I knew that rotten sneaky wench was up to something! Poor Justa! She needs to run away to her mother's house immediately!

I hope they DO find the will and that Vitalis is given Justa as well as a sizable chuck of his fortune! That would just server bad evil step mother right!

I love the constant doing of Justa's hair in the background while she TOTALLY ignores it. Good illustration of how darned spoiled and rich the little gril is!

Kissies.

But... but... uhm... she's too pretty to worry about whether she's spoiled?

Now taking bets on the contents of Petronius Stephanus' will. Maybe he'll leave everything to charity. (Hmm--I don't think he'd actually be allowed to do that even if he wanted....)

I think he leaves his vast forture to Justa actually. But I don't believe that he'll say much about her marriage prospects.

Unless he's got something worked out with the Domitian we don't know about. He did mention that the Emperors "sons" spent time at his house...

It would be like you to do something like that, ya know?

And wouldn't that make Felix scream?

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

What, only four comments??!! I should have shown Justa getting her hair done... topless! That brings in the punters :D

::ahem, pardon me::

Anyway, Domitian is still married to that nefarious lady who cornered Felix on a porch at a party. Titus is available, though, if you don't count the mistress. Someone needs to make an honest man of him.

Arg!

We'll, I do like Titus better.

But not better than Felix.

What would be the best way for you to torture these poor unfortunate souls? I suppose we'll find out soon enough!

I don't dare comment every time. I'd wear out my welcome with eeks and oopses and oh my!s. :)

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'll grant you leave only to comment when the story causes a particularly big EEK :D

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Oh, wait... maybe you didn't actually mean marriage.

Scandalous!

Yes, it's cool how the 'hairdresser' (Spendusa?) is hidden throughout today's comic. Illustrating how servants are invisible, but still *there*.

Maybe Spendi will tell Felix, who will tell Vitalis, and they will rescue Justa, somehow . . .

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Maybe Spendi will tell Menander the next time they visit, who will tell Mus, who will tell Felix, who will tell Vitalis... just because that's more convoluted :)

Well, if you need to stall while you wait for inspiration to move the plot forward, you could always do a strip like that!

Ooh, I like that.
