Good times with old friends.
ECCC Overstock Book Sale!
For a very limited time, you can grab Vol 2, Vol 3, or Vol 5 of Widdershins for only $3 shipping within the United States, instead of the usual $11 I have to charge. That’s a pretty huge saving! There’s not too many of these going, so grab one while you can!
This only applies to Vols 2-5 individually, not the multibook pack or Vol 1. Cheaper shipping applies only to America, not Canada or other nearby countries, many apologies!
Cast: Henry Barber, Isabelle Holt, Ms Acedia

Tell me about it.
Ah just like old times - being held at gunpoint by a henchperson. Don't just stand there complaining Henry, get her to explain the Evil Plan. Or maybe he's waiting until she takes them to The Villain.
Sloth is one step ahead, though. She doesn't HAVE an evil plan . . . too lazy to come up with one. "Ah, it will sort itself"
Or possibly, "All I have to do is bring them to the person who did the planning and will now do the other things in the plan."
Hi am belifink dot mizter Sturzkamph has been a hench-jaeger before... he seems to know der ropes...
Ms. Acedia makes Sloth sound badass! I thought that was impossible. Ah well, I guess Acedia's greatest advantage is that people underestimate her.
You might say that's sloth's most defining attribute: great potential, seldom used.
Ms. Acedia herself seems much more impressive than Sloth itself, to me... She actually does work, if only when motivated to by others.
He is pulling a "Yoda". Pretending to need a cane, and then suddenly --- PSSSssiooo Zwhoo Zwhoo Smock BANG Claaaang Ochiniiiiii !!! ---
If you have to heavily lean on telekinetic abilities to be able to move freely, you do need a cane. Yoda could go full badass, but he has to seriously make use of the force to do so. I don't think Henry can quite do that.
Hiya, Acedia. Wow, you're not nodding off in a pub... Weird. ;P
Ummm - did something happen while i was watching Mal?
Ms. Acedia kidnapped Henry and Izzy at the end of Find the Lady.
Ah. That's right.
I forgetted.
Dang. The crushing pain of an awesome archive binge coming to a stop. Can't wait for more though!
Glad to see I'm not the only one who binged this. XD
Happy to have you both here! Hope it was a worthwhile binge!
/Definitely/
I am still pluggin' along in my binge-fest! I'm from the fuuuutuuuure! (June. 2018!)
( I do so love this comment community <3)
I'm very lucky to have you guys!
Can the pair of them hold a tune?
Henry & Isabelle: sing lullaby
Miss Acedia: My greatest weakness! Must... must find somewhere comfortable... zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Join us soon for our next thrilling episode of Acedia: The Big Sleep ...actually, let's not. She looks so peaceful down there. >:=)>
Patience is a Virtue, Ms. Acedia.
I suspect what you had was a willingness to lay back and let everyone else run around and did stuff while you napped - until you were reactivated and forced out of retirement.
Perhaps her virtue will turn around and bite whoever's holding her leash.
Guess he won't be jumping out of windows any time soon. Darn.
can we talk about how she hasn't changed her clothes in over 20 years?
It's a different dress! I didn't have to do all those polka dots before :|
She's just too lazy to tell the dressmaker to change the cut?
It's almost like she picks a thing and lazily sticks to it whether it is a good idea or not :o
.....Very like it. >.>
Acedia has never heard of trigger discipline, apparently. I guess it wouldn't be like her to take more than the bare minimum of time and effort to learn firearm safety... that, or she's banking on harnessing the wrath of readers who notice.
But... Patience is one of the heavenly virtues!
Does this mean they could draw on Ms. Acedia to defeat Wrath?
