damn Alfie is such a bitch

Posted on 10 September 2023, 23:20 by: Vorin 22

Ah and so continues the self destructive spiral.

Posted on 10 September 2023, 23:42 by: 13rucell

On the one hand, I can kinda get where Alfie's coming from considering where they left off. On the other hand she's being a bitch.

Posted on 11 September 2023, 04:06 by: FishySoldieR

I totally get it, she's been so angry for so long it's impossible to just let it go all at once no matter how good an apology.

Posted on 11 September 2023, 05:33 by: meficrow

If this doesn't end in at least one incestuous threesome, I'm going to lose all respect for Incase.

Posted on 11 September 2023, 17:00 by: omen666

Lesbian incest is the only way to salvation.

Posted on 12 September 2023, 08:58 by: superbontino

@FishySoldieR

Yeah, plus she was so ready for a (long desired) confrontation that Vera's apologies caused Alfie's brain to go in full 404 error.

Posted on 14 September 2023, 17:19 by: Shannon St.Claire

Firmly rooting for Vera at this point. Of the two, she's the one who's shown to have actually had some growth. I mean, yes, Vera was in the wrong on Kupala night and Alfie is justified in her anger but this presentation shows no growth for Alfie at all. She hasn't learned from her fallout with any of her friends, she hasn't learned from the way people have attempted to use her and then blame her for things. She hasn't taken anything away from how people have abandoned her and her mother is the only one to this point who has shown a dedication to wanting Alfie to be happy. Even her look isn't something she deliberately chose; she was going to go to the Big Party as she was and the Goblins just didn't like how she was dressed. At least with Vera, you could see her changing her look back to pants as a function of her being more adventurous again the way she was when she met Derik.

Posted on 14 September 2023, 19:10 by: Drakhesh

Lo and behold, people are still hating on Alfie.
"Oh, Alfie hasn't learned anything"
What was she supposed to learn? That her own mother said to her face Alfie and her father make her miserable? That her own mother practically called her a deviant for sleeping with a woman? Or that her own mother is a hypocrite of highest order, berating her daughter for sins she herself was more than happy to perform - all of which make the apology ring hollow? Because I think Alfie learned that well.
Or should she had learned she cannot trust her so-called friends since they have no respect for her privacy, dragging out her life into the public with *zero* consideration how it might hurt her? Or how she cannot rely on them since even when she tries to make things right, they will first accept it, but then scorn her anyway? Or how she should expect hypocrisy from them when they condemn her for "being a rat" and "scheming" - but having no qualms about benefitting from what she does - since last time i checked, Lydia and Marco were perfectly content with their new elven boytoy. She had learned that as well.
Or perhaps she should learn that she cannot count for a relationship with Ogze, because gods forbid she does anything wron and the goat lady will send her off to the friendzone, because gods frbid someone being imperfect and making mistakes? She learned that too.

She learned all of it. She learned she will always be scorned, and her attempts to fix things are mocked and disregarded. That her own mother is a hypocrite. She's surrounded by awful peopel who project their shitynes on her - calling her a bad friend when it's them that acted horribly.

And oh sure, Vera has had some growth - except Alfie wasn't there to see it unlike us readers. What did Alfie saw?
She saw her mother, who berated her for sleeping with a married woman, being perfectly happy to let a man be intimate with her - a married woman. The peak of hypocrisy.

Seriously, it's like people expect Alfie to be some paragon of empathy and forgivness when all the people in her life do is betray her trust. "How dare you be upset that your hypocrite mother hurt you and your friends betrayed your trust Alfie - stop beign a bitch and accept their horrible behavior!"

Posted on 15 September 2023, 14:10 by: Rubikscube12

@drakhesh actual 10/10 comment. Alfie is unironically emotionally traumatized and people just expect to just randomly get over that.

Posted on 15 September 2023, 15:38 by: Chojiin

I don’t have a problem with Alfie’s reaction, or think it’s unfair. I also don’t have a problem that she’s in a bit of a… spiral.

