That punchline was a real hit :D
(...I'll see myself out)
Just came to check that Ms Cunningham has taken her medication…
"THWAKK" is not the sound of a malform spawning, so things are still going well.
Placing my bet now that the next panel is Tim standing over Patience after hitting her with a 2-by-4.
Did you mispronounce "clue-by-four"?
I hope so, but I kind of doubt it.
-whistle- never underestimate the muscles of steam engineers
(insert kabaneri gif here)
I think somebody's angry.
Huh, Patience is a lefty?
Yep.

She has her pouch on her right and grabs her tools with her left. She also reaches with her left multiple times. [https://www.widdershinscomi...](https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/june-22nd-2021 "https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/june-22nd-2021")
How sinister...
Heh
Dexterous too, oddly enough.
She has pouches on both sides.
She does, but she reaches across with her left instead of down with her right. I've worn utility belts for work and never had a problem reaching down for a tool, but I'd reach across with my right to get something in my dominant hand immediately.
If I had thought of it last page, it would've been perfect, but it works here, too: sings "With cat-like tread..."
"UPON OUR PREY WE STEAL!"
Yay! Was hoping someone would pick it up.
Ever see The Pirate Movie? Not really all that great, but absolutely hilarious in places...
"Teran-tera"
This is how they get stranded in a lifeboat.
Ooh, lookie dem fisty cuffs!
It's okay. I'm pretty sure this is still flirting.
Would it hurt Verity to call Lei by her actual name? Not only out of respect, but to give doubt to how they know each other?
I remember noticing in Curtain Call that Vee addresses people less formally the more she likes them (her favorite cousin gets called Benji, the former partner she has an awkward relationship with is Harriet instead of Harry, said partner’s annoying new assistant just gets addressed as “Wizard”). I suspect that when she calls Lei by her name, it’ll be a key moment in the development of their relationship to each other.
NOT THE FACE!
Hmm. Patience put on her special armored punching glove while Verity was distracted, but she is still outnumbered here.
Verity and Lei will never make it as covert agents. They forgot that as far as Patience was concerned they don't know each other. Verity's best bet would have been to be as surprised as Patience, but no, they've let the cat out of the bag.
Verity calling Lei "assistant" provides Lei with a ready-made excuse for following her.
Lei forgetting which person she's supposed to be "I can explain!" -ing to is entirely on her.
Oh dear, Verity has committed the biggest error in flirting/fighting. She let herself get distracted. A rookie move. I expect better from her.
An.. anger malform. Oh dear....
I believe the villain-codex demands Lei and Verity be tied to each other back to back and left in an underwater contraption to definitely run out of air and die while we are gloating over our maniacal plan.
Like this? [https://www.widdershinscomi...](https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/september-3rd-2014 "https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/september-3rd-2014")

If they try often enough it has to work eventually!
While out of line of sight of the restrained protagonists of course. There are certain conventions that must be observed for it to be proper villainy!
Otherwise one may as well serve biscuits without tea! Which would be absolutely Scandalous!
Well, at least everyone is on the same page.
They always are - otherwise we wouldn't see them.
Angry party!!!
That's....about as bad as that could have gone.
Someone seems to have lost their patience...
Yes the previous flirty fighting was cute, but this pretty much confirms that Patience is a vicious psychotic who genuinely enjoys hurting people. Abandon ship! (not the boat, the Verity-Patience one.)
