Loose ends

I decided to write a script for the rest of YU+ME. Scripting out Conscience's story has made the making of pages for it go a lot more smoothly, so I'm doing it for the rest.

Now, I'm pretty sure I've got all my loose ends tied up, BUT just in case, I wanted to ask you what you're still wondering about that hasn't been answered. Anything at all. Any little details you've always wondered about. I've made such an intricate story, that I just know there will be one or two things I forget if I don't ask.

The main plot is all good to go, but as a reader, I hate getting to the end of a story only to be irked forever about a detail that the author never resolved.

Any questions you ask here I won't answer in this space. You'll have to wait until it comes up in the comic.

• What is Clandy exactly?
  
• What is the relationship between the Real World and the Dream World? I mean, is it an alternate dimension, a far-away planet, etc.?
  
• Why did Lia decide to hijack Fiona's Coma Dream in the first place? (this may have been addressed already, but...)
  
• Why did Don also decide to hijack Fiona's Coma Dream?
  
• What exactly is a Conscience's role in the Dream World? Apparently they dont' appear in dreams very often, and they're probably too busy to be writers or actors, so why are they in the Dream World? Well, other than that being their place of employment...
  
• How did Fiona get to be so famous in the Dream World, anyway?
  
• Just... who/what is Sadako?
  
• Will we be meeting all of the actors that played in Fiona's Coma Dream?

There are probably more... and a lot of these will very obviously be addressed later, but...

i have the answer to this question.
the dreams are showed on tv, like a series. her's is like ... 90210 ... except it's ... not 90210... but it's like that, a drama, a TV show and a very very popular one at that.

They biggest one that comes to my mind is the mysterious book that helps Fiona beat Sadako's enforced insomnia, and the author's mysteriously familiar name.

It may have been implied to be answered by the fact that Sebastian's a huge jerk-face, but I've always wondered why Lucy seemed not to like him.
Also, Lia's conscience.

I pretty curious how her dreams relate to her real life.

Where has her real father been?

Is Elizabeth really her step-mom?

Since Fiona forced herself to go back to sleep, has her journey in dream world all taken place in one night or did she slip into another coma or is she constantly waking up but we just don't see that part and her dream takes up where it left off?

Lia?
Sadako?
Clandestine?

The names of the other members of the Dream Liberation Front?

Will Sebastian be turned into a gyro?

Will Sebastian be the tastiest of gyros?

im totally stealing this from the cbox but i think its interresting

if lia is a dreamco worker, why does she have a conscience if shes already a dream and consciences seem to come from dream co

There is one thing bothering me. If Lia's part in Fiona's dream was unplanned, and we just saw Mary reading a line about Lia from her script, that must mean Mary's script was written pretty far along in Fiona's coma dream in order for it to make sense. It's just, the way Mary's boss talked about it - "Well, she's alive. Barely." - seemed like Fi's coma dream hadn't started yet, or had just begun. I'm just confused about the time frame here.

Remember, Fiona's dream was originally planned for her to fall in love with Sarah. So the script is the same, but the person those lines are directed at changed.

Really! I managed to completely miss that somehow. xD Well, that clears it up.

I to am curious about the book Fi found that taught her how ot return to the dream world. I have my theroies, and I'd like to see if the're correct or not.

Waaait a second, you didn't write a script for everything that came before? X_x
Geez, but... it's all so... good. (Yes, I believe that to be good a story must be well planned and scripted. They hammer this in our minds every day in film school =P)

Well, I'm sure this has not slipped your mind but bell us what Clandestine is, please? Everybody seems to know it in the comics already -,- I am one of those people who like to know things before the characters, I don't like when fictitious people know more than me.

I didn't have it scripted, but I did have it planned. I've decided to write down a more detailed version of my original plan, but I want to make sure I don't leave anything out.

Sorry if it sounded wrong, I did know you planned, I didn't mean to say different (I knew 'cause of your comments when she woke up and all), and by all means, I was only expressing how admirable it was that you did such a good job without a previous script.

I mean, there is another very good webcomic I enjoy that the author told me she didn't do scripts, and barely plans, letting it flow out basically. And it is very good. But it shows, you know what I mean? I don't know exactly what is your workflow, but from you telling me that you did no script for this, my impression is that you did not know what the dialogs would be, what the panel distribution and formating would be... And your narrative still flows greatly. You must have a natural understanding of the media to do that kinda flow without the script. That makes me admire you a lot.

I just thought of something. What the heck is No-face guy? Is he a minion of Sadako? A kind of demon/monster that roams around invading dreams? I'd love to know the truth behind that freak.

Coincidentally, I'm working on future comics, and I just answered that very question JUST NOW.

In your earlier comics, it was said that "James" was a "special case". Why?

I am curious about Sadako's background. But it doesn't have much to do with Fiona's story. Perhaps it is more about something that could be sort of a secondary story that I would be interested in reading.

I know we're reaching near the end but.... woo for bumping old threads...



http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1474 Who left the note for Mary? I really can't think of anyone.

http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1432 Whatever happened to Enid? By the looks of it she and Mary were close. I know Enid didn't want to lose her job by talking to Mary, but what were they to each other?

http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1539 Why is Baku mean when he use to be so nice?

http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1612 Fiona use to dream in dream world but suddenly stopped having dreams. How is it that the dream world is suppose to be a production of actors and whatnot but Fiona can dream in the dream world? At that point is it just her own mind? I don't know. The entire 'ability to dream in Dream World' seems kind of.. off to me.

http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1982 At the bottom... who is that in particular? I know the harpies kidnapped Lucy and all but usually (to me) if you see a particular character that asks "You wanted to see me" that they would have a bigger roll than one line?

It was Lia's conscience who ( for the life of me I can't remember her name ) left the note for Mary, it's cleared up on Page 729 - http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1986

Oh right. I had forgotten about that comment.


either way the rest (I think) hasn't been cleared up D:

This was the root of another thread, but I thought I'd mention it here -

Lucy's fate is a loose end (a Lucy end?). What happens to her now that Sadako is gone, and Fi's ruler of Nod?

Don is a one big loose end. We know he wasn't in the script at first, and we know that Sadako adjusted the script around what was happening in the dream. But why did he even come there in the first place? What business he had with Fiona's dream? Who is he even?

Damnit, I wanna know if the Orange Witch ever paid Fi's conscience back the money she owed.
