Tamara said:Yay, here’s the backstory we were promised! It’s a shame Dolores didn’t demonstrate some of her operatic abilities back there. I wonder what Joe was back then!
Tamara said:Yeah, no. I refuse to accept that that’s the Joe I’ve come to know. It seems as though Evey is trying harder than I am to refuse it and I honestly cannot blame him having been introduced to an up close and personal example of a lunatic. And what does Dzuna mean “that’s how Exvulnerum made its way into their lives”? Did one of the two have a literally cursed secret admirer lurking in the shadows or does the curse just get jealous every once in a while and seek the happiest, most successful person around?
Tamara said:And which one was the Penn Visla monument again? Hmm…
Tamara said:Ah, thank you for refreshing my memory at my convenience! Joe was quite the romantic back then, huh? Well, I guess some things never change…
Tamara said:And we’re reintroduced to the Dzuna we first came to know and perhaps the only real Dzuna we will ever know. Sigh. Does she have a backstory? Did something make her the way she is? Is there a curse guardian hub where a bunch of sarcastic deimons float around and hurl insults at each other all in good fun over a couple of the deimon version of beers? I know I’ve been saying this a lot lately but I can’t stop thinking it, what does she want (him) to do and why?!
Tamara said:Evey is finally, pardon my slang, woke after having been asleep for a long time.
Tamara said:That last panel though… Just the two of them standing/floating facing each other in a limbo of silence; truly seeing each other for the first time. Mixed feelings, so many mixed feelings.
Tamara said:Okay, alright. I suppose I’m going to have to pretend to share Evey’s concern for Amber and not secretly, selfishly want to see them together again soon. That’s definitely something I can do, yes. But hey, here’s to Evey making rational decisions again! I guess everyone is back to who they were in the beginning but with more experience so yay!
Tamara said:What does Dzuna want, what does Dzuna want, what does Dzuna want?! Why does she want it, why does she want it, why does she want it?! Why is she so desperate for him to seek Amber and give her the wonderful gift of an eternally painful curse?! What is she going to get out of it?! I need to know!
Tamara said:Ooo, who’s this badass girl we have here? Please tell me she’s going to be a feature very soon!
Dzuna has seen it all but I know that deep down, Evey takes her by surprise sometimes.
Tamara said:…Had that been her good side we have been seeing all along? I thought Evey was in the fire earlier but it turns out he’s just about to start feeling the heat! And out of everything he has said and done to her, she’s most angry about him realizing that he doesn’t need to pass the curse onto someone else?! She definitely has something to get out of it and I’m not going to sleep peacefully until I know exactly what that is.
NEXT READLOG POST: > here >Tamara said:End of chapter already?! I was so immersed in this one that I thought I was only a few pages in. Grr. You definitely should add more long-haired characters, particularly that one woman you just teased us with a few pages ago! We need to know who she is and what exactly she did to be remembered by Dzuna in the moment she was most angry with Evey!
I’m definitely looking forward to what the next chapter entails!
