    It's been four years since they first met... have to wonder what shenanigans have happened in the intervening years!

      Well, last time Nyree visited she wasn't wearing a dress long enough to cover her knees. https://www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/september-22nd-2020 Not sure I'd call that shenanigans, but maybe Nicola puts up with enough as a police officer that her bar for shenanigans is set really low.

        Nyree also flirted with her. I'd call that shenanigans.

    Hmm, just tried to click through the character tags to see the last time they met but the character tag pages seem to have a page 1 but no link to a page 2? So cannot see more than 15 pages? I am sure they used to have all the thumbnails, don't know if it is an issue on my end or with the website.

      The same issue comes up for me, so I think it must be the website.

    GYAAAAHHHHHH ANOTHER POWERFUL PAGE ! Ben + Nyree friends hooray! 3 banger Mal expressions in a row! Ben teasing Mal about him being nice!! Nyree + Nicola yayyy

    • Anonymouse 3 years ago archived

      Nycola? Nicree? Lots of awkwardly pronounced ship name potential there

      • DanSch 3 years ago archived

        Fyree? If we may loosely base it on the "burning" and "smokey" nicknames Nyree has given Nicola.

        There is also Reecola, but that sounds like the name of certain Swiss cough drops

    Which raises the question, has anyone ever been down the hole to see what’s there? I can’t imagine that some wizard hasn’t tried it in search of knowledge and power. And then there’s always ‘here, hold my beer’. But has anyone ever come back?

    • Agi 3 years ago archived

      I suspect it goes straight to the other end. Or rather: straight to the heap of dead things in the middle, where everything gets pulled by gravity eventually.

  • Sturzkampf 3 years ago archived

    That’s no way for a mere uniformed police officer to talk to an important foreign dignitary .

    • Mturtle7 3 years ago archived

      It is if that's how the important foreign dignitary wants things! And this is DEFINITELY Nyree's preferred method of flirting.

    Mal may have become more well-adjusted in the last four years, but I see he hasn't gotten any better at taking compliments from his friends!

  • MoeLane3 3 years ago archived

    Two hours. Forty minutes, if the broom closet's unlocked.

    • Major Gray 3 years ago archived

      I give them 30 minutes, tops.

  • 183231bcb 3 years ago archived

    Oh heck yeah, Nicola has to contend with two witches now (and judging by the cover page, probably a third one soon.)

  • JWLM 3 years ago archived

    I wonder what Ben smells like to Nyree...

    • Anonymouse 3 years ago archived

      Lemi Shine and boot polish xD

    • baronhaynes 3 years ago archived

      Mal sees kind of a glowing energy blob around wizards (with some of their personality coming through in how it moves, Ben's aura is smaller than Sid's but it's more focused), so I wonder if the smell is less distinct to Nyree as well. She seemed to get a sweet smell from Sid in Chapter 9 though.

  • Salty 3 years ago archived

    Aw, twoo wuv.

  • Jess-a-men 3 years ago archived

    You did not feel like being fancy. You don't even know what that feels like, Mal. You've never felt that in your entire life. If you were looking at somebody who was feeling like being fancy, you'd look over their head and go: "the fuck's that emotion supposed to be."

  • baronhaynes 3 years ago archived

    It's such a neat character evolution to see happy, well-adjusted, optimistic Ben throughout this chapter

    • Sturzkampf 3 years ago archived

      Don’t worry. I’m sure Kate will soon fix that.

      • Anonymouse 3 years ago archived

        🤣 poor Ben he needs therapy

  • Angel 3 years ago archived

    Oh will you quit snarling and just kiss her already woman?

    • Mturtle7 3 years ago archived

      The snarling is important foreplay!

  • Kate Ashwin 3 years ago archived

    hate to push back another comic update to next week but i'm gonna have to, i'm sorry. won't compromise on quality and this page requires a lot of detail to work properly, and i'm always very slow after a huge convention!

    • Anonymouse 3 years ago archived

      No worries! I would much rather have a late page than a page you're not happy with :) Hope you had fun at the con! (I'm American on a budget so I didn't make it to this one, but it is on my bucket list!)

  • Anonymouse 3 years ago archived

    These interactions and expressions are killing me, I love how Ben's justification for not murdering the twins is "awkwardness" lol
