quit picking at it

Fascinating.
Hey, Artemis, you’re fine too.
Jon Baker

Maybe now we’all finally get an answer to the age-old question: “why did the checkien cross the raven?”
- Aria
  
  ’cause raven was bein a dumbass
A Wild Bird

SQUAAAAW!
Sage

Maggie… hm… want to know more about him(?)
but that brings up other questions, were those four the only ones on the ship or just the ones that were closest with each other. (Maggie, Crow, Jo, Raven) Maggie im guessing could be Magpie cause bird theme. Like that Phin is destroying Raven even in Raven’s own subconscious.
And i forgot what i was going to ask.
Love this comic so much =) hope you all have a good day
- Aria
  
  Birds all over the dang place, jeez

Is the rooster Crow, as in what would happen to Raven if he tried anything?
Or is the rooster Phin, and that’s what’s about to happen?

(PS: Called it on the scene shift. XD)
- Aria
  
  I would guess that the rooster is Jocasta~
  - Sandman366
    
    I wouldn’t expect her to tear Raven apart without good reason though. One good enough to make her find him to tear him apart, that is. Having to find him to kill him would probably be more than enough reason for her to kill him.
    
    Seriously, she is way too busy not giving a shit about much besides retirement in the middle of nowhere to bother doing much besides chew out Raven without a really, really good reason.
  - Sandman366
    
    *brain finally ticks over*
    
    Wait, how does that make sense? Roosters are supposed to be complaining at the Sun when it rises that it dares to touch it’s stuff, and she’s supposed to be a fire deity of sorts, so why would she care about the Sun? Not like she would have much to worry about from it….meh, whatever.
    
    Nice new profile pic, by the way. Ulrich seems entranced by something….that he’s possibly glaring at, though the lightning is obviously okay since he’s clearly looking over his shades.
Amaaré

Now that’s what I call direct symbolism.
Hazard really doesn’t seem to be the “moving on” type does he?
- Aria
  
  subtle storytelling has never been among my stronger skillsets
  
  also: oh, GOD no
  - Sandman366
    
    *rerererereads the comic more/again*
    
    Dear Aria,
    I don’t believe the first line of your comment, there.
    From: A bored fool with a rambling problem.
    - Aria
      
      That’s kind of you to say heeeee
      
      Also I do read all the comments you leave when you go back through the archive! I don’t always have a lot to say but I do appreciate all of them <3
      - Sandman366
        
        Actually, I suppose there’s two ways interpret that… You’re “not that good” at subtly compared to everything else, saying that’s not a very good statement could mean you are good at it compared to everything else, or I suppose it could just mean you’re that good at everything else that even if you’re not very good at subtly by comparison you’re still good at subtly.
        
        Haven’t the foggiest which it is, I’m still dazzled by it all. (And, y’know, doubt I’d mind staying that way….)
        
        Actually some of those comments I meant to get to on my last reread, just never got around to it. And I just reread things on my phone at work when on break, this is an easy pick for what to go through next.
Pedant

It stuck an extra o in there just to be sure.
- Aria
  
  It’s deliberately meant to be “looses”! Artemis speaks with a weird sort of colloquial drawl, so the word here was supposed to function as “let loose” while also implying that a ship that would let its crew’s secrets go is a loose ship as opposed to a tight one. It’s sloppy and inept, that sorta thing.
  
  I’m definitely known to make typos though, so I appreciate it!
Carcharadon

Well, that dirty laundry seems literally apocalyptic, so…
