I considered it a reminder...

They aren't wild animals...or monsters...they are men...and they may not like us experimenting on them...

Sometimes, I juste love the littlest of details... Higgs has been reasigned from the Rosen Maiden to Castle Wulfenbach, as evidenced by his cap. Thus questions:
- Is he still a bosun?
- Is this new cap Jaegeresquer?
- How many particles will be crashed into each other to uncover his identity?

I thought Higgs was aboard the Frozen Maiden? Nope, it looks to be Rozen Maiden. That makes no sense. oh well, it IS GG.

After seeing Monday's installment, I think the "they were once men..." comment was a lead-in/set up for the biy about it being the worst thing they experienced, and how Vole would feel about that now.

Now that you say it, this may be possible as a F could be hidden by perspective. But what is important is the change of affectation: he's now directly attached to Gil.

And a lead-in to what Vole is feeling today, when brought back to a non-frozen timeline.
Could it also be a clue on Higgs, as if he (alone?) remembers what being human is, not being blinded by Jaegerdraught-induced pain. Hypotheses, hypotheses... we're doing SCIENCE!

Ghostbear_Gurdel · « **Reply #95 on:** 30 July 2014, 11:24:17 »

..so could it be that Higgs is the only person to take the perfected Jeager Drought? He has all the benefits but none of the side effects?

I found a picture that clearly shows that there is no "F". And I guess Phil is a fan of an anime called "Rozen Maiden".

I decided to find out what's the all hype about Girl Genius... Now I know ;D O0

[edit]
Yeah, this just BEAUTIFUL

Aokarasu · « **Reply #98 on:** 01 August 2014, 19:16:29 »

Not that Vole has generally been in what most would consider to be a pleasant mood - but he looks decidedly miffed about now.

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #99 on:** 01 August 2014, 19:22:16 »

Just a tad.

So the Jägermonsters get bigger and less human like as they age? Would that mean that the generals are the earliest (surviving) of their kin?

Aokarasu · « **Reply #102 on:** 04 August 2014, 03:34:49 »

That which makes Dupree think an enraged Jaegermonster is a gift to her...makes me a tad worried.

All I'm getting is an impression that her vision of the immediate future is suitable for the Valentine's Day of her world AND ours...

Stormlion1 · « **Reply #104 on:** 04 August 2014, 13:00:29 »

Dupree looks very, very excited in that last panel. Almost too excited. I don't expect Vole to survive!

Orin J. · « **Reply #105 on:** 04 August 2014, 17:29:57 »

she's awash with emotions i usually need to dream of atomic weapons to have!

Gil meanwhile is trying to get his headgears spinning fast enough to figure out what this means to his previously devised plans. he seems to be somewhat of an expert of misunderstanding Dupree.

Stormlion1 · « **Reply #106 on:** 04 August 2014, 18:16:28 »

I don't think anyone can understand Dupree. That's the problem!

worktroll · « **Reply #107 on:** 04 August 2014, 18:24:29 »

I think her run-of-the-mill boyfriends break too quickly. Vole promises greater ... endurance.

And spiky bits ...

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #108 on:** 04 August 2014, 18:41:00 »

And dates that are more fun.

So, think of her as a Klingon female (at least in this case) - got it.

worktroll · « **Reply #110 on:** 04 August 2014, 19:04:45 »

More like a Predator female (from the novels, anyway ...)

Best part, Vole can't die!

Von Jankmon · « **Reply #112 on:** 05 August 2014, 15:23:50 »

He might not die, yet, but he will want his centuries back.

That is an awful amount of time to be stolen just to sate Gil's curiosity. Mad scientist or no, I always felt Gil had more morals than that. I really hope he has a plan to restore Vole to his youthful state.

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #113 on:** 05 August 2014, 16:15:32 »

Remember, there have been hints that Gil isn't in the driver's seat anymore.

At least not all the time. Also, a good while back there was a question of whether a slaver wasp could maintain control of a spark while they were in the "madness place".

My convoluted theory: The Other encouraged Klaus to use a beacon engine to download himself into Gil. Bringing the other's influence over Klaus with him. The four armed advisor (who's name I forget), having already suspected Klaus's infection, countered this move by somehow inducing the madness place in Gil and keeping him there, while surrounding him with trusty guardians who were beyond infection (Dupree, already treated to prevent it, Higgs, because he's fricken Higgs, and the Clank). This allowed Gil to remain free long enough to duplicate and distribute the slaver wasp antidote, and possibly even free the father in his head in the process. Leading to the current state of war between the Wulfenbachs and the Other.

So Gil must be kept crazy for the greater good of the Empire.

worktroll · « **Reply #116 on:** 05 August 2014, 18:42:01 »

I agree with most of your hypothesis, but I do think Klaus is still in there. Yes, the son is likely to copy the behavioural patterns of his father, but I'm getting a very strong Baronial vibe off Gil, with his feelings for Agatha being the purest Gil influence.

Poorly worded on my part. I assume that Head Klaus is still present, but is free of the Other's control.
