Wednesday wanted to get in on yesterday's acronym fun, but Wednesday gets distracted easily and doesn't always pay attention to how much time has passed. So here's one...

I'm with Shankraft. How does Riff know that the Oasis satellite project is called The Harbinger project?

Well that's not good.

Good putting two and two together though Riff.

He didn't. Oasis was called Harbinger in the DoR.

I wonder how Riff gets out of this one.

Well this is not as interesting to me as both Torg and Riff believing for so long that inflatable hoverbikes were essentially flawless.

This just became very problematic for Riff's life expectancy. Does he have something to say that he possibly gleaned from 4UCity that might stay Schlock's paranoia, or is Torg going to do something stupid, or is none of these things going to happen?

Tune in tomorrow!

No! Their only hope is that Bun-Bun comes to the rescue!

So ... damn.

But how nice to see Harbinger from 4U City referenced. I am always thinking that Riff should talk more about what he has seen there.

Yes, you see, that is called a "joke", from latin jocus - jest, play. It is part of "humor". We use humor to ... ah, you wouldn't understand.

I think, to us (and to Riff) the stronger WHAM-question is:
How does Shankraft know about "Harbinger".
Of course, the answer is obvious but only states how close we already are to the 4U-scenario. (Reaction: "damn")

This comic also shows that Sasha was kind of protecting Riff and planning to use him for... something. Her reaction to Riff talking (Panel 5) is rather pissed. (Reaction: "yeah for Sasha, Damn for Riff")

And I really love how Schlock immediately (almost like an instinct) tries to hide when hearing Riff's voice. (Reaction: laugh)

Regards,

TCC

I agree, it's been immensely relevant. But it was also an intense trauma, hard enough to talk about plus being a person who doesn't like to talk about things in general

Insert a farside comic here:

Riff was never a very clever boy.