What I would have a problem with, and what I see too many people do, is stay in that spiral. Too many people marinate in their pain and anger without taking stock of themselves, and improve despite others.

That’d just make her an emo goth. And while big tittied emo goth havlings are hot, I hope she can find a balance to not be miserable.

Posted on 15 September 2023, 19:31 by: Drakhesh

@Chojiin

The issue is (and here I speak from unpleasant personal experience) that you don't just randomly get off the spiral like that. You need help - be it professional help, or the support of people close to you while you try to fix things.

And keep in mind, Alfie tried to fix herself. Even though the whole situation was not her fault when Lydia and Marco forced her to either admit she's promiscuous and be scorned by society or betray her friends, she tried to move past it, admit to her nature and fix her relationship with her friends. And what was the result?
Ogze her it does not matter and outright admitted she thinks Alfie's sexuality is disgusting, her friends seemingly accept her back but mere days later go back to calling her rat and schemer even though the 'schemes' (if you can call setting up one encounter a scheme) benefit them a lot.

It is often repeated a lot that Alfie is a bad friend and daughter - but honestly, what the fuck is Lydia, Marco and Ogze doing to be good friends. because the list of them being shitty people is long. Bizarrely, the closest thing Alfoe has to actual friend is Hana.

Posted on 17 September 2023, 09:42 by: SilverCut

I still hope that some of the other character received some comeuppance for their shitty behaviour. It seems like Alfie has been the only one eating shit for acting out but all the other characters are Karma Houdinis (*koff* a certain elf *koff*)

Posted on 21 September 2023, 23:13 by: smartz118

If any of you guys actually read the previous 17 chapters of this comic, you would understand Alfie's reaction. She was chased off by her mother, and after months and months of trying to discover herself, she discovers that life is complicated and cruel sometimes, and her mother, the very person who chased her off, wants her back, along with a guide who ends up being her boy-toy in tow. Her earlier interactions with different people and asking them questions is her trying to see which kind of life would suit her because at the moment, the people she is with is really not helping her mental health.
@Shannon St.Claire
Even if Vera had some growth, the fact of the matter is that she was the cause of Alfie's problem, and Alfie wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place if she actually been supportive. Alfie has no idea what Vera has been through, and Vera knows nothing of what Alfie has gone through, so why should Alfie take any of Vera's words at face value when all she has learned is that people say one thing and do another all the time, especially her first antagonist, her mother?

Ah, alcohol! Once again you will save family relations!

Posted on 28 September 2023, 04:30 by: RuneGrey

I ironically have been here - my relationship with my own mum was terrible until I was an adult - we never got along, always fought, and I wanted her gone from my life.

Discovered about five years later my father had been cheating on her for most of their marriage and she was struggling to keep their marriage together for my sake. People deal with shit in different ways, so I can feel for Alfie and Vera here. Alfie's initial reaction is remembering the rest of the shit she's dealt with, but Vera's clearly changed - I'm interested in seeing how they develop from here.

Not boding great for the amount of sex in the near future, of course.

Posted on 28 September 2023, 04:32 by: Liquid Shadow

@Shannon
/s/b81924dd22/2339474-384 <- This was their last interaction with each other.
/s/a00f6a2d23/2339474-453 <- Alfie's final message to Vera.

What do you think Alfie wants? She didn't want to see her mother at all, but now that she is here she wants the confrontation that has likely been playing in her head on repeat. She wants to finally lash out at her crotchety old hypocritical bitch of a mother. She wants to pay back all of her recent suffering to its source, her mother. The woman that drove her to leave when she should have been a pillar of support when Alfie was struggling with who she was in an oppressively prudish community.

Everything Alfie has gone through has been a direct result of Vera lashing out at her and using her own daughter as an emotional punching bag. Vera has grown and changed as a result of losing her daughter because of her own actions, but Alfie doesn't want that. She wanted to cut Vera out of her life completely, only to find the source of her misery has followed her all the way here. As far as Alfie is concerned, the best thing Vera could have done is let her go.

