Sharp Tongue Chapter 14
Chivalry Lessons

Magus opened his mouth to argue, but then realized he had no proper response. "All right, Amphibian," he finally said. "Tell me what I need to know, and I mean on no uncertain terms. I came to you for help and I intend to get it. You're the closest any of us have to a Prince Charming, and thus, you are my only choice for a teacher."

"To be quite honest, I believe thou'rt beyond my power," Frog scoffed.

"Oh, how very helpful. She hates me, you know. Perhaps I might convince you with a little pain... Sir Froggy?"

"And for good reason!" Frog snapped. "Thy manners are condescending at best, thy words near always biting and co

Desperation

Magus couldn't bear to speak to Lucca the next morning, even to say "pass the salt." Neither did Lucca speak to him. She didn't see any evidence of what she'd wrought on him the previous night, but it would have been difficult to do so, since he was doing his best to hide it and wouldn't look at her. The question of what to do next arose.

Frog swallowed his mouthful of food. "There's the ghost of a lofty knight, slain by Magus in the Middle Ages, who haunts thine age," Frog recalled, paraphrasing Gaspar's words. "I... I feel I must seek out this spirit. It may be Cyrus. I never did tell him how... goodbye."

Lucca noted the amen

"I don't care what we've done in the past - we are not all seven of us sleeping in a room this small," said Crono, surveying the room where his four no-longer-missing comrades had been staying. "Draw straws on who has to camp outside?"

"Seems like a good idea," said Lucca. "Robo can just be shut down and placed out of the way, so he won't need a straw. So that means six straws, I guess? How many people per bed are you guys willing to do?"

"Ayla sleep outside," Ayla offered.

"Thank you, Ayla," said Crono. He looked at the beds. "We can probably fit two of us in each of these. That's what you and Ayla did, right?"

"Actually, she deci

It's been a long time since I've drawn myself with a fictional character; much longer if you don't count the times I did it as a joke.

Four days left of City of Heroes, and then Edmund disappears... I love him, as much as any author has ever loved a creation (not that I don't love Oougel too, but she isn't a hugger), and it hurts so much that I have to say goodbye.

Very moving piece the emotion is very strong, your Edmund looks beautiful. He seem so strong, wishing to comfort you, saying goodby, but also a quite graceful acceptance about him too. He feel so real here. Your lines are beautiful, and it's just perfect the black and white. Great impact.

In the face of something he really couldn't change, I just can't even begin to think of him doing anything else. I'm glad that came through. At the game's end I felt like he was about to face a firing squad - not that a firing squad would keep him down for long, technically, but the idea is there.

*Ack I am so late in replying! D:*
I can understand that, it's sad that it was shut down and as I understand kinda wasn't necessary as it was still making a profit too? Poor Edmund is stuck in some kind of character/creative-limbo now :(

The worst part is how completely out-of-the-blue the shutdown was. The development team was laid off [i]while[/i] the next big content update was being advertized, during the actual beta for that content.

It really stings seeing you in this much pain and knowing I can't do anything about it.

But at least with all the art you've done of him here, a piece of him will live on. And you can still draw him, of course. Maybe over time, his ties to the lore will fade?

And if he can't find the time, he'll steal some for himself. ;)

Wow. That's beautiful, and so very sad and touching at the same time.

Thank you for sharing this.
