Week 70! (Patreon)

So unlike the previous two's hobbies, Campy's poetry writing has been pretty central to both his character and even the story at large, with him spouting off poems to people early on in the comic every now and then and his epic poem project Enes the Sparrow being a big relevant mystery.

I don't actually quite remember the reason for making Campy a poet. I'm fairly sure it was conceived during the entire planning stage for the reboot for the New Canon back in 2007/2008 in order to give Campy some qualities and quirks of his own, since he desperately needed some, as he was mostly just a sleeping, drooling prop in the Old Canon. Writing poetry probably just seemed to fit into Campy's newer personality that was being developed, where a laidback sorta guy with a surfer accent might also be more "artsy". There might be other reasons that were directly considered when picking his hobby, but they'd be spoilers so that'll come later.
