Statue Rentals #9: Restoration Surprise

Statue Rentals #9: Restoration Surprise
DESCRIPTION

When I first put the dialogue on this comic (and the next one), Stacy's dialogue bubbles were white. I considered making her bubbles slowly become the hot pink they are now. I gave up on the idea because I didn't think it would be necessary.

I realized at this point Stacy is a far more top heavy that I realized before. Putting her in clothes made this painfully obvious. SR#11 and SR#12 still have dialog about her size. The images here are the reduced size images. I ended up fixing SR#05 through SR#19 because they were just too big.

The Little Witch's Wilson family portrait is sideways on the table in the top right panel. Yet another crossover with another story.

There's a bonus pic down below the transcript.

Transcript

Panel 1 – Statue is hidden behind blue screen, Meredith is sitting nearby

Meredith (speaking to statue): I hope you enjoyed the experience. It’s been almost 18 months since you were human.

Meredith (continued): You’ve been well- compensated financially. I’ve explained what caused the delays to you before but had no way to ask how you felt. I hope it was okay.

FX: <snap>

Panel 2 – Magic!

Panel 3

Meredith: There’s some clothes for you on the stool.

Stacy: This is a dress.

Meredith: It’s a jumper. It was all I had. Think of it as a really long shirt.

Stacy: This is not my body. Why do I look like the statue did?

Panel 4 – Puts on shirt

Meredith: The statue was an accurate depiction of you.

Stacy: I'm not a woman.

Meredith: That block of stone I carved definitely held a woman. I just removed all the bits that weren’t you.

Stacy: Are you kidding?

Panel 5 – Puts on pants

Meredith: Am I? Try it out. I can’t change you into a man without the whole block and carving montage. And if you pay for me to do that, you’ll have made no money on this gig.

Stacy: You want to charge me because it’s in the waiver I signed.

Meredith: I don’t want to charge you. There are issues with changing someone to stone and back too frequently. Being a woman for little while won’t be as bad as you think. If you come back here in a few weeks and want me to fix it, I promise I will for free, if I can.

Panel 6 – Steps out

Stacy: Fine.

Meredith: Watch your step getting off the plinth.

Stacy: This outfit is very short.

Meredith: You’ll get used to it.

Meredith: God, how you are so gorgeous? Let me introduce you to Brian. He's dying to meet you.

Stacy: Brian Tellani? I've seen him a lot lately.
