Batter Up
*passes out* I need to stop doing anything that involves action. XD
Ah well. Wiglaf gets to actually do something for once.
Pair-a-Thon ending soon! Get in those entries! And Katuscon is coming up! Hope to see some of you there! :D
EDIT: ‘HMO’ should be ‘HOA’ – that’s a massive typo. XD *bangs head on wall* I will be fixing that as soon as I get home from work. As for why an apartment as a Home Owners Association to begin with…the owner of Springland Apartments is a weird, weird man.

Camlann better watch out, Bliss is stealing his signature wall-o-text.
Yeah, and turning it all pink too. Given we’re not sure what gender, if any, Camlann had but I bet having to use feminizingly pink walls of text from now on will also annoy Camlann.
There totally needs to be rant-off between Camlann and Bliss now.
Camlann is a he, liliy has stated so. And, the human form liliy designed for Camlann is a he.
Didn’t know Camlann was a he but, uh, a sword is a sword right? I thought they can’t have children.
yeah, Camlann’s a he, liliy’s mentioned it a few times, and in ustream sessions his “human” form is drawn(human meaning, what he would look like as a person/with a spirit form like Grace/Bliss/etc..), apparently looking like an 80′s David Bowie- http://liliy.deviantart.com/art/WaM-Ustream-Sketch-27-180312376
…Who said anything about swords having children? Obviously they can’t.
You called Camlann a he, instead of an it. If he can’t have children he’s not a he, he’s an it, right? That’s how I treat the subject of gender.
…Oh, well then, *shrugs*
Not to open a point of contention, but gender and physical sex aren’t necessarily the same thing.. just so you know. Not to say that you can’t have your own definitions and perceptions on the subject. I’d say that by most definitions Camlann still counts as a ‘he.’
XD Now it’s lackey’s problem.
Ooh, Wiglaf’s in TROUBLE. ^^
He looks almost surprised that Wiglav saved the day. =^-^=
yeah, but if you look it looks almost like Wiglaf smacked him in the face and stopped Bliss at the same time, pretty dang close lookin’ to me…
Fun fact: Liliy’s Mom grew up in the same small town as John Mellencamp, although she is a little bit younger so not classmates or anything like that.
Mordred lives in a apartment why would they go to a HMO meeting. If the apartment is a condo, they might go to a condo owners meeting, or perhaps a apartment tenants association meeting if not a condo.
This is an American thing so my knowledge is hearsay but that would depend on the insurance company, wouldn’t it? I would imagine it’s some sort of PR gesture to deal with the deservedly negative reputation such organizations have for their meddling, paperwork problems and care denial.
(For other non-Americans: HMO = health maintenance organization, a controversial form of private health insurance provider.)
Don’t pick on my dad for reading HMO as HOA. XD We acknowledged this mistake already at home. *points to correction*
Didn’t see the mistake or note a correction, HMOs are mysterious things to me I am glad I don’t have to deal with.
How often do they have meetings?
>.> The mistake is I meant ‘HOA’ instead of ‘HMO’ and my Dad already knew what I was referencing so he (like father like daughter) made the same typo of writing ‘HMO’ while thinking of a HOA- a Home Owners Association has nothing to do with medical insurance….I forget how often they meet in real life, though. Its like once a quarter or something. I should know though considering we’re technically part of one. XD
This… should go under “Crowning Moments of Awesome” or “Heartwarming” on the tvtropes page. I’ll do that in a few hours.
How come Wiglaf winds up the enemy of all the people who should like him in this? Boudica, Bliss, Driver… it’s turning into an instant dislike thing, rather than a delayed aversion.
Good question, KGJ. Another irony is that so many people seem to want to be Mordred’s best friend (Wiglaf, Driver, Bliss, Brat, Security, etc.), even though Mordred dislikes people in general and has little use for friendship. XD
It wasn’t instant dislike.
Boudica liked him just fine until he upstaged her at piano.
Driver liked him just fine until she realized he was competition.
And Bliss liked him just fine until he manhandled her.
There’s a trend here. XD
Go Lacky.
What I find funnier is that in all of these situations, it wouldn’t technically be difficult for Wiglaf to patch things up. Bliss may or may not be a lost cause simply because she’s ditzy and unpredictable, and she can’t interact with Wiglaf in return; but he could almost certainly get Boudica’s forgiveness if he tried. We know that Driver still likes Wiglaf some (since Mordred says she does, otherwise she wouldn’t call him Sugar) so if he also quit labelling himself as competition by teasing her about Mordred…
That was long-winded. XD But my point is, Wiglaf could make friends with them by correcting his screw-ups, it’s just no fun to have him do that. :D
He can’t resolve anything with Boudica because in one evening he showed her that her professional life and accomplishments as a pianist were meaningless next to his talent. She can’t hero worship him so all that’s left is bitter, jealous hatred.
The easy way for Wiglaf to make friends with Driver would be to stop trying to date Mordred and date her instead. Chances of that are slim, and other ways of resolving their romantic-frustration-triangle are few.
True that the options may be few but they are not zero. All driver has to do is realize that yes, Wiglaf is a guy. Guys are rather dense when it comes to relationships. So what are her options?
Since she is not a shrinking violet type, all those feminine whiles and machinations are just not her style. I am thinking she would be more a grab a bull by the horns, or in this case, a Wiglaf by the ears, and put things in no uncertain terms (all out of earshot / sight of Mordred of course).
Okay – I just want to see Driver do a Sadie Hawkins on Wiglaf and leave him gasping for air and possibly sanity :lol2:
Bliss doing her Camlann-esque rant with a wall of text is perfect. “Totally not cool!” XD
I love the orb turning round in mid-air and flying back furiously.
xD “Slam of Door” is somehow infinitely more menacing than “Door Slam”. I somehow feel like Don LaFontaine should be narrating all the sound effects in this comic. Especially “RETURN with a vengeance.”
And go lackey!
If only. *salutes Don LaFontaine* He was a good man.
RETURN! WITH A VENGEANCE!
Frankly, things are so much scarier when you add “with a vengeance.”
And Bliss could use all the help she could get in that area (=^.^=)
I assumed that the owner of SA is a weird weird man, considering he lets these people in his apartments.
Awesome page!
Wiglaf just became my second favorite character.
Woo~!
Go Wiglaf!!
That guy looks surprisingly like Hnaef. Actually, until I actually looked instead of just glancing, I thought he WAS Hnaef.
you ain’t the only one
Shhh! That’s the artistic style, don’t-cha-know?
You guys need to pay more attention. Their skin tones are totally different enough that you should have noticed it was a different person. *coughs*
See?
…Hnaef colors look like a faded version of Julian! XD I like Julian. I hope he makes more cameos. :3
it’s just the look of him really, speaking of Hnaef…where’s Security?…and i know i’ve pointed this out but what happened to Brat/ she’s been gone…what? over 2oo pages or more? (=~.~=)
correction 307 pages (if you don’t count the pinup on 272)
Very much looking forward to seeing how this conflict develops. :D
and btw, I don’t think it’s that hard to tell Julian from Hnaef. :) The resemblance hadn’t even occurred to me till someone pointed it out. I think you’re fine, design-wise.
I know. xD I’m just teasing back~
Just adding my two cents. :)
