Love Lorenda's expression in the last panel...

Wow, for the first time in a good while, an update sneaks up on me after I checked my comic links. ...I totally have to stop getting up hours before noon xD

Poor Jyrras, one tends to forget that pretty much the entire post-SAIA event chain most likely happened fairly recently in the continuity. Not having the time to stop and think is possibly the worst-case scenario for a thinker like him.

And personally, I'm more of a fan of panel-1-Jyrras in terms of expressions - Lorenda reminds me of the strip where Mab and Lorenda notice him flying past in the background, but in a good way, of course. :)

Now the question is whether that last line was for the pity effect or genuine?

Well, it's one of the few remaining items on his "Things that can put my world upside down and flush it down the toilet" list, so it may be resignation... (although I personally go with "genuine insight"... especially since "Insight" is the comic's title :P)

I think the real question is whether Lorenda even wants to be friends any more...or if Albanion has jiggered the books so that Jyrras will have something to lose.

The last frame was awesome. Finally Jyrras throws down a shocker to someone else.
After a long time, some things change. Some things don't. And I still love Regina!

*Charline hmms*  I can fill in the rest of Lorenda's speech! 

Ahem:  Sorry Jyrras, I just want to be friends, but demon cows don't really have friends so I'll just eat you instead.  Om nom nom nom!   :mwaha

Er, wait... then I don't get to eat him.   :<

*Charline noes!*  I can't pass on him!  He's the poor victim everyone is supposed to pity!  I MUST send him to a dismal end in my tummy!  It is my duty as a cruel and evil villainess!   >:3

Lorenda's reaction in the last panel was great :giggle

Personally I think she's gonna say the exact opposite of what Jyrass is expecting.
Once upon a time I actually posted here.

(And to not derail the thread further: Lorenda's little "Wait... what?" moment made me snickergiggle. Jyrras surprising someone instead of constantly being surprised ftw!)

I honestly didn't think you could make a cow look as good as she does in panel 2...

And just think - this isn't Amber spending days working on getting it right, this is one day's output in a four-times-weekly strip.

I'm -scared- by how good she has drawn this one frame. ;-]

Let Lorenda eat him, then eat her.

Jyrras didn't become a successful scientist due to his lack of powers of observation.

I agree.

Caswin

So, is Lorenda's reaction a "but I don't want to be just friends" one or a genuine overall "wait, what?"

Yap yap.

 Don't have much to add but the general 'good comic' and to wait with the rest of you to for the next lines after 'wait what'
