A Little Goblin's Adventure

 2004.03.05Vol.6

Whoa! Has it been a month already? I don't know how I'm supposed to keep up with this tough schedule. If only my editor would give me a break...

Anyway, if you missed my last entry, here I am--a handsome, daring young Goblin being dragged around a hot and sweaty jungle by a half-pint sprout...
Thickshell: "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"
...ah, yes, and a neurotic crab.
Mandragora: "Pakyah! We be getting there when getting there! Is there being no way of shutting this crab up?"
I've been trying to find a way for the past five episodes...
Thickshell: "Hey, I was just asking a question, Mandraggy! If you don't watch yourself, I'll show you my big scissors!"

How about I just show both a pot of boiling water and enlighten them on the exquisite flavor of turnip and crab stew...

Thickshell: "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"
Mandraggy: "...I seeming to have misplaced my compass..."
Thickshell: "What did I tell you! Now if I was leader..."
...we'd all be roasting over a Sahagin fire.
Mandraggy: "We going to my family's house. They will be knowing the ways."



Mandraggy: "Dad! I was missing you!"
Mandaddy: "Mandraggy?"
Awww...family.
Mandaddy: "I thought I told you to be packing your stuff and getting out!"
Awww...broken family.
Mandraggy: "Why are we burning bridges when we should be building them? Look, I bringing some friends!"
Mandaddy: "You finally making some friends? Well, why aren't you saying so?"
Mandraggy: "Dad, we trying to be getting to Temples of Uggalepih. Are you knowing the ways?"
Mandaddy: "What am I looking like, map vendor?"
Actually, he kind of does...
Mandaddy: "Be asking your mother."


Manmommy: "What am I looking like, jungle tour guide?
Actually, she kind of...
Manmommy: "Be asking the bambinos."


Mangreggy: "Pa!"
Manpetey: "Pa!"
Manbobby: "Pa!"
Whoa. A little too much fertilizer in the stew there, Manmommy.
Mandaddy: "Are any of you knowing the ways to Temple of Uggalepih?"


Mandrakids: "What are we looking like, signpost washers?"
Actually...aw, never mind.
Mandraggy: "That's rich! Jungle family not knowing ways around jungle."
Look who's talking, sprout.
