Absolutely. They're still quite young indeed and have a lot of learning to do, all of the main characters do. I think people forget how young they are and how limited their experiences are. I can't wait to see the different roles they all fall into, I already love Kierr's development into a great strong character, and Ronja as well, and can't wait to see something for Rhov and Jahla too.

It's crazy how this page has gotten people going XD

Honestly, I saw the Ferah, Kargo, Roamer trio as a family too; I had hoped it would’ve been a big brother/big sister relationship with them and Roamer, especially since Kargo had lost Ralek in such a tragic way — I had hoped that Roamer could’ve been that brother that Kargo lost. Instead, they became lovers, which, okay, wasn’t my thing, but it seemed to work alright for the story, so whatever. As it went on, though, this “family trio” dynamic you speak of, regarding Kargo, Ferah, and Roamer slowly disappeared... suddenly it was mostly about Kargo and Roamer, as a couple, with Ferah barely even referenced, aside from when Kargo thought she was dead, and blamed Roamer for it... THAT, to me, was a perfect example of how much Ferah really meant to Kargo, and how close they really were; Roamer was his new lover, and yet, he would still put Ferah above him. As well he should, in my opinion; Kargo risked his life for Ferah, they grew up together, they were each other’s only comfort in a world of cruelty and oppression, it made sense that they were so close. But, once it was discovered that Ferah was still alive, they reunited, and Kargo and Roamer became an official couple... it was almost like everything changed. The focus was on Kargo and Roamer, together as a couple, and not Roamer, Kargo, and Ferah, as a trio. No more playful moments with all three of them, the focus was almost entirely on Kargo and Roamer, with Ferah pretty much being portrayed as “the third wheel”. Honestly, at the time, I thought the reasoning for Rogio being kept in the story, and joining up with Roamer, Kargo, and Ferah, was to rectify that; I thought that he and Ferah would turn to each other, even as only friends, and not anything more, while Roamer and Kargo were off doing their own thing... but it didn’t turn out that way. Instead, both Ferah and Rogio were, more or less, “pushed to the side”, so to speak, while Kargo and Roamer remained the spotlight couple. For me, it was getting old, but even so, I could kinda understand it... new couple, first romance, both were in that “honeymoon phase”. But when Roamer started forgetting about his own family in favor of Kargo... THAT I didn’t agree with. Especially since Kargo never even encouraged Roamer to keep in contact with them, and instead seemed more like he’d rather be forget about them, completely, in favor of him and Ferah as his new family. Honestly, I was against Roamer so easily leaving the Asmundr pack, in the beginning, to join Kargo and Ferah who he JUST met, but at least then there seemed to be some logical reasoning for it; he wanted to learn the land better, and be able to pass that information his family in order to help them survive. He never meant to abandon them completely, either, and when he learned that Ronja left, he meant to search for her in order to make sure she was safe... it was clear he still cared about her, then, but as time went on and he and Kargo got closer... it was like he lost all sight of everything but, well... Kargo. Which, again, new couple, “honeymoon phase”, blah, blah, blah... kinda understandable, even if it didn’t completely excuse it. Now, when it comes to Roamer with Rogio, even if I do, personally, love them as a couple, as I really do think they’re good for each other, I will admit that this couple has their own flaws, which have been pointed out by others. BUT, at least Rogio actually encourages Roamer to be there for his family, and to not forget about them; he understands they are important to him too, where-as Kargo... always struck me as wanting to be the ONLY family for Roamer; him and Ferah, while everyone else, including Ronja, should just not be important to him, anymore, and what he had to say about Ronja being in the Meteor Tribe only proved this further, in my opinion. At least while Roamer is with Rogio, even if the main focus seems to be on them as a couple, NOW, I don’t expect this to continue. I think (hope) we will get plenty of bonding moments with all three of them: Roamer, Ronja, and Rogio, and that they can be the close-knit trio that Roamer, Kargo, and Ferah were, in the beginning... unlike Kargo x Roamer, which seemed to be mostly about them, and ONLY them, once they officially became a couple. Now, I could be wrong, but I don’t think this will be the case with Rogio x Roamer... mostly because, from Roamer’s talk that he had with Rogio, I think he may actually realize that he lost sight of everyone and everything but Kargo, when he was with him... and I don’t think he’ll allow himself to do that again, in this new relationship with Rogio, especially after finally reuniting with Ronja, and realizing just how much he actually missed her, even if he didn’t show it, at the time. They are also all part of a tribe now, with plenty of others to interact with and bond with; for these reasons, I have confidence that it won’t ALWAYS be about Rogio x Roamer, when it comes to the Meteor Tribe arc, but we’ll just have to wait and see. As for your fear of Kique killing Kargo and Ferah off, I just don’t see that happening, as both of them still have a lot of potential to grow as characters, in Fjordor’s Midnightgarde Tribe, with or without the influence of Roamer (because they still might all join back up, eventually, who knows). Also, I believe Kique already mentioned in a Q&A that Kargo and Ferah will be the main focus again, in a couple of chapters.

