It Was NOT Magically Delicious
posted by Chris on 2013/4/25 (Comics)
Hello hello once again! It's Thursday once more and that means that it's time for our weekly lesson on why you should NOT take strange potions from strange lizards in strange ports.
Enjoy

....but I miss Zara, he was like a little comic sorcerer, he got what I liked and he gave it more.
I don't know if I'm complaining or complimenting you or wizards and sorcerers. I just miss the way it used to be.
Things just got busy on my part, but I'm going to do my best to get last weeks issue and this weeks issue out for this week still.
Stay tuned
You see, rogues are supposed to be competent in what they do by nature, even the low-level ones. But this one, however, may not be as big a newbie as we gave him credit for. Doubling his poison with drugs proves he really thought this through from from his deceptively predictable potion scam to his pathetic and amateur appearance.
The way I see it, the entire concept of this peculiar lizardfolk is that looks can be deceiving, and it was a pretty darn-good deception, judging how many people it may have fooled here(including Myself, and, by far more relevantly, Keriss).
Now one finally may say the disturbing lizard's role in this story is complete(in triumph), and Keriss' sweet, sweet aftermath for underestimating a trickster awaits. And hopefully, with any luck at all, we will never have to see the bush on his ever again, if not as part of a corpse.
Xykeb Zraliv: Yeah, all in all, it seems that most people are confused by at least one thing.
And then I guess the sixth panel is her saying that after consuming the potion it's not so weird to see a Lizardman with hair? I can't think of anything "DreamJuice" could refer to, anyway.
...I dunno, I guess it makes sense now but it's still awkwardly (and honestly sort of clumsily) put together.
The second row of dialogue just does not make a lick of sense to me. I have no idea how the fourth panel is supposed to segue into the fifth, unless they're somehow trying to imply that the tooth can make you "ignore" things you see as well as things you consume (obviously not true). Is it supposed to be a joke? For that matter, did that guy just call that thing a hat? What does DreamJuice have to do with anything? Is it a callback to the alcohol thing, and if so...why? It just doesn't make any sense to me no matter how I look at it.
I get the general idea of the strip (the potion turns out to be a trippy drug, the alcohol question is supposed to bring out the fact that she's not immune to said drug because it's not poison), but I feel like the dialogue in general is just really all over the place and I have no idea what half of it means.
I can report the drugs have no long range effect...
What IS that lizard doing with a can opener!
anyone else see the connection?
So this could get weird very, very fast. At least it's nice to see that the potion's colour DID hint at it having some other effect.
