Several needles in a haystack.
Thanks to buddies who let me borrow their characters for the background here!

As a pudgy old guy, I’d just like to say thanks for including a token pudgy old guy among all the smart, fit, good looking, young passengers.
hah, he is a friend's D&D character :) rest of our party are there too, a little more human-shaped than usual though- the whole first panel is a bunch of our group's RPG characters! loved these goobers.
Is there more art of them we can see somewhere?
i didn't draw the D&D gang too much online cus all my doodle energy for that game went into a series of notebooks i was keeping, cus the plot was pretty dense and my character Sonnet was a writer bard, so it felt fitting to do so :) probably won't scan those though since it was a published adventure path and they're wildly full of spoilers. also there are just... so many pages........
did draw the other group from the first panel like a million times though, that's our shadowrun gang! bunch of sketches of them on my tumblr here. [https://katedrawscomics.tum...](https://katedrawscomics.tumblr.com/search/shadowfun "https://katedrawscomics.tumblr.com/search/shadowfun")
Just binged the whole thing and I got to say the Updog thing exudes "Do what you must, I've already won" energy.
lmao, pulling off an updog as that character was my proudest moment at the gaming table. second proudest was when another player guessed his phone's pin correctly, no hints required
They look wonderful.
It has been ages since I was able to play RPG at a table. Luckily, I have a group of good friends over the net/Maptools, but that's not the same.
that's a shame that its not in person, but great that you still get to play!
I want to play whatever they're playing on the last panel, but it'd take just one wrong move to get the hockey puck into the water :D
Shuffleboard I believe, a bit like a boat based version of curling.
Still, hockey-on-a-boat sounds likes loads of fun. And very, very wet.
The love triangle - or just brooding jealousy - going on in panel 1 looks interesting.
Sadly I don't think it amounts to a triangle because in a closer inspection the person being fed in panel 1 and the one talking to the vest-guy in panel 2 wear different clothing.
Look at all these people in vests! I wish vests like these were in fashion; they look so good! I also love that last panel of competitive women in dresses.
Seconding you on the waistcoats! I love how they look on all genders of people.
Vests and waistcoats kinda came back when steampunk edged a hair into mainstream and it was gobbled up by some form of hipster. But it's still out there because it seems to have hit the sweet spot of people who want and wear them exist in enough numbers to support a market.
But honestly, at this time just do it and own it and no one will really care.
Oh is that Kiryu and Majima I am seeing in the middle
mmmmmaybe
Heh, for a second one of the ladies in the last panel looked like Ms Superbia (Actually Tilde, if I'm not mistaken). A few things are off, though. Also, different generation. A cousin or niece, maybe?
It's her pose, I think, coupled with the fact that she's next to a lady in a green dress.
(I had the same impression, though!)
My bet is on the widow in panel 3 being Verity. :D
She's black, though.
True, but the smile seems appropriate, and I wouldn't put it past her to have a way to disguise herself like this...
Why do I keep looking for Doris?
