And cue the angry mother.

BOLOmk33 • 04/21/2013

:-D

Lord_Chaos • 04/21/2013

With the glide angle of a brick.

Lord Keldor • 04/21/2013

Well I guess he may be having Griffin pancakes for breakfast.

dracone • 04/21/2013

the poor myrvin they got hurt, but Tor meant well so I'll let him off a little. For those of you confused a myrvin is what you call a baby griffin, as to why I really don't know

Tor as always trying to be helpful by finding something to eat for the to baby gryphs and screwing up big by letting them drop to the ground.

Mama Gryph is sure to be there in a few when the two scream in pain so Tor should find a distraction fast for the two (like them biting into his tail) until he could feed them with carps caught by his tail.

Karmakat • 04/21/2013

boy really not smart move there tor ...

MaveriKat • 04/21/2013

Ouch! Poor babies! Darn it, Tor!

Timmie • 04/21/2013

Cursing in front of the children, bad tiger!

Vanbael • 04/21/2013

Well, that was smooth... Lets see what crying babies attract, like their mother and trouble).

soriac • 04/21/2013

Ouch, I hope this comic is PG instead of NC17, thus we'll only see two slightly dazzled baby griffins down there with tiny stars surrounding them instead of a more grim outcome to this. He should have let them cling on the universal feline attraction and adhesion device (or "tiger tail" for short), they wouldn't fall off from this :-)

Youko • 04/21/2013

Aw, poor little guys. T_T Hope they're okay. XD

Fargo Wolf • 04/21/2013

facepalms Way to go, Tor...

On the other hand, gryphons ARE half cat, so in theory, they should land on their feet.

Muddypaws • 04/22/2013

Flying Home on a Wing and a Prayer...

Perpessio • 04/22/2013

Two cases of blunt forced trauma? Or maybe they got lucky and hit the branch beneath his? Otherwise, we're in for seeing Tor improvise.

Chris 'Foxx' Yost • 04/22/2013

Oooooohhh, they'll be ranting

TheMjohann • 04/22/2013

Well they -are- half lions. And cats land on their paws... Im sure they are at least 50% ok... <.<

Jan • 04/23/2013

Well, they went THUD, not SPLAT, so it's likely they'll be okay :D

Oh, the myriad of sound effects I could use that'll really twist up the story...

Zinc • 04/23/2013

At least it wasn't a squish sound, so we know that one didn't land on top the other

Miavir • 04/23/2013

Hee Dracone. Baby gryphons being called Myrvins ? Only if they're gay ;-)

BLackShadow • 04/23/2013

Hmmm...."Thud thud".....that does not sound like baby griffins hitting the GROUND....more like....baby griffins landing on a guy and his horse?

Turns out, while horses may not be ticklish, two baby griffons landing on the horse and rider makes for a perfect diversion to get some goodies. :D

Gekkokid • 04/23/2013

when the mother comes.....well his dead.

Rocket T. Coyote • 04/23/2013

CaptFox • 04/23/2013

They'll be fine! Who I'm worried about is Tor - when mommy comes back and finds her children gone.

Arc Nova • 04/25/2013

Well why don't you just jump right after them, Tor? Your head's made out of rubber and your tail's made out of springs, right?

David • 04/25/2013

I have a funny feeling that they may have just landed on someone.

soriac • 04/25/2013

Although it could be a weird plot twist if these two adorable little babys show themselves as wild brats and mommy would not be furiously after our thieves, but instead eternally thankfull to get rid of these two spoiled mouths who seemingly only like to eat tiger tails :-)

I mean, c'mon, mommy just dropped the package into the nest and then flew away instead of helping her babies in preparing the dish of today. Its like she almost WANTED it... what kind of mother is that, hehe

Jazzy • 04/25/2013

Why did you toss the cute baby gryphlettes? WHYYY

Jan • 04/25/2013

I think we need to come up with a term for 'baby gryphon'. Gryphlette? Myrvin? Gryphonling? Gryphies? :D

BLackShadow • 04/26/2013

@ Jan: Well, there ARE half cat and half bird, so wouldn't it be a cross between chick and kitten? O_o Chittens? ....that kinds sounds like something you'd order at a restaurant called "Griffon's Lunchables" or something. Maybe they have Tiger Tails on the menu.....

But yeah. Chittens. Chitten is singular, I guess. XD

dracone • 04/26/2013

@ Jan, I suggest you consult a Monster Manual or some other rpg monster guide or maybe an Encyclopedia of mythical creatures, given the whole swords and sorcery vibe of comic, and I mean 3e or 3.5 if you go near the 4e stuff I'm afraid for the quality of your work, also maybe looking at the Player's Handbooks could give some ideas to do with your characters. I'm guessing our thieves, also known as rogues in some games, are under level 3 given the quality of their abilities displayed.

dracone • 04/26/2013

@ Jan or if you don't want to go through the hassle put up a poll and see what the readers want them to be called, although I'm sure that would be the wisest or smartest course of action, maybe you should consult the books first just be on the safe side

dracone • 04/26/2013

I meant to say I'm not sure that would be the wisest or smartest

Rocket T. Coyote • 04/26/2013

Gryphlings

shakuvendell • 04/27/2013

Birds don't fly until adolescence, why should griffons be any different. Of course, for a tiger with his own issues getting around, such ignorance of the rules of self ambulation is to be expected, regardless of the fact that Tor's complications are a result of simple stupidity with a side of being too kind-hearted for his own good - this being applicable to both his aforementioned mobility issues, as well as the mildly-concussed myrvin below. Regardless, they do need food, so props to our lovable idiot with an alluring tail (In the eyes of potential seafood, at least...).

Zinc • 04/27/2013

My vote's in for Gryphlettes... or a new suggestion of Gryphles :3

Fargo Wolf • 04/27/2013

I just call them baby Gryphons, since that's what they are. =)

dracone • 04/27/2013

@ Fargo Wolf, what we're really arguing about is the term meaning "baby gryphon", we're still calling them baby gryphons we're just using a single term to define them.

Iamar the Wolf • 04/29/2013

:p Cats really are cruel cruel creatures, playing with thier prey through ignorance. Oh Tor, if only you had your own pair of wings...... .......wait did I really just suggest that? Bad idea! Tor, don't even think about it!

Draconis • 05/29/2013

"And as God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly"

Shadowkey392 • 07/04/2013

nope.

Matt • 06/30/2017

threw them out of the nest too soon, Tor
