Girl Genius IV: Because SCIENCE! is my mistress

Oh ho, Zeetha is getting hints about her Destined Battle with Bang. Exciting!

So, how many pages before Phil starts throwing in Pirates of Penzance references. I would not be surprised to find that he is a fan of Gilbert & Sullivan

[dogmac]

Gate now open...

If so, does this make Agatha Mabel or Ruth?

[datalaughing]

You know, I begin to think we need a spinoff detailing Gil's adventures in Paris.

Time for fanfiction? I think so.

[Felius]

Aye. Such spinoff would greatly please Felius.

Also, well, at least Gil is a good liar isn't him?

[Xel]

So do we think the last panel is Gil just trying to confirm his earlier guess that they would try to kill Der Kestle, or has he forgotten that bit. I'm guessing he'll end up leading the whole group off to "kill Der Kestle" with some sneaky plan to do something else completely, but Agatha will hear that part of it and more hilarity will ensue.

[Gez]

but Agatha will hear that part of it and more hilarity will ensue.

I expect that as well.

he would have to get rid of Zeetha and Krosp before we get any real chance of hilarity, Agatha isnt stupid.

[Karellen]

You know, I'm really glad Zola ran into Gil. If it had been Tarvek and/or Agatha, she would have been liable to end up dead in a variety of unpleasant ways, but as it stands... she's simply much too funny to die.

[slayerx]

Man, i love it, that last panel really does scream "playing her like a fiddle"
Things are going so smoothly that you do know that something will pop up to ruin the day for Gil

Fanfiction on Gil's adventures in Paris?
Nah i think i'd rather get some fanfiction on "The Adventures of the Mad Gil Pirates!"

[Deus_e_Machina]

Written by Zola "I'll show them all!" the chorus girl?

[HandofShadows]

I fully expected Gil to do what he is doign right now. But I get the feeling it's goign to REALLY blow up in his face as Agathat will show up and see Gil "interacting" with the face and she will REALLY blow her top. Funny things ensue.

[Mauve Shirt]

Wow. When Agatha finds Gil hanging out with Zola.... explosions will happen. Hopefully they will be in a part of der Kestle that's on her side!

[battleburn]

I love this one.
Gil should be in a heterodyne show, the way he is playing Zola.
And he is unknowingly giving away information for Zeetha about Bang, bringing that awesome showdown one step closer.

Also, the abandoned toy shop off place Maubart somehow makes me curious, sounds like a nice noodle incident

Y'know i was thinking about that, but then you have to consider the fact that zeetha and possibly Krosp are also in on the act aswell... though then again, what with how things have panned out with the misunderstanding over Gil's little show outside the castle, it does seem like it would set up to things turning out badly at first and then getting patched up later

[seedjar]

So, would it be safe to assume that Zola is unaware of Gil's sparky-ness? Otherwise, she probably wouldn't be making such a big deal about Gil barging into the castle. (Or maybe she's just that self-absorbed.) I'm fairly confident that Zola isn't a spark... although I'd need to do some checking to be sure.
I'm really beginning to like Zola. I hope she doesn't have to go the way of the devil dog.

Gil openly discussed sparky ideas with friends in Paris, so she probably does.

In fact, I suspect that Zola is the girl Gil is talking about here. But that's my TFHA Theory, due to the Law of Conservation of Detail

[Xel]

Except that Zeetha quite enjoys hilarity and innuendo, and is likely to exacerbate the issue, whether it's deliberate or no. And Krosp is antagonistic toward Gil, so he's likely to make things worse as well. Agatha isn't stupid, but she does jump to conclusions.

All in all, it's shaping up to be very entertaining.

Considering Gil had "quite the reputation" i'd say it was more correct to say Zola is ONE of the girls he's talking about there

i really dont think its Bang Zola is talking about, i cant see being connectet to her would drive him so desperate to hush the story down, i think its more likely that the sentence was suposed to end in -used to date.

no, Agatha would know that when Krosp and Zeetha is not actively trying to stop him, then any talk of killing the castle would be a ruse.

[dogmac]

Surely I'm not the only one who has a secret wish that Zola turns out to be a monkey girl?

[Gez]

I don't see her with a tail, but that lock of hair looks like it could be prehensile...

[dogmac]

"The island of the monkey girls" would be a cool name for a nightclub, actually.

I dunno... how many crazy pirate girls can one story support? I think Bang's answer would be, "There's only room in this story for one of us!"

[Aidan305]

Of course, Bang isn't the only crazy pirate lady we've seen.

[Oracle_Hunter]

Of course, Bang isn't the only crazy pirate lady we've seen.

Well, those are Bang's crew; presumably none of them would try to usurp her position as the story's Crazy Pirate Queen.

Is... is that tattoo a Jager in a pointy hat with a pentagram?

[HandofShadows]

Probably none of them would be stupid/crazy enough to try.

[slayerx]

Ya, not to mention, looking at the cast page, you can probably bet good money that that pirate girl, and the rest of Bang's crew are probably nameless... unless you count names along the line of "Tatoo'd pirate girl" as a name.. "Tatoo'd Tori" maybe, but definatly not "Tatoo'd pirate girl"... really it is ridiculous to assume that anyone of those nameless characters that could not even be mentioned on the cast page could even think of being described as the "crazy pirate girl" that Gil was in touch with on occasion instead of Bang
