Cucumber Quest: Basically if Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door was a comic

The Nightmare Knight's expression changed.....thats a first...this will definitely be significant...but in what way, I wonder?

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-04-07, 01:24 AM (ISO 8601)

It was completely hilarious, at least.

**Forrestfire** · 2014-04-07, 01:38 AM (ISO 8601)

I cracked up at today's update, yeah. "a what." indeed

**Qwertystop** · 2014-04-07, 06:43 AM (ISO 8601)

Gradient on the edge is fun - I honestly thought there was an image-loading glitch until I got to the bottom.

**AdmiralCheez** · 2014-04-07, 10:26 AM (ISO 8601)

I thought the same exact thing! Especially since it was being a little slow to load for me at first. I was about ready to hit refresh when I finally scrolled down all the way. Looks like Nightmare Knight has never had a friend before. Incompetent minions, maybe, but not friends.

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-04-07, 11:30 AM (ISO 8601)

I love this comic so much, ahhhhhh.

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-04-08, 12:44 PM (ISO 8601)

Behold! The terrifying Nightmare Knight!

**memnarch** · 2014-04-08, 09:54 PM (ISO 8601)

Oh man. OH Man. This was even better than yesterday!

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-04-08, 10:49 PM (ISO 8601)

Cucumber Quest is killing me with these awesome updates. @_@

**Forrestfire** · 2014-04-08, 11:16 PM (ISO 8601)

Words cannot describe my amusement by these past two pages

(Can we get a spinoff movie featuring these two? I'd totally read that.)

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-04-10, 09:30 PM (ISO 8601)

Cucumber Quest update and by gosh is it adorable.

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-04-10, 09:43 PM (ISO 8601)

yup, I figured there was bound to be something tragic about him....

I think its all but confirmed that he is NOT doing this because he wants to, because he doesn't...and if his actions are any indication, he hasn't actually harmed anyone yet....something about this all just a play, a lie, a fake, a show he must put on over and over again.....but why? thats the real question...

**AdmiralCheez** · 2014-04-10, 10:18 PM (ISO 8601)

I like the Princess's interpretation of his childhood, especially how the eery, purple smoke clouds around him look like a cape. Actually, I just really like the Princess's drawings, from both pages.

**danelsan** · 2014-04-10, 11:33 PM (ISO 8601)

Oh boy, between Cucumber Quest and JL8 I'll end up with diabetes one of these days

**MilesTiden** · 2014-04-11, 04:48 PM (ISO 8601)

So, I basically binge-read up to the most recent update today, and I have to say that Cucumber Quest is one of the single most fantastic things I've read in a long time. The combination of inhuman adorableness and great writing is absolutely lovely, and has sort of kickstarted my drive to get back into my artistic stuff. On that note, I made a song for the glorious godly being that is Bacon. It's not really anything serious, but I plan on making little doodles like this for each character, if I can.

Hah, yeah, this is totally awesome!

**AdmiralCheez** · 2014-04-12, 09:28 AM (ISO 8601)

Aww, looks like Happy Friendship Time is over.

...For now, anyway.

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-04-12, 01:30 PM (ISO 8601)

yea, can't have him reveal too much at once, or the story is screwed up.....

also I just realized, if this is PM: TYD as a webcomic, then Cucumber is actually the Goombella/Goombario in this situation- normally, he'd the annoying first sidekick you get who just uses a weak attack and Tattles on the enemy, and thats what everyone treats him as. meanwhile his sister is the one who'd normally be the hero, the Mario if you will going around defeating everything in her path, while Carrot would be the cowardly Koopa you get. Nautilus is at first hard to pin down, but the fourth partner one gets in paper mario is a high-class lady who is a bit isolated from the rest of the world, and Nautilus fits that perfectly, with being a princess, but her cheerful personality would also indicate she is like the third character, Bombette

So if the the trend continues, we will get a brash/kidlike character who hits hard but is fragile (Watt or the Yoshi) an older character with more experience (Sushi or Bombarry) and an uncertain character who betrays the villains (Vivian or Lakilester).

or maybe not, but its a pattern I've seen....

**MilesTiden** · 2014-04-13, 03:08 PM (ISO 8601)

So, I made two more fansongs, this time for Cucumber and Tomato. I'm still wondering if I should do boss themes, but that can wait.

**memnarch** · 2014-04-14, 08:36 PM (ISO 8601)

The letter's missing! He might actually deliver it! :O

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-04-14, 10:35 PM (ISO 8601)

Heh. Real nice guy for an evil overlord of doom.

**Qwertystop** · 2014-04-20, 04:18 PM (ISO 8601)

So this page pretty much confirms that nobody knows entirely what's up with NK. Maybe some of the other Disaster Masters, but maybe now.

EDIT: Also, the break-the-ground-into-little-pieces spell seems to come with its own screaming.

**danelsan** · 2014-04-27, 05:31 PM (ISO 8601)

Damn it, Peridot! Even the villains in this thing as exceedingly adorable

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-05-05, 12:22 AM (ISO 8601)

why'd that song princess refer to the other princess as "Ammie" and blush when she corrected herself, as well as request to give Ametrine a letter?

*narrows eyes suspiciously* close friends, clearly.....but how close? >:3

Based on Gigi's tweet here, I think it can be safely presumed that the relationship between the two princesses is obviously exactly what it looks like.
Or, in other, words, as one of the responses below that said...

It is good that I wasn't drinking anything when I got to Piano's laughing face, or I would almost surely be cleaning my keyboard right now

**Tectonic Robot** · 2014-05-15, 09:56 AM (ISO 8601)

The Dream Oracle is kind of a huge jerk.

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-05-15, 10:02 AM (ISO 8601)

and probably the mastermind behind all of this. that upgrade probably has something sneaky hidden in it, just waiting to be used on her command to do something according to whatever scheme she has in store....

@ latest comic: hm. smart Cucumber. your planning on asking the Nightmare Knight aren't you?

**JavaScribe** · 2014-05-21, 10:21 PM (ISO 8601)

"test subject". Sounds familiar. Who else has been expecting Cosmo to somehow get involved in their current mode of transportation?

**Lord Raziere** · 2014-05-21, 10:31 PM (ISO 8601)

I like how they started to answer with happiness and then was like "WAT."
