379, surely?

I'm liking Jacqui's brand of black magic ;-)

Jacqui's move, huh?  This could get very interesting. ;D

So is this where we find out where Jakob's been holed up hiding?

That is probably the fifth deepest tissue massage I've seen.

No dialogue? Interesting choice.

I want to know what Erin's expression in the last panel means.

Good pick of a title
You do not need dialogue (ooo, aaaaa yes)
Erin's get a read and can be bad.
May be where Jakob's is hiding

HUh, no, there's dialogue. Hit refresh!

I think the look could just mean she's stunned.  Frankly, I think that could be quite promising.

ETA--And the text bears me out.  How 'bout that.;D

ETA--I thought the pop-up text would be a quip.  I think it's lyrics.  I don't recognize them and my basic Google Search pulled up "Somebody I Used to Know" which doesn't sound like our author's taste.

No, I love that song! Have you seen the video?

I think the next logical question is--why isn't Jacqui as gifted with her mouth as her fingers?  Wouldn't whoever she did that to be...er, eager to teach her the finer points of female pleasure?  We know she's a quick study.  Was the experience to intense for any girl....um, woman to ask for a repeat performance?  Or was that so intense, that her former playmates never wanted to venture beyond it?

I think it was well-established that she was as gifted with her mouth, just not experienced.

Apologies for bad phrasing.  Yes, she's exceptionally talented with her mouth.  Why isn't she at least as experienced with her mouth as with her fingers where women are concerned?  I just can't square her talent with her lack of experience.

Apparently, any time in the past two decades, it would have taken five seconds for any one of (one would presume) dozens of besotted young women to get her to teach herself.  How did that never happen?  Did others ask over the years, and she begged off with the "Guys think it's hot when girls kiss" explanation, and they left it there?  The combination of the intense pleasure she could bring and the intense fear she could strike encouraged her potential lover to drop the subject? ???

Oh, and by the way, the fact that she knows this trick opens a number of exciting, confusing possibilities.  Could she have been repressing part of her bisexuality?  Might that be programming from The Gig? ???  Someone else's intervention or interference?

Well, it could be anything, but this is as good a time as any to mention that in SJI, as in real life, people do not always say what they mean, mean what they say, recall events accurately, or present past events in a completely transparent way.

I read this (well, "read" this) this morning and didn't even notice there was no dialogue. That'll be those post-hypnotic suggestions again.

The title on the html page is Finger Puppet, singular, which I only mention because my first thought was that perhaps the plural was relevant to the last panel.

Post by: jmundt29 on February 27, 2015, 05:53:54 pm
Is the title meant to be singular or plural, then? ???


Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary 379: Finger Puppets.
Post by: GodWilling on February 28, 2015, 01:27:07 am
It maybe doesn't matter. But the intended title is presumably plural since that's in the image and on this thread.

My initial take on the final panel was that Erin was feeling what Dani was feeling, as a result of the ceremony earlier. That's what I thought the plural title was hinting at.

But obviously the last panel could mean something else. There are inevitably lots of possibilities.

May be let go more of Danielle past history

Huh?  We've seen Jacqui's skill but we don't have concrete evidence yet that she's been involved in magic.  I think Dani's reaction is just a factor of Jacqui's talent.  Incidentally, how did Jacqui describe this maneuver to Dani on the Night of the Watch?  How would our author describe it?

Double fisting. Please use extreme caution when Googling. :)

And it's "Finger Puppets," plural, now fixed.

True.
