I mean, can we blame Pete for putting a barely protected curse? I don't think he'd think the curse would lead to this demonic... thing

Actually, now that I think about it, Trinket IS a corvid.

The coin, it seems, has a slight flaw;
no shields against being broken
up into pieces like two or four
and spread about as a token.
Trinket teleports to her ‘boss’
right when he doesn’t need her most.
He’s desperate now; at a loss
at how to avoid being toast.
Losing control he never had,
Steward’s backed into a corner.

"Such a simple curse," "Hardly any protections."

Eudoant's throwing some shade there on Pete's handiwork. Though to be fair, Pete didn't have much reason to expect his curse to be co-opted by demons.

Yeah, that bit of snark from the demon-deer did seem to be a targeted put-down. Maybe Eudoant and Pete have a little history?

And "H'lo, Trinket" ... Couldn't resist one more "shiny", could yah? Still, nice to see you again, you little feathered trickster.

Heh password was probably something like 12345 (same as his luggage) :lol:

Also, this is something totally random, but I legit wonder if Eudoant can fly with those ears (like the Flying Nun).

Is it just me, or did Trinket grow alarmingly in size the last time we saw her?

*Her, and you're right, last time we saw her she only only came up to Steward's ear when on his shoulder. Now she's easily bigger than his head.

Next time we see her, she'll be big enough to become his Transportation. :P

I still get the impression that Trinket has a better head on her shoulders about all this than Steward. Which begs the question: Why is she still there?

I find it reassuring that there may at least be some thing Rick finds tricky to draw (although it still seems pretty good to me).

Even though it looks like for now that Steward is being spared and nothing painful is going to happen to him I am pretty sure its only a temporary stay of execution. Also, there is Trinket! She’s back now! If only she could have been the voice of reason a bit more sooner. :oops:

That's why Eudoant broke the coin in three, it's just to pay the little demon and also himself, as seems, and before the deal conclusion... :roll: The remaining part is for Steward and Trinket, then. Yeah, Trinket was there most of the time, but wasn't visible till now. :P Indeed, if the demons wanted to rob you, they had really used that hummer on you... ;)

Avian sense of adventure ... oh, and shinys. Don't forget the shineys when we're talking about Trinket.

I'm thinking that the alt text ended up coming about because Rick was tired of people asking about Trinket. :lol:

If we want to see her more, we just have to imagine that she is hiding behind somebody or something since Rick doesn't like to draw her! :lol:

A moment Steward's dreaded
Leaves him fully-headed,
Demons are evil, that's true,
But they won't steal and cheat you.

The bird has a point, that's scary,
But as they delve into a situation hairy,
Remember, curses are easily corrupted,
Beware or find your lives abrupted.
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!

At the end of this I think Steward is gonna find his life MORE than abrupted.

I'm sure that the dreary abyss that is Hell also has accountants and they end up being forced to constantly work with no end in sight.
