    Total waste of time. She didn’t even get xp for the boss fight. She woulda gotten more out of killing a boar.

      Well, she did basically refuse the biggest levelup in the game.

    Only Frigg would consider being offered effective godhood a complete waste of her time. And that’s what makes her special.

      Mostly because she feels like it’s being forced on her and she has no say in the matter. That’s kind of her thing. Not letting others tell her what her thing is. :P

      Well, it’s a waste of time because she didn’t get any answers, did she? Or was last strip supposed to be the answers? Because they didn’t look like answers to me.

      Frigg swore to protect her friends at all costs. She doesn’t have time for Longcat now, when they’re about to take on the final raid boss. That said, she mentioned waiting, so maybe she can ascend after the game, like 4e destinies or however those worked.

      Remember, there are those that would defy fate itself simply out of spite. As is her fate to defy and be defiant… In the end she follows her path. Thus is the fate of those who wish to defy.

      Also she’s kinda dumped all of her int to like a seven so that -2 really hurts her.

        I always loved this strip. Don’t worry, this one in particular is safe.

      Not the only one I would suspect. Afterall, she only has their word that they are gods.

      And what does that mean? Does that mean she gets to live in a life of luxury? Or does it mean floating around as a spirit granting boons to followers?

      If the latter, then yeah, I can several people considering it a waste of time.

    She’s going to ascend at the moment it is convenient for her to do something defiant.

    It is predestined.

      Being a god is bound to be handy when HR’s plan to turn himself into a god comes to fruition.

      Anyone that didn’t understand Frigg before just needs to take a good look at the middle panel and they’ll understand her after that.

    Good thing this was all just a vision since her mood would not have improved if her armor really did explode and she had to walk back to Weo’s house naked.

      Are you kidding? “My armor exploded from awesomeness. Now I’m cold and naked*, warm me up lame-os*!!!” sounds like the beginning of one of the best FriggDays ever!

      * – insert expletive laden tirade and graphic descriptions of genitalia and sexytime violence here for that proper Friggish feel.

    I still feel like godly powers could be useful to her on her current mission… or many other future missions. But obviously, you don’t tell Frigg what to do.

      Godly powers may require ascension to a plane where you can only work through your worshippers, though. Frigg’s a hands-on sorta gal.

        It may indeed mean that, yes, but it also might not. So I was only speculating since we haven’t really been told what it would enatil. If it gave her the super glowy hammershit like what we saw a few pages ago, she might like to have that right away, but yeah, maybe it does mean ascension and that’s why’s she so opposed to it. Other than that she’d be opposed to it anyway. :P

    ‘Til, not t’il. Sorry, I’m half asleep still and stared at that for far too long. Need coffee. Love Frigg’s face while flipping the double bird salute.

    When she does become a god, panel 2 will be the holy gesture of benediction that her clerics use

        It is also an acceptable salute to use when addressing Best. There are nuances to these things.

    Well, she’s also got that whole sisterhood of the open and unyielding heart already worshipping her, so I suppose it was just a matter of time before she was invited to make it official ;)

    I was startled to realize some weeks ago that Frigg has become one of my all-time favorite literary characters (and that’s saying a lot — I’m old as dirt). I’ve been reading this webcomic pretty much since it started, and it’s a great strip, but Frigg…she shows up on the screen, and I find I’m just smiling.

    Shit, it took looking at the middle panel a second time, but it occurred to me that it’s based on a meme, appropriately enough. I can’t remember what meme, and I can’t find it, but there’s totally an image macro with that expression and double middle fingers.

        No, I think it’s one of the stick figure macros. I remember seeing that expression with the extended arms and double middle fingers. I just can’t find it.

        Well, you shouldn’t have told us that. If he was the Unknown Meme, then he should have stayed unknown, right?
        :P
