dhasoidhoashdoasda oh noes....D:

Hrn, sorry about the site being a dead zone people :V, the ever observant me just noticed yesterday that Jiji hadn't updated for a while (OH LUL A WHOLE MONTH) and when I asked 'bout it there was some problems with the whole 'security thinger' of her new internets. (Thats a technical term yanno.)

However she told me not to worry as she would be able to log in to update later this week...we hope >_>;; ahahahaha... I bet you're asking why I can't post pages? Well. I suck. (Thats Ducky terms for she doesn't know how to do such fancy things like that.)

Anyways faggots :> Have yourself a good merry christmas and a Happy New Year~

Night~
Ducky. :V

Hey~ Heres page 16 for you. Lol, page 16. That's funny >> *cough* anyways~

yay! The first view of a demon!~ Hee aren't they pretty? C: So whats going on in this page? Well, Eva's running through her memories to try and tell 16 what happened. And the demon just wants to say hello :0

I hope all you American readers have a nice Thanksgiving tomorrow. My family is American, so we should be having some sort of Turkey too~! If your English, I hope you have a nice week <: See you all next week!

Sorry that this page is a couple days late, guys. I've just been so busy, I haven't had a chance to finish it! But its done now. I hope this wont happen again e___E
I also made a small script error on page 14, and so it looks like on the latest page that 16 is repeating himself. He isn't. That was my error >>;;;; *cough* that’s fixed now too.

ANNYYYWAYY..

16 starts quizzing Eva about what she saw, and she is rather worked up, and would love nothing rather than to leave. Unfortunately, 16 is only getting pissed off C: And dundundun! We go into memory lane~
Again, apologies for the lateness. I'll make sure page 16 is on time >:0!

o7_11_o7//14 weeks later posted by Jiji
Hope you guys had a good Halloween! I sure did! I was a random Zombie, and managed to actually terrify my neighbours kids. Goooood times. Ahem, anyways.

I can't believe we are hitting page 14 already. That means that we've been going something like 14 weeks. Crazy! I hope you guys are enjoying it as much as we are C:

So whats going on on this page? Well, Eva has been passed over to Shaun, and she isn't too happy about it. 16 is getting straight to the point and asking her questions about what she saw, and all Eva wants to do is get away from the area. What is she thinking?

See you all next week~

First off, HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Here is a picture for you to indulge in on this happy holiday. Don’t eat too much candy <3~ {click thumbnail to enlarge}



Second, sorry this page was slightly delayed. I have been very busy over the past couple of days with my art final assessments, and now that they are over for this project, I had a chance to finish the page <333

About page 13? The two men have now taken their leave, and left 16 and Shaun with the girl. She doesn’t seem too thrilled.

See you next week!

Here is page 12 for you guys. <33
Do not despair! Things will start explaining themselves soon. <:
Its nice to see the start of activity on the boards! No extras to report this week, mainly because we are both bogged down with work for half term.
Oh! Next week there will be a special Halloween update as well as a normal page~ so keep your eyes peeled!

17_1o_o7//11 and Expo | posted by Jiji
Theres page eleven for you <3

Been doing a few updates on the site. For example there is now information on the Cast pages on both Shaun and 16. We will release more info as the story progresses; we don't want to give out too much right at the beginning now do we? We also have started to link with other websites, the first of which is now in the Links Section. So take another explore around the site C: I will be putting more up as we progress!
Till next week!

1o_1o_o7// Double Figures! | posted by Jiji
Page 10! Yey! Finally in double figures. Horrayyyy! Hehehe. Page 10 on the 10th. *tard* The comic should start picking up soon, as people currently have NO idea what’s going on :B Don’t worry, we wont keep you in the dark for much longer, even though the chapter cover dictates otherwise.
Okay about this page? 16 thinks he is such a know it all. And he really isn’t. Silly boy. Poor Shaun s starting to get impaaaient.
I made a few updates, like fancy new next buttons along the bottom of the comic (I KNOW THEY ARE SO SHINY *shot*) and I also will start updating the Cast page. We wont be putting much up there, but basic stuff like, names, ages, likes and dislikes. More information will be available as the story progresses <3
I need to go get some lunch. See you all next week! <33

o3_1o_o7// Page 9 | posted by Jiji
Another lovely page for you <3 I love Eva and Rodney scenes in the background. They make me laugh. A lot. We may update sometime again this week, its all relative on how busy we both are. So for now, expect another update next Wednesday. (I also added stuff to the extras section. Not much, but it’s a start C:) I will be making updates to the site when I can, like reworking the first few pages where glaringly obviously errors have occurred and giving them proper speech bubbles (seeing as I just figured out how to do that 8D;) as well as updating a few of the grapics and filling out sections of the website. Again, this is dependant on how busy I am. See you next week! <3

