Ep 96. Recollection

3/6/26

Razor is carrying Fuzzball, Gum, and an unconscious Sharps through the city streets, text reading, Caw, surrounding them. There is a top-down shot of her running down an alleyway, leaving pawprints behind her in the snow. The blurry wings of crows can be seen soaring overhead. The page goes dark.

From Sharps' perspective, we see as she slowly wakes up, opening her eyes to see Gum and Fuzzball talking in front of her. Their breaths are coming out as cold mist, and Fuzzball is wrapped in a blanket. The room they're in has boarded up windows, and a map of the rings that Gum is drawing in chalk on the wall. Gum's dialogue starts out fuzzy, before growing clearer as Sharps comes to. Gum says, And that railroad track will take us to the border of Wet Wilds. It's dangerous, but it's the only choice we have. We just need a car with four wheel drive to get there. As Gum talks, Fuzzball notices Sharps waking up.

There is a shot of Sharps' face as she opens her eyes, looking exhausted. She asks, Gum? What's going on? Gum turns to look at her, walking towards her as she says, Sharps, you froze up and fainted. How do you feel? There's a wide shot of the room where Razor's bandaged and bloody legs can be seen coming out of a makeshift tent, followed by a close-up of Gum's face as she continues, I need to tell you, how bad things have gotten. Gum's hand can be seen reaching out towards the camera, and towards Sharps.

As Gum holds Sharps' face, Sharps says, I thought I was hallucinating Lawless Kings. Gum says, You weren't. It's real. Gum hugs Sharps, and Sharps asks, Has she, is it that, that thing from fantasy novels? War? Or zombies? It couldn't be worse than that. Right? As Sharps keeps talking, a dark vignette appears over the panel, and Gum slumps into their hug with text beside her reading, Slump. Sound effect text follows the edge of the vignette, reading, Ring.

Gum says, You told me you can handle bad news. Sharps answers, I think so. Gum says, It's not just an illness. Sharps says, I figured. The next panel shows a shot of a crow fighting with an assimilated crow, eating its life force. Gum explains, If Morrigan is at war with anyone, it's herself. From what I could tell, she's being slowly taken-over.

A tear rolls down Sharps' cheek as she asks, By what? Gum's face darkens as she answers, Parasites. The next panel shows a shot of Threespines looming over the assimilated city, with Gum continuing, They turn objects into monstrosities and control them like vessels. Using them to build towers of flesh.

Then, Gum says, You're crying. Sharps answers, Gum, you wouldn't joke about something like that. Gum says, I'm sorry. I'm not. Sharps stammers, That's why, I'm, crying. Gum leans back and out of the hug, still holding Sharps' face as she promises, We'll leave soon. And I'll protect you, like Ankhen royalty.

The next panel shows Fuzzball drinking from a juicebox, looking off towards Gum and Sharps as they continue talking. Sharps asks, Is it just the rings? Gum answers, I don't know. Hopefully. Fuzzball looks into Razor's tent, expression suddenly turning concerned. As Fuzzball walks over to Sharps and Gum, she says, Um, I'm literally so sorry to interrupt you but I think Razor just died. In a panic, Gum pulls the makeshift tent down, effect text beside her reading, Fwup.

Razor is lying on the ground still wrapped in bandages, puddles of blood seeping out onto the sheet below her. Text beside her reads, Grr. Razor growls, What? Gum kneels down beside her, lifting one of her massive paws up as she says, Oh, shit, your wounds. Razor pulls a freaked out face. Text above Razor's paw reads, Lift. Fuzzball blushes in embarrassment, covering her mouth as she says, My bad! She didn't even die! Sharps, crossing her arms, says, She looks like she will.

Sharps says, You never told me why it's this cold. Gum answers, It might be the giant spine blocking out the sun. Razor asks Fuzzball, You thought I was dead? Fuzzball says, Surry. Sharps continues, This chick needs a blood transfusion. Are there no hospitals left? Gum, looking over at Razor, says, We'll just make her drink saline. Fuzzball shouts, Razor! What's your blood type? Razor answers, Red. Sharps insists, At least replace the bandages! Fuzzball shouts, Mine's red too-uh! Razor shouts, I want pickles! Gum looks very exhausted.

The shot changes to Gum and Sharps sleeping on the floor, with Gum sleeping on her back and Sharps sleeping on her side. They have a blanket, but Gum only has a corner, with the majority of it being on Sharps. Gum tightens her face and clenches her fist, breathing out a cold puff of air. A mist covers the bottom edge of the page.

The page fades from white to black, wisps of smoke rising from the bottom of the page. Very blurry text reads, Ha ha ha.

A blue flame appears in the center of the page, surrounded by other blurrier blue flames. Text at the bottom continues to read, Ha ha hah hah.

The laughing text continues to fill the page as suddenly the face of a fox appears, highlighted in blue with blue flames coming from its eyes and jaws.
