AAaA Frigg 4
Frigg gets about as warm to the Ask an Adventurer exercise here as she’s capable of getting (her last appearance in the series will have her revert a bit). But hey, the user here asked the right question.
The character development on display here makes this one of my favorite AaAs. Frigg even gets downright self-effacing with “She’s almost always right,” suggesting she knows some of her limitations a lot better than she lets on.
Not sure if Flo just forgot to include the name of the question-poser sometimes, if they asked anonymously, or if she thought it’d be more in character for Frigg to say “Here’s a goddamned letter” than “Here’s a goddamned letter from Silas Q. Anthony.”
Finally my name is printed!
That face on panel 3 is magnificent. It’s like that Not Bad Obama meme but better.
If you ask me, she’s doing a Robert De Niro impression
Ahhh yes, very good. Haha!
And they did it all because they are women! And in Syr’Nj case of colour as well! Hence she’s even more badass!
…
No? You’re telling that’s not it?
That they are simply badass by the merit of being badass as characters without it being because they are specifically something? What in the world?!
Is that how good characters are actually written?! O_O
…
Yes. Yes, they are.
Also like Frigg says, even badasses can be wrong at times. It’s just if you keep mentioning it to her, she’ll shove her mace in your face with the force of her badassery for it
Yeah, this. If “female” were struck from the question would Frigg’s answer be any different? Doubtful. More impactful a claim though to be top among all.
I love that Syr’Nj and Frigg have so much respect for each other, even though they are very different in a lot of ways. It’s refereshing.
Something that can easily be ignored.
She seems so thin out of her armor.
