Better get y’all some butter, ’cause y’all are on a ROLL.
Pfft, in all seriousness, I love how you guys are giving us insights from Meela’s perspective via her journal. The flashbacks are fun, and I am totally enjoying seeing Feral & Holland mentoring the young pup.
Bwhaha Okay serious speaking moments.
Meela: *Yes learning how to make fire!*
*Is taught, now must use*
Alright here we- BWHA! NO ONE SAID THAT FIRE HURT THIS MUCH! GET IT OF GET IT OFF GET IT OFF *running in circles*
Holland: Umm. *Thinks of how angry Feral may get* I saw nothing.
LOLOLOLOLOL
So in love with this =v= I just love Holland’s smirk, and this is totally irrelevant, but every time I read Holland’s lines, I here Vic Mignogna’s voice XD
Try finding clips of the English dub of Ouran High School Host club (the voice of Tamaki) or Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles (the voice of Fai). He does much softer voices for those roles. Actually…Holland reminds me SO much of Fai…
Shinjite Florana
that’s also been observed by a group of fans earlier.
I LOVE Strays! I recommend it to all my friends and feature it in my other website, http://www.frogzwithsox.webs.com! Does anyone else wish it cud be updated more often? I know, it’s one of those impossible wishes thanks to side jobs and other work, like my wish to fly…XP LOL
This doesn’t really have to do with this page in particular, but I noticed that the thinkness of the line art has changed since the beginning. I was just wondering if there was any particular reason why you guys changed it?
Like most comics, style tends to change from the beginning. We noticed the style of drawing has changed since the beginning too, but we try to keep it as close as possible.
Ha… If anyone has noticed. Holland has already worn this outfit before earlier in the comic. xD The only difference is the gloves. But yea, I just thought that was interesting.
I love your artwork! You guys are one of my fave online comics!
I love the fact that she is now learning how to handle magic I was wondering when she would. Though I thought you would go into how she learned how to shift more… But I love her wolf form it’s so energetic and spunky! <33
Wait a sec… so
Aang mastered waterbending fairly quickly
Meela too….
Aang had huge troubles with Firebending and controling it
Meela too…
*le gasp* MEELA IS THE AANG OF STRAYS!
Haven’t checked this for about a month, i’m loving what’s going on. The plot is really beginning to pick the speed now, I can’t wait to see where you guys go with this :D
*My interpretation of the last 3 panels*
Panel1-Meela: Yay! Me made fire!!
Panel2-Meela:!!!!!
Panel3-Holland:OMIGOSH MEELA
Panel3-Meela:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
In my comment, when I said Panel1, 2, and 3, I meant the last three panels, with the first of the last three being Panel1. Sorry for any confusion that occured while reading my comment.
Okay, so I love that Meela is learning so many badass skills, but even more than that I love how big brotherly Holland and Feral have become towards her. It’s such a touching thing to witness, and I believe they’re all growing emotionally as a result.
On a side note: I’m just so impressed by how well you draw hands and body language at different angles. If you don’t mind my asking: Did/are you taking art classes to get to the level you’re at now, or was this achieved through a different method?
Hmmm just catching up on this. If you could manage to shrink the shield down and light a fire inside of it you could probably make a pretty good bomb. Actually just being able to form a shield around someone else would be useful… interesting abilities.

Heyoceama
Stop, drop, and roll!!!!!!
Audiums
Lol, should have taught her to wield water first.
Algy
Lupians are natural fire (benders lol) wielders. Water is actually hard for them to master, lol.
arthour

Looking forward to next week!
Sofy
LOL Meela caught herself on fire XD
Best part so far LOL
TsumeWolfClaws
quick Meela stop drop and roll girl!!! haha. great page :)
ZeroRaptor
No, Meela! You’re doin’ it wrong! You’re supposed to learn EARTHBENDING after you master waterbending, not firebending!
Blue-Starr
Lol! Meela is the avatar! XD
Amari
At least Katara’s not stupidly standing in the way.
Hatter.
Bwhaha Okay serious speaking moments.
Meela: *Yes learning how to make fire!*

