[Siya]

The OS 9s are getting gifts!  Hurrah!  Sonata-sensei's expression is wonderful! ^__^

[C-Chan]

Thank you, Siya.  ^^

This pairing was also Aurora-dono's idea, only this time she also had in mind giving OS-9-tan a single-panel cameo.  So this one, I'm happy to say, is butcher-free.  ^.^

As for a commentary,...

It may not be readily apparent, but that's a microphone inside OS-9-tan's gift box.  Now the reason why the OSX-kuns are looking confused is that they've customarily always wound up being delivered to OS-9-tan -- and while they originally intended their gig for OS9-oneesan, after about 6-7 years they've gotten used to tormenting the dark-haired "oneesan".  

So now that the package isn't mixed up anymore,... well...  ^^;

[Bella]

Do you know if there is an actual word for "spam" in Russian? 'v'

If there is I don't know of it...

Naaaaaaaaaaaaturally! ^v^
I mean I wish I could fit one of the ancient OS-tans in the story, but since everything's already planned out I'm afraid that's not possible.

With the exception, maybe, of GECOS-san.....

...

...Okay, I'll see what I can do. ^.^

Oh, well I think a lot of the oldies like to keep to themselves...

It's none other than Russian Volleball Superstar and All-Around Goddess!!!!

Number Eleven!!!!!!!

GAM THE GREAT, EKATERINA GAMOVA!!!!!!!!!! ^V^

Aha! I should have known it! She's like...6' 8'' or something

OH, AND PROGRESS UPDATE!!!!!!!

PAGE 10, PANEL 3 VECTOR SKETCH IS FINISHED!!!!!!!!!! ^v^

Ooooh! OS9-tan and Mac OS 9-tan! Both looking very cute

Freak me out as it may, I LOL'd as the "MoeMoe Stripe Troupe" on the box...XD

The majority do, yes.  ^__^
But GECOS-tan is too dynamic a character to lock away in that convent (oh sorry, I meant "Mainframe Guild".... ^.^), so I'm leaning towards making her a CIOST member.  She'd kinda be to the CIOST what EXEC-tan is to the Binteji Renmei; an elderly member that the younger OS-tans can look up to.  Course, it wouldn't work quite that smoothly,....  Â¬Â¬;

*covers cheeks*

*blushes*

*squeals*  ^V^

6'9" officially.  ^___^

But very very very very pretty (even with her athletic wear, but more so in civilian wear) and from what I've heard not as annoyingly self-conscious about her height (a very admirable trait, considering how much attention she grabs otherwise).  Perfection at its best!  ^0^

*sings off-key love song*

Here's hoping she and her team get Gold in Beijing!

Thank you Bella-san.  ^^
I wanted to really drill down on the similarity between OS-9 and Sonata-san,... to the point that if Sonata-sensei cut her hair, and OS-9 dyed hers, they'd could practically pass for identical twins.  ^.^
(hmmmm... maybe a story idea?)

The originally name for the OSX-kun's perversity was the "MoeMoe sha! Chippendales", but that sounded too,... proprietary (plus there's some nasty history tied to it).  ^^;

The more generic "Strip Troupe" sounds about right, and has a slight rhyme to it.  ^___^;

Been reading 3 pages for an update. I really like Aurora-hime's work on the holiday special so far!

RHL-san's concern towards Fedora-san, a cameo for Linux-tan, a C-chan newly inspired DOS,  ++'s Viru-tan cameo.

"...Okay then, how about I sweeten the deal?
You lend me some of your minions for the night, and I'll file the necessary paperwork to see if I can pull those generals of yours out of Quarantine."

"I see now why YOU are a woman of bussiness. Very well, I shall consent to the conditions of this trade, oh POSIX-compliant creature dressed like Santa"

I really feel quoting that (from the 9th page) for the whole thread. I like Viru-tan's elitist-type of response to RHL-tan's corporate-esque approach. Viru-tan's speech makes her look respected and more importantly-a fun to see, rather than seeing her as a character which provides a threat. It was actually a nice touch on the following panel in which she gave a witty line in that made the two little DOSes go -_-" . Thumbs up to Bella on that one!  ;010



My greeting is so late I guess, but still a late happy birthday to Aurora-hime.


....oh and C, thanks for the 10th page. It was nice seeing a cameo of OS-9 tan and Sonata-sensei  ;061

Aha, you made it!  ^^
Plus "Aurora-hime" sounds better than "Aurora-dono",... wonder why it never occurred to me before.  ^.^

*puts on Notes*

ROMDOS-tan was the alst DOS-tan to be drawn in some way, so I figured the comic would be the perfect medium for her to make her debut.  There are still some new characters waiting to appear, so hang on to your hats!  ^___^

Ahh,... you used "Quarantine" -- very good.  ^.^
Not sure what more ++ had in mind for Viru-sama, besides the description you gave me -- but since I've always viewed her as the Queen of the Viruses, I always made it a point to think of her as being classy and elitist, despite the fact that she leads a pack of misfits and troublemakers.  ^.^

In fact, that "thank you" drawing I made with her and BeOS-chan is a bit sacriligious, as she would never stoop to the level of a waitress (unless it was part of a ruse to ambush a Windows-tan).  ^.^

Couldn't decide whether to give her the sword or the glave, but settled on the glave since it made her look more "Linux like" (cause she's visiting a Linux airship, after all).  Plus I get the feeling her weapon can morph into various shapes, a take on the adaptability of viruses.

