Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary 398: On Approach. Post by: jmundt29 on May 01, 2015, 01:42:31 am Awesome. Sexy! Confusing. All in all, another spectacular issue of SJI.
The conversations in panels 1-3 seem fairly straightforward Nonetheless, panel 3 raises all sorts of really fun questions about the Mantis Squad. Panel 4 is murkier. The substance of Jacqui's comments makes sense, but her intended audience is something of a puzzle. When this started, she was talking to Erin. However, Erin seems understandably distracted at the moment. Mallory and Marliese appear to be trying to comfort Jacqui but they appeared to be otherwise engaged at the beginning of the conversation. So, context and intent are in question. Is Jacqui maybe verbalizing one of her first heartbreaks as a form of therapy independent of an audience? ??? Hmm. Bits of the conversation between Dani and Ein in panels five and six are also confusing. What is Dani's last question? "Are you still..."? Unsatisfied? Horny? Attracted to men at all? Under Johannes' influence? Any of these or a myriad of other possibilities could make sense. But, I can't tell if Ein is correctly anticipating Dani's question (whatever it is or could have been) or if she's merely realizing and/or admitting her own frustration. ??? Regardless, this is a sexy and entertaining installment. I love the set-up of Adrian as a prime candidate to give Ein some relief. ;D The possible similarities in the way both Kuppler brothers treat women is also interesting.

Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary 398: On Approach. Post by: jmundt29 on May 01, 2015, 01:32:50 pm Yes, this makes sense when paired with what she told Erin. However, Erin doesn't appear to be paying attention now, and Mallory and Marliese were otherwise occupied during the first part of the conversation. So, I'm wondering who is Jacqui speaking to here? Is she verbalizing an early heartbreak and an audience is irrelevant?
The real doozy is the last third of Dani and Ein's conversation. Ein's last response seems like it makes sense to Dani, so she could have anticipated the question. Or Ein could be changing the subject to deflect suspicion. However, if she's telling the truth in panel #1, that sort of seems unlikely. If panel #1 is unvarnished truth, then it would seem that Dani's programming session with her held. I love the set-up and it promises to be just as sexy as what's already happened, and that's indescribably awesome.;D However, I still find that last question and answer puzzling.;) ETA--And the pop-up text has fun with panel 2. ;D Waiting eagerly for Tuesday as events progress toward the milestone. :) Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary 398: On Approach. Post by: Haight on May 01, 2015, 01:37:33 pm I'm hoping that the threesome (out of a larger harem) of Jacqui, Miriam, and Adrian works a bit better.
Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary 398: On Approach. Post by: jmundt29 on May 01, 2015, 02:14:42 pm Well, we do have one possible glimpse of a threesome or more out of the harem working out pretty well. It wasn't that trio, though. Still, I am also hopeful that the grouping of Pearl, Jacqui, Adrian, and Erin works out well. Milestone coming up soon. ;D ;)
ETA--These are my favorite kind of pop-up or alt-texts. ;) Just like the comments about Mallory's eyeshadow on the Night of the Watch. |
