Ch5 10
A little slow on the uptake there, Hasera. All the readers got what Gurtie was saying, but your head was stuck in those stupid stories of heroes, villains, maidens and… uh… love. Yes. Love. That’s what they call it.
For those of you who are artistic, there is a zine happening over at Comicadia. It’s open to members and non-members of the collective! Why not check out the details here?
Oh god, those dwarven inuendos are just hilarious and awesome
In the original script, I wrote out about 15 different things Gurtie could have said. I had to trim out some of them and we chose the three we thought would work best. Some of my favourites include:
No one’s dug you out.
Y’r gem ‘as yet t’be rubbed
Y’r nethers ‘ave nev’r been entered
Y’r cave’s not been spelunked.
Nay a person ‘as ventured int’ y’r depths
I would absolutely love to hear any ones you all may have come up with!
Y’r locks, ner been keyed yet. (fr the mecanaly inclined dwarves).
It is a sign of what a perv I am that I got every single one of those…and being a former medical type. (giggles) “tapped yer vein” BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Thanks guys.
“Pure of Heart” ? Yeaaah, no. Sorry Hasera, but we’ve SEEN you reading those stories.
A girl can dream, dammit!
I suspect there’s a (future) story behind why Hasera didn’t know what being “a pure maiden” meant, and why she’s so shocked by it. I mean, those trashy novels she reads must’ve touched on the subject once or twice.
Sometimes once or twice per chapter! Eh, eh! Nudge-Nudge, wink wink! Speaking of which. We’re going to be putting up a sort of excerpt from one of the actual books that a good friend of ours is penning on the Patreon. If you want to know exactly how lewd and low brow the Chronicles of Lark are, stay tuned!
right down there with Shakespeare?
Probably more akin to Chaucer – just with less spelling mistakes š
Well at lest the classics.
Is it possible she did not understand all the metaphors in all those books. Softcore novellas?
I think she’s just shocked that Gurtie would discuss it with her so bluntly. š
Why it oavices that Gurtie is not a vigen.
Bodice rippers tend to use a different class of euphemism, like “thrusting manhood”, “centre of her being” and “most precious part”
Wow. Virgin, and completely clueless on standard sex-related innuendo. Considering her best friend, I would have thought she’d have heard more of them!
Also: I would love to borrow that book Gurtie references in the alt-text. Those are always fun.
Lu is very… direct in her innuendo. The books are INCREDIBLY vague in the wording. While both constantly slam on the whole sex angle, they do so in such ways that Gurtie’s direct, but indirect method and naming conventions are lost on Hasera.
you’d think if that really resulted in some increase of power they would put more importance on it specifically for the combat oriented women
