OOTS #642 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up. (Erfworld, too.)

[Szilard]

Wow... just wow.

[The Bookworm]

I'm crying. Literally, I'm crying.

[The Guardian]

Well I figured it had to last a little longer, at least to get the Teleport in.

[Salty]

Wow. I can't help but feel disappointed in V.

[enarch3t]

Very sad comic. But, V's really gotta get the Order back together now that she's got the power.

[Siosilvar]

Just when I refresh, too.

V's really experiencing moral crisis, although that's to be expected with demons/devils/denizens of the lower planes in you. (Well, equally powerful arcane spellcasters of just as much evil, but still...)

[The Blackbird]

...I am...sorry. I still have to fix everything.

Damn here cried myself.

[chiasaur11]

Wow.

Someone isn't using their INT to its full potential.

Oh, and bets on "V flays V's family"?

Seems you were off on that one.

[Ridureyu]

Yeha, we were off.

Now, bets on "V only did it to save the family?" Totally off, as well.

[R. Malcovitch]

Understandable. The superpowers were gotten for the purpose of saving her family, but now that V has them it would be foolish for her not to use them to do everything she was trying to do originally.

[Assassin89]

We know that the actual name of V's make is Inkyrius. I wonder if V will later reconcile with her family? The question is where is V going? To back to the fleet or to Greysky city?

[Surfing HalfOrc]

Wooot! Just about to go to bed, decided to check OotS one last time, and I get a double!

And at least one more cliffhanger to this arc. V's next move is??? Revealed in 3-7 days!

[malakim2099]

Very sad comic. But, V's really gotta get the Order back together now that she's got the power.

Assuming that is what V is going to do.

Not good though. Very not good.

[Teatime]

Nice. First time I've been on the site while there was an update. Also, first time I think I've posted on the first page for a new comic thread.

Same. Good comic, Giant. Too bad Vaarsuvius can't just teleport back and say, "Haha, April Fools!"

[BarGamer]

OotS and Erfworld update on the same day? BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT, EVER.

Were I not running on 3 hours of sleep and willpower, I would be TOTALLY freaking out. V almost hurts his mate, doesn't release the power, and leaves with very few words, also to "save" his friends. I seriously think that Durkon will tearfully but firmly 'Holy Smite' V, in a vain effort to spare V's soul more torment than necessary.

PS: Seriously, it really is my birthday, no fooling. Thank you in advance for any "Happy Bday" wishes.

PPS: Thank you, SO SO MUCH that you didn't post an April Fool's comic. Seriously. The jokes, puns, and other hilarity, not to mention the drama, are more entertaining than any cheesy prank.

Respectfully, your fan, BarGamer.

[Laughing Dragon]

Great comic!

Well, we all really knew that V was doing this more for hirself than for anyone else. S/he will probably try to perform redemptive acts in an attempt to lessen the psychological impact of hir mates' ultamatum.

I hope that V and hir family can reconcile at some point ... but in true adventuring style ... the party comes first.

[The Blackbird]

Wait, what if this is all a dream as part of a... APRIL FOOLS!...

Naw I'm joking.

[Starknight]

Oh Dear, This is bad.

I don't think that V even knows about Greysky City. Unless I am mistaken, V does not know about Cloister because presumably s/he has not tried to contact Haley recently. Going back to the fleet would be backtracking in V's mind, I don't see hir doing that. My prediction is (since V pretty much admitted s/he is holding on to the Soul Splice out f a desire ofr power), V will try and take out Xykon. Even as powerful as V is now, I don't know if s/he has enough power to do that. V is really racking up the Fiendish Flyer MIles now.

[Axl_Rose]

APRIL FOOLS! *new vesrion of 642 pops up*

lol, nah.

So I wonder who V is going to "fix" next.

*fingers crossed for an assault on Zykon*. Hope he doesn't kill Tsukiko immediately tho, I think she's got some potential, to quote Sabine, "evil potential".

Or perhaps he'll just appear on the boat and resurrect Roy. I guess he's been due for a revival for some time now haha.

[Virgo]

I suspect that the integrity of V's family is the terrible sacrifice that must be made to reunite the Order.

[Raging Gene Ray]

The Soul Splice is something that V can't walk away from without being somehow changed forever. Kyrie might've managed to nudge that change towards something for the better. V is experiencing guilt over something besides not being powerful enough and might be realizing that there are more important things than arcane might.

[Porthos]

I know I've been saying this a lot but...

Oh, V. You idiot.

[Nevitan]

ooooh, well.. huh I was kind of hoping to see more of kyrie.

Oh and did anyone notice they were speaking common in this?

[Warren Dew]

I know I've been saying this a lot but...

Oh, V. You idiot.

Vaarsuvius is an idiot for putting the fate of the world ahead of a personal relationship, even with a spouse?

[Yendor]

Bad V. Bad, bad, bad V.

[Tobimaro]

I'm just wondering how Durkon and Elan are going to react when they see V (I believe that is hir destination)?

[Porthos]

Now that I've gotten my sadness over V out of my system, I just noticed something. Neither Ganonron nor Jephton the Unholy know what sex Inkyrius is.

"Burn it"
"No, snap it's neck"

Well, I found it humorous at least.

[DrivinAllNight]

poor poor V, still guilt ridden over not finding Haley, Roy and not being able to save all those other people. This is gonna come back on him badly.

[The Blackbird]

Vaarsuvius is an idiot for putting the fate of the world ahead of a personal relationship, even with a spouse?

Well, uh, ya.

Exactly. Screw the world, I'd save my loved ones.

I'm not being serious just so you know.
