Somehow I just can't think about anything else but "It would be so childish, yet hilarious, if Forgath's "Cure Light Wounds"-light came shooting out of Kin's nose as well. Nose bleeding anime style."

[askstoomuch]

two questions

one is minmax crying in pannel one ?

two has the ring made forgaths spell stronger ? cuz it looks diffrent

[csimurai]

That awkward moment when Forgath becomes funnier than Minmax...

[arles]

two questions

one is minmax crying in pannel one ?

Huh. Minmax wipes his nose in panel 1. The blood there goes away. That is attention to detail.

[askstoomuch]

thx arles , noticed it when i re read the page

but when was the last time forgath healed minmax it looks diffrent now for some reason, probalby just better art now

[Sketch]

Cure Light Wounds > broken heart

Also it may be that kin is seen the "soul healing" - look at their eyes...both Kin and MM

[Raventhorne]

lol way to go forgrath the way he touched him looks to say he trying to cure minmax heart due being heartbroken.

with how kin is saying everything to him

[HumanQuirk]

So, all that's left for MinMax is to become yuan-ti, I'm sure they have some kickass template he'll like. ;]

Also, I love how Forgath is trying to distract them in the back there.

[Morkhero]

Hmm, i really like how Forgath, healing Minmax with a glowing finger ressembles E.T. =)

I also love the way he looks in the last three panels. He seems to think whether he is able to do something but in the end the only thing left for him to do is heal minmax and to have sympathy for them.

(as there are no anus's in snakes)

What? Then can you tell me what snakes excrete when I'm handling them? I understand the regurgitating, much like an owl, it coughs up the bones and fur that it can't digest, but it excretes waste, too, out the other end.

I have no idea how Goblinslayer 'raped' Kin

Snakes lay eggs, there's an orifice in the back that allows that, and that's how the Goblinslayer had his "fun."

Anyway, love this page, and I love a good love story in a fantasy setting, and Thunt is really hitting that high bar. I just feel for big ol' Minmax. Them looking at each other and cocking their heads to see if they "feel" that connection is hilarious. I also like the nice of Forgath touching close to Minmax's heart to "heal" it whether that's intentional on Thunt's part or not.

As someone pointed out earlier, the end of the digestive tract in a snake is called a cloaca. It is used for digestive, urinary and reproductive output. That means (spoilered for adult content)

every time GoblinSlayer raped Kin, he was penetrating her anally. Ouch.

I've got another question. Back when I was playing D&D, the dungeons my DMs would run us through weren't nearly as cool as just one of the rooms Thunt has put these characters through. Makes me feel like I missed out.

[Cooper]

I don't see Forgath as "healing Minmax's broken heart" in the last panel. If you look, he's not touching anywhere near MinMax's heart. Forgath's finger is touching MinMax's chest, yes, but it's far closer to the right side, whereas the heart lies closer to the left, where MinMax's strap for his backpack is lying.

[Rifalia]

I suspect Forgath has noticed that PsiMax is right and is showing it with a cure spell he'd normally use anyways.

And the look on his face. "Oh really?" Not the first time he's done that.

Not sure what implacations this may have down the road, particularly where "method" is concerned.

[PariahInk]

My take on the last panel was that Forgath's Cure Light Wounds caused MM's soul to shine, hence the surprised look on Kin's face: she just saw his soul. As for Forgath's expression, I read that as "Fine, I'll show you his soul."

[androkguz]

About Kin and love: I maintain she is on denial.

But on another topic: Forgath, you better not be thinking of keeping any of those rings! (unless they are something very cleric-y). So far, MinMax and Kin have solved all the obstacles so far in the maze the most useful think you Forgath have done is heal MinMax. That +2 to strenght belongs to the man that killed 2 overpowered alters and the other one belongs to the yuan-ti that constricted her double and figured the way to open the confusion door.
Wild theory: Minmax, pissed with kin, fights over the rings over Forgath and "friends become enemies"

[CosmicAverage]

Forgath's finger is touching MinMax's chest, yes, but it's far closer to the right side, whereas the heart lies closer to the left, where MinMax's strap for his backpack is lying.

The heart is actually located in the middle of the chest, approximately where Forgath has his finger.



Not that literally healing MinMax's physical heart will do anything for his emotional pain...

[maelfaesh]

I wonder why people are in denial about Kin's basic psychology.

Let's reverse the thought.

"Minmax, why don't you want to get into this big giant ball of snakes and reproduce?"

"Cause that's just gross."

"Whatever. You're in denial."


In other news...

Forgath's dwarf-ness is coming out. During the emotional stuff, get the loot.

Ok, one is a str +2 ring, which any of them could benefit from... what's the other...?

Oh and why does minmax have four fingers, forgath have three, and kin have two?

*Edited twice cause in my oldage I forget how to spell.

[Ageisia]

Another thing that sorta surprised me in this: I wasn't expecting Minmax to admit he had a thing for Kin so easily. I didn't expect him to have already realized how he felt about her.

[RocketScientist]

Nice profiles, Thunt.

[twocoo]

Kin's a Yuan-ti, and there are a bunch of different Yuan-ti, including some that are more humanoid. Thunt has stated in the chat that he's not even sure what sort of Yuan-ti she is, but she would appear to be a half-blood with snake lower organs. However this does not rule out the possibility of her having slightly more mammalian genital and excretory organs. Trueseeing in standard DnD, for example, is a form of prophecy, not something akin to love in Yuan-ti ecology. So clearly Thunt and Herbert aren't going strictly with published stats here.

Minmax asked Goblinslayer how "that worked," and was told it worked just fine. Anyhow Goblinslayer was apparently injuring her down to one hit point every night, which could certainly include...injuring her snake organs in ways best not described too explicitly. I try not to think too much about how Goblinslayer did it, but I personally like to imagine that she might have some structural differences which make the whole scenario a little less horrific. Probably a lost cause as would still be pretty sick if Kin were homo sapiens.

[ThroughTheWell]

Oh and why does minmax have four fingers, forgath have three, and kin have two?

THunt worked out the number of fingers that creatures/races have in his world long ago. There have been *some* posts on this in the past.

I think that GS said specifically that he was beating her to her last hp every night.
As for how "it" worked. I think that the leash acted as an item of command on her. If he wanted fellatio or any other sex act, he could just command her to do it. If memory serves.

[revskid]

I also vote for Forgath rolling his eyes in an expression of long-suffering because obviously Kin and Minmax still don't get it.

Yeah, the heart's more in the middle than most people assume. The bulk of it is a little bit to the left (your left) of your middle. It's why your left lung only has 2 lobes while the right has 3, gotta make room.

So, all that's left for MinMax is to become yuan-ti, I'm sure they have some kickass template he'll like. ;]

And he wouldn't even need pants!

[skythorn]

just want MinMax and Kin to get some sweet loving getting done, a bit of smooth Frank Sinatra, low mood lighting, a nice little lei of flowers around each of their necks, juicy small furry creatures from alpha centari running around on a plate for Kin, and whatever it is that Adventrurers eat while in a dungeon, I think Adventurer Rations (depicted below) would make eating small furry creatures more appetising IMO. Perhaps both of them have small furry creatures.



As you might recall - Thunt gave a spiel on the various realities which has been transcribed here. http://duke.a-comics.ru/fmk/

Note #1 - no reality #38 listed.
Note #2 - a reality is still to come - that of #16 - the one 'that cant be talked about' as it's plotspoilerish.
