Hello again, Verengt.

A tapetum lucidum is a kind of mirror.

They all look so stunningly otherworldly. Centaurs are amazing.

AmePeryton

the first words out of their trunk better be “sorry”

chemibaptism

literally gasped at my phone screen hello verengt. was just hoping they’d make a reappearance!

cellar_whales

Verengt! Glad we get to see them again.

Bronwyn Moore

tapetum lucidum in creature design my beloved omgg ooh did the other centaurs overhear everything that went down? it's gotta be wild to live most of your life being the only person with superhearing and then suddenly there's a whole herd of other folks who can also hear everything that's happening.... SO curious to find out what their thoughts are on this situation!

entipikal

Talita being half illuminated and the other centaurs being entirely in shadow... 💖 There's heartwrenching symbolism here I just know it but it's the middle of the night and the best I can do rn is go "cool composition! :D"

Sparky Lurkdragon

Oh man, that closeup panel both with and without the direct eyeshine... the Symbolism... I wonder if the Gwailers know she's leaving and why yet.

Solanuma

Woah i didn't expect Talita would get a chance for another conversation with them! Really tense and exciting it could be about so many things

Gray

What an amazing visual! I would be afraid to see centaurs at night if I were unfamiliar.

ByTheBrooks

One eye in the light, the other in the dark. A girl stuck between two worlds.

The Protogoon

The shape of their heads and the glowing eyes in the night in the first panel reminds me a lot of the way the Flatwoods Monster is sometimes depicted. Otherworldly. Phenomenal art as ever.

Harley Wilson

Oh my gosh the symbolism between the two of them both only having one eye shine!!

wildazebra

holyy moly the lighting on this is DOING SOMETHING TO ME!!!

cryptidcore

idk if its intentional but i loooooooooove the lighting on talita vs the rest of the centaurs... one eye glowing while the other is "normal" (to talita, not according to typical centaur body language) while the rest of them are fully in the dark eyes glowing... ough its so good

wildazebra

the combo of the second and third panels especially with the centaurs obscured and staring at talita makes them feel very alien and separate from talita standing in the light but that bit of reflected light matching theirs in her left eye giving the two groups a semblance of connection… dunnno if im articulating that well but still. WOW

Scout

VERENGT!!!!!!! i was so hoping that we’d get one last scene with them before talita left!! the tension in talita’s mouth… aaaaugh

mfortooate

you're just so good at this

Floroboros

Stunning page. Hope their convo goes well. I believe the two entourage members are missing their piercings in panel 2?

Sparky Lurkdragon

Unless it's two workers! Edit: *squints* ... Wait, no, you're right. I think one of them is Verengt's sireparent, though, since they have four piercings.

Victoria Walker

Reminds me of the story my dad told ages ago where he saw something eye level with him outside in the dark. Except he knew where the thing was standing it was actually down a steep hill so it was something TALL. Scared the crud out of him until he ran to get some lights on and it was a neighbor's horse that got out. Same energy of "not actively Wanting to hurt you but definitely Could and also it's dark." 10/10 I'm forever grateful this isn't a horror setting lol

Tzevoah Seraphina

Oh that's so haunting and beautiful. I'm really glad we get to see Verengt and the others again before she goes...

Alight

Ooooh, I really hope this goes well.

Devoted Archon

Peak execution of light and shadow here

Kessal

the forbidden centaur Yuri isn't cannon... right?

The Faerie Fox

Ooo...goodbye and/or apolpgy time? I mean I imagine they already know she's quit/leaving, I imagine word travels fast in a "small" place like Dirtball. Tbh I wonder how Verengt is feeling now that the oddball who "threatened" them is leaving. Relieved they won't have to deal with her unpredictable behavior? Scared or worried there's no one to look after their workers/kids on the job anymore?

Valentina José

Panel 3 hit me like a fucking freight train god damn!!!!

Valentina José

The energy of a lonely werewolf starting at a pack of wolves

rey

OHOHOOOAHIOAOAOA THIS LOOKS SICK AS HELL

rey

It is in our hearts

zaratustra

I was hoping Verengt could give Talita some lessons on basic centaur etiquette, but things started happening fast.

TeachMeToLearn

You know I never considered centaurs would have eye shine but that does make sense. Definitely reminds you they are predators

Calcifer

YESS I was hoping we'd get to see them one more time. Despite this being the best move for Talita, I always felt kinda bad for Verengt and their clan. Like, as soon as you show up the only other centaur peaces out, lmao. I hope they leave each other on a better note.

Azikenn

Here's how the April fools yuri can still win

SaritaWolff

Oh I’m so glad they’re here. I was really hoping Talita would get a chance to talk to them again before she leaves.

Rebel Spy

obsessed with this page. so cool. when you can only see their eyes and vaguely their outline they look like one strange, large creature in the shadows

Rebel Spy

Curious how Talita's behavior changes now that she no longer needs to impress/supervise them. Id warn them if they wanted to hear it

CoffeeCat

I believe the centaur with four nasal piercings talking to Verengt is their sire parent, whom Verengt goes to for advice as mentioned, I wonder if Verengt asked for input on what to do here.

