10/06/2011 [PF #174] OMGWTF?!

What's Daryil doing that causing all those shocked stares?

Keaton feels like she's screwed, and Jakob seems to be feeling humbled. I wonder why.

What I'm wondering is how Daryil kept all those empty faux-soul jars hidden from the guards at the prison.

Well either they find out he hit Tri-wing status or he's giving them a private exhibition.

The delivery crew from Futurama had similar reactions to the Professor giving one.

Edit: Or I could see these faces being made to a similar situation as that.

Keaton: "I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead"
Assassin: "not my soul not my soul not my soul"

Even though they fall under the rule of overly long line gags, they are funny considering Daryil is the one breaking their minds (with just cause)
side note We didn't get to see his (unconventional) revealing. Part of me is happy while part of me is saddened.

Side note: The "I'm sorry I broke your mind Mr. Assassin" lollypop is missing.

I must say that I like the dual colored wing scheme going on.

And Keaton's overall reaction here amuses me....

Also, is that a bird with a scarf flying behind Jakob in the fifth panel?!

Not only did this make me laugh, but I quite agree the Assassin really does need a lollipop.

Yeah, originally this was going to be a 12-page chapter. But I decided I had to insert the scene where Daryil explodes in the desert, and each chapter has to have an even number of pages, so I padded this scene out to two pages.

Hmm....

That is the 'scarf hawk'. It turns up from time to time, usually when someone is flipping out. Its first appearance was in chapter 2, I believe - which did actually make sense. Since then it has occasionally cameoed for no obvious reason.

Which reminds me, I need to show the outtake.

Tapewolf · June 11, 2011, 08:57:37 AM

Okay, you talked me into it. You'll probably need a force a refresh, though.

Also, this is the original version of Ashley's panel, prior to me editing out the unwanted extra:

...one of us is taking the pony thing far too seriously.

The easiest way for someone with mental powers to do that would be to stop the guards from being able to consciously realise they are there. Then you don't need to conceal them at all.

The larger question is why they didn't restrain Daryil's powers properly.

Wow. That totally changes the meaning and phrasing of that old saying.

Hahaha! See you later! Sucker?

I'm hoping he did achieve tri-wing status. At least Keaton's "I'm Dead." thoughts would make sense.

Gabi · June 12, 2011, 03:11:12 PM

*Laughs at the outtake.*

Also, I've seid this before, but I like the Scarf Hawk.

I don't think it ever made much sense, though. It's just one of those cute, silly things that I find funny.

Arrith · June 13, 2011, 12:02:05 AM

heh
You added the 'sorry i broke your mind mr. assassin' lollipop didn't you?

llearch n'n'daCorna · June 13, 2011, 09:21:28 AM

He did. It should be in a glass, I think. Either that or clutched in his hand, and I think that that's slightly wrong in tone.

Just dropping them on the ground seems wrong to me.

... but that's just me. ;-]

Daryil probably gave it to the assassin, but he dropped it afterwards.

Tapewolf · June 17, 2011, 04:55:49 AM

Just as a heads-up, Ren has recently started a job and this is liable to impact the comic schedule. Early days yet, so we'll see how things go when he's got into more of a routine. It might mean rearranging the update day or working a week in advance or something, we'll have to see.

Assuming his internet connection doesn't die (as it often does on Fridays) I'm hoping to have the final page of this chapter up on Saturday or so. But it's a village weekend again so if he doesn't give me the lines by this evening, I probably won't get them until monday, and that would cut it rather fine with the Anthrocon journey and all.

EDIT: Should have it ready sometime Saturday.
