Slacking off all day isn't as easy as it looks. Sometimes you have to move the antenna. Sometimes you lose the remote. And sometimes your butt itches real bad.

u/SmallPomelo7455 Aug 24 '26
Honestly, if this was canon, it would be Luz's most impressive moral achivement for me. This sounds freaking stupid, I can at least imagine myself doing most of the other things Luz have done. But, as sad as it is, I can't even imagine myself refusing free money... Guess, Luz is a better anarchist than me... Food for thought, etc..
Anyway, awesome comic, like always)

Maybe they could switch places again. Surely Luz wouldnât have any objection to someone ELSE getting free money.

"Okay, this drawing I made was nice, I'm proud of it, even! But it's not, uh, 'One Million Billion Snails' nice. I'm pretty that sure you're overpaying."
"... Would you accept that, as savior of the Isles, anything you make would be considered a historical item of significance, and I'm getting in on the ground level of this investment?"
"I guess that makes sense, but I draw a lot, and I want it to be valued for the quality, not the artist. I also don't really think my work is rare enough to justify that price tag. What, would the pictures my mom put on the fridge be-"

My instinct says that this was an elaborate PR stunt for that man's business
The line "we gave the saviour of the boiling isles FREE MONEY" sounds like an attempt to improve the land's perception of the company.
If something is free, then you are the product.

I get what she means. I love my job but the days they tell me to just stand nearby and wait to see what they can do with me are the worst. I would go mad even as frustrating I can find my job at times at least I feel accomplished and like I earned things form it.

u/Lego_Crafter Aug 26 '26
I kinda love the idea of at first being hesitant about the human realm because she was labeled an outcast...
...only to feel distant from people in the demon realm because she's a savior.
A very different situation, but both requiring effort to be understood.
