The fifth page of Afterhour Adjustments. Rascal, floating in the air, holds pebble by her wrists, its face uncomfortably close to pebble's. rasccal looks excited while pebble looks worried. "oh, that?" rascal asks. rascal pushes its snout up against pebble's, the lighting gets really dramatic, rascal's grin growing wider and pebble's expression more worried as rascal says "it's about to be the least of your worries~". rascal places its hands over pebble's, concealing them, then pulls them away with the force of its whole body, pushing pebble away in the process. pebble looks shocked as rascal's hands pull away, revealing pebble's hands have been turned into hooves. pebble's showing standing, looking really concerned as it looks at its hand hooves, they're still dripping a little from being transformed. rascal, floating upside down, looking really proud of itself again, goes "there! much better~ wouldn't you agree? much better suited for a clumsy thing like you~". rascal, popping out of frame, appears to have gotten an idea. "oh! before i forget..." it speaks to pebble as it floats down, placing its hands on the sides of pebble's pants, grabbing onto them, looking all teasy. pebble's hooves are seen above it, lifted out of the way.

a drawing of pebble, waist up, looking at the viewer longingly. she's standing still against a backdrop of a blue sky with fluffy clouds. both of her eyes are visible, her glasses overlaid over her snout in a way that doesn't make sense - a deviation from my usual style. she's not wearing any clothes. the drawing has a crt-like filter applied over it

The fourth page of Afterhour Adjustments. pebble is lifted off the ground with strange blue magic, appearing worried. laid back rascal casually floats in front of her, not appearing worried whatsoever. "please let me go?? I don't know what this is about but I really have to go now!" (she continues rambling). Rascal responds with "heh~ you talk too much!" placing both its hands on the front of pebble's snout, catching her off guard, it conitinues "no more of that~ ever... AGAIN!" as it says the last bit it pulls back, seemingly turning pebble's snout into goop, parts of it flying off of pebble's face, she appears pretty shocked by it. the blue magic dissipates and she's dropped to the ground. she appears panicked as she grabs onto her snout, feeling it, noticing that her mouth is gone! still panicked, she points to her snout, waving her other hand around, looking at rascal, thinking "What did you do to me?!?!"

The third page of Afterhour Adjustments. pebble, looking away from the strange critter, seeming worried, responds to it: "I'm sorry I really need to get-". It's interrupted by the critter, who responds with "shh~", placing one hand on pebble's hair, ruffling it, the other placing a finger on the front of its snout, shushing it. The critter looks mischievous, its tail going past the border of the page. It shrugs, looking care free, responding with "what's the rush? you are off tomorrow~". AS it says this it flies behind pebble, placing an arm over one of its shoulder, looking at its face over the other. Pebble's looking down at the ground, worried. "I'm not interested sorr-" pebble responds as it starts walking away quickly, before its stopped by the strange critter, snapping its fingers, floating above pebble. Strange blue aura appears around pebble, stopping it in place. pebble looks terrified as the critter responds with "how rude~"

The second page of Afterhour Adjustments. pebble continues down the dark city street. A shadowy figure can be seen running past her in the foreground. pebble's ears perk up, and she looks behind herself confused. she looks ahead, really worried, thinking to herself "I should really get go-". "hey~" - She's cut off by a strange blue critter appearing in front of her. The critter is lanky and cartoon-ish looking, with a large grin on its face, a :3 face on a tag style earring on one of its long upward-pointing ears, a solid metal collar on its neck with a chain attached to it, and 6 belly nipples. It's staring right at pebble, looking very interested. On the next panel, it's floating up in a relaxed pose, its arms behind its head, its expression unbothered, carefree. its tail is seen behind it, its end split in two. Its floating outside of the actual panel, not obeying by its rules. "all alone on a friday night?" it says, each word written in a different font, its text not constrained by speech bubbles like pebble's. pebble looks shocked as it appears to float above it, looking down at her, reaching out with its hand, which has a shackle on it with a chain attached to it. "seriously tho, you shouldn't be out here all alone! it gets scaaaary at night~", it tells her.

The first page of Afterhour Adjustments. Pebble is seen walking down a dark city street, only lit by streetlamps. It appears to be a sort of industrial area. A closeup of pebble, then her looking at the city in the distance, with the following narration: "I hated having to work so late.. At least the city was peaceful at night.. It felt peaceful, anyway.". Pebble looking behind her at the dimly lit street, appearing worried, now in a more residential area. Then another shot of her walking down the same street, this time from farther out with her viewed from the back, walking away from the camera. Narration: "I heard some scary things about what goes on out here at night.. but I figured most of that had to be made up. I didn't have much farther to go

transcendence

a photo of two pages from pebble's tiny sketchbook. on the first one spearmaster from rain world is running away from a lizard, throwing one of its spears behind itself towards it. it looks angry. the background suggests that they're in underhang. on the second page spearmaster can be seen leaning against a locked karma gate, looking very annoyed. it doesn't have enough karma to go through. the karma gate is implied to be the one from underhang into five pebbles.

along the tracks
