  1. Photo 1 caption – Maybe if i just wave at her she’ll stop pretending to have horns.

    Photo 2 caption – “Jorg must be this much shorter than the road brothers.” Mark – “There you go, you’ve got it.”

    Photo 3 caption – grumbles “I’m just going to tear her face off and let her feel the pain of the briar bush.”

    Photo 4 caption – “Heres my best impersonation of Jorg finding the Colt.”

    Photo 5 caption – In response to is it hard to write such an asshole character like Jorg? “NAH, I would say Jorg is an extension of who I wish I was. Who doesnt want to rip a heart out from time to time?”

    Laura: “But what if Nona had flaw-HORNS?!”
    Mark: “…”

    #2
    Laura: “I mean she’s only like this tall, so having her “weapons” on top of her head would make a lot of sense”
    Mark: “I am not going to discuss this with you again!”

    #3
    Mark: “It’s claws! Like this!”
    Background guy *thinking bubble*: “I don’t know, maybe the horns could work..”
    T.O.: *thinking bubble*: “Here he goes again with the demonstrations..”

    #4
    Damien: “So what you are saying is that she is Wolverine?”
    Mark: “No. Just because she is ferocious, has superhuman reflexes and basically has retractable indestructible claws..”

    #5
    Mark: “Okay I guess she is Wolverine..”

  5. 1. Laura: You know, a bull. A huge animal with horns, like this.
    2. Mark: So what did you say, how big that bull was? Laura: About this tall.
    3. Mark: And did it have, like, claws? T.O. Munro: What the hell does he talk about? Bulls and claws? I might use that in my next book…
    4. Mark: See, this is how you should pose for a badass book cover, helding 2 weapons, crossing your arms before you. Damien: I should take notes of this…
    5. Mark: This is also a good pose, if you have a priest/someone praising a god. Pretend like you are helding two oranges. Or breasts. Damien: This guy is a genius.

  8. 1. “And then, I come at you, I charge, like this, going neeee! You see? That is what I do.”

    2. “Knock it off, Hughes. I’m on to you. If you think you can muscle in on my business you’re wrong. Dead wrong. Sleeping with this fishies wrong.”

    3. “Rawr! Enough! Sleeping palm tears off the face! Oh, hi T.O. Munro, how’s tricks?”

    4. “Yeah, that’s how we used to roll, back on the mean streats of Slough. If you didn’t make the right gang sign, like this, they’d slit your nose with a shoe horn. Try it. No, seriously. Make the gang sign. I’ve got a shoe horn in my pocket. I’m waiting.”

    5. “Hahaha, I love peace, you know? I love – like, happy happy! Not like I’d kill a guy for not smiling, right? Hahaha.”

  9. I did try and post this a second ago, but then crashed so unsure whether worked. If it did, sorry for posting twice:

    Photo 3: When T. O. and Laura agreed to a face swap photo, they hadn’t quite anticipated Mark’s unorthodox, violent, and, ultimately, fatal method of managing this when it turned out his phone lacked the requisite technology.
