Aaaaand that's it for chapter 8! I'm actually pretty excited for chapter 9, because once it's done we'll be officially half way through the comic. Not to give anything away, but I feel that's when the ball really starts rolling downhill. But I also do like chapter 9 a lot for itself, it's got some moments I really like in it. *thumbs up*
So, let's see. Since the beginning of this comic, Nate has been:
- stumbling in the streets
- hit with a fish
- abducted by pirates
- whacked unconscious
- slapped by a lich
- beaten to mush by his co-workers
- having his hands cut open by glass shards
- having his earring ripped out through his earlobe
- if we count "Tales of the Tides", shot in the shoulder
...Jammy? It appears you're a sadist with an intense crush on Nate. It's not healthy. You should really look for someone who's enough of a masochist to appreciate your attention. You're hurting the poor boy.
Ok, more seriously, I do think it's quite important for future events that this is shown as a really unpleasant time for him. The earring does have a role to play too! If it helps any, things will get a bit better.
That feeling when you forget you can at most run from one side of the ship to another but in such a enclosed space you are going to constantly bump into people like this guy again and again... When are they going to anchor anyway?