But now that Vera is here, Alfie WANTS Vera to bite back, to be the same bitch she remembers her to be. She wants to finally fight back against her tormentor and lay into her, but Vera isn't the same woman Alfie remembers her to be, and that is eating Alfie more than anything else could right now. She doesn't want to forgive Vera, she wants payback, to hurt her like she was hurt, and she wants to hurt her even more after seeing her mother commit the same sin she exploded on Alfie over.

Ok, as much as Alfie has been an unstable bitch lately, her trolling her mother over banging Alduin was hilarious.

Posted on 05 October 2023, 00:05 by: Draupnir7

People are so used to seeing a steady dicking or rugmunching smooth things over. Let two fairly decent characters with some depth have a reasonably accurate tense interpersonal encounter.
Vera will get some more dick after, I assure you.

Posted on 05 October 2023, 22:17 by: ronnoc

Props to Incase for almost immediately starting the "smoothing things out" arc in this chapter, I hate it when authors try to artificially stretch out conflict and tension.

Posted on 06 October 2023, 20:11 by: DeepPzizzl

Finally. JUST TALK is here.

Posted on 07 October 2023, 19:08 by: Liquid Shadow

God damn, you cringe-inducing cunts. I want sexy make-up lesbian incest too, but *after* they've had the climactic confrontation that finally resolves the main plot of the story. This is them finally discussing the grievances, misunderstandings, and emotional turmoil that caused the entire story to happen, let it be a serious moment instead of whining about how they haven't started fucking yet.

Some of us actually like having plot in our porn and are here for the story just as much as the sexy pictures.

Readers need to remember that Vera underwent lots of personal growth on her journey....but Alfie doesn't know that! The last time she saw her mom, Vera was yelling at her and traumatizing her after catching her with Melly. So there's a lot of anger still on Alfie's side - she doesn't know how much Vera developed and grew because she didn't witness it.

Posted on 01 November 2023, 18:05 by: Shannon St.Claire

Unlike most of Incase's other work which is either one-offs or short comics solely about the titillation, Alfie has been about character development and has spanned literal years. It shouldn't be surprising that it invites discussion and analysis.

Posted on 03 November 2023, 12:46 by: Drakhesh

@ Shannon St.Claire

I like when people call out Alfie lying to the caravan, as if that was a decision made solely on some deeply rooted desire to lie just for the sake of lying.
Because it's not like the entire caravan, except Hana, outright shunned her whe the truth came out. It's not like all the women in the caravan began to treat her like filth, not even hiding their contempt and disgust. And it's not like all the men in the caravan either joined n the practice, or began propositioning her like she's a cheap whore.

People like you outright ignore the fact that there were very real consequences for alfie to tell the truth. Just like Marco ignores it. It's easy to expect and tell someone "just don't lie and always tell the truth", when they don't have to deal with any fallout of being honest.
Marco, Lydia and Alfie are all sexually open. Except despite it, only Alfie is being openly hated for it. Alfie is the only one havign to deal with beign called slut about a dozen times when she has to go through the camp - somethign both Marco and Lydia are conviniently spared. Maby because Marco is a man so being promiscuous is not seen asbeing a slut. And maby Lydia is spared because anyone who'd call her a slut would have his teeth knocked out.

I sympathize deeply with Alfie's position for a simple reason - I'm gay. And not living in nice progressive area of a western world where it is pretty much accepted. I grew up in are where were my sexuality ever became known, I'd have the everloving shit beaten out of me for it. So I know deeply and uncomfortably that sometimes "living honestly" is just a nice sentiment. It's easy being honest when it does not carry consequences.

