Recording the creative process

I'd been trying to keep triangles in AKOTAS (except in fillers) as minimalist as Arthur's in his webcomic, until Arthur's have come to evolve to be as elaborate as mine are after almost ten years; as discussed in this space before. Friday I failed. In this week's Friday repost of the week's AKOTAS at my LiveJournal, a reader commented that he liked seeing the more elaborate triangles here. I replied that now I have to decide whether Arthur's triangles are to make the same leap now. As I was typing that reply, the script for this cartoon came to me.
