In this part of this state, it was recently really hot, but is now comfortable. Yay!

This is why you don't bring a beatstick on a recon mission. They're only good for frontal assaults.

:smallfrown: I'm sorry, Lex running away and literally bawling like a baby hurts my respect of him.

You'd probably do the same in his shoes.

Lexington's always shown to be rather emotional, he's watching Miles collapse before his eyes, and he just learned that his boyfriend is dead. Anybody would freak out.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
That's another reason not to bring him along, if you know he does things like that.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Doesn't Serrin have a skirt? And, if so, isn't she showing everybody her undies at the moment? Or even more interesting sights?
Edit: A really starched skirt?

1) It's a robe and could be held in place by proper knee positioning
2) 'Spider climb' implies the use of all four limbs. So she wouldn't be exposing herself in any case.
3) This is very very creepy >.> and i don't know why

By name, yes. By effect, no.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Generally don't people wear shorts or pants under a robe anyway?

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Maybe she's just a free spirit who is not shackled by convention. Maybe she's looking for a tumble with Lloyd (fat chance).
Edit: Also, creepy how? She's ten years older than me. She's practically a MILF.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Of course Serrin's wearing something under her robes and why do I even need to answer this?
(No offense, Asta; I'm not angry at you.)

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Whelp, it's official - paladins in general are horrible at deception. Both in executing it (Lloyd, Lexi) and in detecting it (Murphy, Lexi again).
Anyways, I don't think everyone truly realizes how much stress Lexi has been under. Sure, prior to this, he appeared to be on top of things emotionally, but in reality, he's got it worse than Miles.
Let me explain: he's a half-hobgoblin in a country who has always hated the Plavaan and is now openly going about killing others like him. Both he and his best friend are trying as best they can to help the situation, but obviously, nothing they're doing is even making a dent in the overall state of things. Despite all his work to save the Plavaan and Plavaan-touched, they are still dying in droves. Heck, he's likely friends with some of them, and yet he can't do a thing to help them! (Thornton, anyone?)
Miles has been distrusted ever since he first tried to expose Rust. However, Lexi has been held in suspicion for far longer than that - ever since his boyfriend, Lloyd, defected. This only adds to the level of emotional stress he has to deal with on a day-to-day basis. Now, his best friend, the very definition of analytic stoicism, is starting to fray around the edges and go downright paranoid.
However, he's able to sweep this all under the rug and put on a strong face because, even if he dies, even if he fails in his mission to save all those innocent lives, at least Lloyd made it out of Kago alright. He might not have saved the country, but someone he loves is still safe. Now, imagine for a moment what would happen if this emotional crutch is swept out from under Lexington. Oops, despite his best efforts, Lloyd is dead anyways! His actions might have even lead to Lloyd's untimely death.
Yeah. Now you can see why he's crying his eyes out. Frankly, I expected him to be more of a "whimpering in the corner" kind of crier than a "bawling his face off" guy, but if you look at how extensively he freaks out at some of Mile's comments in previous strips, I'm not that surprised to see him break down like this.

She's an elf.
Thus, by emotional maturity, she's jailbait.
Besides that, THE SQUICK.
Oh the SQUICK!

Half-elf. She's an adult although you're not wrong about her emotional maturity apparently. :smalltongue:

Have I told you you're amazing at analysis? Because you're amazing at analysis.
Okay, hopefully this time it will stick. Serrin is 41, almost 42. In human terms she's in her early 20s. Her personality demonstrates that she is extremely, astonishingly immature.

You should add a spoiler box to the top of the first post called Cast and have it be their name, race and class and maybe a few lines of biography, nothing that would ruin a later strip. Or maybe a short description of their personality.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
lol, poor Lexington. Also: I was under the impression that Miles was incredibly well-controlled, he seems like the kinda person I'd hope to have with me when things go nuts.
Yay Serrin! I miss her. :smallbiggrin:
