    So, does Byron really have better aim than Gravedust, or was that just an ax-ident?

      I don’t know we’ll just have to axe him.

        It certainly looks like he cut it fairly close.

          Gravedust probably would have beat him if he could get a grip on his quivering problem.

            Don’t bring Gravy into this pun-off, or he might get short with you.

              I just think that without aid of spirits he didn’t stand a ghost of a chance.

                Oh don’t you start. For all you know his loss is haunting him right now.

              Hey, after what’s happened to him and his people, you can’t blame him for being high strung.

                True, but he should really learn to let loose every now and then.

                  If there’s plan to improve his aim, I’d wager he’d already have hatchet.

      I’m afraid Gravedust will have to bow to Byron’s superiority.

          I’d settle for them just quitting the whole ask-to-axe one.
          That one was old the first time it was used. Now you’d need a pickaxe to unearth it.

    Today we learn that Gravedust is capable of one additional emotion:

    Envy.

    Hmm… There’s some plot going on with cultists and our resident spiritualist suddenly has shotty aim. Iwatani’s definitely got his fingers in this. Betting council funding means the council has keys to the armory.

    1) At first I thought Rabbit had his hand on Bandits shoulder.
    2) Immediately started to ship Rabbandit.
    3) Realized his hand is actually on his bow.
    4) Too late. Still shipping.

      Yeah, me too.

      On the other hand, my step 2 was ‘Yell, “Noooo! Get your hands off Gravy’s girl!”‘

      (I’ve been shipping them like Fed-Ex ever since the mission where we first met Embraisch’Nj.)

    Uh-oh. Careful about those offers of privileges, Byron: they’re dangerous temptations.

    Anyone read The Harafish, by Naguib Mahfouz?

      Once you start getting “the old war stories,” it’s already too late…the temptations will start coming if you fall into the “schmoozing” posture.

      Welcome to Politics 101, Byron.

    It seems Gravy there has been drifting from the group a little, I wonder if this is just another sign of his own growing distance, or if the incidents such as this and him in the library are the result of his own worries and nagging thoughts. Or it could also be related to the whole spiritual cultists stuff going on too, can’t imagine that is anything less then distracting.

      Yeah, good call. Gravy seems to be getting on bad terms with everyone, lately.

      I think part of it is that at heart, Gravedust is a hermit. Last of the shamans, who would often be outside the tribes for large amounts of time. I don’t think Gravy is comfortable with this large of a group of people this often.

    I think the “Arthur Fonzarelli Target Practice” team building exercise is working out great.

      You mean the “thwip?” That sound belongs to Spider-Man’s web shooters.
