Now we conclude this scene and soon Fetch will finally get some sleep. This day started at the beginning of last chapter, after all. How often do you see a single day cross more than a chapter? I guess that happens a lot in written fiction, but in comics? Probably not often. Maybe I innovated something here. Or maybe it’s sloppy writing?

Anyway, you will get to meet Fetch’s mom soon. She’s the whole reason Fetch bothered to come home in the first place.

↓ Transcript
PANEL 1
Fetch, Fiona, Naida

FETCH: So who is this Scotty Monroe putz?
FIONA: A real estate developer, a landlord, and a scumbag.
NAIDA: Oh, he’s worse than that!

PANEL 2
Close-up on Naida and Fiona.

NAIDA: No one knows for sure, but the rumor is he is not a true Fae, but a pretender with a fake lineage. Some says he’s not from the Otherworld at all, he comes from the bowels of Hell or summat like that.
FIONA: Bollocks.

PANEL 3

FIONA: Don’t fool yourself. He’s a Fae. Plenty of evil to spread around here. We don’t need foreign sources for it.
NAIDA: Well, I’m just sayin’ what I heard is all.
BRIDGET: Before spreading false rumors, you should really seek out credible sources.
LYDIA: Credible? Oh, what makes them “credible”? The patriarchy? White supremacy?

PANEL 4
Fiona and pixies squabble in background, while Fetch and Knob observe.

FIONA et al: No need to jump down my throat!
Fake news!
Are you calling me racist!
FETCH: Should we…?
KNOB: Hell no. Stay out of it. If things get out of hand, we can start a pub brawl to distract them.
