Girl Genius Comic for Friday, January 26, 2024
🕑 Added 2024-01-26 03:45:30 +0000 UTCHello again! It's Friday, and after I finish the laundry, I have SO MUCH WORK TO DO. But it's good work, so that's fine.
It's been a minute since I did a Kickstarter, and it looks like we can now do add-ons right in Kickstarter without needing to go to BackerKit? I'm curious about this but don't know much yet. I'm getting a quote from PinSource for three sizes of trilobite button, so I might test the system with a small campaign just for those before doing anything large. They're the kind of buttons one sews on shirts and coats. I'm having them quote for these sizes: 19 mm (roughly ¾ inch) \\ 25.5 mm (1 inch) \\ 13mm (1/2 inch) I think these ought to let me do most of what I want with my own wardrobe, so I hope they work for other people. I'm excited about that!
Our moggie tonight is being attacked by what is meant to be a goblin. I think it might need a few more indicators because right now it looks to me like a rambunctious child is on the attack.
Ok, I'm off! Thanks everyone!

In an attempt to have mercy upon those who, for any reason, have trouble with the hammy dialect. Here you go!
---START TRANSLATION---
PANEL ONE
Narrator: And outside Mechanicsburg--
Random Jäger (purple): I need to see the general.
Jäger guard: Yeah? Well, he's over there, but don't let him hear you call him that.
PANEL TWO
Random Jäger (purple): Hey! General! Cover your ears!
PANEL THREE
Random Jäger (purple): Ooo! What is that?
Dimo: Oh! You're curious? Good for you! This is our position! Over here we have the Wulfenbach guys (troops) and over here is the last place we saw the Reindeer Boys! (The troops of the Polar Lords.)
PANEL FOUR
Random Jäger (purple): Okay, but what about this neat picture-y thing?
PANEL FIVE
Random Jäger (bright blue): ...then after the Reindeer Boys left, there was all this ice around! And I dibsed (claimed) it for the party tonight, but this morning it was all gone!
Dimo: Okay, but then why did you punch Zamin?
Random Jäger (bright blue):He was laughing at me! So I think he took it!
PANEL SIX
Random Jäger (olive):...and the Reindeer Boys, a lot of them didn't have any hats, but those Wulfenbach guys have lots of hats! So we were thinking, maybe we could--
Dimo: NO!
PANEL SEVEN
Random Jäger (peach): So since you said not to fight the Wulfenbach guys, and the Reindeer boys are gone, we thought we would have a big fight at tonight's party, to see who gets--
PANEL EIGHT
Maxim: I don't get it (I don't understand) the battle's been over since yesterday, but the medical guys still want more supplies--
Dimo: That's because now we're fighting Jägers!
---END TRANSLATION---
Ok, sorry about that, I hope this helped! Also, I noticed a mistake while I was doing this, so I'll fix that asap. Thanks everyone!

I'm thinking it's something like, "Ho! Gud verk, Dimo! Hyu really grew into hyu new hat! Vat, hyu thot ve vould gest let hyu go back to toodling around mit doz odder two guize? Sorry, but hyu eez too gut to schtop now. Hyu know our Heterdyne better dan any ov uz, and she trusts hyu too. No, sorry fella, but hyu is de new lyaihiezon to de Heterodyne. Along vit mixter Higgs, as soon as ve get dot green haired gurl of hiz off of him for five meenuts!"

Hmmmn. I wonder what the other generals will do once they come out of time freeze?

Possibly the bishop didn't have a choice - a nice big hat like that is practically a Jager magnet!

Also the Jaeger with the bishop's mitre is a hilarious touch, even if it makes me want the back story of the bishop who decided to fight a jaeger. (wasped?)
