Even Friday knows you should only be burning bridges, not burning Basphomys. Also don't bring a nuke to knife fight as "intimidation," while forgetting to bring your own knife. ---- Vote for Sluggy Freelance at Top Web Comics. Remember to vote if Gwynn is screwed or saved.

Well, this one was a bit of a rollercoaster. The beginning appeared to point one way, and the end pointed in the opposite direction. Still uncertain which way it will fall though.

Well. Dream or no dream, at the very least we can agree that she’s going crazy and needs some chillaxing on fashion rancher. Yay avoidance!

The sixth panel is the most terrifying since Pete started this arc ...
*WHAT* has Kiki got??

Oof. I am genuinely not sure which way we've gone here -- though given that it's much worse as reality, I'm leaning toward accepting Pete's narrative at face value.
Interesting that Gwynn's eyes are consistently creepy for this whole strip -- despite the normalcy of the rest of her appearance.

Strange, Kiki was in the last dream. This is feeling like a Nightmare on Elm Street where you never know if you are really awake yet.

Pete must be having a ball screwing with us. with regard to the bug being able to reach out through dreams. first he seems to need the power of the book (of which there is only the page unless... spec) and second, gwynn's musings (but maybe she's just stir crazy?)

The second one is certainly pertinent, but K'Z'K was able to reach out in dreams when they were stuck in a scroll before the book was made. He needed Farahn's permission to able to do it, apparently, which is why he likely can't now (doesn't have Riff's permission), but he doesn't need a book. https://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?ch ... 2021-04-216th panel makes it clear he already has the power and this was right at the beginning of their being trapped.

Is it wrong to be reminded of Willows power incontinence from Buffy the Vampire Slayer? We're not gonna have an out of control witch on our hands, are we?
