Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

(Also, slavery was a thing for a very, very long time. I doubt you'd be able to say that *all* of those past societies had an anti-slavery strain. It'd be comforting to think so, but humans can be real [censored] when we put our minds to it. That's an aside, though.) I did qualify 'chattel slavery'...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

I don't excuse the things Eric's done. He *is* a slaver and a rapist, and those things are most definitely wrong. And yes, there are a few who seem to try to treat keidran more kindly (although Tom had something to say on the topic of Saria being anti-slavery). Well, even disregarding Saria, I brin...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

To be fair to Zen, while he was against it initially [...] he was able to be convinced to allow her to join him despite his (later proven justified) misgivings. I think this is a bit of a misstatement (see below, when I reply to Niara) You probably realize/meant this as well, but I'd like to stress...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

They were also faced with surviving, and rather than adopt the beliefs of his society, Zen disregarded them in favour of acknowledging Natani as every bit as capable as he was, when it came time to worry about finding ways to sustain themselves. Flatly untrue . It was Natani who made those moves, o...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

Like I said, this feels like a natural sort of conversational flow to me - not that they won't talk about this obviously important topic at some point, just that conversations often meander and get sidetracked. It does mostly -- I think the latest page transition with Zen was pretty painful on both...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

Ah, right, I forgot that they hadn't actually specifically discussed that yet. Eh, honestly, I'm ok with it for now. I'm sure they'll get around to it at some point, but the interaction feels natural this way. It's just one of those conversations where you get distracted a lot and jump around a bun...

This one, in the wider context of 'Natani'.

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

EDIT Also, anyone notice the unwrapping of the bandage in Panel 6? Perhaps, it's symbolic of unwrapping of a new (different) Natani. Symbolic of the new, more relaxed attitude, certainly. And also, belatedly, since I'm apparently really slow today, solid confirmation that they also spent the previo...

Re: Comic for August 21, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 4

It's somewhat starting to look like the whole main revelation is going to go unaddressed, and the fact that it's going to go unaddressed might also go unaddressed. A multi-room elephant :? Instead, we get the new status quo by way of seeing a Natani who is still -- though considerably less -- suscep...

Re: Comic for August 9, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 3

Late, I know, but the way I see it, it all comes down to Youngtani's statement, "I’m not a separate person". Because she's not a separate person, she doesn't need to *be* complete to *appear* complete - she's got the rest of Natani to provide that. If the 'normal' Natani is soul fragments...

Re: Comic for August 9, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 3

I guess there's the question of whether Young!Nat meant 'including Zen' when she said "our subconscious" I read it as meaning the two Natani. Likewise, when she says "If it weren't for me, we'd both be charred wolves by now", I don't think that includes Zen. Unless she means tha...

Re: Comic for August 9, 2018: Assassin Siblings, Catching Up, Pt 3

I thought it was a bit of a nothing page, but I suppose that's evidently not the case if it's generating discussion. But then, there's nothing new about the discussion, so maybe that's still true :P I guess I'll have to take Youngtani's word that she's just a fragment, even if I have no idea how tha...

He doesn't need to. While Zen might not have forced his way in to Nat's, Nat got all of Zen's in one big rush. Nat should know all about what happened with Carver.
But does Zen know Nat knows?
