A new School Year is starting, and despite everything he's done in the name of harmony Gallus isn't sure if he can live up to the ideals of friendship. Not when there's still this gnawing angry voice in his head.
You're no better than any other griffon.
The first story in the New School of Friendship continuity
Now things are getting interesting!
Ha! I'm gonna have to write that one down, because not only is it clever and makes sense for griffon to utter, the mental picture I have of Gallus actually saying it amuses me greatly.
Looks like going to examine that blue flash led to their inevitable downfall after all.
So...what exactly caused Gallus's summer vacation plans to fall through? I assume due to the explosion last chapter, or related to it, but a clearer explanation of why would be nice, even if there's not really that much more to explain.
The whole concept for this actually reminds me of a comic I've been following for a couple of years, called "Bad Machinery." Same sort of premise--follows the adventures of a group of British school kids, alternating between the normal dramas of their everyday life and them attempting to investigate the odd and mysterious happenings taking place in and around their hometown.

Look forward to getting those awnsers friend.
I guess Pharynx wasn't available to hang with, then. There aren't many 'lings more snarkier than him, after all.
Feels like there's a missing line between these two lines...
Succinct as always, Ember.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, it's all starting to come together now...I can see why you held off explaining earlier.

thanks for the catch. On the missing line. A whole mini paragraph just disappeared from my document without anyone noticing.
And to be honest. I actually forgot about Pharynx.
So, it's basically just Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated?
Intriguing. I was a bit iffy when suddenly weapons and fighting classes, before the characters pointed out how weird it was.
Also, I love the illustrations.
Ocellus the conspiracy theorist. That could be...amusing.
What, indeed?
Y'know, I completely didn't think Rainbow might have suffered injuries that day too until now. Hmm.
I knew you were tweaking the past chapters to suit the changes in direction, so I reviewed them in brief, only to find the changes were pretty minor, all said, but it was a nice refresher regardless.
Love how these pictures turned out.
Ew, no--personal opinion here, but I frankly hate the smell of roasting coffee. But it works out, seeing I don't like coffee in of itself either, but that's neither here nor there.
Since Cleave seems to be the non-talking sort, I assume its Gallus who said that last line, but as it was a couple lines since he last spoke, it's not super clear, so I would advise adding something to clarify who's speaking there, just to cover all the bases.
To be fair, it just might be that he's not trained to recognize differing forms of magic. Like, how I could see two different types of trees, but still not recognize that they're different types, just that they're "trees."
However, possibly with some training, one might be able to change that...
Ow-ow-ouch, that was below the belt, Rainbow. And, I would argue, uncalled for. If anything, the opposite's true--for the both of you.
I suppose that is a little more original than "Young Six."
Hope Smolder's doing okay. I hate that I'm going to have to wait until next chapter to find out.
Otherwise, a fairly routine day at the School of Friendship it seems. I kinda wish the show did more of that kind of thing, honestly.
Perseus would disagree. OG Perseus not Percy Jackson.
I love these illustrations. It's the first time I've seen a fic on this website actually do that. Well done.
