Uh oh. Do cats land on their feet? Does she summon buttered toast? Will she turn into a butterfly? Or simply go splat? Freefalls in cartoons take kinda long, don't they?

Anubis • 05/06/2022

ReSummon Griffon spell?

OmegaWolf • 05/08/2022

Oh no not Kiela!

Tavis • 05/08/2022

Kinda long? Freefall's already taking like, what, 24 years? and still no sign of slowing down!

It's due to the lack of gravity in these delightfully fun stories. :P

MishaFox • 05/08/2022

I bet it's at least 2 more strips till we find out what happens ;)

Adam • 05/08/2022

Magical haystack? o.o "stays tuned"

soriac • 05/08/2022

Magically enhanced trampoline that randomly was placed there by some chaotic alchemist who wanted to test enhanced methods to pick fruits from high growing trees with said trampoline and his linear kinetic acceleration potion. It will send Kiela straight back towards the dragon as if she never left... cue one confused dragon and one enraged alchemist who complains about tampering with his test sequence... because it is about time that Wolf makes a cameo in S&S :-)

Skulker • 05/08/2022

But where's the crown?

Rose • 05/08/2022

Let this be a warning. always prepare "Feather Fall"

Zorro • 05/08/2022

Should have grabbed bunny then cast spell. He is light.

CW Glenn • 05/08/2022

Will a coyote come along and cushion her impact.

Vulpis • 05/08/2022

@Travis Hee...If you hadn't already said it, I was going to.

Treascair • 05/08/2022

IF Kiela bites it, she's going to be remembered as an absolute hero.

... I do hope she survives, though, she's awesome.

MiyuHogosha (aka Swift) • 05/08/2022

@soriac It's not Russian Space Program!

ndrvr • 05/09/2022

...where's Tor...? Didn't crashed with Dragmar, didn't catch Mom Gryphs tail...

Carp flipperslaps / headbutts Tor back up, Tor intercepts Kiela in midair ( "Oooof...!" ) and cushions her fall. That's short of olympic gold, right?

Guesticules • 05/09/2022

Tor is still holding on to Momma Griff's leg, with the crown

Calbeck • 05/09/2022

Heroism is only found in selflessness.

OK. Plus 10 points to Kiela for remembering the spell and using it to try to save King bun-bun. But I’m going to have to deduct a point for not grabbing King bun-bun and then casting the spell on herself. Easy enough mistake to make in the stress of the moment...

Oh, and nice ‘dark and foreboding gloom’ around the panel 6 area. Could that be a dragon’s shadow... or maybe an anvil? quickly hides under hay cart

@MishaFox What only 2? ;p

@Adam Well there is that one cart loaded with hay... Stay tooned.

@Soriac Well that trampoline salesman from ‘The Emperor's New Groove’ really gets around.

@Zorro insert complicated mathematical formula about the speed of falling hares... or was that unladen swallows But yes agreed.

@CW_Glenn Well I am hiding under a hay cart... O_O

save everyone, still ruin a day... 'My Cabbages!' (then again, didn't he say he was switching to brussel sprouts?)

Panther • 05/11/2022

I bet about mama dragon who hazn't finished wiz Kiela and will grab her again ^_^

Kirsten Wolfess • 05/11/2022

I have a feeling our Bunny-King is going to pull off some impressive aerobatics to grab Kiela and get as low down to the ground before the spell wears off. Where they land, could be..... "Interesting"

Darkewulf • 05/12/2022

Admirable though it may be that her first instinct was to save the king, what I want to know is why she didn't grab the king first, and then cast Feather Fall on herself while still holding him.

LionkingCMSL • 05/14/2022 • edited

For those that are wondering why she didn't grab the king/bunny; three reasons come to mind:

She was falling quicker than the bunny. Her terminal velocity is greater than his and she didn't see him in time.
She couldn't cast the spell on herself, it had to be directed at another.
Combination of the two aforementioned reasons.

A fourth reason, which just came to mind, is that she needs both hands to cast the spell, as was shown in panel number 3, and she couldn't do that and hold on to the king/bunny at the same time.

Silverwolf • 05/16/2022 • edited

The shadow is from a giant flock of pigeons, which are accelerating Tor downward faster than his terminal velocity so he hits the ground under Kiela.

The pigeons are less interested in saving Kiela, and more interested in killing Tor. That seems to be their track record with our two rogues...

Or, you know, Kiela dies on impact, but she gets better, gets up, dusts herself off, takes a card out of her pocket, and punches the third hole out of the set of 9. (Don't ask about the first two.)

Kiela: "Next time has to have a better ending than THAT."

Here comes the split. The soul goes up while the body goes down. If she would be eaten now the soul magnet would be reversed. Up into a Dragon for the body and H... for the Soul.

Matt • 05/18/2022

The Dragon Forgives and rescues her.

Alex • 01/08/2023

Is that a Huntik Reference? I think the spell was Feather Drop there