Potatoe

"a Tapetum lucidum is a kind of mirror" as if the symbolism on this page isn't heavy-handed enough you gotta put that in the description too? Ough my heart

Joey Shears

I wonder who's going to be in charge of them now that Talita's quit. Todd and Killian are the only other characters we know to be mechanics, though they are internal ones. Or is the whole thing just gonna be shutdiwn till a replacement can be hired? Damn imagine getting hired someplace and all this chaos happening immediately, I think I'd take my kids and nope out if I were them.

Dylan Powell

omg I hope this second conversation goes better

everestseal

since the centaur temps have experience working with salvage in exosuits, they fortunately might just need a rundown of the safety protocols + someone who knows the facility's layout to shadow them for a few days, then they'd probably be fine on their own. an incredibly unlikely (but hilarious) scenario that i've been rotating in my brain has been one where Adam misses the ferry due to his injury, and once he's somewhat recovered Mel just kinda throws him at the centaurs since he's the only one left on dirtball with ANY experience working outside and 'dammit if we fall behind any farther on our scrap quota i am SO fired' ಥ_ಥ

hawkmoth

How good is centaurs' night vision compared to ours anyway? I assume the tapetum lucidum helps, and would the larger size of their eyes help too? That aside, LOVE the imagery in this page as everyone else is saying. As well as the obvious with Talita only having one of her eyes fully doing that, it fascinates me that there may be a visual parallel with Verengt here- both only have one eye reflecting light, but they differ in why. Perhaps Verengt will have thought more about Talita's situation, maybe even sympathise as someone with a visible difference from other centaurs that might unsettle strangers, and things will go better this time? It'll depend on what they know and how they feel about the work incident, though. Really excited for the next pages :D

BatteryMaster

I know that it isn't the intent, but why do I get the sinking feeling that Talita is about to get whacked?

Kessal

unrelated but is there an unblocked version of Talita's autism rant on page 96 about repairing spacecraft?

rykie

Ooough, stomach-clenching social anxiety by proxy.

EdenArtFactory

oh!! the bebes pupated!! you can see berengts back!!!

EdenArtFactory

I belive it's actually one and two piercings, i think they're bars that go through the trunk and anchored with balls on both side, like human septum piercings!

EdenArtFactory

I'd think so since sireparent was the one to whisper to verengt about talita

EdenArtFactory

my comment sounded bitchy but it wasn't! my bad!

Bilal BK

This page is absolutely stunning. The symbolism with Talita only having one eye shining is like, super clever. Again, I wish one day I'll be able to produce this kind of comic page like you do Jay. This is an absolute gem.

Nethervane

Oooh I'm so nervous but hopeful for how this goes...! I hope they at least end up parting on a positive note ;_;

RareBirdAlert

The illumination on Talita in the third panel is exquisite.

Rapaz

this an absolutely stunning page. I have been staring at it in wonder for an entire day. the shadows emphasize the differences between talita and the gwailer, but they still remain connected by the light of their eyes... just incredible. combined with the gwailer coming out of the dark towards talita (towards the "human world") and being dressed notably more relaxed than last time makes me think this conversation is going to go well, even if they won't be friends with talita

Lee

I love the symbolism of them being in the dark and Talita being in the light with the Gwailer clan coming to meet her. Them stepping into the light to meet her where she is gives me hope that this conversation goes well. Lord knows she deserves it and needs it 🫂

BakedBananners

I’ve hired these four centaurs to stare at you

General Chaos's Page of Arts

If nothing else, I think that the centaurs can actually observe safety protocol. Unlike, oh, Adam. Then again, people who go over Niagara Falls in barrels have more survival instinct than Adam.

halley

ohhhh shittings. i hope they can reconcile

Stormy ⚡️

There are still a few pages left.

Stormy ⚡️

I bet Talita can hear whatever they're all saying.

Selkie

gosh I love this comic. this page is so atmospheric. I wonder what this conversation will be about. I hope talita gets closure with all this...

mustarjil

i'm going to go against the grain here and say that i don't see a reason for why verengt ought to apologize. yes, the scene was unfortunate and very difficult to stomach, but they were quite courteous in the way they asserted their boundaries. we have a very intimate look into talita's life, while they don't. from their perspective, the manager ( talita) was basically doing the equivalent of holding a brass-knucklef fist to verengt's face. neither is at fault here--not talita, not verengt. actually, mel is at fault lol.

Floroboros

I was wondering if it was intentional/possible workers as well, but they have them again in panel 4. Unless there's more than 4 centaurs here?

Shadow

If you check the transcript for that page on the website it has basically the full text!

Input-Command

I love love love this. I can't get enough of reflective eyes like this. A type of creepy that always has me starstruck.
