That mugshot looks like he's trying to pass a brick

Rule34Rocks

God binge-watching the Pain Arc of Naruto with no filler was the exact right thing to do but bloody hell if Kishimoto didn't f[BLEEP]k with all my emotions. From the lowest of lows to the highest of highs.

SpeedRcr_X

I guess it was probably less painful without the filler

Rule34Rocks

I see what you did there. It really felt like this arc was meant to conclude the story

SpeedRcr_X

Nah. You're forgetting something

Rule34Rocks

Hmm?

SpeedRcr_X

SASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Rule34Rocks

I can never forget Sasuke <_<;

Reverend_H

Yo what does he have that I don't yo

Rule34Rocks

a D[BLEEP]k?

SpeedRcr_X

Reverend_H

Yo I got a d[BLEEP]k yo

Rule34Rocks

No you are a d[BLEEP]k there's a difference

So it's finally here, Episode 13 of Suburban Senshi: A Tale of Three Cities! - And if you want to read the whole thing in one shot, the full story as a novella is here.

Rule34Rocks

132 pages

Dr_Xadium

Some of that is just pictures

Mdm_Maestro

Useless pictures, because again I'm not in them

Reverend_H

That makes them 100% better yo

Mdm_Maestro

Tch

SpeedRcr_X

So my blog that I started in 2002 is old enough to drink now

SpeedRcr_X

We can has drink together

setsy_meioh

I drink every day

Gol_D_Lux

You drink and snort dust every day :P

setsy_meioh

WHEN YOU GET TO BE AS SUPER ANCIENT AS ME, YOU'LL UNDERSTAND, GIRL

setsy_meioh

_YOU_ HAVEN'T BEEN ROBBED OF YOUR BIRTHRIGHT

SpeedRcr_X

So wait

SpeedRcr_X

There's something I don't understand from the story that wasn't wrapped up at all

SpeedRcr_X

Why did the Mamoru clone have my face

setsy_meioh

Because I mixed in other people's DNA to make him less useless

Mdm_Maestro

So you mixed in Haruka's DNA into the clone... to make it less useless.

SpeedRcr_X

...hey

setsy_meioh

You're right, I see the flaw in my thinking now.

SpeedRcr_X

HEY!

Dr_Xadium

Thanks for supporting Suburban Senshi for the past 21 years! We're not dead yet, and there's more to come!

C'est_La_V

We really should do a retrospective special!!

Rule34Rocks

That would require Work which X is allergic to. It took him over a year to write this thing, which was supposed to be the 20th anniversary special.

Dr_Xadium

That's because the original plot idea was unworkable. Too many characters to juggle, too many fights-for-the-sake-of-fights and other obligations took away my time. I had to gut almost everything and start over twice.

SpeedRcr_X

I don't get it. If you're just chronicling the s[BLEEP]t we just went though why not just write it down correctly from the beginning? What's the need to redraft true life events?

Dr_Xadium

Because timelines are always shifting. What's a true life event yesterday for me is not necessarily a true life event tomorrow.

SpeedRcr_X

So wait

SpeedRcr_X

Are you saying our histories are not the same?

Dr_Xadium

From your perspective they're the same. Because you've always lived them.

Dr_Xadium

Unless you perceive a change, like when the timeline split from 1337-B to 1337-A

Dr_Xadium

But let me ask you
