Be careful you don´t meet the Libairian, or Phix.

Markvincible

Lol! That last drawing! This is wholesome though

DresdenQ

is it supposed to be 'tomes' not 'tombs' in image 2?

JAB the Tab

don’t forget the fanfic section

Ok, maybe I'm stupidly missing something, but I feel like I'm only seeing the top half of the last two pictures?

Normal universe Raine fan fictions are the forbidden tomes, they are mislabeled only to drive alternate universe Raine away. XD

Ellarihan

Interestingly, in all sketches about this alternative universe, Raine is always in the wolf form. In this AU, she can not transform? Or is Rose hiding this ability from her? Or are they hiding this ability from Trace?

That's all there is to them. Click on them to view them a bit bigger

In Fantasy Fiction often a Tome is just some sort of magical book. Either a book containing arcane knowledge or a book that's literally enchanted or anything like that. The specifics aren't important so long as they're some sort of Powerful Fantasy Book.

Well, she was born a Keidran. I considered that her default form even if she ages like a human. In this AU, she wasn't taught to be ashamed of it.

DiDiDi-X

This is the happiest sketch I've seen. It's so heart warming to see Raine and Rose.

coredumperror

This is great! Love the Manga joke. :)

Golden Gears

I don't think she was born keidran actually. I'm fairly certain of this because in the main comic the way that she maintains her human form is with a magic inhibitor which stops mana from being used. If it takes magic to become keidran and not the other way around then I would guess Raines default form is human.

*Trace marches stoically into the room, followed closely by Saria.* Trace: "Ah... There you are." Rose: "Master Trace! Apologies, sir. I was just sho-" Trace, visibly flustered: "It's quite alright. I wanted to discuss something with the two of you. I realize I may have... spoken in haste earlier. While I am still of the opinion that the manor is NO PLACE for a child; Saria and I have come to... an agreement on the matter after some... discussion." Saria: *Smirks darkly* Trace: "The girl may stay. Provided she does not interfere with my research and abides by the rules I have already laid out for-" Saria: "What my... DEAR husband... means, Rose darling, is that the girl has the run of the house. So long as she doesn't get into anything dangerous, she's free to go where she wants and do what she pleases. I've a tutor scheduled to begin her schooling whenever you wish." Trace, sulking: "Yes... well. If that's all. I shall... return to my studies. Good day." *Exeunt Trace* Saria: "...He's really not so bad once you get to know him, Raine dear. While he's around, you'll call him Master Trace. When he isn't, well.... we'll teach you what we call him when he isn't around." Rose: *Attempts to hold back laughter. Fails miserably.* Saria: *Not even trying to hide her laughing fit.* Raine: *Too consumed by booklust to even notice.*

Roughlandin

Apologies for yet another green text wall... o_O

noxamillion

That can't be just any manga. That gotta be Trace's (or Nora's) personal collection of doujin.

Linxan

Yeah, I was definitely figuring there must be a fair bit of ecchi stuff in there to be as forbidden as all that.

Miftox 01

It could also be, that her transformation needs magic in both ways. So the shackle holds her in her current form. That could maybe also explain how her outburst of magic against Carver simultaneously returned her to her human form.

DarthKeidran

Raine looks like a kid that just walked into a candy store and was told “Have at it.” And the restricted section! x’D³

DarthKeidran

In comic, Raine explains that when she was born she was either Keidran or shifted shortly after birth because the nurse fainted. Either way <b>Kubulai</b> is suggesting what is likely the reason. In this AU, Raine has been taught that being Keidran is nothing to be ashamed of.

Torbjörn Larsson

I'm pretty sure there is a manga/manger joke in the restricted section, if you excuse my French. / Raine: "Restricted must mean All For Me!"

Greywolf

Another inspired piece. Perfect amount of humor. I really enjoy seeing happy Raine in either form

Dragonlicious

Thank you so much for this. I so wish that they had gotten to have the aunt/niece relationship they deserved

Kyle Kowalchuk

We all know that she will eventually read the manga. Look at all other fiction, like Harry Potter, a restricted section is like a big read-me sign/Big Red Button.

Kyle Kowalchuk

I mean the fact she loves Ships is proof that she turned to the dark side/to up the forbidden arts!

MrWho

Imagine, in the Discworld there are books so "hot" that they have to be kept in water - which boils. :D

donutguy

apologizing for a text wall...in the comments...where there is only text? I see nothing to forgive here *grins STORYTIME!

donutguy

aaaand now I'm thinking of Thomas Sanders vines...ADD is such fun, sometimes!

metalman20

Yeahhhhhh so if this could be colored that would be great

ThirdKind

She was probably taught how to control it at will in this AU. But is still a kid and changes randomly when she gets excited.

Ordithus

Young Raine's wolf form is so adorable, her face so smooshable. Rule of cute.<br>That is why I think Tom draws kiddo Raine as a wolf more often.

Jaye

This is amazing

FurrySunny

I realy understand Mr. Tom here. Modern mangas are just garbage.

Ocathain

And thus the young Raine ignored Rose and went in anyway...beginning her fanfic obsession

Saberbeam

Huh, for some reason the picture scale and bordering seemed to imply more below I guess? Thanks :D

DarthKeidran

The force is strong with you, young <b>Skywatcher</b>, but you don’t know the power of the bark side!

DarthKeidran

I see it as more of a “only Trace, Saria, and I get to read these, type thing. Also, I’d hope that AOT/SNK, Tokyo Ghoul, and SAO are among the mangas in that bookshelf. (Frankly I think the manga for Tokyo Ghoul was better than the Anime. Hide’s death had much more meaning in the manga, as it’s implied that he sacrificed himself for Kaneki to keep going on, but in the anime, he’s more or less the victim of a stray bullet, though you at least know he did indeed die.)

DresdenQ

while i appreciate everyones dictionary definitions of 'tome', I know what one is, thus my query because it was originally 'tombs', which tom has obviously since corrected and updated here

SCD

Raine: Why are those manga books restricted? Rose: They’re poorly translated. Raine: Oh.

Act0

What a beautiful duwang

MiDoFox

We all know why they are restricted...

DarthKeidran

They’re translated in an ancient Basitin dialect.

Jotaro6900

Please make the Twokinds characters have their own gundam

Lexio

Young Raine is so adorable XD Though, i bet she'll be in that manga section as soon as Rose turns her back.
