Poor Al'bert. According to a lot of my guy friends, they ARE terribly bored into oblivion by girl talk. Has she been lying on his lap?! Darn you Bactine! Al'bert is MINE!

Oh by the way i also love the red-haired elf's expression in the third panel.

Her lying in his lap is probably the only reason he put up with it so long.

After a solid three minutes of debating, I decided not to feel sorry for Al'bert, but to chuckle at his predicament instead.

I like al'berts reaction! six hours? id have snapped already. i like how bored he looks, and then revelas just how agitated he is.
whats wrong with geeves though? he didnt seem happy to hear the prince wants him by his side.

It kind of looks like one of those, "Crud, I'm going to die horribly" kind of expressions... can't be certain, though.

I think it's more of a... "He still trusts me after all I've done?" kind of look.

I think it's a "Hmm... what's for dinner?" look :D

Okay, you're just being silly. XP

I think he is one of those types that just likes... peace and quiet. He finally thought he had gotten out of the action... and then someone volunteers him to go on a dangerous mission during which he has to face two or more people who think hes betrayed them. I also think he feels remorseful when he is with Sangwine, although mostly subconsciously; however, this is the perfect chance for him to prove his loyalty. Geeves may be afraid that he will fail ... but mostly he just wants to be left alone.

My hypotheses anyway! ^_^
Zypher

Sounds pretty good... it rather matches my hypothesis as well. But of course, we're never going to learn the truth, cuz it's not actually all THAT important. Which means we get to have fun without our own pet theories. XP Funfun.

Ah but hypotheses help us understand better in our mind why a character acts as he does! *sage look* XD

Note to self, don't read Lint before anyone else is awake. I think I just woke the whole house laughing at that last panel...

I've had broken ribs. Six hours of listening to Bactine's yapping seems fair repayment for her healing them, BUT NOT ONE MINUTE MORE! (Am glad ribs are now healed, so it didn't hurt so much when I laughed my ass off at the last panel.)

I think that Geeves would rather be ignored. He's probably afraid to face Sangwine even though Sangwine seems to have forgiven him.
I would say poor Al'bert, but I think he's had this coming in some way or another. LOL! :D

Al'bert certainly held out longer than I would have. Impressive, especially for a man.

Ummm... This episode looks weird to me. Is it just me? It starts out normally the Geeves says: 'Yes?' And Kelneth replies: 'Will you defend your in the forest when he tried to hold my hand but that doesn't really mean anything...' That can't be right. It kinda looks like several panels have been crushed into one. Is it just me? Everything else seems normal.

It doesn't look like that to me...
Is your display messed up?

Mebbe, don't have this problem on anything else though. I tried saving the piccy, but it looks the same to me. Have a look and let me know this looks strange or not: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/amuletts...

Yeah, apparently guys can't take it for long. I know one who does, but that's because I only talk to him online so he can do other things without appearing to ignore me. XP Jeeze, it's scary how much I'm like Bactine. And Al'bert is prettier with short hair. Don't you agree Holly?
Holly
· 1 year ago
Why, of course! I've agreed that he is 'Hot with short hair' plenty of times in the comments of the last few pages. Hm...apparently the age of thirteen is the start of the 'fangirl' phase...

Yay fer updates! Anyhoo, I like how your characters will flop all over each other at any given moment, no romance necessarily involved (unless you have a REALLY surprising plot twist in mind involving Bactine and Al'bert). Also, that scene transition made me think at first that Sangwine, Geeves, or Kelneth was talking...you know, about 'he tried to hold my hand in the forest" and I had an enjoyable moment of "wait, wut?"

Geeves needs fangirls... I VOLUNTEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is totally hot on this page! (According to me, anyway, but I am demented.) GEEVES FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!! X3

oh no, I agree. But then, all the elves are prettyness. ^^ Thank you Colby for such an awesome webcomic!

I am not a fangirl (I'm a girl, but I don't gush over characters), but Geeves is without a doubt my favorite character. :D

Poor Al'bert! >:D This is, for him, the worst punishment of all, I think. My eyes would be glazing over, too, especially if I had stayed up all night not being able to go to sleep listening to a woman talk about her love (who happens to be someone else)! If I was a man, anyway... >_> Al'bert is very strong, to have borne it that long! *cracks up* I am so glad he is finally getting retribution for doing what he did. I think also that she is talking to take her mind off the pain....

Actually I think Bactine is talking about Xylic and what she should do now that Al'bert has revealed his deep abiding love for her . . . so, really, it's Al'bert's fault. Haha.

*dies laughing* Wow, I'm impressed. Six hours? Most guys can't take it for ten minutes. Then again, he is quite the womanizer... he's probably had practice... not to mention his ribs just healed and he was probably reluctant to work them by shouting. Poor guy. ... *furtively joins the ranks of Albert fangirls*
