Mona: Once again, the heat is back, and it hits hard. But this time, I’ve planned lots of tips to fight against the heat wave!
I won’t be fooled!
There is the essential: The fan. (Full blast, preferably) It’s simple, and quite effective. But it requires staying in one place without moving.
Above all, protect yourself from the sun! Because it burns! Stay in the shade, and put on a big hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen…
Well, yes, even indoors, you never know! Eh ? It’s your hat ?
We must fight together! Due to this unbearable heat, a little ice cream can help me hold on and…
Geraldine: Mona, I’ve already told you about fifteen times, it’s not time.
Mona:…Not even half an ice cream?
Geraldine: Have an apple juice. I come later.
Mona: In case of absence of ice cream (and cooperation), it is necessary to hydrate, it is super mega important!
Water, fruit juice, whatever, you need plenty!
…But hey, the downside is that you spend three hours in the bathroom afterwards, in addition to feeling a little bloated…
So maybe not plenty, actually…
Bloub…Glurp…
In the absence of air conditioning, the fridge can also be used…
Geraldine: MONA!!! But in the end, are you okay?!
Mona: But mommy ! Don’t worry, I didn’t touch the ice cream, I promise! I’m just bringing out the fresh…
Geraldine: You’re going to be sick, close that door now! You risk….hot and cold! But how long did you stay in front of that fridge?
Refresh yourself, yes, but not to the point of getting a cold…

“Well, it’s my fault too, I shouldn’t have left alone… but finish the stock of apple juice on your own… you’ll admit it…”

Geraldine: Hello, two baguettes, please.
Mona: Ooooh! A cutie little sheep !
Mommy ! Can you take me a little sheep pleaaaase ?
Geraldine : Well, we just came to get some bread. But hey, it’ll make a little dessert for when we get back.
Mona: Yeah, great !…
…wait, ’‘dessert’’ ?
Geraldine : Yes ? Mona, it’s a cake, not a plush.
Mona: So what ?
Geraldine: Well, if I get you one, you’ll have to eat it !
Mona: EAT IT ?! PARDON ME ?? But he’s way too cute to eat ! Look at him ! Me, I want to protect it from others, it’s out of the question that anyone eats that little sheep !
Geraldine: Come on, be reasonable… do you really want me to buy you a dessert that you’re not going to eat ? It’s white chocolate-vanilla, too.
Mona: Well we don’t take it, I refuse to participate in a crime against the 'tits moutons. I am very angry.
Geraldine: Alright, Too bad for the dessert… they were too cute to be eaten !
Mona: Criminal !

Mona: Phew… It’s hot today!
Chloé: Don’t worry, I’m making lemonade. We are going to refresh!
Mona: Do you know how to make lemonade?
Chloé: Let’s say I train, but I practically know how to do it.
Mona: …Are you training? To do what ?
Chloe: To not die of thirst, hey, pumpkin! When it’s hot, you’ll be happy to have a friend who knows how to make it!
Chloé: And then you’re not going to say no to a lemonade! Come on, tell me more!
Mona: Well, thank you!
Glop, glop
ZGLUP!?!
GLUPTZ?!?
Mona: … How many lemons did you put in?
Chloe: Uh… a lot…?

“ Je suis une oeuvre d'art, maman ! ”
“ I’m a masterpiece, mom !”
In case you were wondering, yes, she indeed searched a bit in the laundry basket to find some suitable accessory for the joke. She just thought that the beret was nice.
Of course, it was on a laundry day. And yes, this dressing gown belong to her mom.

It’s Mona Lisa, but it’s more Mona than Lisa.
I actually had this little joke for a while, and since there’s a little art contest around this painting on deviantart going on, it was the right moment to do it !
It took me slightly longer to do than what I’ve expected, because I wanted to do the background at least in a similar way than the original.

Perhaps letting Mona oversee the basket while Chloe hunts for the Easter eggs wasn’t the best idea.
Mona isn’t really good at controlling her appetite, specially with this amount of sweets right under her nose. But she saved one for her friend ! One that she already have a bite in it, but it counts.
Well, at least, they still have the wrappers, it’s still proof that they found the eggs ! So… it’s good ?
Happy Easter to you, guys !

