Heheh, had fun drawing Tanna in this one. This is the first time we get to see Tanna and Elon interact without Myari there to take over the conversation. THIS IS WHAT A NON-WORRIED/STRESSED OUT ELON LOOKS LIKE… kinda strange.
He’s such a fanboy. XD
BTW, if you have a Nintendo 3DS and want to exchange friend codes so we can be awesome together mine is 1289-8213-7047! Post yours in the comments or email it to me at NaarieKermie@earsforelves.com. I need more friends!!








4th panel. “Those move!”
Maybe: “moves!” lol
Also. The maybe I got the wrong idea Tanna’s expression in the last panel is totally wrong. I thought she’d be stricken be the reminder that the is but a nobody in the warrior business, but right now it seems that she’s cool with it. If fact, rather happy that she’s nothing.
It is “those moves.” Don’t make me doubt myself! I WILL BE THE EFE WORD NINJA!!!
Duuude, look again. Methinks you may be looking at the wrong panel.
The typo is there, man, it’s there.
… CURSES! FOILED AGAIN. I’ll get you next time, English language!!!!!
I think Tanna’s reaction might look off because she hasn’t actually reacted yet! With the leaves blowing by behind her, doesn’t it look like she just froze completely with the last expression that happened to cross her face made ice (in this case, it happened to be a wide, friendly smile)? I wouldn’t change it, because I think it’s funnier this way–I’m sure the volcano that is now looming silent and ominous over the uknowing village of Elon will explode to bring fiery destruction soon enough.
Either that, or it may just crumble inwards on itself without Elon ever noticing the impact of his words. Anyway, the fact that Tanna went into statue mode shows that they DID make an impact.
I understand the whole leaves-blowing-by effect, but I don’t get the impact that she’s frozen. For some reason. Maybe it’s a smiling face blocking it a bit. If she were to have reacted then she’d at least wipe off the smile and stand there, smitten.
Just commenting to say how much I’m enjoying you guys (here in this thread and lower down the page) analyzing and discussing that one panel. It’s kinda cool.
Ouch. That was such a burn! Do them elves have some magical burn cream to use? Kinda wondering how Tanna would respond.
Something tells me a bunker might possibly be needed.
If they did have burn cream it would have to be magically because everything is explained with magic.
MAGIC
I love Elon so much. He is absolutely adorable, but that was mean. He could’ve just left it at “That would be against tradition”.
Also, I love Tanna’s clothes here.
I enjoy making Tanna’s clothes… even though they can be a little tricky!! I want her attire to still appear a bit Elven but shes’s not the type to wear something impractical or overly feminine. So I’ve got to tomboy-up my normal Elven designs without going overboard. Dancing the line!
Guess who’s gonna go CRACKDOWN on Elon lol.
TY for the strip Archmage and Naarie
AND thank you for the thanks and appreciation! It’s a nice feeling to know people care about us as people and not just comic-creating machines.
Elon’s fanboying is adorable and strange at the same time
Great comic, as per usual, but I agree that Tanna’s reaction in the last panel is a bit off.
I’m glad people are at least finding it adorable! I wasn’t sure how people would react to him. Adorable? I’ll take it!
I think the last panel worked quite well. The smile still there does seem a Little odd, but I didn’t even notice that until I saw all these comments and went and looked again.
And I second that comment on Tanna’s clothes – so cool!
I left the smile in to take some of the seriousness out. I didn’t want the panel to appear as heav… hopefully more lighthearted. They’re just a couple of friends ribbing on each other.
((hopefully that’ll be clearer with the next page??))
Oh, Elon… As cute as your fanboying is, you’ve known Tanna for all of your 15 years… Don’t you know what kind of fury you might be unleashing with that harsh statement!? I expect her eyes to be glowing red under those bangs, at this moment (which would make the frozen smile work). It’s obvious those words cut deep, and the wind is only pushing them further in.
Good page, Archmage & Naarie.
I love how poetic you make that sound.
And thanks for the compliment! As always I’ll take most of the credit! *yoinks and runs*
Elon is so cute. :3 I just want to hug him.
