Wow, Abel's pissed. Really pissed. And apparently Kria/Lorenda got Dan stabilized and back to the Lost Lake Inn. But this looks like it's later in the same day, so it can't be too much later. And hey, it's Wildy! Been a bit since we saw her. She looks really worried.

Also, great sketch, Amber. Love the Gungan. Where does this Jar-Jar hate come from anyway? Anyway, good luck with the t-shirt designs.

I wanted to see what happened to Regina's room!

Cool Gungan sketch.

@Jairus: I think the Jar-Jar hate came from the fact that he's just a hanger-on.  He really serves almost no purpose in the Star Wars Universe when he is first introduced, and that likely caused people to hate him, since most of the main characters introduced serve a purpose early in their introduction.

Anyone notice that Alexi's and Wildy's dialog could be interpreted easily as "I wish I had been there to help beat the snot out of Dan?"

I know it's not because of their concerned expressions, but the Radio folks will have to be careful about their reading from today's strip!

Not that Wildy would ever anyone to cause Dan harm, of course!. . . . She'd want to do it herself!

I disliked Jar-Jar because he seemed to be there to make blatant and crass attempts to jar specific emotional responses from me, the viewer.  I was amazed when Lucas successfully found a dramatically true reason for him by making him responsible for forming the Empire . . . for all the wrong reasons.

Why am I reminded of those 'Mad scientist (try to) kill off spy with elaborate death instruments' moments when I see Fi and Abel?

Yes, I do post just to see my own words on the screen.

My personal opinion is that things like that are best left... unseen so the fans can use their imaginations.

Very true, but also keep in mind the last time Dan was seriously injured. Wildy was the one who healed Dan. While yes, Wildy does harm Dan on a somewhat consistent basis, they are still friends. All's fun and games while it stays at the bumps, scrapes, and small cuts. From what I can tell, once things get serious (or seriously injured), so does Wildy.

As for Abel... can I say Angry Abel is angry? And somehow, I feel like Fi does deserve that treatment/punishment.

Or Darth Vader...

Darth Abel: "You have failed me for the last time. Fo!"
Fo: "Yes Lord Abel?"
Darth Abel: "Make ready to follow Dan wherever he goes, and deploy the Aci so that no harm shall come to him. You are in command now, Fo!"
Fo: "Thank you, Lord Abel!"

I see Abel has perhaps slipped enough in his concentration that his back wings have shown, though the head wings are still hidden.

Yes.  A pity we don't know how that happened regarding the Kria/Abel scenario, as it would have been a bit weird and dangerous if Lorenda singlehandedly carried him back.  I guess either Fi finally came to its senses or Kria must have teleported them, because I doubt Lorenda knows how.

And yes, the last frame is win.

Oh, oh.  That could be interesting when she finds out it was Biggs who sent him to his doom.

EDIT:

Abel has every right to be pissed.  He may or may not have some tie or alliance with Dan's family,  but more immediately, if Dan dies on his watch, Fa'Lina is liable to dangle him over the blender too.

Well, to be fair to Fi, Fi was coming down off of a bender at the time, so Fi might have... forgotten... a few instructions. And there were sandwiches too!

Although they had better have been pretty darn good sandwiches...   :mowcookie

Of course Wildy is upset about not being there and missing out on events.  You have to remember that her way of healing Dan is to hit other people with a stick.  Just imagine how she's going to feel when she hears about Regina.

Poor Fi, I hope he doesn't get blended. I know what it is like to be add and food is nearby, you forget things quick.

Forget Fa'Lina. What about destania?

Fa'Lina (who is, I think, more than capable of taking Dee down any day) sent Abel out of the Academy for the express purpose of guarding Dan, a task which he very nearly failed hard at, by relying on Fi not to screw things up.  I don't know to what extent Fa'Lina was able to predict this, given that it took place outside the Academy, but I imagine she is going to be less than happy at what happened, even though Dan appears to have survived.

Dee personally sent Dan to tackle DP alone, knowing full well that he could quite possibly fail and die.  (To what extent this was her being 'in character' for Biggs is unclear.  She may possibly have done this as a life lesson, e.g. "Get back to SAIA where it's safe, you nitwit")

However, while she probably would take DP out of the equation for good and all if Dan died, she can't blame Abel for this because she knew full well that the two of them were separated at the time.  And hell, Abel would have stopped her little game pretty sharpish if he was around.

Since no one else thought this was as amusing as I did...

I think the reason we got Abel being a sociopath in the last frame is due to the need for some hilarity, also nice to see Wildy again. I had been thinking I missed her antics.

I think you'll find it still counts as 'encoded'.  Without knowing the key, I managed to work out the gist of most of it but not all of it...

Hee hee hee hee hee hee! I knew at some point he was gonna find out and choke a 'Ci... heee.

I never noticed how Wildy's bangs curled like that before ... from the side it looks cool. Also, her climbing up onto the counter is cute.

And your Gungan is really well-drawn, Amber. I don't judge, they're probably a really fun race to play. :3

Yeah, because in Regina's Bio, it said she was most know for almost killing Wildy. She is going to be very mad that she missed get her chance to get revenge.
I'm back, and tired.

My theroy, 
1 part distraction to keep Dan for looking Dee, if Dan found out why Dee is in hiding he might do the same thing he did in twinks and charge in hot-headed to save his father from the dragons and I doubt they are as forgiving as Biggs would have been.

2 part stoping DP from returning to life, Biggs try to stop DP from returning and failed Dan has a few wins agains DP, logical anyone who could stop DP would be Dan.

Why you think that I don't know, since she can't even step out Twinks.

As for todays comic
I am interested to who told Alexis that Dan got hurt was it Kira or Loranda? Would Loranda have to tell her relationship with DP and Regina.