I don't think people prefers Kargo x Roamer...I think people are confused. This amazing tale started out with the main trio Kargo Ferah Roamer. They were for CHAPTERS the mainchars and I thought, this will be THEIR story. Now they were kinda put aside, Kargo painted as „like Ranach“ in favor of a character who should have died long before. It was the main trio. You know how I shipped them? As big pro/sis relationship, cause when Roamer left them the first time, they didnt looked like lovers...they looked like parents who lost their child, leaning on each other, sad and lonely. And Ferah looked lonely again when Roamer parted this time. The main trio who was with us for chapters now is gone and who knows when we see Kargo and Ferah again. It took ages for Jahla to appear again and to be honest...I thought this is a story would be about adventures like Asmundr, just different, about survival but so far it isn't. I also kind of fear Kargo and Ferah might be killed off so they won't disturb Roamer Rogio any further, although that might be unfair from me and I am sorry for that. I really love this comic, just wanted to point ot why this couple might get so much critique. They are as rushed as Kargo and Roamer, I never mind that to be honest, cause relationships move differently, but we saw a lot of KxR, cute interactions, deep conversations. I am quite shocked people compare Kargo to RANACH when ROGIOS behavior and the things he had done (or not done) will be ignored cause people like his sad eyes. Idk. Jahla was called out, Rhov was called out, Kargo Ronja Ferah...but Rogio can act as he want. Like I said, I love this comic, but lately it feels it has lost the way it has in the beginning. The main trio is destroyed (and it would have been possible to split up Kargo Roamer without destroying it- like I said, I saw all of them more as family then lovers anyway) and we have so many plots that it gets hard to even feel for this characters...not enough screentime. I think it would be better to merge the plots and focus on less characters at the time, but it makes no sense to put characters aside for newer ones when the old ones are the ones with the development. We didn't saw Ferah doing anything important since Ronja conversation with is ages ago. So it might be that why people are frustrated, instead of unhappy shippers. At least that's the reason for me.

Kuni

I see people complaining about Roamer rushing into this... We have to remember he is young and new to these feelings. Many of us have rushed into something at one point and sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. I just don't understand all the hate these two are getting for it. Mistakes have to happen to build character, so let them happen if they may. Some people react to heart ach by jumping head first into the next thing. Is it smart? Probably not. Does it always turn out bad? No. Let them grow and discover, if anyone knows these characters best it's the author.

Retroleem

It's definitely not just you, I'm growing sick and tired of Roamer x Rogio...I'm growing tired of all these romantic ships. I'm all for ships but I would rather see what Jahla and Thakir is going to do about Rohgir or what Kierr and Aira are going to do next. The romance is starting to become too much and focus is going on these two A LOT lately. I honestly wouldn't mind focusing on other characters for the next 10 or so pages.

Yeah, people should wait a bit to see what comes of it before they finalize their decisions.

Roamer acknowledges that this is fast, and it's only one page, He will probably talk about Ranch later, but right now this is a happy moment.

