[The Giant]

Sorry about that, I forgot to leave time for translating Haleyspeak.

It should be a fairly easy translation this time, I practically gave it to you...

[Bilbo27]

Ahhh, elan and Haley at dinner. They didn't meet Roy and celia though. Maybe later on. Great strip

Wow--edit-- 1st page and 1st post--that is sssssooooo awesome. Sorry Haley, your curse isn't broke yet.

[DragoonStar47]

Great comic!

EDIT: YESS!! Second poster!

[FruitOfTheShroom]

Awesome. Hahahahha I love how Elan is just blissfully unaware of everything around him... Hahahahhaha

[Darkspear]

Yeah! Good job, Giant!

*Waits patiently for someone else to translate Starshine speech*

[TheWanderingLlama]

First Page! SO cute! Haley obviously had the same idea we all did... ;D "..which secret is causing the problem?"

[mdsoze]

I love it. Watching Haley figure out which secret she has to reveal is great. That, and Elan's child-like innocence at what's going on around him is great.

I wish Haley luck in getting this worked out.

Love IS an epic level challenge, and so is revealing your past to the one you love.

EDIT: I translated Haley, so it may as well go here.

Panel 3: Elan, I'm in love with you.
Panel 5: Elan, I'm in love with you. Completely in love. Love, love, love, love!
Panel 7: My dad is being held ransom by an evil dictator. I'm not really in the thieves guild anymore.
Panel 9: I cheat at solitaire. I have a tattoo you've never seen. I kissed a girl once. OK, OK, more than once!
Panel 11: Elan, it turns out I may not be exactly what you would call -

[AdInfinitum]

Gha! Too...much...translation...

(You know that moment at the climax of the Buffy episode Hush? It's like that...)

[Genome]

"Look, the salt and pepper shakers are fighting!" That sounds like something I'd do on a date. ;)

[TheWanderingLlama]

Yeah! Good job, Giant!

*Waits patiently for someone else to translate Starshine speech*

I'm working on it now, this one should be pretty easy, the first thing she says is obviously "Elan, I'm in love with you."

ETA: First page again! Wow.

[HypnoticMonk]

ok I went to bed... but I couldnt sleep until I checked just ONE more time...

Awesome strip(as usual)

(and a self ^5 to me for getting on the first page)

[Jonathan327]

Cute, awesome, and hilarious. Can't wait for the next.

[Bitterbadger]

I like this one. It must be tough for Haley, living like this for so long.

[Winged One]

Ah, poor Haley. I know I've got a lot of characters who'd take their secrets to their grave if they had the choice. Which, of course, they never do. ;D

EDIT: hey, first page.

[Arachnophile]

Please, please please someone translate Haley for me! I can't do cryptograms to save my life!

I love the fact that Haley is randomly trying secrets because she can't figure out which one is causing the problem! Great comic giant!

[Leo_Forestclaw]

Wonderful, just wonderful...

OK, quick, someone less lazy than me finish up the bits of Haley's speech that ... well, that I'm too lazy to translate.

;-)

Go team!

[Vaarsuvius_Prime]

Salt-Pepper conflict!

[Jeramiahh]

Haha, awesome. I knew it wasn't going to be THAT easy!

[Zora]

Wow, in the time it took me to login, this went to 2 pages.

Great comic as usual. Keep up the fantastic work!

[Redwizard26]

second page... great comic though...I wish she would get over it already...though it is absolutely hilarious...absolutely Ironic

[Balthor]

Page 2 YES!!!! And this is going to take a long time to translate. Well off to the what Haley said thread!!!

Hey! Wheres the Thread?!

[metalphil]

Ahhhhhh.. the suspense is KILLING me.

[The_Bandersnatch]

Cool, great comic. The Salt vs, Pepper was good... Now I REALLY have to find out what the cipher/code thingey means...

[ARMOURERERIC]

"Look, the salt and pepper shakers are fighting!" That sounds like something I'd do on a date. ;)

You should see what I do with the kiddie game placemats.

Eric

[humanpylon]

So the comics been up all of 10 minutes and there's already 2 pages of posts.

It's too damn late to decode the cryptogram. anyone more awake than me got it already?

[JustyUekiTylor]

Great comic. All I can say is: C Tech Astronomy.

[Flak_Razorwill]

I have never wanted to punch a wall more in my life right now.

[jmaccabeus]

Why does Haley's speech in this one remind me of Czech or Polish? I guess it's just the way the letters are together. (Strc prst skrz krk...)*

*Goes back to fighting with the salt and pepper shakers*

*Darn forum software, not able to show the first c correctly...

Nice cliffhanger, Giant. I forsee some Haley gender debates in the future.
