Song of the Lioness fan comic number 12. Panel 1: Alanna the Lioness stands in practice gear holding a sword and looks confused. She says, “What’s going on? I thought we were sparring.” Panel 2: Coram Smythesson is sitting on a stool and patting the stool next to him. He says, “Sit down, lass.” Panel 3: Looking down from above on a group of people sitting in a circle as Alanna joins them. Someone says, “Alanna, we all care about you.” Alanna replies, “Ok?” Someone else adds, “And that’s why we need to tell you something that may be difficult to hear.” Panel 4: Alanna is sitting next to Thayet. Thayet takes Alanna’s hands in hers and softly says, “Your cat, Faithful…” Panel 5: Thayet looks at Alanna and finished, “is an asshole.” Alanna looks shocked.
Panel 6: Alanna looks around at everyone and nervously laughs, “Whaaaaat? Faithful? No he’s not.” Panel 7: Thayet whips around at everyone and asks, “Who here has been victimized by Faithful the Cat?” Panel 8: Pull the “camera” back to see that everyone in the group is raising their hands, including George Cooper and Coram. Panel 9: Alanna looks down and away from everyone while saying, “I mean, I know he can be a little judgmental sometimes.” Panel 10: Raoul of Goldenlake looks annoyed and says, “Last week Faithful said he envies my freedom as ‘a tertiary character.’” Raoul is using air quotes.
Panel 11: The royal chef has her arms crossed and a ladle in hand. She says, “He said my cooking was more likely to kill the royal family than anything Roger had tried!!” Panel 12: King Jon leans forward and says, “Well he called me a lazy slut!” Next to him, Raoul mutters, “He’s not wrong about that though.” Panel 13: Huge dark clouds with lightning roll in overhead with a giant “KRAK-OOM!” Panel 14: Alanna, tiny and scared, says, “Mithros?!” Panel 15: Mithros’s giant face peers down from the thunderclouds. He says, “That cat is verbally abusive.”
Panel 16: We see Faithful from behind watching the group of people gathered around Alanna. Someone shouts, “Look, there he is!!” Panel 17: Alanna, smiling nervously, says, “Hey buddy…” Panel 18: Faithful just stares at her. Panel 19: She continues, “Maybe you could be a little nicer?” Panel 20: Faithful begins licking his paw, and replies, “Maybe if you brushed your hair once in a while Jon wouldn’t have left you.”
