While Nanase might not need Sarah's help to figure out the goal of the puzzle, if the weights are all of varying weights Nanase still might need her help to figure out how to get the scales even.

Knowing Dan, though, I expect there to be a twist. My guess: adjusting the scale adjusts the height (and possibly intelligence or other attributes) of both of them in opposite ways, and the goal is actually to even out the attributes in question between Sarah and Nanase.

Yes ... surprising how she's able to figure it even like this. On the other hand, Sarah operates with handicap here: she's too small to see it properly.

I would expect that would be the idea.

Hmmmmm .... Nanase twisting is sexy ... oh, right. Yes, that would be possibility, although only twist in previous puzzle was self-inflicted.

The one dish of the scale is solid with a flat surface, while the other is a bowl. I don't think it's a simple matter of filling the bowl enough to equal the weight of the flat side, with Sarah the size she is, maybe she's meant to be sitting on the left hand side of the scale and Nanase needs to place enough weight in the bowl to equal the left side+Sarah.

Either that or the weight's current location is misleading and Sarah is supposed to sit in the bowl which would mean she weighs more than the left side, and Nanase places weights on the left until it balances.

So where's the Duck?

This would probably belong in the December 12 reaction thread, since that's the comic it's a colouring of.

Oops.

It's not a milestone/pinup or a sketchbook (yet) so I guess I'll mention this here:

Bonus color versions on Patreon.

Personally, I like the first one best.