I really hope this is leading to them actually speaking about things that transpired instead of banging it out again... Roamer says he isn't sure they are meant to be together yet his actions seem to be saying the opposite? I was really hoping they'd have that one intimate moment but then back off to actually think it over before committing. Maybe I'm judging too quickly. Maybe I'm just getting tired of all the romantic drama in general, I hope it cuts to Keirr and Aira soon, personally I found their part of the story more interesting without all the romance flying around. The main ship of the story just isn't all that interesting to me I guess. I can't really get into either Roamer x Kargo or Roamer x Rogio because it feels like the same mistakes being made. I'm starting to think it's just me not caring much for either of the three to really get invested. LOL

Peentz

I do agree that Roamer should be single for awhile and think things through, but seriously enough with the "its rushed" comment. No matter how Kique tries to play this out, its never enough. At this point keep it to yourself or dont say it. When it comes to relationships, you cant really pinpoint if its rushed or not, everyone is different. Some people say its on a good pace and some people says its not (and no im not trying to sound rude, just being honest). And before i judged these two and their relationship, i do want to see how this plays out. This is only one page of a specific scene to future scenes in the comic

DD

Oh...I totally forgot that tbh. But yeah I didnt found Kargos reaction off, he's a brute but he did changed a lot through Roamer, just it is somewhat clear he wouldnt act understanding. A break up HURTS, like a lot, especially if one part still has feelings, which was the case with Kargo. I found his reaction very realistic, to be honest. But thank you for pointing that hiding thing out, cause I really forgot about it oo.

Adora

Let's not forget, fellow fans of Home, Roamer also was hiding his thoughts on what could have happened with Ronja towards her father and the pack while he was thinking she could have been raped (and went swimming), Rogio hid the truth about Ranach as well. Kargo is my favorite character in this comic because he has the most sense above all, and even had a more than natural reaction to Roamer's bullshit. x)

What I really dislike about Rogio, is how easily he falls in love. Someone just need to be nice to him and he starts having feelings for them. He admit what effect Rhov had at him in a short time. Also how he doesnt tell the whole truth. He might not lie but he keeps certain details for himself. Dunno but I dont trust him fully.

Nadine

Sorry but after this page, I've completely lost all likeness of Roamer and Rogio (not that I ever had much, to begin with). Here I thought Roamer was going to have a nice chat with Rogio about Ranach but instead he tells Rogio that yes, he wants to be his new boyfriend. TheSodaSmuggler has basically said what I was thinking so there's nothing I could add to that. And no, I do not favor Roamer x Kargoe over Roamer x Rogio...I would prefer Roamer stay single at this point but between the two ships, I find Kargo and Roamer better? Like...at least they had their cute moments. Yeah, they rushed into it as much as Roamer and Rogio did but they had more development. Had snowball fights, joked around, told each other stories and Kargo was patient, didn't ever try to pressure Roamer into sex, most they did was kissed. Then there's Roamer and Rogio. First of all Rogio is taking his friends ex....so he deserves that "fuck you" from Kargo. Second of all they're making out and having sex after Roamer found out about Zilas...that should be illegal! I mean who does that? It's like saying you had sex later on that night after going to a family members (who you were close with) funeral. I found that totally disrespectful to Zilas. Least do that a few miles away from where he died. I've come to hate Roamer and Rogio as a whole, I won't bat an eye if they both die. Anyways...great page!

I love this page so much, and I'm loving them more and more. They're going to be a great fit for each other, and honestly now screw KxR. That was a relationship full of uncertainty, and Roamer has finally figured out what he actually wants, and it's not Kargo and his aggression. Knowing the possible intent of the irrblos was probably a HUGE eye opener to Roamer.

Farvardin

This is just beautiful. You can tell that these two would be great together. These two have been through so much in past relationships, where they've been lied to, or having fear and submission from the MT in Rogio's case. Their talk about regretting not doing anything, that could've stopped bad things from happening in the past. They finally have something, or rather someone, to hold onto. They both are caring, loving, and it's clear that they are both wanting someone who is truthful and understanding. It's clear that the nightmare coming back, Rogio is in need of someone to be there for him, to help him through that tough battle in his mind. These two have known each other for almost two months in Aedra time, and the more they've talked, the more they've bonded. Even those scenes with them not even saying a word, you can tell that there's a connection that they have that doesn't need words. I can't wait to see where this relationship goes, cause it truly shows that these two were meant to be together.

