Who needs ink when you can use swamp vomit. At least I presume it is swamp vomit, I've lost attention in what's going on. Mainly I'm annoyed that this is stringing out a magic reveal over a week when it could be over and done in a day.

Lol if Snout's copy-pasted "breakthrough" wasn't about understanding the dream realm stuff, but about passing the chandak's test so that she'd reward him with the next nugget of magical knowledge.

Everybody is so credulous and so profoundly incurious that when swamp spunk dripping off Snout's journal starts randomly giving them instructions their only instinct is to blindly follow them.

He wasn't even reading this, he was writing. It's his diary, the puke magic interrupted him telling us he is a food enjoyer.

Wow it's like Mookie is TRYING to find the most boring way to progress the plot. There's so many questions I have about this contrived situation but none of them really matter or will make it any better.

I figure it's either the next thing to find/place to go, or Mookie's thought of something for the chandak to say to Ink Witch.

Lool at snout just noticing the next page in his journal (which must loving reek) is much darker, soaked in swamp spunk and dripping magical ink, then I guess holding the page above her arm?

I thought they'd found the Asininepath book already but it was full of mystical gobbledygook that nobody could understand? Or was that something else? I keep losing track of this comic's non-plot-points. Drakyn posted:

Mookie confirmed a cliffhanger at the end of the week. How do you have a cliffhanger when there has been literally no tension or even coherent plot development?

The ink flares and erases the book completely, Snout & co having completed the equivalent of taking a USB stick that a sketchy guy gave you and plugging it into your computer. Bog lady shimmers as the illusion dispells in order to reveal Redactor.

I was going to say this is stupid, why would he write a book and dedicate it to Luna and then have the dedication/authorship hidden, but I'm going to guess that it's actually the work of the Redactor. Which is still stupid, but at least less so.

How the gently caress is it not general knowledge who wrote this book? How is the only possible way to find out who the author of this book is to combine swamp goop and ink magic? Is that just a normal thing? Hey, let's go back to Maltak and drip ink-goop all over every book, maybe we'll learn who "J. Deegan" is too!

He draws fingers like aloe fronds. I sometimes got wistful that Dominic Deegan was over, and so we were done, but now I'm not so sure.

Eraser Witch: Now I'll ~*redact*~ the dedication and byline. Mullet Guy: Uh...why not just blank out the whole book? Or we could just burn it or, I dunno, take it or something. Eraser Witch: I'm the REDACTOR. I REDACT things. So I'll just blank out these two bits. Mullet Guy: But why would they care that she's his... Eraser Witch: I REDACT THINGS!

I'm so glad we spent these last few months getting Snout to wonder how Luna was connected to Dominic so that the answer could be magically bestowed upon him within two pages by the person who got him to think about it in the first place. I'm amazed and dismayed by Mookie's absolute commitment to making sure that his protagonists never accomplish anything by their own devices.
