      What's that reference from?

        It's a Scottish Toast


        "Here's

        tae us; wha's like us?


        Gey few, and they're a' deid."


        It's probably of 19th century origin.

          Well, thank you much, and I'll toast your health when next I open a bottle o' Scotch ;)

    I like the little flippy loop de loop for his hand gesture XD

    Gladys is on it!

  • rainycity1 12 years ago archived

    Yay Gladys!

  • elCo 12 years ago archived

    I sense an Edie and Gladys fandom growing. Spin-off?

  • Nonesuch 12 years ago archived

    And this is why Gladys is the dominant twin. :p

  • Mindsword 12 years ago archived

    The real question is, could they have done that right from the get go?


    I mean, this plan distracts and weakens Gluttony, gets the main serving antagonists out of the way, then goes for the circle. However, why should the first two matter? Sure it might be able to stop them from breaking it, but there are a bunch of people. Grab a bunch of rope or vegetables and move to different sections of the hotel and throw it out the window, breaking the circle at least once if not in multiple places.


    Maybe I shouldn't be thinking about this at 4am. Overthinking things shall possibly be the death of me.

    • BrokenEye 12 years ago archived

      But its fun

    • Me-me 12 years ago archived

      Ah, consider this: Gluttony is summoned by the circle. Weaken the circle, and you weaken gluttony. However, gluttony also presumably protects the circle with Magicke, so if you weaken or distract gluttony, it stands to reason that it'd be easier to disrupt the circle.

      • that one 12 years ago archived

        I read that as "Magicake".

        Thank you.

    • Nightsbridge 12 years ago archived

      Remember also that last time when our dear cooks tried to wander about the castle, there were forcefields there to stop them. Now there aren't, perhaps because Gluttony is weak now, fighting Courage and having their feast stopped.

    • fwknight 12 years ago archived

      Check back two comics for the answer.

  • Sturzkampf 12 years ago archived

    There's that damned clock again. Wonder if it has anything to do with the summoning?

  • fishsicles 12 years ago archived

    Alcohol is humanity's friend. Can we abandon a friend?

  • Odo 12 years ago archived

    I think I like best the use of breaking a glass that held booze (drinking being one of the things gluttony encourages) to break the circle.


    I also like the subtle and clever "signal".


    Now on to speculation: Gluttony is inside the second circle, which will become the only circle once the outer circle is broken. Nora and Rosie are inside the circle too, but they are controlling the circle so if they break it properly, then gluttony will be banished and Fortitude will return to Nora. That's my call.

    • ShadeTail 12 years ago archived

      Nah, all the other deadlies have been freed at the end of their respective chapters. One way or another, Gluttony will still be around back in Harry's era.

      • Odo 12 years ago archived

        Wait, what , when are we?


        That might be true, actually. We are in a bit of an anachronistic island at the moment, aren't we? I hate time travel. There's always bits of loose paradox lying around after then ending.

    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.
