Yep, it was all a ruse. Some of you actually called this one back when the MiBs were chatting with Felicia. I was a little scared, to be honest...

And you remember when Captain Happy murdered a government agent, right?

Yeah, the guy had it coming...

The thing that scares me is that this page has been in the bag since 9 December 2016, long before a certain war on the truth and on media began.

Right now, in real time, Captain Happy is decidedly NOT happy.

But yes, he is kind of a fanboy of Felicia... :)

I've already uh voiced my opinion on Captain Happy's stabbiness.

And yes, a little birdie has assured that Happy will catch hell for his insolence.

As Prez43 once (stupidly) said: "bring it on".

Happy can take it. He was BORN ready.

Ooh, they are in cahoots! And now Felicia is off to snipe hunt in New Mexico! (Snipes from outer space!?)

A little background...

Frank is Captain Happy's mentor. This came about because Happy discovered that Frank is a spook, and after talking it out (at gunpoint), Frank realized that Happy could do a lot of the things he had always wanted to do but couldn't, owing to official ties to United States intelligence and the bureaucracy involved.

They DO have disagreements, but they are on the same side of most things.

And yeah, they gave Felicia just enough to keep her interested, but not in what's going on in the city.

We'll see more about this next update. :)

It would seem Felicia is lucky to have this guy ON her side!

That bottom panel looks super cool!!

She certainly is. Though, to be fair, it's a fine line between "keeping an eye on" and "stalking".

And thanks! I wanted to show what he did back on this page, but that wasn't quite the right time. So a little flashback seemed in order. :)

Like I said "street justice"......

I don't think Frank's misdirection is going to distract Felicia for very long. She might not realize that it was deliberate, but she'll know it wasn't helpful. :)

RE: "street justice"

Absolutely. :)

RE: midirection

You're right. She's going to find out that the investigation she is on does not lead to what happened in Autumn Bay. It does give her a story, though. :)

This dialogue is really good. Low-key, smart, and it feels real. (Also feels more than a little influenced by the Let it Ride 'verse, which is a further compliment -- perhaps to multiple persons.)

Thanks!

The dialogue is 100% Team AB, but it is possible that Team LIR has had an effect (since they like to steal our characters over there...)
