So many comics this week, and so interesting! I love to discover Ulrich this way. And I wonder what happens back up there meanwhile… Thanks, Aria, it’s great!

  Thank YOU! I’m still trying to get back up to the regular schedule so hopefully more comics will be going up a little faster around here.
  
  I’m so glad to hear you’re liking the story so far, I really appreciate it~

OK SPILL IT WEISS WHO IS LOTUS LADY?
Tain smells of overconfidence right now though, just saying.

I get the impression that Ulrich’s about to do something loud . . . is that an earplug in panel 1?
- Amaaré
  
  Pretty sure that’s his earpiece for his bugs that he just pulled out.
  - l33tninja
    
    oh, I forgot about that
    - Aria
      
      It’s all good, reading the comic page by page makes it easy to forget callbacks like this haha
  - Aria
    
    This is correct!

    Bugs? Did I miss something? Can’t remember any bugs…
    - Aria
      
      It’s been a reeeally long time so lemme help!
      
      WAY BACK on page 128, Ulrich handed Ellie a weird lookin paper flower. It didn’t seem like a big deal at the time. http://kiddcommander.com/?comic=page-128
      
      While Ellie was transforming she burnt up the trinket, which simultaneously caused some kind of disturbance in Ulrich’s left ear. http://kiddcommander.com/?comic=page-192
      
      So, here, we find out he has some kind of earpiece and we can make some inferences. I don’t think it’s like ULTRA CLEVER WRITING or whatever, but webcomic time is super super slow so some of this stuff gets lost sometimes! I hope this helps a little bit, I want folks to get everything they can out of my comic so please always feel free to ask more questions if anything’s ever unclear.

        Well, I remember that, because when he felt this disturbance I checked back to see again what happened with Ellie and the flower, but (maybe because English is not my first language), I don’t understand what are the “bugs” @Amaaré spoke about?
        And thanks a lot for your help anyway, it’s greatly appreciated!
      - Aria
        
        Ohh! “Bug” is slang for like a wiretap, like if you hide a microphone or a camera in a room to spy on somebody the room is “bugged.” I guess that IS kind of a nonsense term now that I think about it haha
      - caribouchat
        
        Thanks! I learned something today!
        
        I only knew about the bugs in computer programs. Well, also about the little things that fly or crawl, and are an enchantement to watch…
