There's also the fact that it takes longer for pymary and stuff to affect coppers, so he might not be feeling the full brunt of the Etalarche curse yet the way the rest are.

Ding. I think Mallory's just gearing up; it's not an accident that the Silver lieutenant was the first to take a run at Roger. The Jets are frothing, and the Coppers are getting there shortly. It's been a while since we've seen Will on the page; has anybody been able to figure out where he is? I got odds that his arm comes off Monday, or Wed if we skip the Monday update.

...it's very possible the effects of the curse just made Mallory say what he knew would hurt Roger the most, although I believe parts of that to be true. Very possible. But there's no way for Roger to ever know what was true and what was the curse, as far as Mallory's feelings towards him, and nothing changes the fact that he had to kill the man he loved. EDIT: Namely, I don't think it makes any sense for Mallory to lie about knowing the salt lizard before and sending her to Roger because Roger could get the government to curse him, while Mallory couldn't and was too scared to invite that upon himself. I don't buy that he hated Roger the whole time and was only manipulating him, because that's where it makes sense for the curse to be twisting his memories and perceptions - Mallory literally cannot be trusted in his perception or recollection of Roger while the curse is active.

Yeah, there's some truth in what Vamps said, but the curse was twisting him to say the most horrible possible thing to Roger. That curse don't gently caress around.

The bit about "you're a coward leading scores of people to their death while you don't want to suffer anything" seems based on very recent frustrations. It's likely that what Vamps said about Roger's reputation as why he sought him out is true because it predates any feelings that could develop. What I'm getting out of this is that the curse is able to effectively amplify all the things that ever bothered you about or turned you off from its target such that even if you know what it's like and it targets a person you love, it can still make you hate them.

Probably, but I suspect that part of the reason the captives have lost all sense of self-preservation is because they've basically got nothing to lose. They're bound and helpless and surrounded by armed enemies who have promised them a slow painful death, so a last desperate stab at taking ROGER FOI-HELLICK down with them has to look like a pretty good deal. I think under normal circumstances most people's reaction might be closer to Mallory's: driven to kill Roger, but willing to take their time.

Also worth noting the captives wanted to kill Foi-Hellick even without the curse. Leading the enemy army and all.

Can't wait for the reveal that the reincarnation thing is true and two-toes don't go to the khert because they're what people reincarnate into on their last cycle. Two-toes are already perfect.

Man, I love how spooky the curse has ended up being. Nobody knows much about it, it's got no visual presence at all, it's just suddenly everybody around this one person is filled with bloodlust and wants to kill the gently caress out of him, down to the tiny children you're currently footballing around.

Two things, Shaensigin- 1- Parallel between her and Prakhuta/Cutter/Delicieu/whatever that stupid lizard is calling himself now, chowing down on a former comrade in arms while the humans around them flip out and get violent on each other 2- Fairly sure Vampire is like the epitome of a GMO, there. Probably not a healthy snackaroosky.

I have to wonder what you expect to happen next in that situation. Like "Ha ha, I murdered their small child. Now the insanely powerful magic user and the experienced swordsman will.....not horrifically brutalize me to the full extent it's possible to make another human being suffer?".

I think she wanted the murderous child, who lost his value as a hostage after Duane disappeared her sword, A. Not in her arms, and B. Not somewhere he could actually kill Roger, perhaps while also distracting the two people bearing down on her. Though, uh, that's not how I would have expected one to accomplish that. Nor how I thought Will would end up losing that arm. Curious how he actually got out of there. Also if the Salt Lizard realized what she was being thrown before clamping back down, given that she can only see when her mouth is open.

I mean, Dhampir showed up after Duane was taken captive, so unless she specifically noticed the gag in his mouth while everybody was walking around she didn't know he was a caster. And since she's a well-established total rear end in a top hat, throwing Will to Shaensigin was probably meant as enough of a horrible distraction for her to either book it or pull out any anti-wright measures she has on her person. Plus, if they go to fight Shaensigin and maybe help the imperiled child, she's basically in the clear so long as she stays far enough away from Roger, who has definitely drawn aggro. She sucks as a person but this was some quick tactical thinking.

That's Vampire's leg, on that topic; she ate his body on the last page and hasn't chomped on anyone since then (except Will). Kind of an unsettling thing to think about, him going from a seemingly-important character we've seen multiple sides of, and who has a history with the Salt Lizard and was talking to her just pages ago, to nothing but food to her. Different thing regarding the Salt Lizard, this whole story started up because Duane wanted to get that Two-Toe grandmother to give him information about Ilganyag, in exchange for telling her about the time he met her god. We've recently learned that said meeting involved him dropping rocks on her head, and probably doing other painful things to her to get Will out of her mouth. Somehow I don't think this story is going to endear him to her. Not that she won't keep up her end of the bargain, that might still happen, but hoo boy, if she didn't like him before...

Two Tumblr questions answered by Ashley today, both about Shaensigin, on the topic we've been discussing recently:quote:Anonymous asked: Is the salt lizard made from 100% first materials or just the protective outer layer of salt scales? Would her insides be classified as "first living salt lizard flesh" or something? Or is she actually made all out of salt in various bizzare phases? quote:Anonymous asked: Is this vore?
