Lae glowers and grasps her fist as the prince explains himself. Kaga: I HAD TO TEST YOU, MAKE SURE YOU REALLY ARE A SEER. Lae: SO I <i>DON'T</i> NEED ANY ANTIDOTE FROM YOU? Kaga: THE SPICINESS WILL FADE AWAY ON ITS OWN. Lae: WHAT A <i>RELIEF.</i> Lae punches the prince's smug face with no further hesitation. SFX: PUNCH Silas jumps back up to the porch. Lae is doing something to Kaga's unconscious face. Silas (ghost): LAE! VIDYA'S ON HER- ER, WHAT HAPPENED? Lae: HE LIED ABOUT THE POISON... Silas (ghost): OF ALL THE IDIOTIC- Lae puts the finishing touches on Kaga's new, red face paint. He has a Tashoni character on his forehead, long eyelashes, and a mustache. Lae: BUT I'M FEELING BETTER ALREADY. Silas (ghost): I CAN SEE THAT. Lae shrugs on her backpack and heads for the ladder. Lae: READY FOR OUR LESSONS? Silas (ghost): HA! OF COURSE!

And this concludes Chapter 3! Look forward to a fun (and information heavy) intermission starting next week.

I'm genuinely surprised I managed to get this week's page up in time. We picked up three baby rats this week! I spent a fair bit of time preparing for them and then playing with them and then training them... They are very cute and affectionate and I highly recommend their breeder, Kelsey, to anyone in the Pacific Northwest looking to give some amazing rats a loving home.

So here are our new boys: Zucchini, Oatmeal, and Pretzel! My family has a tradition of naming pets after delicious food. :D

      Heh. I assume that the character on his forehead is their equivalent of "L" or "Loser."

      I like how, before his face has its "unfortunate" meeting with Lae's fist, he seems to think this is the most innocuous thing in the world.

      "Yeah, I just, you know, lied to you about poisoning you because I didn't trust you and made you think you were about to die. Totally cool."

        Haha, you're basically right; his forehead says "liar." And I also love Kaga's ridiculous "I'm-so-clever" face in panel 2.

          I agree. Kaga's smugness just makes it that much more satisfying when Lae knocks the crap out of him. Keep up the good work!

          I thought it might be the symbol for Idiot (baka) there.
          (There's an obscure reference.)

            Sadly Lae doesn't know Japanese, only a bit of Tasoni. :P

      Haha, I love the panel where he gets his lights knocked out. I think we were all cheering at that point.

      The new rats are adorable! Which one is Oatmeal? They all look like they have a bit of mischief in them...

      I love the page, and the rats too! They look so cute in the top left photo munching on their snacks together.

        Thanks! I had to bribe the wigglers with cheerios to hold still long enough for me to snap their picture.
