EA-LEC: The Growing Briar - 1

Alternate title: Because I wanted a cooler title than "Thorn at the Side"

Alternate title 2: The Day Dorian Gray lost his shit

Finally, after a whole month of drawing the linearts, I'm ready to grayscale and post this thing! Ok, so it won't be done by April 2016, but I swear I have a valid excuse - I got surprise-attacked by a cold bug. Buh.

This comic picks up after Absolute-Sero's Drinks with the Boss. But while it starts with her Lilac Ambrose, the story moves to focus on Dorian Gray and the Family.

It starts off on a grim note for Dorian Gray as he finds one of his own was killed. He is not happy with this in the least bit.

The highly suspected killer, Mr Parsons, further drives the knife deep into Dorian's figurative wound by asking him out for tea. It's obviously a trap, and Dorian Gray insists on going, not caring for his own safety (for obvious reasons).

Interestingly enough, there doesn't seem to be any danger elements around the teahouse. Maybe there wasn't anything to be worried about after all?

Mr. Parsons clearly seems to think that way. Lookit that face, he's so happy to see his dearest friend Dorian Gray~~ He's so sincere he might as well be puking rainbows now.

Stay tuned for Part 2 in the next few days!

Lilac Ambrose and minor henchmen (stolen from her entry here: absolute-sero.deviantart.com/a… )belongs to Absolute-Sero
All other characters belong to me, even that sickeningly polite Mr. Parsons.
