IT’S TIME FOR A CLASSY NEW YEAR!!!
Formal dress! Fancy shmansy!
As for this comic…
Some will be shocked by this revelation. Few will be really shocked, though. Some may be slightly surprised that Tracee would spill the beans so quickly, but this story arc needs to get a move-on, so we’ll just skip the run-around.
Alt Text – Man, you ain’t kiddin’.
We speak truth here.
Very true, insurance companies and the mafia use exactly the same business model.
“Hey, yo. You pay us some money and nothing unfortunate happens to you or your stuff, capisce? Badda bing, badda boom, paisano”
It’s better with the goombah Italian. More style.
And Tracee said “I’ve”… has this been ongoing? Does she have a hidden access to the House of Secrets?
No, not now. But over the past year. Tense is weird. “I’d” might have been a better choice, and the phrasing was a bit different in an earlier draft, but almost every speech bubble in this comic starts as some long, clear and nuanced paragraph that I then need to boil down to the utter basics to get it to fit in the available space.
Sometimes the nuances are lost.
yep
You’ve got great action on Tracee’s movement in panel 3.
Thumbs Up.
I try. The hair always helps.
Does Hannah own a cat as a pet ? Also, makes me wonder how does Tracee get her spare money if the place is under lock and key. I mean surely there is a backup security in case of thefts, right ?
She was doing that while they were there. I’m guessing that was occurring while they lived at the mansion. Now here’s the 64 karat question, where has she been keeping it?
We shall see. Shortly.
More importantly, can she get back in…
Well, not anymore.
Hannah may or may not be a cat owner. Though I don’t relish the task of drawing a cat. I’m bad with cats.
I don’t know about that. You do Emily pretty good, I’d say.
Heh. Well, I can manage that kind of cat.
Cats are a bit more potato-shaped.
with the money in Satan’s vault, they’re one step closer to helping him get his power back.
One step. One tiny step.
makes sense to me – every girl needs her rainy day account, especially if she´s living off a sugar daddy. as marrilyn sung: men grow cold as women grow old, diamonds(or in this case gold) are a girls best friend
the big question though is, how much did she hid away, and could she help them break into that vault
Marilyn knows what’s what.
There is some tradition (not sure where) under which women can only own what they wear. Unsurprisingly, women under that tradition wear LOT of jewelry …
To be fair, it has been raining.
Torrentially.
And plaid.
No one is surprised by this revelation, lol.
If they ARE surprised, they don’t know Tracee very well.
At this point in their relationship, they shouldn’t be keeping secrets from each other. After all, Satan has lost that shadow on his face…
Always keep secrets from Satan if you can. I mean, srsly?
Clearly, Tracee never learned how some murderers get away with their dirty deeds: shoot, shovel, and shut up.
Well, Tracee isn’t a pro at this sort of stuff. It takes time to get there.
Okay, so everyone finds the door that no one has ever seen before on the same day, in a helpful sequence?
You noticed, huh?
Stealing from Satan . . . that counts as a good act, right? Hmmm . . . or maybe that shadow will manifest on Tracee’s face . . .
The shadow doesn’t manifest on mortals’ faces. Only on their souls…
Who says energy drinks aren’t classy?
Morning hangovers being avoided? That’s the high of class if you ask me.
Granted I can’t drink alcohol due to medical issues. Anti-seizure meds and alcohol aren’t exactly on good terms with each other.
I don’t drink alcohol nor energy drinks. Can’t really manage either.
An alcoholic energy drink. I don’t know about that. But that dress is Aces Gecko, is it one of Phoebe’s creations?
Satan can’t possibly be upset by this development. If he retains any of his essential evil-ality, he will have expected that Tracee skimmed from the till. I’d be mnore than a bit surprised of he hadn’t the forethought to drop some ill-gotten “campaign” contributions into an anonymous Swiss account.
Spoiler: Satan is actually going to be super happy about this.
