Not sure if this has been asked already, but what is Ivy majoring in? Whatever it is, she certainly doesn't seem to be very... concerned about it.

Sorry for taking so long in getting back to some of your questions. I've been out of town on a short trip.



The band members have names as most of them actually appear in the comic, but feel free to dole out names if you want.



Originally the Dixie Drifters Jazzing Orchestra (or ‘jazz band’ once the terminology had become obsolete as jazz matured) before they fell into place as the Lackadaisy’s regular band and ceased to drift. =P



The U.S.



Certainly – I’d be honored to see it put to such use. =)



He’s not an orphan, but because of his particular family circumstances, he spent a lot of his childhood in Nina’s care. You’ll learn more about his background in the comic.



Style choice mostly. I felt their eyes looked a little too human and not catty enough with white scleras, but too cat-like for the range of facial expression I wanted with irises that comprised most of the visible portion of the eye. I ended up compromising by tinting the sclera.





Yes, I like the Beatles – they’ve been the mainstay among my musical preferences since I can remember.
As for what else I like…I hardly know where to start. I listen to a lot of classic rock from the 60’s and 70’s – Simon and Garfunkel, Eric Clapton, The Kinks, Cat Stevens, The Rolling Stones, and Queen among others.
I like a lot of things that would fall into the jazz, swing, ragtime, rockabilly, punk and folk categories (or combinations thereof) too – the Squirrel Nut Zippers (who did a lot of material reminiscent of hot jazz - my favorite listening material for comic drawing), The Brian Setzer Orchestra, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, Cab Calloway, Django Reinhardt, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Scott Joplin, a little bit of Miles Davis, Tom Waits, Flogging Molly, Gogol Bordello…and many others. =P



Probably, yes – I’ll likely include a human drawing of him and Asa both in a previews collection at some point.



Well, more like they severed contact with him.



Aside from cats, they keep the usual array of pets.
parakeets, hamsters, garden gnomes, fishsticks…



Liberal arts/undecided. She's needs to get her requisite studies in dancing, socializing and loafing around out of the way before declaring a major.

Fishsticks??

WOOOOOOOOOO.

You have just made my day, THANK YOU. Now so save up the money. (which'll take FOREVER it my current rate XD)

Thank you for answering my question. And beware "Revolution 9" by the Beatles. I know people who went temporarily insane on that. Others stopped halfway through out of the torture the felt like they were receiving.

I read somewhere in the gallery, I think, that Freckle was based on a cat that you really had or something. ^^; Was that cat like...sweet one minute and then an arm-shredding maniac the next?

Yes, in fact.
I adopted Calvin as a kitten when I first moved to Missouri and really didn't know anyone in the area. He's extremely affectionate, purrs like an engine, brings me his favorite toy when he wants to play, and follows me about like a lap dog. I can't even take a bath without him insisting he lounge on the narrow, slippery rim of the tub (which has resulted in an unhappily damp cat on more than one occasion).

Contrarily, I don't think I've had a single family member or friend to the house who hasn't at one time been accosted by my unstable, orange housemate. For whatever reason, the sound of laughter sets him off. Watching funny movies or even just sitting around, chatting and laughing are dangeous sports in this household - the sudden dilation of Calvin's pupils is a sure indicator that carnage is about to ensue.
He's mastered the arm-gripping-kicking-biting multi-assault. He knows how to hold a grudge long enough to wait until unsuspecting victims are perfectly vulnerable on the stairs, at which point he goes for the ankles. Then there's his famous ballistic face attack, which would - were it not for the resulting shock and bloodshed - be a rather impressive acrobatic feat involving the living room furniture and a projectile cat.

So, yeah. He's a real sweetheart...when he's not flying into an uncontrolled rage.

Oh man, that is priceless. I was just about to say that Calvin reminds me of my cat Dinah, who I got when I was four and stuck around until I was about eleven. xD She was very much a split-personality feline.

Thanks for answering!

Hmmm....will their be a gambler character?
