood… That interesting. Also, the octopus wanted back in his mouth? That’s weird… Could also be a secret shame or something he wants to keep under wraps; I’m no psychiatrist, but it seems to make a bit of sense. Anyway, time to dig through Lionel’s brain… And can someone please make sure Evil doesn’t lose a paw, for the love of all that’s decent?!

@Murphy: I wouldn’t say it’s an OCD thing, more a continuity thing. I mean, in real life you’d expect some with a scar over their left eye to still have it over their left eye every time you see them.
OCD would be more like if there was a character with detailed markings and the artist just HAD to make sure they were exactly the same every single time.
@Alison: Adding on to my last comment, was drawing something last night, realized I drew a belt fastened the wrong way (I can never NOT seem to do this first time around). So again, ain’t just you. :)
