    H-he didnt kill Scout did he?
    PLEASE GOD NO
    DFGDFHGJGHJFHJH
    *is now paranoid*

  2. Momowoo

    The first thing I thought after I saw Rojo as scout was OH MY GOD IS BLU SCOUT OKAY

  3. Artemis

    Goddamn Rojo. What a way to get my hopes up about conflict resolution, then dash them ridiculously.

    I agree with Momowoo. Now I really, really need to see if Scout is okay. I feel all protective over him.

  4. winterXsoldier

    Hullo…I’ve been reading this since June of 2009, but I haven’t commented yet, so this is kinda weird for me…

    Anyway, this is a great page, as always. BLU!Scoot in the sixth panel just looks different, which is probably what you were going for, and it’s really cool for foreshadowing and everything. I really love panel ten, too. The movement and flow, and the cocky look on RED!Spy’s face is great.

    Also, @Liljj: Now that I read your comment, I’m paranoid, too. D:

  5. Sirdownloadsalot

    I new something was off with him when he was eaing a sandvich.
    THATS THE HEAVYS SANDVICH

  6. AkiraRen

    Ok…now im confused as hell e_e

  7. Kate

    Sneaking into the enemy base to pilfer foodstuffs because you can? That’s a douchebag move if I’ve ever seen one. I hope he was just poking around and naught else…

  8. Jessica C. Duck

    Eye color!

    ;___; Now I am worried about BluScout

    Though, I’m begining to like Rojo.

  10. TheBobIsComing

    yea i had a feeling blu scout was weird when he didn’t say cockfag or some other gay slur. xD
    i was like, what? when he left the room and didnt even say one curse word at all

  11. Sleepy_Eyes

    FAH. ROJO. FAAAAAAAAAH.

    And I twitchingly join the ranks of those worried about BLUScout.

  12. DoomTrout

    I’ll bet Scout’s just out roaming or in the showers >:D Bet what tipped him off was that Spy/Scout didn’t call him a gay slur

  13. Yoshis

    oho :o

  14. Frayed

    It’s kind of funny, reading what tipped others off that it wasn’t really Scout (and some who missed until Bleu figured it out). The red flag for me was the “I forgive you I guess,” part. Then I noticed the eye color and thought, “The Scout’s a Spy!” That thought was quickly followed by, “Oh god, where’s the real Scout!?”

    Roho’s such a bastard, and yet I’m loving his character. However, if he’s hurt Scout… I don’t know if that will stay the same or if I’ll start hating him. I’ve never wondered that. Good on ya.

  15. Mage

    Uh, hi. Long-time reader, first-time commenter.

    Wonderful comic, as always! I really like the little clues leading up to the revelation of the RED Spy. (So, we’re calling him Roho/Rojo?) The lines of dialogue, the indifferent expression, the eye colour…

    I just hope Scout’s alright. I got a bad feeling about this…

  16. Bunni

    I thought the sandvich was really out of place. And then at the “I forgive you” part, I was like wat what did he do?

    FFFFF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

  17. AnnilyLF

    Argh, goddamn Rojo is frustrating. Jeezus fuck he’s starting to seem almost CHARMING. I HATE HIM MORE.

    Also, I’m also a little worried about Scoot. Ever since you killed off Gabe I think everyone is terrified you’re gonna do that again. ;-;

  18. crocie

    hmmm, i did notice the absence of the ‘cock-fag’ greeting usual to bluscoot. But i think he would have dropped that started calling him spy like everyone else.

    next time- blu spy meets blu scout. scout adress’s blu spy as spy instead of cock-fag, blu, thinking something out of place again, pulls gun. [or some other similar reaction for out of character scout] [then realises he's wrong, and that he's hurt scouts feelings :3]

  19. LonelyTimeLord

    Oh no… what’s happened to Scout!? He better be ok… maybe Blu will realise what Scout really means to him *wink* if Scout goes missing for a couple of days.

    Lovely new page as always, keep up the great work

  20. qqtt991

    so. much. suspense.

    THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!111one

    i have to go back to school nao.

  21. JeKo

    omg i saw his eyes were green and im like “it’s MIGUELLLL!!!!” haha

  22. Damien

    Don’t hurt Scoot! Sure, put him in relative peril, but don’t hurt him!

