Eliza gets home that night and immediately throws out her complete collection of the Adventures of Henry Barber and 3 notebooks of fanfiction
And then collects it all back 10 minutes later apologizing to the documents.
Nicola in the next to last panel is about the softest we've ever seen her!
We sure it's really her?
Maybe her and Nyree are working out Aces.
She's also looking more like the oldest sister than ever before- girl's got a bit of grey coming in
might be stress, like mal - the royal visit seems to have everyone on edge
Given the complete pig's ear the police made of security at the last Royal visit, she's right to be nervous.
To be fair to Eliza, Henry definitely started it with his "Police, eh? Shame."
Oh yeah. That burn is going to need a few packs of ice.
Aaa I dunno, I would think Harry would approve of the responsive sass. a little crispy but no hard feelings.
All our heroes are missing something very important. There's free wine and none of them are drinking it. And that's morally indefensible.
They're literally ALL on the clock.
Well, Wolfe isn't but he's actually drinking. Mal and Ben are acting more or less as guests to this shindig, unless I'm mistaken, so I don't think that would stop either of them from partaking so long as they don't get sloshed (it's like saying the Queen couldn't drink either). Isabella and Henry are also not technically employed in this venture, they just hopped on to Harry's case.
Nicola and Henry with the same smirk! Love it
Eliza's face in panel 3 is everything.
I've been reading this comic literally since the very first day it began and I'm so excited that I finally had a comment I wanted to leave and I actually could sorry I just am VERY EXCITED
Don't apologise, you're extremely correct and you should say it.
"Lass, if I'd told the truth, no-one would 'a believed a word!"
HOL UP- How did Henry get a granddaughter working in police if he doesn't entirely approve? Or the force doesn't approve of him? Seems Nicky's had enough of a rough family situation (what with the parents and all). I do hope he's joking.
please disregard, apparently I'm as bad at reading facial expressions in comics as I am in real life.
Why would she care if he didn't?
fair enough
Just reread the whole comic and its been so much fun! can't wait to see where this one goes
