Lacrima flashbang strikes again! Well, it’s technically just a flash, but y’know.
From their expressions, I think some of these cave crawlers might understand what Dainix is about to do.
Also, I had a thought: What if Falst and his family hid in the upper areas of the caves like humans and elves when the ancients were still around? That could explain his history with cave crawlers.
Considering how tiny that lacrima is, it probably has enough charge for one or two uses; Dainix had better make it count, or he’s going to have to risk using fire again.
There once were things that could crawl
And traverse up and down any wall.
They used to be real,
Now they just want a meal,
Their personhood gone past recall.
It’s *really* sounding like Falst knows this because he lost an “I know you’re in there somewhere” fight and at this point I’m thinking the Mom Theory is when-not-if
I…look, Dainix honey, I get why you’re upset, but even if we accept these ARE people, they’re still people WHO ARE TRYING TO EAT YOU. I think lethal force is still entirely acceptable to use, given the circumstances!
The detail in Falst’s eyes is something I really enjoy. Like, when he noticed the cave crawlers sneaking up on them, his pupils practically disappeared. It’s cool to notice. Also, getting dragged by the hair? Ouch. Falst is Sir Not Having A Good Time 🙁
Also I think the cave crawler that’s grabbed Dainix might be disintegrating? A little bit? If you look real close at their hand on Dainix’s arm you can see his armguard through their knuckles. Yick.
For mobile readers.
Alt-text: is there anything those pockets can’t do
Image source: people
Never underestimate the power of functional pockets!
“I love your poncho!”
“It has pockets!”
We thought Dainix was the Human Torch, but in fact, he is also Batman!
There are times when I crave a like button.

Wouldn’t that make Falst thousands of years old? The ancients disappeared millennia ago.
Also Ferins only came into being about a thousand years ago.
No Mint’s suggesting that Falst and his family did it when he was young. Not at the same time the ancients were alive
No longer people
But it seems he has a plan
It involves flashbangs
Yes, once the crawlers were people and such
But no more, so use that lacrima you clutch!
(Assuming that is a small lightning lacrima, as that would make sense.)
i think it’s very fun that Falst grabs Dainix’s fireproof cape thing like it’s a shirt
im pretty sure its called a poncho
The number of items Dainix has in his pouch would make Erin’s bag jealous. Seriously, he’s like Link or something.
Holy Batman, Danaix1 are you hiding a utility belt in those pouches?
Just wait until Falst pulls out a Catarang.
…Now that I write that, I wouldn’t be entirely opposed to it.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
DOES IT ALMOST FEEL LIKE NOTHI sorry i’m sorry
I wonder if that flashbang is organic in nature, like a nut or a particularly hard-shelled berry.
Dainix used Flashbang!
Wait 48 hours to see if it was super-effective or not.
Ooh that one grabbing the spear in the last panel is gonna be point blank on some ouchies.
But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing’s—
^Falst right now, reliving traumatic memories
Does it almost feel like you’ve been here before?
I think he was looking for “nothings changed at all”
Sorry i know, the lyric i mentioned just made think of the mom theory
Considering how tiny that lacrima is, it probably has enough charge for one or two uses; Dainix had better make it count, or he’s going to have to risk using fire again.
Agreed, especially because the cave crawlers are weak to light and heat
Falst: great idea, I almost blinded Erin with one of those.
Something about this particular panel… I can HEAR both their voices in my head in a way. Does that make sense??? I am unsure. It’s cool. Good job!
There once were things that could crawl
And traverse up and down any wall.

Now they just want a meal,

is it gonna go boom?

Most people consider it OK to sho.ot the canibal that’s trying to eat you. I changed the words that might get this comment suspended intentionally.
Mods are not bots. (pats shoulder of suffering reader)
There’s a bot that stops comments from being posted so they can be reviewed. I didn’t want to deal with it
Is that the Batman but fire powers?
Falst doesn’t look angry in panel 6, more… scared? panicked, even. quit pulling at my heartstrings, man!!!
I’m guessing that those former people are requesting death and are barely able to control their bodies, like a constant waking nightmare
New trend format
Post an opinion that’s got you like [panel 7]

I think those are spikes of bone or something, considering that there’s one poking out of it’s thumb’s knuckle.
Ahh… The suspense! So refreshing. XD
Cave crawlers: Pretty-pretty! Shiny-shiny!!
New reader here. This comic is giving me everything I’ve been missing since Keychain of Creation went dark. Keep being awesome, Red!
Oh boy my anxiety sure is high now
TL;DR: Let there be light!
If I close my eyes I can’t read the next page
