Looks like Byron is gonna have to take command of the Peacemakers again. Has he already?
Also in panel 4 I can’t tell, but it looks like Syr’s plate is meat and potatoes while Fr’s plate is a garden, are wood elves normally herbivorous, or is it just Fr? I seem to remember the elves hunting and having livestock, but I can’t remember actually SEEING them eat any meat.
I think it’s that Fr is eating dessert while Syr is still stuck at the main course, struggling to make progress even with her food under the workload. I recall a conversation during Syr and Byron’s foray into the woods of the Ur animals a few chapters ago: when she told Byron to kill the Dire Bear, Byron was kind of shocked and like “but… nature!” and Syr just laughed, explaining that wood elves don’t see killing natural beings as inherently wrong and that they too hunt for food. It all makes sense in context of one of their overarching philosophies revealed so far: “…and so we forgive when life consumes life in order to live”. Also, recall Fr’s internal monologue on Scipio a little while back; she finds the smell of roasting meat delicious.

Reminds me of when I was playing a mad scientist in a tabletop RPG–yep, had to end that session quick once I started making grant-writing checks. “Roll a d6…oh in 6 months you will get 20,000 double dollars to fund your research….”
Thus giving new meaning to the phrase ‘wax fruit’.
I always discuss the possibility of sex when practicing life or death combat.
Keeps me serene. And regular.
Re: alt-text:
Better yet, do Science to the stack of paperwork!
Do science to get through the stack of paper work.
Science up an assistant to take care of the stack of paperwork for you!
That science is the paperwork.
Combustion is science.
Centre panel. I’m so using that for a character inspiration image collection.
Actually, make it panels 2 through 5.
I was going to say, panels three as and five would be wonderful additions to the pool of random avatars.
Yeah, the next round of avatars will likely be very Syr’Nj-heavy.
dem unicycles.
Panel 6.5 is Byron discreetly sucker punching Pardo for coming onto his betrothed.
Thank you, Don Pardo!
Aww, he’s teaching her to dual-wield, I wonder if she taught him to photosynthesize.
Next on the agenda: placement of smart land mimes.
Oxymoron, right there.
We would anyone place ?
So… this didn’t work at all.
Why would anyone place , I wanted to ask!
But, how will you get them out of their boxes?
One word, Syr: Delegation.
Damn– didn’t even get my pants off. Boots, even!
That’s probably another reason for the tone of her response. She didn’t even get to the showing part of the loving.
Oh, panel five. She’s putting *so* much effort into suppressing that smirk that’s trying to claw its way free. XD

Panel 3: Syr’Nj, inventor of PowerThirst.
Panel 6:
“Yes. Female wood elves have grapefruits, and the males have nuts.”
“When do you harvest?”
“…”
AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE.
And in reply to panel three … truly, it MUST have what plants crave?
that’s brawndo.

Heh… as I looked at today’s strip, the Montage Song from Team America came into my head.

Wood-Elven bureaucracy sure kills a lot of trees.
I signed up for an experimental WoW account, but all I got was this crappy Second Life game.

Panels 2 and 3 MUST be made into a gif with the alt text.
Alt-text is my working day EVERY day.
OH NO! the wax is getting into her food.
