    Do. Not. Piss off the Bartender or fail to pay your tab.

    Nice Sleight of Hand skill there, Stabs.

      I think the ‘Quickdraw’ feat might have come into play, too. But yeah, *putting*them*back* is by far the more impressive maneuver!

      And of course Stabs isn’t gonna hold a grudge – she got to keep ALL the loot.

      I like that too. I always wondered things like, “What do halflings call dwarves? I mean, from their perspective, they’re obviously not ‘dwarf’ anythings…”

      WILLOW answered that for me, of course – halflings call humans ‘Stupid Daikini’, and humans tell halflings ‘Out of the way, peck!’ Any creator that cares enough to invent racist slurs for his made-up races is OK in my book.

    Nice to see Stabs doesn’t hold a grudge for being ditched in the dungeon.

    Where’d Cube and Rusty go?

      Cube and Rusty are chillin’ in the alley — why would they want to go into a bar?

        It’s good that they chose to wait in the alley. Two people walking into a bar is safe. Three is a setup for a joke. Four… I got nothin’ for four.

          Well, it’s not like the bar has much attraction for th’ Bug (not much iron), and Cube won’t fit through the door…

    I would think with that much steel on her person, Stabs is pretty safe from getting…stabbed.

      She’s likely to be Rusty’s favorite person ever though

    I want that Cloaker Cola sign.

    Also agree with Prestige. Stab’s prestidigitation skills with those Tennessee toothpicks are very scary. And what kind of martini that? tentacles on the rocks?

      That’s no martini. It’s a space station.

      Prestidigitation? Between that and identifying a PP as a cop from her smell, Stabs looks like she’s really a gnome and only claim to be a halfling. (Maybe to avoid “garden gnome” monikers.)

    I’m surprised no one picked up on the ‘BADGERing the witnesses’ in light of the crafted multi-magic item device…

    A guy walks into a bar.
    On the left side of the bar is a blonde, a brunette and a redhead.
    On the right side of the bar is a priest, a rabbi, and an imam.
    I the middle of the bar, is a horse, drinking a beer with a crazy-straw.
    The guy looks around and says “What is this? Some sort of joke?” and leaves.

      Yeah Belkar from order of the stick is a ranger, not a thief or assassin.

    So NO ONE noticed that the black chick (no racism there, just lazy to remember her name) is reaching for something in her purse? BADGER LAUNCHER VS KNIFE HAIL!

      Lazy is right, if you can’t even click the link to last week’s comic. Sheesh. She’s Prestige Perkins, practiced practitioner of practical prestidigitation.

      I saw. Figured she was going for another handful of Skittles.

      As for the badger gun, no contest. Stabs took out a caveful of beasties coming from all directions. Even if her purse was a fashionable Gucci bag of holding, it’s gonna take Prestige seconds she won’t have to pull the launcher out. Then, too, with a bag-o-tricks, I wouldn’t count on a badger appearing.

    Holding all those daggers by the tips…. hopefully just artistic license.

    Stabs and Izayoi Sakuya would make for the best knife show.

    I thought there was something familiar about Stabs, but now it’s clear.
    Shorty.
    “Sniff”
    “Snikt”
    Disappearing knives.
    Brown & Yellow outfit.
    Stabs is–
    Urk. My mistake, bub.
