New Pages 17 & 18! Alan and Nathan have made a new friend…
Alexander Hamilton grew up on the Island of St. Croix, one of the modern day U.S. Virgin Islands. As a matter of fact, Mike and I honeymooned down there! And, speaking of which, our seventh wedding anniversary is on Monday!
I don’t think I look old enough to have been married seven years, because this week… I got braces! Getting used to them has not been fun. My mouth still won’t close, and I keep hitting my teeth on the brackets, which causes shooting pain. I had a really hard time working this week, I’ve been in a lot of pain. So… at this point I cannot promise that there will be an update next week. I am behind, and I don’t feel right giving Julie an impossible deadline.
So maybe I’ll see you next Friday, maybe it will be in two Fridays. Thanks in advance!
VOTE this week to see seven year old pictures from our Honeymoon! See ruins from the time Hamilton lived there, and see my natural hair color! XP
Ok, theory of the day. Uncle Herc is behind it all. He is an actual timetraveler/ fary godperson who knows that Alan and Bea have to be together so he’s making all of this happen. He’s even supplying the dress. hahahaha :D
I’ve already been invited to a BBQ in heaven, but I might have to set aside a few hours of eternity too see the Dreamer Movie in Heaven premier.

First off Happy Anniversary! And I swear you don’t look old enough to be married period. :D
Hah, Alan and Hamilton little spat. I love jealous Alan. I wish I subscribed to your fanflow so I could see the cut script.
Alan needs to get that cough fixed. It’s very worrisome! D: I’m sure us Team Alan fangirls can get a collection up to send him to a hospital. :D
The pages look awesome as always. <33
So, uncle Herc is a timelord? :D
Great artwork (as usual), and I love the conversation between Alan, Hamilton and Nathan – nearly as much as I love Bea’s non-conversation… her facial expressions are brilliant (again).
And is it just me, or is Hamilton awfully dressed up for a war? I mean, he’s all ruffles and lace =) Oh, dear. I like him already. (Don’t worry Nathan, you’ll always be my favourite!)
Ah, Hamilton… Being a Jeffersonian libertarian, that man is my eternal foe. Didn’t know he was a ladies’ man, though. Learn something new everyday. Knew there was a reason I was reading this besides the story :P
Happy anniversary, and I’m sorry about the braces. I hope you don’t need them for too long.
And…
Hercules Mulligan… Hm. Well, I certainly look forward to meeting him, in the past, whatnot, as well as those who frequented his shop, whatnot. COUGH.
…
COUGH.
Whatnot.
I love how researchable all this is. Seriously, Lora, how many books/websites did you have to read to figure out how to maneuver through the story? I know (or assume) you’re always researching new stuff, but so far, you’ve been nigh dead-on accurate, only changing small things to move the story along. I’m always impressed when you give us tidbits that seem small, but are completely accurate, like in this last bit with Hamilton and Mulligan.
I <3 historical accuracy.
PS
Hamilton doesn’t have a chance with Beatrice. I hope. Huzzah.
Braces! I had them when I was 14. They’re really not fun in the beginning, but you’ll get used to them. Btw–sorry I haven’t been reading your comic lately, I’ve been so busy with unexpecting things coming up left right and center. FYI–I’m engaged for the 2nd time and pregnant!! Anyways, Congrats on your 7th wedding anniversary!
TTFN–Donna
Have you tried putting wax over the brackets? It helps a lot. Love your webcomic!
I love online shopping so much, thanks for your post :)
