My headcanon mill churned up something even more cruel: Emil accidentally causes the damage while trying to shield Lalli from whatever will first looks like it's going to cause it.

PS: Writing the above down made me think of this, if anyone has four minutes to kill (sorry, not sorry):

That would be so so sad, but if Emil brings Lalli back alive, then it's okay overall. As long as they both make it.

Watching that scene again gave me chills. I never considered that [HTTYD spoilers I guess?]
Spoiler: show
Toothless might have accidentally caused Hiccup to lose his leg while trying to save him! I always just assumed it was because he wasn't quite fast enough.
Butter good.

Waaaait. The embroidery on Lalli's tunic is red now? I realised it only after the stream, yes
Eh? I'm almost sure it has always been blue no matter what

Hmmm, quite, good catch.  Maybe we'll just chalk it up to being an image out of continuity?

Of course, we have no choice here  ;D  But I do hope it will be explained, I'm bad at speculating and the suspense is killing me

One headcanon I’ve developed is that the design of mages’ clothing in the dreamspace can fluctuate—not dramatic changes, but small ones like the color of an accent piece or some other detail. I have noticed slight variations in Lalli’s dream clothing between some different scenes, which it’s entirely possible is due to Minna drawing it differently, but I like my explanation for preserving continuity (plus I think I saw that it was confirmed in one of the streams that mage’s clothes don’t have real-world counterparts, which gives this theory a little bit more credibility? Maybe?)  :)

I tried to track down when, exactly, the color had changed. Conclusion:

Blue version is last seen on page 909, during the brief glimpse of Lalli in Emil's dreamspace. The lining on Lalli's tunic has been more or less red from the Chapter 21 cover onwards.

That would make a lot of sense given Minna’s statement in the stream the other day that the dream clothes are subconsciously (unconsciously?) created. I’m curious to know why the lining changed recently, but I also don’t want to attempt a psychoanalysis :P

Lalli has never looked more beautiful than during this swimming sequence.

For me he's always been a pretty boy  :P
On the other note: in the archive with thumbnails (http://www.sssscomic.com/mainimages/) there's already a thumbnail for the next page. I see an arm above the water on it. Promising

It occurs to me: it's interesting that Lalli thinks 'stupid Emil, he should have left me' rather than 'stupid Emil, he shouldn't have shot that first one!'

That is . . . one really impressive page.
