gently caress, what is a slurd?

Much easier to discover than fire, and only slightly more difficult than water.

What they learned of the made-up languages is obviously going to be critical to the upcoming dungeon walk, but I must confess I can't figure out how.

I wonder if it got shown a different death every time because the previous vision meant it was able to avoid that death. That'd be even more traumatising I think.

Mya not be a shapeshifter. May just want to kill him in the belief that this will undo the candyfication spell.

So Klara saw Trixie kill her, Trixie saw Audrey kill her, Audrey saw Lynton kill her, and presumably Lynton is going to see Klara kill him.

And it's all completely circular and there are no traitors/shapeshifters at all.

I wonder if it will always be Audrey's fault?

This was an instantaneous spell. They're now nonmagical candy and will be forevermore.

So, did the safe bust open when it hit the bottom of the tower?

But we all know that whatever new spell he's learned is going to result in Julius's death.

It seems I may have been misjudging this town?
I thought it was the sort of place where you could just carry a corpse through the streets.

By the time they come back upstairs the escaped snake will have bitten someone else.

Too soon. First someone needs to throw the bananas at someone (thinking it's the snake).
Several strips later, then Klara can throw the actual snake.

Klara thinks Audrey is smarter than her. Interesting.

Whybird posted:

Yeah, I think the muggers just use the names and vocabulary of the people they've stolen for convenience, but that's all. Trixie's mugger isn't advocating socialism because it believes in it -- it's advocating socialism because it has access to Trixie's knowledge of political theory and knows how to use it to bring down a tyrant.

Audrey-mugger is very Audrey-y though

Lyndon probably still has his spell. He didn't kill anyone, after all.

Zinkraptor posted:

Nah, he still enabled the mind mugger to kill someone. It's like when he lost his powers after he trapped that monster with a conjured wall and Audrey killed it.

Pacifism magic only breaks if you harm somebody with your magic. Lyndon's knowledge of magic contributed to the harm, but the actual magic was being done by Lyndon-mugger.

So, it's a conspiracy and Samantha was never insane in the first place? Very interesting.
Or maybe the Diabolicans just didn't want an insane queen.

Or she was in the asylum for claiming to be the queen.

That one's probably a hallucination, since they were primed to see it by the doctor's words.

Could've just maimed them. They'd be wondering why they had peg legs in their death visions.

But letting Aubrey doing that would have resulted in Aubrey attempting to kill them, and since we know they didn't die that means her attempt must have been would have failed.

Depending on how the spell interacts with curvature we could have orbiting zombies.

I was just wondering this. If it's "absolute" magical force capable of ignoring gravity entirely, they're just going to fly in a (relatively) elevating straight line for a while and then zoom directly into the sky and off the planet, into space.

This is a pretty dangerous spell!

OTOH if it rotates how you experience gravity by 90° then they'll stay the same altitude as they orbit the planet forever.

Found the loophole.
"The law says that if you're in prison you can't be president."
If they stage a jailbreak, she's not 'in' prison and isn't disqualified.

I wouldn't class the endings of Transdimensional Brain Chip and Hitmen for Destiny as 'happy'. Bittersweet? Deeply ambiguous? Not happy, though.

Hitmen-for-Destiny was happy-ish. Except for the hitmen themselves.

I wonder what we've got left. Thorsby's good at these endings where things work out not quite as the characters intended, but still OK.

Hiring Trixie as a secondary advisor possibly.
