Oh, Stripper jokes. You never get old. Unlike strippers. A year or two on the poles, and then…off to the crimson they go!
Hooker != Stripper and vise versa. *growl*
Thats just not punny!!! (see what i did there? how do u like it phil?)
And then all the Sister come out of the shadows in an ambush!
Sisters are doing it for themselves?
Haaaaay, wait a minute…Byron’s got the shoulders.
Dun dun DUNNNN….!
It’s a trick of the light. Or lack thereof.
This just makes me wonder what Gravy’s secret is.
Could it be that he does not, in fact, go well with buttered toast?
He’s secretly addicted to twitter.
I’m really HOOKED on this story arch! I’m really DANGLING at the edge of my seat. I can feel the anticipation CLIMBING up my spin!
Your puns are looking a bi ropey :)
Got him on the ropes there. ;)
Puns, literature’s prat fall. But I guess that’s knot breaking noose to anyone here.
What’s best is, all these rope puns are being contained in a thread.
I believe I’ll tie up the loose ends to this string of puns.
Your plan just unraveled.
I wonder how long we can string this out.
Something’s bound to give, we’re barely making ends meet.
It’ll probably get frayed as we go along
Things were tangled and twisted to begin with.
Thought this thread was all wrapped up? Frayed knot!
Frayed sew!
Any thief with an ounce of self-respect and self-preservation would bind the hook with rags. That way it probably would not make a dramatic TINK, but a rather dull TUNK sound. (Which is a lot better when you are trying to stay unnoticed.)
uh…did gravedust run out of parchment? what happened to the old manuscript paper he had back in the market?
That is Parchment….it’s, uh….DARK outside.
I hooked up with a grappler once but she left me hanging.
And here I was thinking “grapple hooker” = “naked mud wrestler, with part time work post match.”
Did she hook you in?
I thought she said her motives.. that she was tired of living stolen purse to stolen purse and having the law on her tail end. Opportunity has knocked. She’s the type that checks for traps before she opens them, but in the end, they are opened. Or maybe in this case she laid the trap.. the trap that made them accept her.
Did I mention I love it when Gravedust Narrates? Cuz I do…
He certainly has the serious voice for it. This almost reminds me of Rorshack’s Journal from Watchment (the comic, NOT the movie). His narration was serious to the bone, but accurate, philisophical, and a tad bit crazy.
He told a joke (that DID make it into the movie!) and it was hillarrious because he thought it was funny when really it’s a horrible joke. I can see Gravedust making a horrifying joke in his narration.
Also, Gravedust is the only true-neutral, quiet / brooding type in the group. That tends to be the best narration, in my opinion. You think otherwise? Discuss!
Gravedust never stuck me as true-neutral ( a morality which in my opinion should be reserved for animals, golems, and inanimate objects), more neutral-good. However yes, I do agree that as a brooding character with more on his mind than on his lips, he makes for the better narrator.
People can’t be true neutral? Then what’s all this I hear about it being the most common alignment by a huge margin? Neutral means that they don’t get involved in the details. If someone’s Good, then they have a lot of compassion and should never use lethal force when another option is available, even in self-defense against someone who wants to kill them. If someone’s Evil, they have malicious intent at the core of their actions and have no qualms about killing or ruining the lives of anyone in their way. Lawful people love to plan and schedule and have difficulty working with people who don’t do things the way they do. Chaotic people absolutely hate being tied down by other people’s rules and will actively rebel whenever it’s convenient. If you are none of those things, you are True Neutral. If you have a “tendency” towards one side, that isn’t enough to count. You need to seriously commit to an ideal if you’re going to be something besides TN, and most people aren’t willing to do that.
Bandits has the hemp and Gravedust has the parchment. Sounds like they have all the ingredients for a good time.

Got summa that Bitterleaf in here, nah?
Tell me that’s an Order of the Stick reference.
I’m not sure I’m in love with grappling hooks but I love the idea of scaling walls with a rope. I would do it all day if I could. I wonder if there’s a job that involves climbing walls with ropes like, maybe, EXTREME VERTICAL POSTMAN.
window washer :)
No no, you’re not thinking EXTREME enough. Something more like EXTREME SUICIDE PREVENTION OFFICER.
the flash-forwards are even confusing the three musketeers now.
Why are there two identical pages?
they’re not…quite identical.
an edit was required to remove byron’s shoulder-blade-things. he’s not supposed to have those yet.
Alt text appreciation fan club line up starts HERE. Excellent work.
Monastery? Really?
The word is Nunnery. Monasteries are for monks.
