....I might pet it. You never know with me.
The desire now to draw Tareth with a pet tentacled horror is very strong, and it's your fault.

That could be either adorable or horrifying!
"Hey, Severian, look what I got!"

I made up an adorable tentacled race of critters once; now I want to draw them again! Maybe I will.

I hadn't noticed before, but Severian's freckles kinda make him look like a leopard. :P Awesome.

....Sev doesn't have freckles, actually. >u>; Those happened more recently...

I /thought/ those looked like suction cup marks!

Ahahahahaha, yes, someone got it! XD

OMG.. I can't believe I didn't think of that! Wow awesome job!

So I like the comic for the comic but... I get way super excited when any actual signing goes on. XD And mysterious freckles! I'm curious now... ^^

Ahahaha, thanks! MAN I cannot even tell you how hard the sign for "RUN" turned out to be to draw. Like, it looks so simple, and yet I redrew it so many times.

Ahahahaa, I know, right? As if hands are complicated enough to draw, let's make them do strange wiggly poses! XD

I take it that guy doesn't like magic much?

I love how all that text in panel four is pared with the sign for RUN.

I am SO PLEASED that the shouty man has SPIT bubbles instead of just word bubbles. SO FOREVER PLEASED.

So, is Severian currently doing magic subconsciously or as something that just always happens in the background,
or
is the guy referring to the magic of transforming back into..."human"? If the latter, dang, he is a big jerk, just saying. He could have just said, don't do any further magic.
Not that he hasn't been a big jerk since he showed up in the comic, mind you.
As for the necessity of stopping magic, I assume that it throws off the tracking spell or something?

It looks to me like he doesn't recognize sign language, and thinks the funny wiggly things Severian is doing with his hands is magic.

Ah, good point, that would make sense.
Pretty funny, actually. :P

Yeahhhhhh there are a lot of much nicer ways Shouty-man could have said "no more casting."
Ahahaha, though I like Randy's explanation a lot, too. XD

That Aberrant hunter's expression in panel one is hilarious. Severian needs to punch that guy in the face. XD
And if I saw a thing with tentacles like that... Running would be a really good idea. Well, I defiantly wouldn't want to pet it.
