Part 2/2
All written and drawn by me!

Apprentice: "Wow. That's a real image change."
Helter: "Omigod! You are SO adorable!"
Taera: "Yay."
Connor: "You look very dignified in that!"
Taera: (while blushing) "Umm... thanks."
Helter: "Apprentice! You too!"
Apprentice: "Me? Even though I'm just a Narrator?"
Helter: "Especially so!"

Taera: "A superhero costume? Really?"
Helter: "Absolutely! She's a Narrator! She goes around like a ninja, telling characters' stories and following them to whatever end -- sounds like a superhero to me!"
Apprentice: "How about you, Helter Skelter?"
Helter: "Me?"
Taera: "Yeah, cupcake. You have to wear something even more ridiculous!"
Helter: "Oh, if you insist~~♡"

Helter is wearing a white ballet tutu with a golden necklace and pink toeshoes.
Helter: "I feel pretty 🎵 Oh so pretty 🎵"
Taera looks irked.
Taera: "I take it back. Change into your regular clothes again, please."
Apprentice: "Hahaha! I think it matches them perfectly!"
Helter looks proud and sparkly.
Helter: "Just as planned."

Helter is ballet posing while Connor is laughing merrily and Taera is facepalming, and Apprentice is looking on from the foreground.
Apprentice: (as narration) I guess, even when we have a lot to worry about, it's nice to have a break from all that sometimes.
Helter pops in from the side.
Helter: "Sometimes? How about all the time?"
Apprentice: (sweatdrop) "Hey, I was just narrating!"

LRP was the fully voiced and soundtrack included video version of this comic! It's a non-canonical side story of some main characters of my WIP original story "The Narrator's Apprentice". All drawn and written by me. Part 1/2

Title: The Narrator's Apprentice: We Need a Break

Apprentice sits talking to three other people. "Things aren't looking too good right now, are they?"

Apprentice: "Connor, your world is ending, and no one knows what to do about it. And Taera, your world might as well have ended, with the awful dystopian society you live in. But I think I'm messing up everything even more with my narrating!"
Helter: "You know what we all need, Apprentice?"
Apprentice: "What, Helter Skelter?"

Helter: "A MAKEOVER PARTY!"
All stare at Helter, who is smiling with sparkles.
Helter: I'm serious. Up you get, Princey-poo. You're first!"
Connor: "Wh-wha...?"
Text: -TEN MINUTES LATER-

Connor stands in an elegant green jacket and pants.
Taera: "Hey, not bad. I could actually take you seriously in that."
Connor: "Thank you, I suppose..."
Apprentice: "No, really, you look good!"
Connor: "I appreciate your compliment.
Helter grabs Taera's arm.
Helter: "You're next, tough girl."
Taera: "WHAT?! No way, you are not gonna get me dolled up like some--"
