Blaming protesters for their problems is old hat for people in power, so it’s no coincidence that this page lands on a day following a weekend of nationwide demonstrations against the abuse of power in the US; it was inevitable. I write this stuff months in advance, planned it out even longer ago; like the content related to immigration, civil war, and That Orange Guy, these things are really responding to ongoing problems, not really specific events.

I hope you are all safe and secure. We have a pandemic, a recession, massive unemployment, and social unrest, plus curfews and rioting militarized police forces. I recommend donating to at least one of the organizations Rolling Stone lists here to help out those who need bail and legal representation: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/george-floyd-protests-bail-funds-police-brutality-black-lives-matter-1008259/

PANEL 1: Close up of Scotty Monroe, thoroughly soaked, shaking his fist.

SCOTTY: This is sabotage! Treason! Perfidy! Libel! Scandal!

PANEL 2: News footage of condo spouting sewage, as the reporter narrates off-camera.

REPORTER: Monroe could not explain the failure of the condominium’s plumbing system.
But the sewage soaked developer has a theory.

PANEL 3: Scotty, raging.

SCOTTY: Protesters! The anarchists who disrupted our ceremony! It has to be them!
They mucked up the pipes!

PANEL 4: A couple of soaked elven lord and lady talk to the soaked reporter, who nods.

NEWS: Monroe’s investors are not convinced.
LORD: Mr. Monroe shall be hearing from my solicitor, mark my words.
LADY: Frankly, I’ve always thought the Unseelie Courts were a cesspool….

PANEL 5: Fetch’s living room. Fetch, Fiona, and the Pixies, wrapped in towels and bathrobes after a shower, watch TV. Knob is with them.

REPORTER: Several signed lessees have filed a class action suit to invalidate their contracts. Opening the condos is now delayed to an undetermined date in the future.
FIONA: Hahaha! Serves him right!
PIXIES: What a yob!
FETCH: Huh.
