              Technically it should be Homo sepians, the second word is never capitalized.

    Frigg’s Power comes from the belief that she is totally pissed off. And the belief that she is going to kick some ass.

    In hindsight, perhaps playing God is a thing best left to the professionals.

    Philosophical Hotline: HOW may I assist you? Can you be assisted? Is it morally right to assist you when you might be capable of assisting yourself?

    Daedalus: I created a universe.

    PH: A universe?

    D: Yes.

    PH: Is that the problem?

    D: No…not exactly.

    PH: Then what is the problem sir?

    D: The tiny little people living in the universe I created are debating my existence…it’s making me uncomfortable.

    PH: …I may need to transfer your call.

    “Straight as a wand.” Good one. Though the piece of wood next to him and Bandit looks pretty squiggly…

    Maybe I’ll use that phrase the next time somebody asks me about my sexuality, and just let them wonder. ^_^

        aha! The coloring/shading fooled me, too. In fact I hadn’t quite noticed that Bandit was braiding his hair, I thought she was just messing with it.

    “Say ‘please.’ ”

    Also, E-Merl is totally just sayin’ that because he knows his bro Scipio is too shy to speak up for himself.

    When Scip’s and Gravedust’s secret love affair is revealed, the world will be rocked, I tell you.

      It’s called transitioning, cutting between scenes is less of a jolt if you pan away before changing the scene.

      Also, in this case, it serves the nice double purpose of informing us that Byron and Syrnj are back, without needing to break the dialogue.

      I think E-Merl is comfortable enough in his sexuality, overall, to allow a cute little gnome, also known as mini-boss, to braid his hair. Now if Scipio was doing it, he might be slightly more adverse, if only for the reason that Scipio would have to be insanely toked up to braid hair and if he’s that far gone, he might try biting off your ear or something else horrifying. Though I personally think Scipio is man enough to braid another man’s hair, I think he wouldn’t bother because he’d never need to do it to prove that to himself. Or something. XD
