SPQR Pencils: CXIX

[spqrblues]

I finished the pencils but was too tired to ink last night, I'm sorry to report. Pencil preview (spoilers, etc.) below the cut, but the finished inks will be posted this morning if I can get them done quickly before I need to get back to work!

Felix and his little girl = ♥. Plus the shading on his face in that panel is just amazing.

Also, what/who are you referencing for the custom of paternal acceptance?

Yaaay! Congratulations! ^_^

AW LOOK AT HIS LITTLE SMILE.

I don't know what it is about this comic that inspires so many all-caps comments from me.

Lovely tender expression on Felix's face. Wonderful stuff!

Aww... congrats, Felix !

Now of course it's too late to free the mother before the birth. Unless maybe the witness can be bribed with a second jar of fish-pickle ?

Oh man, that's awesome! Congratulations. I hope Spendusa recovers quickly, poor thing. I love Felix's smile. It's just s charming. I love that apology from the midwife, and the way Felix's smile completely obviates it. Maybe daughters aren't as valuable as sons, but he certainly seems to love his little one.

MAZEL TOV!

And now they'd better hurry their asses up to get Spendusa retroactively freed and claim it happened before the baby was born. Maybe two jars of fish-pickle sauce for that guy.

YAY!!!

Proud papa. Good work.

I hope I'm wrong

I'm elated at Felix accepting his daughter, but I remembered something that I read and now I'm dreading about poor Spendusa's fate.

I hope that I'm wrong. I remembered about the family group found in the boat shelters in Herculaneum which included a slave girl sheltering a baby in her arms.
