Re: A Chorus of Stars

I'm impressed with Greywind pulling Vetinari Job Security as the means to remain in charge.

Still I think they collectively underestimate both the Confederacy and humanity resistance to be "domesticated" by Loroi.

Re: A Chorus of Stars

"Ben,” Greywind’s voice was full of dread. “What have you done?”
Oh no, your majesty. Don't blame the human kid for the mess YOU and your team have created.

Congratulations 🎉! The experiment was a success. You got what you asked for (albeit maybe not you you meant to :lol: )

Greywind asked, >Tempo, is there a problem?<

>Yes, Azerein. Ben has been injured.<
Time to test Greywind's newfound mommy bear instincts.

Do Loroi care that much about grammar? I assumed they consider spoken and written language secondary to Sanzai.

Again, there is a reason most animals have their brain inside the head: proximity to sensory apparatus and thus quicker response to stimulus.

Re: A Chorus of Stars

Let me guess, at some point Rainlash will make a very ill-advised comment or move regarding Ben, and Greywind will react accordingly to her newfound motherly impulses..

Re: [Wolf329] Fanart - Charge of the blue platoon

That would explain the odd interest in Alex, and Beryl being uncomfortable with both of them getting touchy.

One wonder the Senzai chat between them.

For what little we have seen, I can actually believe Stillstorm being pretty austere and avoiding excessive luxuries despite her rank.

Re: A Chorus of Stars

I wonder how the human governments are analyzing and preparing themselves for the upcoming war. Loroi seem very outspoken about humanity being nothing but beasts and, for some of them, pets just waiting for a leash under a firm Loroi's hand. Wouldn't be a shame if Eternal Endurance's activities were...

Complements to Arioch... you did good there with the alien way of speech... Yes. 114 is one of my favourite pages, both for the dialogue and the art. It wouldn't work nearly as well if Talon spoke standard English. I know this has been discussed before, but why was Beryl bothered by the handshake? ...

I think the Earth government realizes that if a blind, fleeing ship of refugees can stumble on them then an organized military force possibly pursuing those refugees can find them.
A good point. Again, Alex is just following orders and hoping for the best.

Wonderful, thank you.

I wouldn't want to be in Alex' situation and explain them about Human physiology and psychology right now.
Similar to male Loroi, actually.
Except that, according to Beryl, they require frequent mating encounters.

Re: Happy Independence Day

Yeah, it's a pity we're not going forward with a unified Europe. Vive l'Europe! Instead we're seeing Europe getting more and more egocentrical, and blaming the European Union for everything.

It's a sign of how evocative your art is that I can see how the characters have evolved since then. I don't mean just in appearance, but in terms of their, er, character.

Yeah, its almost like there's a Historian construct in the room, sans the humor. ;)
Alex has a keen sense of humor, but he doesn't dare use it. His brand of humor could get him killed.
Alex just discovered Fireblade's own brand of humor, and decided he didn't want to become the punchline.
