Update on the House Sturmvoraus embroidery!
Tumblr media
Chugging along, continuously undermining myself by making changes on the wings because 99/100ths of the way through them I pulled a me and started wondering if I should do a different stich. But not being able to decide what stitch.

I'd like to think that a few centuries after the events of today's Girl Genius page, the phrase "sending a cat to meet the king" has become slang for malicious compliance

the girl genius official romance plot has gotta be one of the funniest ways anyones ever done it
youve got Character A and Character B, who were absolutely set up to be Destined By The Narrative since chapter 1
except the writers accidentally left the door cracked open and a stray boyfriend slunk in and started knocking kitschy figurines off the counter until he got fed dinner, and anyway I guess he lives here now?

Yeah, that gambit was not well thought out Martellus
Tumblr media
reasons Krosp is the best (but not the funniest): Krosp really drives home that he can't manipulate her into doing more or less anything, especially here. Since he's formally her Leige, then there's no real conflict of interest or appearance of unusual deference. also unlike to stab or be stabbed nor to make Agatha look unduly beholden.
but the funnier options:
Tarvek- would turn into a poison tasting party and that just isn't the diplomatic look that Advantages Agatha to the crowd Tweedle brought. Also his relationship with Agatha is yet informal, so it would be improper for him to represent her in this, potentially even causing a confused impression of their intended relative power (in either direction). Would be so funny though, to treat this manipulation with a different acknowledged storm king! that sure is his own rank or higher!
Zeetha- biggest problem is that she might stab him. He's an Oaf and that would work against him. Also the fact that she's such a foreign princess (and a princess at that, not a queen) would make her position tenuous for the peanut gallery. Same basic dig though- it's like he forgot there were other royals in Agatha's entourage.
Bang- indisputably the funniest option and fully a queen, if one who's purview is a little confused at this point. Would Stab Him for Sure. Would definitely send a message to the 50 family schemers Tweedle brought, but probably not the right one. Again not formally associated with Agatha and so a bit inappropriate, but also just so intensely not what he was aiming for that it's hilarious.

In retrospect, I should have been suspicious about the fact that the plot of Girl Genius was moving so quickly.

The joke is that only Agatha gets grawlixes when she swears instead of using cute fantasy cusses. Girl what are you saying under there where did you learn that.

Agatha knows how to send a message, and that message is 'eat shit and die mad about it'.

i am so obsessed with how like. taken as read the ot3 are at this point. like on the one hand it feels like they've been building up to this for ages but on the other hand it kind of feels like i blinked and we skipped right past some Major Turning Point where everything got spelled out and we're just already in firmly Established Relationship-land. obviously tarvek is too well-protected for anyone to assassinate openly, look how angry his boyfriend and girlfriend are at the idea of anyone threatening him. at this point i'm half-convinced agatha's just going to refer to her boyfriends in passing to someone else and no one's even going to comment on it until van finds out twenty pages later and immediately starts making everyone pay up

99% of fictional empires: Evil, meant to echo the imperialistic bullshit of real-world atrocities and the horrible history of colonialism. You know it's bad and meant to be bad.
The Wulfenbach Empire, AKA the Pax Transylvania: WOULD YOU ALL PLEASE JUST STOP KILLING EACH OTHER I DON'T EVEN WANT TO BE IN CHARGE I DO NOT WANT AN EMPIRE I WANT TO RETIRE AND RAISE MY SON JUST STOP VOLUNTEERING TO HELP THE LADY THAT WANTS TO MIND-CONTROL THE ENTIRE CONTINENT WHY ARE YOU ALL LIKE THIS