Alfie is rage baiting her mom. She's saying the most vile things possible and putting herself in the worst possible light to get a reaction out of Vera, since she can't stand how reasonable and accepting Vera was being. She needs her mom to snap at her so she can retaliate. It's clear that she doesn't believe half the shit that is currently coming out of her mouth and was obviously uncomfortable when the gob bitch called Vera a cunt. It's hard to watch, but that's just because it's great character writing.

Posted on 12 November 2023, 01:26 by: DScy31

Holy fucking essaying. I actually love how invested and passionate people are about this comic and it characters

Posted on 16 November 2023, 02:29 by: Balistik Intsik

Me seeing Alfie update after a long time: "HOLY SHIT!"

Me after reading the update: "Holy shit."

Posted on 16 November 2023, 10:29 by: Jarvis_42

OK, ya, points to the author for a character staying IN character.
She built herself up to be this flaming bitch. She held onto the bitterness toward her mother, kept picking at the wound and nurturing that hate.
Now that she sees genuine care from her mother, the woman she made out to be the epitome of evil, she has no idea WTF to do with that, so she is falling back on bitch mode.
Coming out of that is terrifying, and takes time and care. I hope she does eventually get that, but I am loving the journey.

Posted on 29 November 2023, 15:41 by: BlitzimX

I just realized that almost across the whole comic, this is the first time someone ever said "I love you" to Alfie. I think this may be the shift.

Posted on 30 November 2023, 07:58 by: Colonel Slammovich

She never got that angry confrontation with Vera and the apology and acceptance from Vera means that she never will. Best way of putting it is that Alfie had been building it up inside her head for so long and now that it has happened and it was completely different she realises how much she fucked up. It'll sink in more and either she'll try to make amends or she'll fully commit to burning the bridge.

Posted on 11 December 2023, 00:02 by: Shannon St.Claire

"I totally need to change! I actually WANT to change! Buuuuut I'm pooped so maybe I'll start on the who 'being-a-better-person' bullshit tomorrow?" might be the most realistic moment in this whole comic.

Yes, Eamas, whom we know best from chapter 7. I believe he has orders from Ailduin, but those have quite possibly nothing to do with Alfie. Ailduin’s master plan is to create cooperation between the various sentient species; members of his own caravan of peace burning down Lucernel of all places would be... something of a setback.

As for Alfie’s "It was all me!" scene: anyone else see a nice Bondage Fairies reference there?

God I cannot stop being amused on how *nothing* ever goes Alfie's way.
Like if she decided to save a poor kid from a thug that kid would end up being a serial killer or something.

Posted on 16 February 2024, 13:02 by: ninesenshi

Great job with how the elf steps in and handles things. After a thousand years of managing humans, that's exactly how good they would be. I also loved `Sweetie, your kid is an asshole'. Perfect!

CILLIAN WATCH OUT ITS A TRAP

Posted on 13 April 2024, 08:05 by: resicane

I don't know why people are over-analyzing something that is so basic. This is not complex everyone think it is. The truth is, everyone is a hypocritical piece of shit. Lydia is a hypocritical piece of shit. Marco is a hypocritical piece of shit. That elf gay guy is a hypocritical piece of shit. Almost everyone is a hypocritical piece of shit, and Alfie is the punching bag. If I was her I would just burn the bridges or even bury them. I would publish my diary and go scorched Earth. Because why the fuck not? Everyone is terrible and they corrupted an innocent but curious girl.

Hand injuries are not easy to get by but yeah hopefully it doesn't stop things.

Posted on 13 September 2024, 17:47 by: Muffdiver884

@Imagine_Breaker

The reason for the change in design is the same reason for the 6 month hiatus. He had hand issues bad enough to require surgery. Instead of retiring, he went in another direction to keep drawing.

Posted on 22 September 2024, 13:38 by: The-Kite

@Jarvis_42 I'm only speculating, but the most likely hand injury that could prevent an artist from drawing for so long and require surgery—barring an accident where the hand gets crushed/broken—is carpal tunnel syndrome. It doesn't always require surgery, but in severe cases, it causes intense hand pain, difficulty clenching a fist, and significant loss of strength. Drawing, as well as many other tasks, becomes nearly impossible. Carpal tunnel syndrome can effectively end an artist's career. It's no joke.

