I Am a Bride

A short comic inspired by Finnish werewolf folklore in which it is many times the wedding couple and/or the entire wedding party that is bewitched to turn into wolves by a resentful guest or family member.

Yo I’m a sucker for this trope in fics, movies, show etc. every time a pairing are getting intimate and one of them caresses their partner’s face and their partner just goes like...

IT JUST MAKES MY HEART GO LIKE

So it occurred to me that ‘grawlix’ is sort of an obscure and specialized word, but what I didn’t know until I was googling around just now is that it was actually invented by cartoonist Mort Walker in his 1980 book The Lexicon of Comicana, in which he categorizes (and invents terminology for) all kinds of visual cues and shorthand commonly used in comics

In other news, this is now right up there with The Meaning of Liff as ‘books of made up words I desperately need to own”

Catullus 50

a rough translation/adaptation

Yesterday, Licinius, luxurious in leisure,

We played together, you and I, on these boards of mine.

It was agreed we’d come together

In the most charming way,

And we both scribbled down our neat little verses,

Skipping between forms,

Dallying first in one meter, then another,

Filling our tablets as often as our wine cups,

Sly jokes passing between us.

And I have to tell you, Licinius, your charms infected me-

I departed, mind on fire from your clever ways.

And since then my misery is such that mere food can’t sate me.

Nor could sleep quiet my staring eyes,

As I tossed all night on my bed, burning,

Desiring only for the light to come

So that I might be with you and talk with you.

But after, with my exhausted limbs splayed,

Lying half-dead here on my couch,

I wrote these words for you, my darling,

So by these lines, you might know my pain.

Now, be careful, delight of my eye,

Don’t be proud, and don’t disdain my offering,

Lest Nemesis repay you with punishments.

Take care- she’s an ardent goddess.
