This is the start of an actual story.
Yeah, I wanted to make just a little thing where the joke was "mother fuckin' snakes" but then decided to take it to the next level. This will begin an actual story arc in the #Future Webcomic, a path I never thought I would trod upon.
But, it happened. I don't know how this will turn out. I've made plot-ish things in comics before, but they were linear as fuck and had no depth to them. I'll try to make this work as best as I can.
Overall, I like this comic, but I am thoroughly disappointed with how I drew Eric in the last panel. He is not nearly frightened enough.
