All the riches of Val Salia could not convince me to donate my body to Ran upon my death. Did you see what he uses fruit for?!

Autumn Minnchilla

If you are dead, do you really care? Yes a bit annoying if an ghost and see it, but even then its more annoying I think.

I feel like it would be hard to overemphasize just how often these guys get killed randomly. The girls are probably cranking out three or four hundred Yings a year and that's probably what it takes just to maintain their base population. I get the impression Yinglets are kind of like raccoons in that they have maximum lifespan of a couple of decades but, aside from a few exceptions, have lived of 1.5 to 3 years.

John C Butler

I can just imagine. Tonguegrass, waving softly regardless of the breeze

Flora P-Stylianides

He doesn't need to for Ran to tell Kass a story. Ran likes seeing the funny faces Kass makes.

ArcadeDragon

Am I supposed to have one???

Jazzyman

"Why would you ask that?!" "Oh, sorry! Its just 5 out 4 Yinglets have been onown to practice cannibalism." "W-what?!" *looks at Lopin* "huh... is *that* why I keep him around?"

BiasMushroom721

Specifically, *really bad* taxidermy

Val Salia

You don't??

Val Salia

Pickled Tongue in Solution Disorder

Val Salia

He sometimes acts normal-ish for a bit, allowing one to briefly forget, until reminded

Val Salia

"You hungry, by the way?"

Val Salia

Better than being in a room with an angry scientist

Val Salia

Yeah, grave robbing can be a bad look for the House

Val Salia

tbh I doubt Viracroix kills people just for failing him. He's far too pragmatic for that. Killing people just because they failed makes your underlings too scared to try things they might fail at.

Vicroc4

He grows them in a little garden on the balcony

Val Salia

Oh that's okay, yinglets aren't "folk"

Val Salia

You gotta be careful about phrasing around this guy

Val Salia

"If you run an electric current through it, it moves!"

Val Salia

Well SOMEbody's gotta get it

Val Salia

Except in this case the frog is sort of a person with feelings and opinions about local sports and stuff

Val Salia

It's perfectly good, would be a shame not to preserve it

Val Salia

I am a subscriber to the theory that guns and bullets have never killed anyone. It's all blood loss or cerebral trauma or something!

Val Salia

(He'd die)

Val Salia

They were indeed made out of bits

Val Salia

You lose your sense of squeamishness after the first dozen or so scientific autopsies

Val Salia

It's really as easy as finding a dead stray dog or something

Val Salia

Gotta study 'em all!

Val Salia

I've already seen a few!

Val Salia

Science, yo

Val Salia

Mostly for office pranks

Val Salia

The creeping fear slowly entering Kass’ mind of becoming taxidermy in Ran’s office if he ever dies

Autumn Minnchilla

Ran...? Why do you have a tongue in a jar?

Jazzyman

Been thinking about this and I think this PTSD rearing it's ugly head.

John C Butler

A good pickle is always amazing. I like mine with a shot of ice cold vodka. Preferably chilled outside in sub zero temps.

Fox Starwing

Frankly it's Kassen's own fault for thinking more of him. It's not like Ran hides who he is.

ComicTF

Same here. I do good with the hands on….just don’t ask me to draw a straight line….even using a ruler it usually ended up bent.😁

Vet

McAlister's Deli near me has begun offering a free pickle with every sandwich and that made me happy : )

Val Salia

Kass: "please be a tongue please be a tongue" "Woops! That wasnt a tongue sorry! Let me go get it!" *leaves room and forgets pickled pickle on table* "Gawd dammit"

BiasMushroom721

When it's starting to dawn on you that you're in a room with a mad scientist...

Matthias Preissl

Now I want to see Catboy Ran...

Matthias Preissl

I bet the cabinet contains pickled bodyparts of all species he has come across. Acquired after making appropriate arrangements with said species of course

Raan

Dissection really *was* my favourite, especially as I was the only kid whose stomach was inured to yuck. *Drawing* the little bugger's innards afterwards was the bit I hated - I was just so bad at it! (I "blame" my parents for spoiling my drawing ability: They bought LEGO for me just as I was starting to show artistic talent. It was too compelling - you can't draw something, then play with it, rebuild it and finally dismantle it and carefully put all the bits away.)

Richard Weir

RAN WHERED U GET THAT?!

Flora P-Stylianides

Ah, da classic blunder of forgetting organs in jars make folk nervous

Strawberry Daquiri

Ran! When someone offers to give you tongue this is not the correct way to continue!

Xodiac

I never took Ran for a resurrectionist, but honestly, I really, REALLY should have

Merle Blue

What's wrong, Kass? Cat got your tongue?

Matthew Vandiver

Kass is flashback to high school science class…..Frog dissection day….just before lunch. That was always Ran’s favorite day!

Vet

I mean he's not wrong, that is the best way to learn that. He just failed to consider his audience, or chose not to do so. Kinda reminds me of someone I know honestly, this is absolutely something they would do.

ContaTM

"Ran, stop being autistic for, like, one minute."

Russet

Eh, I'm pretty sure Ran had bits and pieces even before Kass became enyingleted.

Gregory

"Don't worry Kassen! This was from a cadaver who died of natural causes." Oh, zat's.... not za worst, I guess? "The cause was the Yinglet failed the task Viracroix game him. Death is very natural and expected when that happens."

ArcadeDragon

I tend to feel that this is one of the scavs that Elim struck down a while back.

Super Shanko

Ran's unaware of it THIS time, I'm sure

Avi (yinglet)

Think it's a tongue, considering Kass's last update was on the intricacies of the yinglet tongue.

Fox Starwing

Given the size of the "wet storage" cabinet, I'd say Ran has random pickled EVERYTHING parts.

John C Butler

"I'm sure Ran has opened up a random Street Scav to see how they're put together" -Kass' journals. Boy, howdy.

John C Butler

Ran, I really hope you're just trolling here. Otherwise what the fuck even.

Vicroc4

It kinda does look like a yinglet tail or something. Maybe from a Lesser Yinglet.

Vicroc4

Yea me too Kass, me too. Ran what the fuck

LenoraTheYinglet

Kass's face in that last panel is begging to be made into an emote or used as a reaction image template.

kurogetsui

I too wonder why he has random pickled yinglet parts just laying about his office...