Just some thoughts to your points: "It doesn't make sense that Roamer would break up with him over something so incredibly miniscule and incompetent." -- I don't think it's miniscule and incompetent to withhold information about someone's family. However, you have a point that Roamer never made it very clear to Kargo and Ferah the depth of his bonds or attachments to his family, especially since he wanted to leave them to join Kargo and Ferah so quickly. 2) I think it was obvious as soon as it was revealed that Ronja was the leader now that the MT had turned a new page. His only view of the MT after rescuing Kargo was that Ronja was there, the rules have changed, and there's no more abuse. I can understand why he wouldn't see them in the same light. However you have a point that after all he had heard of the MT it's surprising he didn't at least flinch about the idea of joining, or take the time to explain to Ferah and Kargo why it was a better place, unless there was dialogue that we don't see. You do have good points about Rogio and all that he just stood by to allow to happen. I'm sure he was afraid, but he doesn't even get the excuse that he didn't know any another way, given that he was born in a different tribe that wasn't like that. That he was so blinded by Ranach to turn a blind eye to so much suffering doesn't award high marks indeed. 3) I think if we go back and really ponder over the interactions between Kargo and Roamer, Roamer has always seemed a bit intimidated by Kargo, disguised under him being confused and not knowing what he wants. When Kargo tried to initiate affection, Roamer, mostly shied away. I think there is some validity in what he told Kargo about not knowing what he wanted until he met Rogio. Thanks for the thoughts.

AWWE!!! <3 ;w;

Wild Dreamkiller

Ah Roamer. You're the epitome of toxicity, sorry to say. I strongly dislike what's happening here, this entire situation boggles my mind. Roamer is absurd, truly absurd. The beginning of the story revolved around Roamer, Kargo, and Ferah. They've been through so much together. Roamer knows exactly the Hell that his two friends experienced and for him to join the MT shows his disgraceful ignorance. He has no honor, not an ounce of 'good' should be bestowed upon him. Him and Rogio shouldn't have been cannon. Shall I list why? Sure. 1) Roamer and Kargo were the main focus in the beginning of the story, there was so much more development and realism in their relationship. It doesn't make sense that Roamer would break up with him over something so incredibly miniscule and incompetent. He cried for Kargo, he cared for him, Kargo was his hope and light. 2) Kargo and Ferah were born in a Tribe of rape, abuse, and captivity. The wretched MT. absolutely nobody in their right state of mind would join something their own close friends have been avoiding, rebelling, or surviving against. Roamer knows exactly what's happened. It's not only Kargo and ferah, his best friend Zilas was killed and tainted by MT paint. Put down by their blade. Rogio was going to LEAD that ambush on zilas. Rogio was there during the first rebellion, he did not do ANYTHING. Rogio abandoned Kargo. Rogio, the baron of the MT at the time, allowed the abuse and rape to CONTINUE. Rogio in this case is selfish, he only cared for Ranach whom is scum to begin with. 3) Compared to Kargo, Roamer “fell in love” with Rogio over the span of a couple days. He had sex with him two nights after a break up. That's dreadful. He doesn’t care. That means that everything him and Kargo had been through together had no significant meaning. It was rushed, what happened to “it's moving a bit too fast” ? Roamer is mindless and has no sense. The fact that Roamer would gladly join the MT, have sexual relations with Rogio, and account for Ronja, aka a female he had no care for since the get-go, he completely forgot about the search for her, and to leave Kargo and Ferah shows his true betrayal, disloyalty as a friend, and indecency as a character. If I knew Roamer and saw him physically, I would put him down. Rogio’s fate should be sealed with the night beasts. Aside from them, Ronja admitted she was jealous, she didn't want to be in the disgusting MT. Solution? Terminate the MT name. Lead the females to a better future, unite them and form a new tribe. Banish the males that killed and raped their family. The MT name was tarnished and should not be able to live on. Both Ulfr and Ranach need to be killed off in order to maintain any amount of peace

Agreed. As I’ve mentioned multiple times before, I really think these two are good for each other, and I’m so happy that Roamer has decided to give Rogio a chance, despite his fear of being hurt, and/or hurting others. I’m looking forward to seeing their relationship grow; in my opinion, it has the potential to be the most beautiful, trusting, loyal, and loving relationship that we’ve seen in the story, thus far. That being said, though, I really hope that Roamer and Rogio have a heart-to-heart conversation, where they really talk and get to know each other more, before just jumping into bed, once again. Honestly, I thought it was too fast, the first time, but I could understand it, then, with both of them being vulnerable, in need of comfort, and in the heat of the moment... but this time, I hope they hold off having sex, for now, and instead connect together, emotionally, rather than physically. A good relationship isn’t based solely on sex, after all.

