115. Insight

Transcript

[[Juni is eating in its mother Hira's house.]]
Juni: ...and so that's how Sam and I ended up here.
Hira: I see. And you didn't realize you had come home until Tsan's child said my name?
Juni: You mean Eugene? Yes.
Hira: Out of curiosity, did he say what he was doing in the cave?
Juni: He was out hunting, and I guess he heard the drone bots rescuing me.
Hira: Why would he be hunting that far away? I think he was looking for answers.
Juni: Answers? Answers to what?
Hira: What really happened to his mother, Tsan Rumio.
Hira: I think you may have some insight.
Hira: I am going to make some tea. Would you like some?

I had to remind myself that this isn't one of Juni's dreams, and that Hira Melrose isn't going to morph into a platypus, a blue-haired Homin, or a hatpin.

There is a very simple and logical reason why they look nearly-identical. I left some hints already and there is also another one in the coming Monday's popup text (as in 11/3/08). I have no idea when it will be spelled out in the comic. I don't script far enough in advance.

Hee, all right then, I've placed my bets.
