you know it wasnt LOL...

Ceriu

Of course it was! She aimed for the liver, not the flank. ;)

Reseen Dalls

I don't think so, it would be nice to think she cared about Rask but I think Daddy might have pushed his kid out of the way of a proper backstab.

BC

He can still do it~ It's within dashing distance and Yarrow's attention is on Hemlock

Vintage Taxidermy

Mmmm, Rask may have screwed that possibility due to his own indecision getting Sprig killed.

BritishRabbit

Not talking really at all about how Rask got hit~ We'll know more about that later. I'm more thinking this'll be when Hemlock learns the importance of she can't do this alone, spear or no spear, she's gonna have to learn to trust.

Vintage Taxidermy

talking about the other spearhead~ The broken one behind them. Was drawn in for a reason

Vintage Taxidermy

Oh Hemlock, I really hope that was an accident...

Amber

I'm always astounded about how smoothly you mix human and animal postures. Panel 1 is really two martens fighting, but the 3 is so human like, and it works so well!

Reseen Dalls

That would be incredibly hard. Rask is barely tolerated at the Hollow and he hurt no one. So accepting Yarrow, even him just being around or just left alive, after he murdered two members of the warren... He may have already burned the bridges behind himself.

Reseen Dalls

She probably couldn't contain her desire to kill TWO predators. Also I think for all her bravado around Twig before she truly was chocked to see him dead and rushed to avenge him.

Reseen Dalls

Infection could 'eff him up.

BritishRabbit

Fairly sure the spear is meant to be aimed *at* him. You don't throw yourself onto your opponent's weapon, that is how you die.

BritishRabbit

Oof, can't say I'm surprised by this, the moment Sprig died things got dicey as hell for Rask.

BritishRabbit

With the placement of that spear tip, I have a feeling what's going to happen is Yarrow is going to get Hemlock down, and then Rask is going to come in from behind with the spear tip to save the day. Should give a bit Hemlock a bit of 'humble pie' and help her understand both that she can't judge Rask like she does other martens, and that she DOES need more help than she thinks she does. But, nothing wrong with needing help.

Vintage Taxidermy

Good eye! Yarrow is definitely meant to be looking at Hemlock.

Teagan Gavet

I love how the comment section is so split about what happened here. Did Hemlock try to stab Rask, or did she accidentally scratch him because Yarrow kicked him out of the way? I’m guessing the next page with clear it up if she’s actually hostile towards both of them. ;). Really love the motions and facial expressions in this one.

Juli Gebauer

Personally I think Hemlock was aiming for both of them (or, alternatively, just Rask initially and believing that once she dealt with one she’d be able to handle the other). She only missed because Yarrow kicked Rask out of the way of what would have been a fatal injury. If you notice in the second to last panel, when Yarrow kicks Rask he isn’t actually looking /at/ Rask; he’s looking at Hemlock. If it was a coincidental kick coinciding with the spear strike that accidentally saved Rask, I feel like it would make more sense for Yarrow’s focus to be directly on Rask. Just my two bits (and maybe I’m picking up a detail that wasn’t intended to be there) but I certainly hope Rask and Hemlock don’t have an immediate team up and kill Yarrow. Yarrow himself seems set in his ways of viewing prey animals only as a food source, but I’d like to see him get the chance to change and learn that the old way isn’t always the right way.

Sync

Rask is going to end up grabbing the spear behind him and stabbing Yarrow, I'm calling it now.

Helena_Hyena

It looks like he kicked Rask out of the way of a nasty stab wound, good reflexes.

Stephanie Dalton

Does she? Or was she trying to kill them BOTH?

Gato909

Yarrow muzzle on last panel is not painted.

sansanik

I agree, however I dont think she was waiting for him to move, considering he wouldn't know to move since he doesnt know shes there. I think she was aiming for Yarrows side at an odd angle and when he kicked Rask up he got sliced by it.

Spicy

However, if that was the case, you would think Rask would have a wound in a much more critical place instead of his side. Hard to tell the angle that the spear is at. We’ll have to wait and see though.

Bruno Schafer

The spear tip behind Rask..... Also let's hope it's not a serious would , it seems pretty superficial

Berto

My theory is that Hemlock was actually aiming the spear at Yarrow and was just waiting for Rask to move out of the way. Because Rask looks like he was only slashed because Yarrow kicked Rask up.

Maximus Coyotox

If you think so, then stab someone specifically in this situation is quite difficult, and the fact that she stab Rask is a confirmation of this. I don't think she wanted to hurt both of them, she just poked.

sansanik

I don’t know, looks like she was trying to stab through him to get them both like @darkwolf said

Cam

It looks like she was aiming for Yarrow, and that Rask got hit on the side when Yarrow kicked him, as she is pointing the spear at him afterward.

Bruno Schafer

Looks to me like she was trying to stab through them both

Darkwolf

Did she srly tried to stab Rask?? The heck dude

Cam

I wonder if she meant to stab Rask? I guess we will see..... ;--;

Paper Wings

o.o Well, she needs to work on her aim

JackTheFoxOtter

I thought she would attack at the last moment