Arinna
I love the last panel XD
DeanCota
I’m sorry, just the wordless last panel is hilarious. Also, she has some cute little shorts. :3 Didn’t know they made denim in her world.
Good to see her all healthy and good too. After that poison, that was something else. >_<
xPixel
x3 Meela has the cutest expressions. <3
Angeliclily
XDD Poor puppy <33
Zera
Avatar, the next geneartion comes! xD
Great page girls, really love Meela fire bending xD
Shellysangel
wow! She is sure learning a lot :)
Blue-Starr
Lol poor Meela XD Holland, don’t just stand there! Feral, get back here and either help Meela or punish Holland! XD ROFL!
Cadwalader
I’m just curious, how many races are in this world? And what are their relations with elements?
Swiftsnowpack
GAH!!! MEELA ON FIRE!!! HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HOLLAND DO SOMETHING!!!! HAHAHHAHA!
Wolfdog127
He probably should have taught her the ancient art of stop drop and roll first XD
Sangrewolf456
Dude… That made my day. xDDD
thelightedDarkness
Oh god yes XD
Gigi
Okay, I take it back, Holland isn’t COMPLETELY useless.
S. Aquila
The pinecones are what made me giggle. “Doingk!” is the sound they make in my head when they bounce off the shield
THEmsknowitall
Yeppers.
Irishxlily
If you can defend yourself from deadly pine cones… NOTHING SHALL PASS -hits staff to ground-
(fluffy owl pine cones FTW)
TsumeWolfClaws
yes fluffy owl pine cones are always a win :)
thelightedDarkness
Lol, Meela is the Avatar XD
Pffhahhahahahahahaaahahaha
That last panel XD
—
She looks sortof like Aang in second to last panel C:
Crimson
Funny, I thought it was more of a Zuko face!
RainbowSocks
Same here, she looks more like Zuko
DragonOfAwesome
She does look like Zuko kind of! Weird but totally awesome :D
thelightedDarkness
Yes, i couldnt decide on Zuko or Aang. XD
Amber
Coooool!!!
LeeDenn
ahhhh! Meela is adorable!
LicianDragon
Maybe fire safety lessons should have been the first thing Holland taught her?
Blueberry
Hollaaaaaaaaaaand! I see your belly buttoooooooon! Meela is adorable, and so is Holland…CUTIENESS EVERYWHERE!!
JaakunaOkamiNo
LOL Meela xD Poor thing got caught on fire by her own flame !!! XD
Wolfeth
pahahahaha meela xD Also, Holland’s smirk third panel :P
songstress
That shield will certainly come in handy. But yes, fire safety should always come before teaching fire. STOP DROP AND ROLL!
Or better yet, maybe Holland could use some water magic if he knows any
BlueGiGi
So in love with this =v= I just love Holland’s smirk, and this is totally irrelevant, but every time I read Holland’s lines, I here Vic Mignogna’s voice XD
AngelMatvey
Oh my gods I’m not the only one?! I totally hear Vic Mignogna as Holland.
Jenna
Now that you mention it, yeah, definitely going to be hearing Vic Mignogna every time now!
Algy
Hahaha, I went and watched a video of him. I can maybe see it if he toned down the roughness of his voice. lol
Kayla
Try finding clips of the English dub of Ouran High School Host club (the voice of Tamaki) or Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles (the voice of Fai). He does much softer voices for those roles. Actually…Holland reminds me SO much of Fai…
Shinjite Florana
that’s also been observed by a group of fans earlier.
and also I SO hear Vic. ^-^
leopardshadow1234

Bluerosebud
The expression on her face in panel six is just adorable/hilarious!
KC
I love his gloves. <3
RainbowSocks
Meela taking the “hot-headed” personality alittle too literally.
kiwi
There go her eyebrows.
Alvara101
Meela: Yes I MADE FIRE!
*BAM!*
Meela: AHH!!! FIRE!!
Holland: Oh crap…. D:
Loopy lass

Desmond the Patient
She’s learning to become a great heroine :3 I like her more!!
Ratryoshka
OH GOD HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAH
seems like we need Neil patrick Harris to assist Holland on training Meela.
NyraWolf
Hahaha, genius ^^
Sangrewolf101
Ha… If anyone has noticed. Holland has already worn this outfit before earlier in the comic. xD The only difference is the gloves. But yea, I just thought that was interesting.

Liv
I love all of the details, especially how you’re keeping track of their clothes. And 10 points for character developement, wow!
DragonOfAwesome
Wait a sec… so
Aang mastered waterbending fairly quickly
Meela too….
Aang had huge troubles with Firebending and controling it
Meela too…
*le gasp* MEELA IS THE AANG OF STRAYS!
Cliodna
Does that mean Feral is Toph? :O
TsumeWolfClaws
oh my god Yes!
Midwinterain
Definitely, especially the way he’s training her to fight. Need I bring up the rolling a giant boulder down the hill towards Aang incident? :P
thelightedDarkness
Oh my god yes XD
DawnStar
I thought Feral was more of a Zuko, what with his angsty-ness, weird eye scar, and messed up past. Plus he’s a softy on the inside. ;) XD
Midwinterain
Haven’t checked this for about a month, i’m loving what’s going on. The plot is really beginning to pick the speed now, I can’t wait to see where you guys go with this :D
VickyLynn
Lol, just realized this outfit is the same one Holland first met Meela in ^,^
DaErmine
Oh nose! Pore puppy go boom

blackcats
Vickylynn- I think that the art style changed for the better! Go, Strays!
Alena
When learning to control fire, say good-bye to thine eyebrows…
Ashen
Okay, so I love that Meela is learning so many badass skills, but even more than that I love how big brotherly Holland and Feral have become towards her. It’s such a touching thing to witness, and I believe they’re all growing emotionally as a result.
On a side note: I’m just so impressed by how well you draw hands and body language at different angles. If you don’t mind my asking: Did/are you taking art classes to get to the level you’re at now, or was this achieved through a different method?
thelightedDarkness
I just noticed this MEELAS BRACELETT IS ABOUT TO BE LIT ON FIRE!!!
hopee its fireproof
Tarcival
this is why fire magic should always be practiced near rivers
TeamLinny
Did anyone else see this page and think “OMG Meela’s outfit is SO cute!” No? No one? Ok….*slowly backs away*
Shellysangel
hahaha poor meela! But she has improved so much! Good for her!
Time
TOTALLY FAVED THIS PAGE! Wait… there’s no favorite button here? Awwww… GO FLAMING MEELA! XDDD
Savannah
Again, I am floored by your depiction of the character’s facial expressions.
Daka
Hmmm just catching up on this. If you could manage to shrink the shield down and light a fire inside of it you could probably make a pretty good bomb. Actually just being able to form a shield around someone else would be useful… interesting abilities.
Guesticus
Nah, try forming it in someone
pink4never
Katniss would be impressed!! >U<
WolfieIsCrayCray
Holland should be careful with those pinecones. She could pull down that shield and he’d accidentally hit her with a pinecone.
Guesticus
Panel 6!!! ‘Nuf said!
Tuomi
BWAH HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! MEELAMEELAMEELA I NEED YOU TO BE REAL!
Wolfyluvstapies
Poor Mela xD