26_o9_o7// Off to London | posted by Jiji
Theres page 8 for you. I am heading up to see Ducky this morning, so no doubt I’ll have lots of plot and updates to do when I get back C: Some people will have noticed that I added a <<< Read this way sign. This is to stop confusion over how the comic is read, because some people were still a little confused about the fact that’s its drawn, in the Japanese layout. I also added page numbers so you can keep track when we do big ass updates (which for the time being, will not be till we both haven’t got much to do with school work) I am happy that we are still getting pageviews, don’t forget to spread the 5AM love!

The only other things I have to say is that I have been working on AIM/Msn/Forum icons of 16 and Shaun, and these will be added, among a few other bits (like a dress up game I did of 16) to the Extras section some point on Thursday hopefully! Either that or this evening C:

I need to work on a few more bits for the layout, and pieces are really bothering me at the moment. Not too many changes, but a fair few to make it look even better!
Page 9 will be heading your way Next Wednesday! C:

18_o9_o7// Early Birds | posted by Jiji
Here you go! Page 7 a day early! Please note, that there will be no extra update on Wednesday. Thats shallot. Why a day early I hear you ponder to yourself? Well, I am away on Wednesday you see, and so it made sense that I post it early rather than late. Smart cookie that I am. *coughnotcough*
What to say about this page? 16 really should learn not to dare Shaun. Shaun takes dares far to seriously. ABUSE D:< but yes, 16 should know this by now. Idiot. Man they swear a lot C: Oh, and the 4th panel, makes me lol. A lot. x3

o6_o9_o7// Making a Late Date | posted by Ducky
OK. Sorry about the lateness and crap Dx yeah good first impression. not. *shot* Anyways. Why was the chapter cover late? o__O BECAUSE *get ready for the tarded excuse* Painter 9 died on me : < I was nearly done and hadn't saved. Yeah I'm sooo proffessional and blah. When it crashed I went to start again and then it was shove the child in bed time so yeah. D8 I cried alot after that. I hope you're happy? |D
Eeeennny way it took me a while to recolour because I was like perfectionist bitch. Go pher it yo. And lots of grump grump grump. But hopefully this coloured chap cover was worth the wait along with the new comic page. D8;; sheesh updates come quicker than ya think with me... o__O Gomen

o5_o9_o7// Oh dear! | posted by Jiji
The next page is finished and ready to go, however, we are having a few problems with the cover page. Bare with us and we should try and get both up by Thursday! Not a good start! Sorry xD

Oh! And I would personally like to thank ormsqueak for advertising us on her deviant journal. So all you Deviants, welcome to the comic and we hope you have a nice stay! (1400+ pageviews in one day?! Dude we are grateful!)

29_o8_o7// first updates | posted by Jiji
Hi all! So thus begins the updates of 5am. Buwha. I am Jiji (aka Megan), and I write the script of the comic and clean up the sketches that Ducky (Jen) draws. I also manage the website and junk. Nice ta meetcha. 8D Basically, this is the first update of 5AM! Hurrah! The comic is going to have a lot of violence, swearing, and demons in it, so although it may not be wise to show to under 12’s its great fun for everyone else. You’ll have to bare with us as we get an update schedule sorted out, the script still is being written, but hopefully we will have new pages every Wednesday, depending on how busy both myself and Ducky are. I mean, I am at Uni, and work can get very hectic, and personally I think that work comes before pleasures (LOLYEAHRIGHT *very bad procrastinator*) . It’ll take a little while to get into full swing, but hopefully you should enjoy this comic, as much as we have planning it! <3 Please check back next Wednesday for the next update! <3
