Where were we indeed? And he's how old now!?
Christmas update schedule:
Sorry about there being no update last week. But don't worry, I've been working diligently on new pages. So diligent in fact that as a lil' christmas treat, there will be extra pages of Voidchild for the next two weeks.
In other words: from now until the 2nd of January there will be two pages/week on Wednesdays and Sundays! =)
If you enjoy Voidchild please consider subscribing, rating, commenting and/or sharing! Any of these things help me and the comic a lot!

I don't think many people would be used to that kind of attention. Even if Mary were more outgoing it'd still be a lot to take in.
He's turning fifty... better not make that head patting mistake again! He can swear as much as he wants!!

Were that me and were it like that in any RL situation, I probably would've had a mild heart attack and considered handing in my notice. =D
And truly, I've met no 50-year old who appreciated my head pattings. Hard-earned lesson that...

Wooh double updates :D
Ah I find that angle/composition of Mary saying she's not used to that attention so compelling, I think it's the lighting too :). Seems as if she's having trouble connecting with them but she at least thinks they're all friendly.
I knew he was much older than he looked but 50? The chief I want your diet regime XD

That panel is probably my favourite on this page, even though I struggled more with the top-down one.
Mary's doing her best, but going from being used to more or less living in isolation to a rambunctious office environment is probably a bit like going from 0-100 for her.
And readers are too smart to think Morgan was just a "regular" kid. But I was hoping not everyone would figure out why he's almost 50 years old and looks the way he does. On Sunday you'll get the explanation though. ;)

Time to leave the office... and go clothes shopping?
(Mary desperately needs something without holes in it...)

This is the last scene where you’ll see Mary in tatters. But the clothes shopping will have to happen off-panel as we have other story beats to cover. :)

Hah, maybe a different kind of "condition". Explanation forthcoming on Sunday.
And Mary's adorable, isn't she? ;)
