I can't stop laughing at the toad god's expression in that last panel and I have no idea why.

I don't know, my money's on Klara just making the gambling thing up. Except she doesn't strike me as much of a liar -- she seemed to really struggle at passing herself off as the Queen to those summoned guards earlier. E: I've only just noticed that Audrey's reading a book called "How to run a tavern".

I love Trixie's expression in that last frame. 'For gently caress's sake, Audrey, just smile and nod along with her.'

The best thing about Audrey is how pleased she looks at almost every turn of events.

So the Scepter's actual power is that it summons a murderous ghost-baboon to kill whoever touches the gem! I knew those guys weren't on the level about it!

Wow, so Klara really was just bugging put and leaving Trixie and Lyndon in a room with a shapeshifter. Cold.

But the message suggests that just making it move is enough. The first we see of it is here: http://trixie.webcomic.ws/comics/81/ and it looks like Klara was the one to move it. So Klara runs off because she's the demon. Audrey sees herself being killed by Trixie because she and Lyndon think Audrey's the demon. Trixie sees herself being killed by Audrey because Audrey, having seen her vision, thinks Trixie and Lyndon are going to kill her.

Now there are two socialist candidates who are beating FemTrump so they need to split both of their votes. Although it looks now like the rest of the comic is just going to be us watching the Traditionalists eat themselves, which I'm ok with too.

The best bit about the politics storyline is that any time it starts to drag I just remember that a character is called Hank Genocide and start laughing all over again.

Synthbuttrange posted:Well if she gets arrested, the vote is less divided. True, but at that point Hank Genocide can simply stop supporting Filthmaster and Barbara Everdark can coast to victory. Rudolf Filthmaster is more on the ball than the old lady or the spider, but he's not a politician.

Funny, as 2017 began I was convinced that by now I'd be obsessively watching a Republican murder farce, and yet this was absolutely not what I expected.

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.

I think that tells us more about Audrey's personality than it does the muggers.

I'm fifty-fifty that Aubrey only said that to mess with Lyndon and make him have an even more difficult time with his magic.

New one! How did the Traditionalists find out about this? I'm going with either: 1. They have Trixie's apartment bugged. 2. Audrey is selling the Traditionalists information, so that she can keep on getting paid to go on adventures 3. Klara is giving the Traditionalists information, so that she has an excuse to keep hanging around with Trixie. My money's on 1 or 2, but 1 seems remarkably simple for Thorsby and if memory serves, Audrey now has all the money she needs for a bar.

Lyndon and Audrey are basically perfect for each other. With anybody else his status as an emotionally manipulative slimeball would be a deal-killer, but Audrey doesn't have any emotions to manipulate besides 'greedy' 'horny' and 'murderous'.

Also, all the characters who are floating are now in a position where they can fall safely. The only real problem is that I think the painter would land on Klara and Trixie.

I can't remember how long ago the Traditionalists visited Lyndon, but Audrey was kind of a liability during the bits of last adventure where the party weren't about to be murdered by Impossibles.

maltesh posted:There is absolutely no reason for the Traditionalists to keep their promise to Audrey, either. Unless Trixie wins, Audrey has no connections to demand they uphold the bargain, and if anyone but the Traditionalists win, there's not even a verbal agreement in place to make Audrey foreign minister. Well, no, but there is the whole 'murdering people with a big sword and not thinking the consequences through' thing Audrey has going on.

She clearly isn't a pacifist but there's nothing to stop a non-pacifist from using pacifist magic and just carefully making sure only to kill someone when they know they won't need any more spells.

Classon Ave. Robot posted:I don't really get how people think Brain Chip isn't a happy ending. The creation of a god who exists solely to make humanity more successful and happy at the expense of... what exactly? The humanity of a single person, the personal fulfillment of another, and our ability to elect people to start wars, commit genocide and destroy the planet for us? The reason a lot of people see it as an unhappy ending is that in the real world, any arrangement like that is entirely dependent on the person at the top not failing. The moment they demonstrate any sort of human failing, it rapidly slides into fascist authoritarian dystopia. TDBC goes to great lengths to emphasise that Aisha is immune to any human failings, but the real-world need to take such claims with a pinch of salt is so important that it's kind of understandable the reader would be dubious of them even coming from an omnipotent narrator.
