Exactly. I mean, from the overall style of the comic I'd rather exclude that things like amputation and main character death could actually happen, but there's not much more to really discard the possibility.
I guess the question about Tuuri now is: IS she infected? If she's not, great. If she is, how is she going to be cured (because I'm in denial and refuse to consider the idea she can't)? I wouldn't rely on Mikkel, he seems like a pretty
lame simple doctor. Also, any kind of Onni intervention, regarding Tuuri or otherwise, is unlikely. He acted as a deus ex machina a bit too much, that's why he's knocked out and I think he's gonna stay that way.
Another question is: what the hell is Reynir doing right now?! Is he having a major freakout somewhere in the tank? Or is he bursting into everybody's dreams through the whole Scandinavia, just kicking doors open and screaming?
Oh, and Sleipnope. Sleipnope would certainly be a good enough reason to draw 9 consecutive pages of absolute panic.
I think we've all been panicking. At least for me, this being the busiest time of my working year, I haven't much free time in which to panic! I guess we could always distract ourselves with making art, fanfic, cosplay or just conversation. Ironically, I won't have a chance to actually see the first new page next week, at least not until very late in the evening, since that is the day I have a garden club visiting my garden, and I'm still clearing up storm damage.
Well, at least a garden club seems like a relaxed thing which can keep you sane during the day...
