A new chapter. New acts. New friends. New enemies.
Old friends, old rivalries, old pains, old fights. New adventures.
It turns out Hat Kid and Bow Kid aren't quite done collecting time pieces just yet...

It's them. The royal bois.
Here's some tips about how I draw them-
Snatcher: How do you draw him. He is literally a noodle, but it's so hard to draw him. His floof, his body, his arms, his face, everything about him is hard. I'd also like to note that the 3 meters height is for when he's fully stretched out. I had to draw him coiled up so he'd fit on the canvas.
Moonjumper: He's pretty fun to draw! Especially the little glitchy bits in the place of his "tail". I made sure to keep him pretty close to his canon design as well. And in the bottom right corner, you can see him wearing the crown like he did in that one or two chapters. Fun fact: He's the exact same size as Jaide!
The prince: Baby boy. Precious child. Soft bean. I've seen some artists take away the fluffiness of his hair. To that, I say "How dare you." His hair is the best thing to draw. I love drawing him with his cape and his tall boots- I love everything about him, darn it. And to the right is a small ref of what he looked like when he was a living puppet.
How fun.

About a minute of contemplating the minion's body later, Jaide appeared suddenly just outside of Snatcher's home.
Bow Kid perked up and slowly drew away from the prince. Jaide hadn't noticed them yet. She was talking to herself, reaching over with her left hand to pick at the bandages on her right arm. Bow caught a little of what she was saying. "...maybe there's something...a spell or...is it a curse...?"
"Hi, Jaide," Bow said, announcing her presence.
Jaide flinched a little and turned. When she saw Bow Kid she lightened up and stopped picking at her bandages. "Oh, hello, child," she said, smiling softly.
"Are you back from talking with Moonjumper?" Bow asked.
"Yes," Jaide answered, her green eyes lighting up. "Thank you for introducing him to me again after all this time. I never thought I'd see him again."
Bow Kid smiled. It made her happy to see that Jaide was happy for some reason. "So, what'd you talk about?" she asked curiously.
Jaide tilted her head thoughtfully. "Not much," she admitted. "We caught up after about four and a half centuries." Her face fell. "Poor Moon has been stuck in the Horizon for all that time." A darker sadness entered her eyes. "He told me that he disappeared the day after he met me. And I never really noticed or thought about it...I thought he was just avoiding me. I thought he hated me."
She reached over to start picking at her bandages again, but she stopped herself. Jaide forced a smile. "But that's not true," she said, her voice lightening a bit. "Moon doesn't hate me. He was happy to see me. And I'm going to help him leave the Horizon!"
