Description What is true about Roberto and what isn't will be made clearer in the coming pages. If you look on the previous page, Jerome whispers into the mockingbird's ear, but we DO NOT see him taking it to Roberto as he is talking to Friend Owl. I meant to have Jerome whisper a false truth into its ear, and make it SOUND like the mockingbird heard Roberto instead of Jerome. So Jerome was playing Roberto's part, in an attempt to make Lark feel better and get a comeuppance on Friend Owl,... and the affair and the plan may NOT have been true. Sneaky, eh?

Now that was sweet of Jerome to do that.

Haha, nothing like spontaneous truth, Jerome... Yeah, it was quite clear that what the mockingbird was saying was something Jerome had invented, but ... well, I guess we'll find out later what Roberto is really up to.
And I'd completely forgotten about Roberto being gay, though it would have worked regardless, because what the mockingbird said was all made up anyway so I assumed none of it was necessarily true.

The somewhat surprising truth here is that Jerome actually does care about Lark's feelings.

Nice storytelling. I love those last three frames.

Yay! You nailed all the things I wanted to get through on the dot!

Thanks for the comments too.

You rock. I know that's probably not very useful feedback, but you really, really do.

Wait-wait-wait...I thought Friend Owl was a guy. Oh my head...

He is.

In the first page Roberto was introduced, he told Lark he used to be gay. So Jerome uses that to give bad reputation to Friend Owl, not to Roberto, since THAT's the part that is not true. he is not really having an affair.

Make sense? Explain it to me.

Oh wait, I misunderstood that part! I thought he was just smart or something...jeez you're subtle!

I know. It's subtle, and that's why people are asking these questions that they do not understand what's happening on this page, so it was really hard page to present clear enough. Also, you really have to know each of the characters, including the mockingbird, to better understand what's at stake here.

I see that now. That's pretty darn clever, Andrew. If I'd done it, it would've been a blatanly obvious cliche of some sort. Nice 'un!

Even if Jerome is making it up, that last wink still makes me squee with joy. Brilliant facial expressions, especially with Roberto's bugged-out eyes

Roberto in the seventh panel is probably my favorite Roberto expression yet!

Yeah but if Jerome is making that up, doesn't that make him a dishonest cad? Aren't we supposed to be rooting for him and Lark?

It'll make sense in the coming pages.