  23. Sean

    Very nice with that subtle little tip off…and the somewhat less subtle fact that BluScout’s not exactly a guy with understated emotions. *secretly hopes that somehow, this will involve BluPyro’s tendency to do late night spy checks, a la http://tf2.skyscrapersoup.com/?p=128 *

  24. thorin

    Red Spy is eating my sandwich!

    Espioi Gorria, espioi urdina ¿Nork irabaziko du? ;-)

  25. death_101

    chalk me up as one more worried for blu scout

  26. Mags

    I don’t see why you are all so worried about Blu Scout, he could just be in bed like a normal person…

    When I first read it, I was somewhat confused (and not at all suspicious of “scout”) with Scout’s dialogue. So, Rojo fooled me, too.

    But I agree with AnnilyLF, after Red died I am somewhat more paranoid about other characters dying.

    (Gah, Google Translate can’t translate Basque. What did he say…?)

  27. Qqtt991

    Blu shoulda just shot randomly down the hall. He woulda hit SOMETHING. Heh

  28. Mags

    Have you ever actually seen Bleu point a gun at anybody yet? But I agree, that would have been the sensible thing.

  29. Loviatar

    For those wondering: urdin is the Basque word for blue.

  30. Jazikun

    It’s “Meet the Spy” all over again! :S
    I hope doesn’t follow the story…*Worries about BLU Sniper*

  31. Scooty Puff Jr.

    HOPDFIHPJ AHAHHHHHHH HIS NAME IS MIGUEL. WUT. THAT WAS. MY BLU SPY’S. NAME. IN… MY COMIC…….. THAT I MADE……… 2 YEARS AGOAT…………. *CORNER CRY*
    but newaiz
    SANDWI– I mean SCUT BETTER NOT BE DEAD I SWERR. I WILL… I WILL……… I- I’M MAD. IMMA MAKE MAH OWN COMIC WHERE NOBODY DIES THEN IMMA BE HAPPY SOUL AND HAVE THANKSGIVING DINNER WITH GORDON FREEMAN.
    –LOVE MOM.

  32. suburban cactus

    but…Rojo was just hanging out in Spy’s room eating a sandwich? I don’t get it. Was he just there to mess with Spy?

  33. godfish

    I wasn’t thinking about it before, but Suburban Cactus got me confused. :o What /was/ RED Spy doing in Spy’s room?

    Also, I’ve been wondering for a while now, who’s Spy talking to while he’s narrating?

  34. Mags

    I think that they were in the kitchen. ‘Cuz there was a stove and all :3

  35. Erika

    Oh, no! where is my Scoot? D=

  36. Shell

    … What was he doing in BSpy’s room, anyway?

  37. JeKo

    ‘Jeremy’ looks like a snake in panel 6 D:

  38. Pesky

    So….. Is Scout still alive or did you kill him too?

  39. Jessica C. Duck

    @Mags
    I am glad I am not the only one who has to use Google Translate.

    @Scooty Puff Jr.
    I can’t let you do that officer.

  40. Mags

    As am I. But, did you actually understand Scooty Puff Jr. meant by that…? Right about ‘thanksgiving’ is where I get lost. Er wait, it was the ‘happy soul’ part. :/

  41. suburban cactus

    oh wait ha ha. I see the stove now. X D

  42. Momowoo

    @Mags

    The thanksgiving dinner thing is a reference to a badly written Half-Life fanfic called “Half-Life: Full Life Consequences.”

  43. Mags

    Oh. Thanks for clearing that up, I guess…

  44. sad face

    If Scout dies I’m ditching this comic.

  45. sad face

    Just kidding, I’d never do that.
    He better not be dead, though :(

  46. Jessica C. Duck

    @Mags
    The best part is the video someone made of it. It’s somewhere on YouTube…
    And the birds and the sun was almost down from the top of the sky.

  47. Coco

    I knew something was wrong when scout didn’t call him “cockfag”

  48. Qqtt991

    I wonder if anyone heard BLU yell ‘spy’…

    I hope the soldier heard… Lol.
    Him and his shovel.

  49. frills

    i’m betting that no one heard. and also won’t believe him.
    i’m also betting that blu scoot or blu sniper dies next :(

  50. Flooky

    @frills: zomg nuuuuu. can’t we just be optimistic?

  51. Qqtt991

    I kinda want it but I don’t! I AM SO COMFUSED!!!

