Page Commentary No. 197

Gunwild: Holiday weekend over! So. Those would probably be good knives for the kitchen.

Psu: Something I learned from James Cameron's director commentary on True Lies, when you introduce a new character they should be doing what their job is. And also, a fun way to introduce someone is have their feet enter frame first. So here we have one of those cool low angle shots of Feti's calves, and she's breaking someone's arm.

Gunwild: Oh, I thought her job was "Elegantly wearing heels despite doing something that should preclude that."

Psu: Well, officially her job is to be like... wait what is her job?

Gunwild: She commands a pirate-huntin' vessel. But mostly she hurts people and is a fancier, haughtier Regency officer than Maddy.

Psu: Ah right right. I'm sure we'll go over more of that later when we go into the differences in her uniform design to Maddy. Instead on this page we can discuss that fun alien guy from the race whose name I forget.

Gunwild: I think we went with "Rathians" but why doesn't he need a breathing tube? WHY DOESN'T HE NEED ONE, PSU?!

Psu: OH MAN. Uh... UMMMMMMM..... Look. Sexy nurse units. I sure do love that costume.

Gunwild: I like that they have the hats. I don't know why those hats exist but I assume they enhance healing capabilities.

Psu: It's very advanced engineering. So hey, this page does a lot of things all at once! This would be our first major chapter since the big race, right? I think we drilled it in our heads that we should be doing a lot more things per page. And here we show that the shields aren't perfect. We also reintroduce the concept of a healing gel. Zuko is there for some reason. And we get to hint at a deeper connection between our main characters here.

Gunwild: "Dinky-di" is apparently SUPER old Australian slang... look, it makes a comeback in the future, okay? Words do that sometimes! Or at least, I'm counting on it, since I keep using 1940s hard boiled detective talk, and I don't want to think I'm on a one-way train to Palookaville.

Psu: I'm still working on bringing back "Radical."

Gunwild: Radicool.

Psu: Maybe we can work in, "you gellin?" For whenever the nurses show up with the medical gel.

Gunwild: Oh no, you shouldn't have said that, because now I actually wanna do that.

Psu: Like a felon.
