I don’t think Nareth’s feeling very proud of his accomplishment…
As far as Kei’s concerned, this is a step, but only a step. She was impressed with what he managed to do (and perhaps feels a bit of guilt as well), so she’s willing to give him a hand now, but not impressed enough to change her mind about him. She’s not even using his name, after all. I’m only mentioning that now so when she goes right back to insulting him, you at least have an understanding of where that’s coming from.
Where is Agneris, anyway? I mean, he’s probably off directing things, but it’s a lot more fun to imagine that he saw Nareth was upset and quietly moved off somewhere to avoid it.
Thanks for reading! See you next week!
Hehe it sort of seems like Kei is frustrated with Nareth in the one panel. My guess is she’s thinking something along the lines of… ‘why can’t he act like a ‘normal’ human?’. Seeing as Nareth goes against a lot of how she feels about humans.
That’s a pretty good assessment of it. Along with maybe a dash of “crap, now I have to be nice to him.” 😀 Haha!
the look in his eyes in panel 2……….:( breaks my heart
Yeah. I think saying “it’s been a long day” would be a pretty massive understatement. 🙁
