Aww, very cute with Maytag popping out the back like that.

Just waiting for the host's niceness to turn a 180 right into nastiness when any of his guests don't do what he has planned for them or whatever.

Also what, Crest is jealous of the dog now?? This is getting silly... although not too unrealistic considering some people I've known ;)

is it that or is he upset about Escher's unshirtedness touching Supriria?

and what's the matter with Glyph on this page?  Is he a raging homosexual (well bi I guess) who is incredibly turned on by Danzig?

Danzig's a pretty awesome name by the way.

Looking back at the sign.  I'm not sure it was painted so well. Although I do note that the mistakes (such as the smudging of the 'A' and the faded 'D') appear to have the same 'mistakes' or errors.  Heck, that fact that its floating tells us its a magickal sign, so its probably been painted magickally (or Brion's ust cut and pasted the letters around ::))

The closest we've ever come to a full blown villian in Flipside is Derricks.  Even Voulger regretted all his actions when the collar was removed, but Derricks knew what he wanted to do and sought the collar to help bring it about.  Danzig might be a bad news for these guys, but I'd be surprised if he's a full villian considering Brian's past use of 'bad guys' such as Bloody Mary.

Maybe you'd throw the attackers at the Asylum club into the ring, but we didn't get to know them very well *shrug*.  Same with Melter.  We don't know him very well yet.

If the only problem this guy gives them is having to pay for breakfast, then they're in good shape I say.

but yeah, I know.  Is there a concierge so they can find a restaurant for dinner??  Or did they bring a supply of lembas?

I'm sure Brion noted the rough ratio of a gold coin to today's money at some point but I can't recall where.

I half remember that 1 gold = $20.00 but I'm not certain.

It's $10 per gold coin, roughly.

so wait, 30$ a night (split between several people) to spend the night in a magical castle? That seems a little....

It's 30 per room, so with 2 rooms it becomes 60 per night.

That's still only 12$ per person. o.O

And hey! Moss is back! This should be interesting.

Edit: I really want to know what Moss sees when he looks at Crest. o.O

Well, Akash, this is before the concepts of monetary Inflation, macro economics and the corporation, thus the realistic prices...

Not really arguing about the economics of a fantasy world, that's like arguing about the physics of one. Just wish we had prices like that here. Complete with shirtless servant doormen and such. :P

TRAP!!

Damn, I wonder if he's just another guest with those two in tow or part of the staff.

Do we put this all down as circumstantial, or has it been a plan of Moss' from the start to get them here?

Any guesses on the Twin's weakness people?

Possibly.  Moss wasn't just trying to learn sorcery, he was trying to steal Seraph's notes on the 4th level of sorcery.  Considering he'd only just obtained second level, you'd think it was for someone more powerful than him. Maybe like the people in this castle.

If we presume they're all fairly powerful sorcerers then its going to be a rough night with Suspira drained and Glyph probably running low after powering the carriage all day.

I don't know why, but somehow I'm guessing that Glyph's "perv-scanner" is going to come in use for more than the obvious.  Maybe we'll even see Bern get some use of her anti-magick sword.  Hell, I wonder if it would also grant protection from magick spells cast upon you while held (I know Bern had it when Mary's fear demon took hold, but she wasn't holding it in her hand).

Personally, I'm hoping we learn a little more about 'curses' as opposed to permanent enchantments and the like.

and if that's the case, then a level 3+ sorcerer falling into their hands in a weakened state is just way too good to let go of.

I got the same impression about his scanner, though I don't think it would protect against enchantments... other than by detecting them. Something tells me that if he uses them on the Twins, he might get a surprise.

I'm also thinking that the weird comment about the sign could have been a tip off that it was just recently put there to lure our unsuspecting travelers into a trap.

OMFG, Moss!!!

You're one sly bastard, Brion.




Um, also, don't take this the wrong way, but while Moss' face looks fine in the second panel, and a little strange in the fourth panel, it looks really weird in the last one.

Who is this Moss fellow? He gives me the Heebeegeebies.  :-\

And as far as the $12 a night thing, yeah it's a little low, but I'm used to paying only a little more (a freind of mine works for a popular hotel chain so a group of my freinds get discount rates when we travel for magic tourneys. It's a little more then that, but close enough.