  52. Mags

    …want what? Blu Spy or Blu Scout to DIE?

  53. crocie

    i’m guessing blu spys friendship with blu pyro is going to pay off in a big way.
    I’m foreseeing bluspy cornered by red pyro. Then a showdown between blu pyro and red pyro, in which blu pyro will die, but blu spy will escape.
    Man, from here on in i can see some tragic shit happening. This has alot of potential, CAN’T WAIT!!
    Good work Heironymus!! keep it up!!

  54. Bagelsan

    “Was he just there to mess with Spy?”

    Clearly he was flirting! Like the dysfunctional, Blu-Spy-pigtail-pulling little sociopath he is! Oh, Red Spy you crazy evil bastard. *romantic sigh*

  55. Qqtt991

    I want VIOLENCE!! I need it to survive!!

    >:D

  56. Max

    Well, from what we’ve seen so far, I think that killing people off the clock isn’t allowed. Rojo so far hasn’t seemed to have any reason to break the rules, so it makes the most sense that he was just trying to get Blu spy to admit something, or testing him, or just plain messing with him.

  57. Littoria

    *freakout*

  58. Mags

    Nu. I mean, I don’t mind some action, but… I want everybody to live. ;.; Even evilly cool people like Red Spy…
    They should all live happily ever after after escaping the war. And yeah.

  59. Shiny

    Lawls.

    You’re enjoying the havok you cause aren’t you Heiro?
    I get that way when I know what happens next, and my friends are all freaked out cause they have no clue. They keep guessing, and getting all tense. It’s really funny >:D

    Btw, I don’t mean in this comic, but in random things like a game or something.

  60. Qqtt991

    Well i suppose I could live off minor injury…
    Bah! FEED MEEE!!!! >:O

    …I’m just being weird now…

    Admit what? What does he have to admit??
    Hostage situation please! >:D
    hah. Tie up spy till he says whatever.
    Lol

    dah! Now I’m spitting out my daydream fantasies!!

  61. sheep

    i wish he would make the panels faster

  62. Qqtt991

    Oh me too.
    But I can wait.

  63. Mags

    (guiltliy checks page at school)

    I’ve been thinking, I’d like to see the paper version of this comic… just to see what it’s like on paper. Please? :3

  64. TRbuddy

    No offense intended, but you ought to download a better font for his commentary, this one looks kinda … gross.

  65. DoomTrout

    I feel so bad D: I had to double check previous pages because I forgot Scoot’s eye color! I’ma go cry myself to sleep now…

  66. Mags

    I think the font is fine…

  67. LonelyTimeLord

    I don’t mind the font, and yes I too did not notice the difference in Scout’s eye colour “lower’s head in shame” I will be on the look out in the future :P

  68. Less

    Wait, what font? Isn’t everything handwritten?

  69. Delayder

    Yikes man! Havent had a read for a while but im having a blast with this! Keep up and dont let us lovers down!!

  70. Mags

    Less, it’s the blue “thought” font. But yeah, the talking is handwritten.

  71. Qqtt991

    Wow 70 comments. Is that a new record?

    Lol I check the page at school too. But I own an iPod touch so I don’t need a computer.

  72. Orin J.

    Maybe some Pyro on Spy action coming up

    Perhaps it’s time for the comic to get a forum. Or does it have one?

  73. Mags

    It doesn’t, not yet. But I’d really like it to. That would be awesome… :D

  74. Heironymus

    I can put one up, but you guys gotta use it. I’ve tried forums in the past and they never got used much.

  75. Mags

    I’d use it. Seriously.

  76. Liljj

    Do it.
    Seriously, Do it.

  77. Rosii

    Succumb* to peer pressure. :D

  78. jenkinhimer

    i totally knew it wasn’t Scout, right when i saw his eyes
    it was a total “OH SHIT” moment

  79. Zoe

    I KNEW something was off about his eye color…
    Doesnt blu have blue eyes?

  80. TrueSkool

    Hey, it’s BLU Scout! How ya doin- AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!! RED SPY IS IN THE BASE!!!! SOMEONE GET SOLDIER!!!!

  81. Girlspy

    *stares at 3rd panel* uh…. is that spies room…? He has a uhhh…. “Good” Calender…. O.o

  82. Heironymus

    No, it’s the kitchen. You might notice a stove and a cabinet visible in another panel.

  83. michael