And wow. I feel sorry for Tanna. Don’t worry girl! You’re still awesome.
He’s like a little puppy!! X3
Just to say, I totally was the first to call on Elon’s fanboying. ^_^
Love this strip, I wonder if Tanna will ever let on how hurt she is by Elon’s words.
You win! Credit is given!
*waits for Tanna to pull off some Mortal Kombat moves*
FINISH HIM
How does one define a warrior? Do they have to go out and kill a bear with their bare hands or something?
Yes, one must kill: a bear, a wolf, an eagle, a snake, and a penguin. Then one becomes…
A Warrior
You forgot the pheasant.
Drat… and I thought the Penguin was going to be difficult.
Ah. Like so many of us (myself included) Elon has a man-crush on Luero. <3 Who wouldn't? But that last panel? OUCH. LOL. I love Elon's explanations of Luero's fighting styles. <3
Yeah, just noticed that you had 2 posts that ended up in spam. Wasn’t sure which one you wanted so I guessed.
Do either of you (Archmage, Naarie) have a PS3? Just a thought.
I currently have a 3DS, DS, Gameboy Color, PS3, PS2, Gamecube, and a N64. (I used to have a Xbox 360 but it died.
)
I… I like videogames.
lol dont feel too bad… once a gamer always a gamer.
Hehe, and that’s just what I own currently. Throughout my life I’ve owned every single version of the Gameboy, almost every Nintendo home console, every version of the Playstation and at one point a PSP.
I’m not sure whether I should be proud or ashamed…
Why should you be ashamed that you’ve personally given almost (does math) $2300 for hardware, and then some in software to Nintendo alone?
Yes, though right now I’m trying to save up the cash to get the PSP Vita. That and the new BlazBlue iteration.
Cool, so how about we share our PSN accounts with the rest of the community?
Sure, mine is Crimson_Asterisk. Until FF13-2 comes out, I’m just on Netflix. I would pick up Skyrim, but I really don’t want to disappear for that long a time right now.
PS3 FTW!
Mine is an0alien. You might see me playing the ACR multiplayer sometimes, or GT5.
Ooooh, Elon can be snarky when he wants to, huh? Unless he just doesn’t realize the impact of what he just said… I really like Tanna’s shirt in this page too. Wonderful job, as always guys! I get the feeling that EFE is going to be one of the only things keeping me alive after next week when I start year 11.
Good luck!
Glad to be your lifesaver. We try.
Thank you! It helps that I picked easy subjects: three kinds of science and ancient history. All I have to worry about is stupid science teachers.
Can’t be that stupid, otherwise, How’d they become teach- Ok, I couldn’t finish that sentence without laughing, like anything about the American school system is competent.
I’m a part of the Australian school system, actually. Though from what I’ve seen/heard over the years, there’s not much difference. A few of my teachers/amigos are competent, but not as many as there should be. Woe is the education system, I suppose.
The good teachers always go to the district pet schools or higher paying jobs. My favorite teacher was Junior year English. He left the next year for a higher paying job at a private school
Oh man I forgot to press “Post Comment” Don’t I feel silly. Oh well, I feel sorry for Tanna, It’s like she is talking to a kid. Making noises like. “Ka-Boom” And “HIYA!” And let us not forget “KAMA-HAMA-HA!!!” Ten bonus points to know ware the last quote is from. No cheating!
I always thought it was kame-hame-ha… Dragon Ball Z, by the by. My brother is obsessed.
Who knows how it is spelled. The Japanese are crazy making up wired words for EVERY anime. 10 bonus points goes to KatieBug.
It’s not a made up word. It’s the name of an ancient Hawaiian dynasty. Dragonball used it because the old kings of Hawaii were said to have control over the winds.
0_0 you learn something new everyday.
Ouch!… Hey, that was mean!
this comic is amazing…… just saying
We like comments like this, just saying.
I hate Spam. In all forms and flavors. Sorry about earlier, I have no idea how that happened.
No worries. I’d rather our spam filter be over sensitive than let everything through.
so many comments…i feel that i must say hi i return
and all the pages i missed look awesome
Welcome back!!! I missed yooooooou!! *tacklehug*
YAYS! *hugs back*
