Gator Days Informational Post
Panel 1 Gustopher is breaking the fourth wall to tell you about all the different ways you can find the Gator Days. Gustopher: Hey! I'm Gustopher from the comic Gator Days! I have information for you! August: Oh no, he's addressing the audience again. Panel 2 Gustopher: Here are the places you can find us under the name FieldExplores. Gustopher presents a list of locations you can read Gator Days. The list includes Reddit, Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, and Tumblr. Twitter/X is at the bottom of the list but has been crossed out. Mewbert: Mew? (possibly meaning "What a fantastic list, but what if I wish to support the creator of this comic through financial contributions? In addition, once we are done I would like someone to pet me and bring me snacks) Panel 3 Gustopher: GREAT QUESTION! You can also find us at Patreon and Ko-Fi if you'd like to help support the comic. Patreon has early access comics! Panel 4 Gustopher: Links in the comment section. August: What comment section? Is the audience in the room with us? After the events of this comic, August questioned Gustopher about everything he just said. Gustopher couldn't remember saying any of it and went back to playing video games. August decides not to push the issue of breaking the fourth wall any further.

I thought you were talking about the Nintendo e-reader at first and was about to start a fifty page essay on card based video game technology until I realized my error.

Somehow, I have never managed to wrap my head around the rules to Yu-Gi-Oh. I have no idea why my brain can't seem to understand it. I blame the anime.

Unruly Card Games - Gator Days
Unruly Card Games - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Hannah and Gustopher are playing card games on a rainy day. Hannah notices that Gustopher seems to have made a play that he's not supposed to. Hannah is quick to correct this. Hannah: You can't do that. Gustopher: Why? Hannah: It's against the rules. Gustopher: It is? Panel 2 Hannah rolls her eyes and pulls out her phone. Looks like they're going to have to look up the rules and make sure they're both playing the same way. Hannah: Ugh! Let's both read through the rules so we're on the same page. Gustopher: Okay. Panel 3 Hannah is staring at her phone and is not really sure what she's reading. What is a Redoubled Contract? Isn't a Grand Slam something you get at restaurants? Why does it say they need four players? Panel 4 Hannah is starting to put the pieces together. Hannah: I don't think either of us are playing right. Gustopher: I don't know what half these words mean. Seriously! What's a "Dummy Hand" and an "Unfinished Rubber".

In one match I will be a helpless child constantly running away from the scary monsters that surround me.

In the next I will be an eldritch horror raining destruction upon the insect-like beings cowering before me.

It's a good game.

I am so happy we have an art genre that repeatedly captures the experience of remembering a strange video game that you've only ever seen screenshots for in a 90's gaming magazine.

I thought she would be saying "Quest 64" when I pressed unmute. 1/10, literally unplayable.

Think of the Children - Gator Days
Think of the Children - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August is on the phone with his mother. She sent him a rather distressing video that she found on the internet. May: Augie! Did you see the video I sent? August: The one with the bird flying off with a baby? Panel 2 May is distraught! Why isn't anyone doing anything to save all these babies? Has the government even addressed the issue? May: It's terrible! I hope the baby is okay. August: Mom, you know it's AI, right? Panel 3 We now see May in the kitchen sipping from her ugliest coffee mug that is conveniently labelled "UGLY MUG". Her husband and August's father, Fergus, is looking at what's in the freezer. Looks like it's just an ice cream container that's been filled with soup. May: That can't be. What would someone gain from faking that? Panel 4 May is beginning to question August's questioning of questionable things. Where in the world could he have obtained this questioning habit. May: Why do you question everything? August: That's how you raised me! It's okay, May will soon forget about the abundance of AI generated videos of bird flying off with innocent babies after she stumbles onto the AI generated videos of elderly women being thrown out of windows.

Other people getting in the way of having a fun time is the perfect way to practice for City Trials.