“Si c'était un livre de son âge, elle ne serait venue qu'avec un jus de pomme. Là, elle savait qu'il y'avait une petite chance que livre ne l'intéresse pas. Mais bon, je peux quand même lire tranquille, et elle est sage. Ça n’arrive pas souvent, donc je ne vais pas dire non ! ”

Translation :
Mona: So ? What are you reading ? What’s the story ? Can I read with you?
Geraldine: It’s just… Uh… I’m not sure you’ll like it. This is a novel for adults.
Mona: Oooh, for the grown-ups? It’s a story with kisses? Smooch-Smooch !
Geraldine: Haha, no, no, not a all !
… It’s just a science fiction book. But…VERY science fiction, a little too much for you.
Mona: Not at all. I can read with you no problem.
Geraldine: Well… if you want.
Mona: Great ! Wait, don’t move, I’ll be back, I’ll get my things! Get ready !
Geraldine: Well, in the end, the book will only have interested her for 10 seconds, but that’s not so bad, for once.

“If it was a book of her age, she would only have come with an apple juice. There, she knew that there was a small chance that the book would not interest her. But hey, I can calmly read my novel , and she’s calm too. It doesn’t happen often, so I’m not against it!”

“ C'est un livre que l'on m'a recommandé, apparemment un classique. Mais je suis pas sûr que tu t'intéresses aux livre de science-fiction, Mona. Ça parle de désert, de vers géants, d'épices et il y'a un enjeu hyper important entre le protagoniste et… ah. Tu t'es endormie.”

Translation:
Geraldine:Yippee !! I finally finished my job! I have a little hour of tranquility ahead of me, I can comfortably continue my book!
So, where was I…? Page, 233, 233… There! Peeeerfect !
Mona: So? What are you readiiiiing?

“It’s a book that was recommended to me, a classic, apparently. But I’m not sure you’re interested in science fiction books, Mona. It’s about the desert, giant worms, spices and there’s a huge stake between the protagonists and… oh. You fell asleep.”

Mona: Mom! I have to tell you…
Geraldine: Yes ? What is it, Mona ?
Mona: Well, I… uh… What are you doing here?
Geraldine: That, Mona, it’s yoga ! This is an activity that one of my friends recommended to me. It is to be more relaxed and in better shape, both physically and mentally.
And I must admit that it is effective.
Mona: So there, are you relaxed?
Geraldine: Yes.
Mona: Well, that’s a good thing!
… Does that mean you won’t get upset if I tell you that I broke one of your favorite vases?
Gerladine: …Let’s say I’ll give you more time to leave the room before I get angry.

Gaston Lagaffe is back ! Like, for real, they’ve announced a series revival by Delaf.
So far, his style is really similar, I hope the comic’s spirit in term of gag is going to fellow. ( But so far, it’s looking good ! )
For those who don’t know, Gaston Lagaffe is a comic created by André Franquin. It’s a 30 years old comics now, but it had a huge impact on the French/Belgic’s comic reference. As might guess, along Astérix and Tintin, he’s considered as a classic.
It’s also a childhood’s gem for me, I used to reads theses all the time. And I haven’t really change to be honest, I still read them and it’s still a reference and a huge influence in my art-style !
In short, Gaston is back, and I’m glad he is.

“Bon, je ne vais rien dire, c’est la 1ere (et dernière) fois que tu fais ça. Mais clairement, ne refait pas ça, tu me demande à la place. Et non, des biscuits, tu viens d’en avoir.”

Translation :
Geraldine: Well, I should put the cookie box away . With Mona around, it better not drag on.
?!?
Mona:!!
…Uh ,hehe, howdy ?
Geraldine: May I know what you’re doing in there ?
Mona: Bah, since you store the biscuits there now… I-I climbed…
Geraldine: Why did you do that ? Don’t you know that you could have fallen and hurt yourself badly ? You could have split your head open!
Mona:…Snif…
Geraldine: …Hey ! Mona, no, don’t cry…
It scares me to know that you could hurt yourself by falling like that.
It’s very dangerous ! I didn’t mean to scream, I just want you to understand… that’s all… don’t do it again, okay?
Mona:Snif… Yes…
Can I still have a cookie, please ?
Geraldine: SIGH… Mona, geez, really ?

“Well, I’m not going to say too much, it’s the first (and last) time you’ve done this. But clearly, don’t do that again, you’re asking me instead. And no cookies, you just had some, that’s all now.”

Geraldine once again, working, but with the rhythm of the holidays. So it’s chill.
She usually takes cookies to calm her stress in times of rush, but this time, it’s just because she was a little hungry.
She doesn’t often have “calm without a surprise rushing at the last minute” work moments, so these little moments are precious !