CorruptAngel

I don't see how y'all don't like them together. They're a much better couple than Kargo and Roamer, and much healthier too. I feel like most of you guys are using the "it's rushed" excuse because you all just preferred Kargo x Roamer. I believe they will make a fine couple, and look forward to their future. If they do not make it then so be it, but i hope Roamer never gets back with Kargo. I have no confidence he will change his angry personality

Octarines

I don't like them together, they're rushed and I really hoped Roamer would learn from his mistakes and not just jump into a relationship again with someone he doesn't know well... That's all I have to say, I guess. Also disappointed he did not mention what Kargo told him about his past with Ranach, unless he will pick up this topic in the future.

overcastsea

I'm looking forward to see where this relationship is going with all that's thrown at them (Ranachs possible attack, night beast Rogio....Ranach in general^^") But it's good to see both so happy and especially Roamer being content with his choice for once. Yet I agree with everyone who says it feels kinda rushed. But Roamer seems to know that, so, yeah, wait and see where this is going. Also let's all appreciate dear Fremja for her comment about the Irrbloss, which apparently had a great impact on Roamer :)

Yami

This page is amazing! My fav ship will probably always be KargoxRoamer, but since Rogio is my fav character i think it will be interesting to see them grow as a couple <3

I'm just so happy to see these two happy together. I'm not a shipper to ship, as I go by how the story goes. Sure it might seem fast by human standard for us, but how they caress and are open to eachother, how they share their burdens to eachother, the chemestry between them equal from both, I'm for Romio! Hope this will be when they bond as a couple so we can see the focus on Ronja and Roamer as friends back together and Roamer be there for Ronja, with help of Rogio. <3

Tora Collita

they were together after two or three weeks I think (KxR) and Roamer slept with Rogio after 8 days I think? They very next day they were at MT and then plus 6 day to relationship^^

Adora

I like the fact is took Roamer*Kargo like 3 days and took Roamer*Rogio almost half a month, if not more, and people still think it's "rushed" 8')

Viktor

It doesn't matter if I am for or against their relationship, at this point I'm just so glad they get to be happy even if it's just for a moment <3

Aerophoinix

Well I guess I was wrong with my "faith" in Roamer XD Still rushed and not a good couple in my opinion (and I really hope Rogio will at least mention Kargo, as they were so close in the past and he basically took his ex after some days, which is a no go between friends or even persons who just respect each other), but like Kitsune said, not my story to tell, I guess I still can ignore them and hoping for Roamer Ronja friendship scenes, which I really do, because she really needs her best bud right now. And there are other things in this comic that are great, so I still can enjoy them! Anyway, something different, I always love your music of choice, Kique. You always introduces me to beautiful music, I really got a huge list because of you XD love it. How do you come up with these music every time? Do you listen and search for a specific song, or is it more like "Oh, found it and it could fit?" Anyway, great job with it.

Adora

This is just absolutely beautiful.. My feels hit hard. I just love these two as a couple... But sadly it probably wont last something is going to happen to Rhogio he was most likely kept alive to spice up everything till his end. I really hope im wrong though, becuase he is my most favorited character in this story.

VonTriggers

Hey Kique - You have they twice in the 2nd bubble - First panel - "When they first they came to me" - teehee, I'm assuming you meant for it to say "When they first came to me" ^_^ - Just thought I'd let you know :) Also glad to see Rogio relax some wow - This is a adorable page - I just hope more than anything that it works out for these two.

Thalidan

I’ve never felt so warm and happy for them. They really deserve each other after all the shit their previous lovers did to them.

Spiritstrike

Still personally not a fan of this ship, but I'm not the one telling the story so oh well xD That said this admission and confession from Roamer is beautiful and I love Rogio's reaction. He looks so happy and at ease in the 6th panel, and after seeing his latest nightmare I'm glad to see him relax. He really is a sweetheart.

Kitsune

same

And is it just me or do I possibly sense another Bonus Page? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Skittles

I was never a huge fan of these two as a couple, but this puts them in a whole new light... I can't help like this couple.

also I'm pretty sure the "i" in Irrblos in the first panel should be capitalized

Look at Rogio in that 6th panel^~^ He's actually running(?) to him :3 LET THEM BE HAPPY FOR ONCE. THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT. LOOK AT THEIR FACES IN THE LADT PANEL, GAH <3

Skittles

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Awwwwwwwww.. my heart that's so cute