The DOS-tans used to get hounded by viruses all the time, so no way are they gonna trust her.  (although RH-tan couldn't care less)  ^.^

....oh and C, thanks for the 10th page. It was nice seeing a cameo of OS-9 tan and Sonata-sensei

Thank you, Alfa-san.  ^___^
But I prefer to call her "OS-9-sensei".

You know.... just to keep with the whole "identical twin" thing.  ^.^

[C-Chan]

Haven't posted on of these in ages, but finally got around to working on the last panel.  ^___^

A very heartwarming scene....



....just as long as you watch where you step.  ^^'

[Aurora Borealis]

panel 3 review:Hahaha! OS-9-tan sure is happy about getting the gift that actually is to her (and also being exempt from perverted antics that Christmas) but Mac OS 9-tan... ehhh... Not so much!

OSX-kuns: Huh? Onee-san is a blonde again? And why doesn't she look too happy?-- Uh oh...

panel 4 review: Wow! Excellent use of forced perspective with panel 4!

---

Uhh... C-Chan, remember when we were doing that Mac Party comic last year? Is it okay if I continue it again? I still remember all the suggested ideas! (Of course I will still continue my part with the ZS holiday special!)

[Siya]

That's awesome!  I....I just like it a whole bunch!  I don't know what else to say.

[C-Chan]

OSX-kuns: Huh? Onee-san is a blonde again? And why doesn't she look too happy?-- Uh oh...

LOL!  ^___^
BTW, I added someone else to that scene.  Only YOU know who it is, though, due to SVG exclusivity.  ^___^

panel 4 review: Wow! Excellent use of forced perspective with panel 4!

Thank you, it's my kind of picture!  ^v^
I really have to tha--

[freaks]  ZOMG!!!!!!  AURORA-HIME!!!!!!  WATCH--  WATCH WHERE YOU'RE STEPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ;^0^;

Uhh... C-Chan, remember when we were doing that Mac Party comic last year? Is it okay if I continue it again? I still remember all the suggested ideas!  (Of course I will still continue my part with the ZS holiday special!)

Sure, I wouldn't mind at all.  ^___^
Not sure how often I can contribute, but for sure I'll be glad to help.  Would be a good way to get those two first pages published finally.  `v'

*observes where Siya-san is standing*

Mmmm...... you're good.  -v-
Now help me stop Aurora-hime from standing on the grass.  ^.^

[Kami-Tux]

Heh! This penguin squawks something about the 4th panel being just insanely cute, nearly kernelpanics and waddles off.

[Bella]

Awww, cute! I concur that this is a great job with perspective!

Hmmmm...is it just me, or is Cascade-tan looking especially Mikuru-esque?

[Techno the fox]

Aaah! It seems It's been a while since I've last been to this topic.


Starting with the first pic on this page.
The DOSes are really cute as elves, So is Miggy-sama, though she sticks out just a bit I can't possibly argue with someone as beautiful as her. ^_^

Second one: Y'know, I'd never really heard of OS-9 until I started reading ZerOSanity. Sonata doesn't look too thrilled about her present. XD

Third one: Oh My Gosh...Sooooo Cute ^___^
*Pulls out a small sign that reads "Watch your step, small linuxes" and sets it down*

And to think that the Penguin God has DSL-tan (or -kun?) in her old laptop (or as she calls it, her "Craptop").  ^.^

Awww, cute! I concur that this is a great job with perspective!

Had to practice that if I ever HOPED to even fathom the thought of a Damn Small comic.  ^^

Hmmmm...is it just me, or is Cascade-tan looking especially Mikuru-esque?

Cascada-chan?  Looking like Mikuru-chan?  Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah......  ^v^

Believe you and me, the sticking-out part was 120% intentional.  ^________________^

I do have to thank Aurora-sama for coming up with the idea -- I wouldn't have thought of that myself.  ^^

Second one: Y'know, I'd never really heard of OS-9 until I started reading ZerOSanity. Sonata doesn't look too thrilled about her present. XD

Whoops d00d!

You missed one (the one with ME-tan, GS/OS-tan and ChainsawLinux-tan).  The OS-9/OS9 piece is actually the 3rd panel.  ^___^'

Third one: Oh My Gosh...Sooooo Cute ^___^
*Pulls out a small sign that reads "Watch your step, small linuxes" and sets it down*

Good thinking.  ^.^
Now I can go ahead and process my encore photo shoots.  ^___^
*calls up CE-tan*

I actually could use some more ideas right now ^^;