Mature Drinks for Mature People - Gator Days
Mature Drinks for Mature People - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August and Gustopher are at a small coffee shop to get some drinks. The employee at the cash register looks like they haven't slept in a couple days. They probably haven't. I hope they're okay. August: One medium mocha and a small hot cocoa with extra whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles. Gustopher: WAIT! Panel 2 Gustopher has grown much more mature and sophisticated in this past year. He is becoming a man of fine taste and wishes for only the most sophisticated of drinks to sip on this cold autumn day. Gustopher: My tastes are maturing. I want my drink to reflect that. Panel 3 Gustopher slaps on his most adult and sophisticated looking face. He's prepared for this moment. He's ready. He's going to order his drink. Gustopher: I WANT- Panel 4 Gustopher: A hot cocoa with extra whipped cream and CHOCOLATE sprinkles. The employee has become distracted by their phone. WOW! There's a video of an absolutely very real bird flying off with an absolutely very real baby. This is clearly a video that was recorded by an actual living individual and not made by a computer. Why isn't someone doing something about all these birds flying off with babies? That's like the fiftieth video I've seen on the topic this week.

I like the part in the first game where a character says "Wow, this fried chicken is delicious. It makes it a lot easier to be spending [camera zoom] Five Nights at Freddy's."

I've been interested but I haven't picked it up because of this feeling that I've heard too much praise and now my expectations are far too high. It can be hard to tell if a game is the revolutionary new thing people make it out to be or if it's a case of several people discovering a genre.

How to Food - Gator Days
How to Food - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August has a variety of ingredients on the kitchen counter. Including "Meaty Sodium Strips", cheese, eggs, an onion, a tomato, and what one might assume is olive oil but the bottle says "All of Oil" so honestly, I don't know what it is. Gustopher is unsure what this is all about. August is wearing his "COOKING PAPA" apron. Gustopher: Are you making omelettes? August: I'm teaching you how to make them. Panel 2 Gustopher is surprised. His Dad has always taken care of the majority of cooking. The Meaty Sodium Strips are just chilling on the counter. Gustopher: Really? You always make breakfast. August: I won't always be around to make it. Panel 3 Suddenly, Gustopher is hit with an overwhelming sense of dread. He's not really registering what his dad is saying. The Meaty Sodium Strips sit menacingly on the counter. August: And learning to cook is important. First we should- Panel 4 Gustopher flings his arms in the air and yells out- Gustopher: I DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE! It occurs to August that he probably could have phrased his comment about not being around to make breakfast a little better. The Meaty Sodium Strips want you to know that one strip contains five hundred times your recommended daily allotment of sodium.

Depends on the lighthouse. Are we talking about one that's frequently surrounded by storms and has a ghost of a former keeper to keep me company? Because I'd be down for that.

Without going into great detail, it's place where men who are fond of men go to do things with men. I think it's slang that's only used in North America and it's not that common any more.

Relax - Gator Days
Relax - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Polly is attempting to relax at a coffee shop. Unfortunately, her mom asked her to bring her little sister along. Polly just wants to sit and enjoy her coffee but Olivia will be having none of that. Olivia: Why do you like coffee shops? Polly: The relaxing ambiance. I honestly don't know whether I should spell it ambience or ambiance so I'm spelling it one way in the comic and another way in the transcript. Panel 2 Olivia is not finding this relaxing at all. It's just boring. Olivia: What's relaxing? The bad music? The old people? Polly: It's the vibe. There is an older woman standing nearby and Olivia has said what she said in a loud enough voice to possibly offend. Fortunately for her, this old person has ruined her hearing. Please remember to bring ear protection to loud concerts, places with loud machinery, and coffee shops that play bad music. Panel 3 Suddenly, Olivia starts vibrating. She somehow managed to get the staff to serve her coffee. Olivia: I'm not relaxed! I'm shaking! Polly: I told you to get decaf! Panel 4 Perhaps this isn't as boring as Olivia originally thought. Olivia: And you don't look relaxed. Polly: BECAUSE OF YOU! Olivia is not going to sleep tonight.

It is understandable. I feel like Emboar deserved better. I was hoping that Z-A would give us a regional variant with different typing but it tragically wasn't meant to be.
