Blank ? Maybe isn't defected but means still something oO

Though, looking at Muse's and the Artist's expression, it's a considerably ominous picture.

Hope Notion is okay.

*thinks* Though, perhaps everyone's future is blank! A wide open canvas to be painted as one sees fit!

Huh. Great minds think alike.

Ah, a blank canvas upon which to create her own visions! Perfect!

she'll get a gob as an accountant. thats the same as blank right?

you should have got her a microfox instead of a 8-ball though.

Weird Coinkydink. In my stories Notion collects Barbies, including the "New" styles made to appeal to anthopomorphic animal children.

she is five already? my word how time flies I admit.

Actually Notion is rapidly approaching 15 years of age. I've been kinda slow in writing her stories.

Ah ok then, that is understandable I think from the times we were discussing such.

Oh no! Tragic 8-Ball!

And I've got one of these, it never fails to be accurate.

OH! I Love ordering stuff through the Archie McPhee Catalog. I'm still trying to track down a "Gag" pistol that shoots out a flag that says "BANG!".

 drakefenwick proved it could be much worse: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2159233/

Seen it and 'faved it. Of course the most destructive Magic 8 Ball I've seen was featured in the movie, "Pontiac Moon."

. . . Oh. That's odd.

And, I wasn't aware. Happy Birthday to Notion.

Blank as in 'fill in the'?

I guess, 'blank' as in an empty strip of paper out of a fortune cookie...

That's an invitation to scribble whatever you want on it.

discover the possibilities!

front: "Duck for cover!"
rear: "Right now!"

Even though it's 10 years late... LOL! I've got to pull that gag the next time my friends and I go out for Chinese food and get fortune cookies.

Yeah. The image was intended to be a "Filler" page for a fanzine that I contrib to.

It's about time you drew something new I waited all last year.

Sorry about that. Hopefully things will get a little better.

ho good some new notion stories!

That's very astute. People should listen to you.

I would find that result puzzling but a relief. It's too awesome for a silly trinket to read, but so awesome it can let you know that.

And happy bday to Notion ^_^

Well, but what was the question she asked it? Great to see new art from you!

Well, that's not the "Zen" or some of the other variations available in things like the iBall (an app for the iPod Touch / iPhone).

Then again there's the bit from Back to the Future 3. The girlfriend grabs a piece of paper with "You're Fired" on it, only by the end of the movie it's gone blank. Doc Brown: It means your future hasn't been written yet. No one's has. Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one, both of you.

Well, the future ain't what it used to be, that's for certain..... 7@=Q

"Happy _______, Notion!"

Oh! Now I get it!

lol I got the equivolent of that once. I kept asking the same question and the ball didn't give me an answer the thing just kept giving me an edge so now what does a line mean in one of those things and I know it works as other people shake it and it gives the normal answers. hopefully notion has a better time figuring it out then I ever will

I dunno... I know a number of people who might as well have had their futures predicted as "blank" when they five.

Unless hert future is so..."unset" that the thing doesn't even want to try to "call" it.

heheh A blank future means you aren't predestine. So theres alot more freedom. Well thats one way of looking at it

Perhaps she has totally free will and can become anything that she wants to be!

Or maybe this is the 8 ball's version of a computer "crash". It couldn't handle the question.

Heheheh...are you suuuure?

Reminds me of the day I went to the Chinese restaurant with my family, and when we went to pick the fortune cookies out of the bowl... Mine was empty.

So they said 'Oh, go get another.'

... Which was also empty.

I didn't want to play the game anymore after the *third* one came up empty, too.

And it wasn't a bad batch, either; There were other people pulling cookies from the same bowl at the same time and none of theirs were empty...

That is intriguing. Three times you say? That is just too much of a coincidence to be considered "Normal." Hopefully your times since then haven't been too "Interesting"... In the Chinese sense of the word?

Her future may be "uncertain" but Little Notion is still a precious sweetheart in my book.

I must confess that this is one of my favorite and most original "Blank" pages for NAF Fanzine. Kind of a Wasted effort really. I DO like the pose and how the perspective worked out though.

And her expression makes me want to give her a hug!