Surgery is a common practice for carpal tunnel syndrome, and recovery time is relatively short. However, some pain may linger, and there can be a loss of accuracy and mobility due to nerve damage, especially if the compression went untreated for too long. That said, in most cases, the hand recovers well after surgery.

I believe Incase had a severe case of CTS, underwent surgery, and adapted his style to something simpler and faster to reduce strain and minimize prolonged stress on his hand.

(For context, I'm speculating from experience: I developed carpal tunnel syndrome in my drawing hand and had to simplify my style to reduce the amount of time spent working. Luckily, I caught it early and have managed to avoid surgery through exercises.)

For those who think there's been a drop in quality, please cut the guy some slack. Hand injuries, whether from accidents or nerve damage (like carpal tunnel), are incredibly painful and can cost an artist their ability to draw entirely. Incase may or may not return to his previous style depending on the severity of his injury and how well he recovers, but if he can’t, please understand that it may be a necessary adaptation to preserve his ability to draw. Plus, this new style will likely evolve as he masters a different way of handling shapes and composition.

Incase could draw the rest of the comic in XKCD-style stick figures and I wouldn't care, I just want to see how the story ends, the writing is so good and I've followed for too long to not see it.

Posted on 27 September 2024, 22:25 by: Shannon St.Claire

Sooooooo what I'm getting here is that some of you were either a.) just picked it up around chapter 11 or 12 which was about the point when the style that the latest one changed FROM truly solidified or b.) completely ignored the fact that chapters 1 through 6 look like an almost entirely different style, including just being black & white. I'm guessing you guess MUST HAVE shat actual bricks when he first introduced color in chapter 7 or lost your collective shits in chapter 10 when he did the Voch'khari orgy in a monochome (plus red). How were none of those changes not equally jarring to your sensibilities?

How is it that anyone can follow this particular comic and, with a straight face, begin to take issue with the current style as if the style hasn't evolved? That's honestly the most underrated beauty of this comic: it's a repository of the evolution of InCase's style over the years. He doesn't have any other project that he's worked on that illustrates (almost) all his styles like this one does. It was not 17.5 chapters of one style: it has been 18 chapters of about 5 or 6 different styles, each of which faded from one to the next. Because I've said it more than once: this current style is no different than the last several chapters, it just doesn't have the outlines. Anyone who thinks that the style only just recently changed needs to go back and just glance at the changes in style in chapters 5 thru 12.

"Journal of the Hunter" looks different than "Grimlewd" which looks different than "Room & Board" which looks different than "Melting" which looks different than "The Invitation" etc, etc. "Alfie" is the only one that's been ongoing through each of those projects.

Posted on 24 November 2024, 18:18 by: Katajanmarja

To those who would like to see Cillian seduced by Alfie: Does Cillian really strike you as the kind of man who would risk his new relationship just to get to shag a young drama queen who has given solid proof of her immaturity?

The attractive power of silky skin and nice boobs on display has its limits.

If Incase is capable of including such a scene and making it credible, then he’s a masterful storyteller, so I’m not actually casting a "no" vote. I just don’t see how that would happen, unless Cillian has been lying about his past and attitudes. (True, the revelation that he might have fathered some little goblins would give some support to that possibility.)

The "I would never draw that" prank is just another sign of the author’s great sense of humor. Had the plot progressed this far in late March, we might have gotten a great Cillian × Alfie page for 1st April.

@Superman3869 They had it yesterday. Then there was that whole chaos with goblins, her mother, goblins, caravan people, goblins, her boss and goblins. Now we are at this part that may become wholesome because Alfie had enough time to gain clarity to actually make some amends or at least speak her mind in simpler way. If you want more chaos, well, there is still that uncatched goat. Gods only know, what this animal is capable of.
