Ouch! No good pretending innocence - she lives with you and we know it.
I like the attitude of the stone(d?) fae towards the "newfangled kids". Shows that even if you are immortal some things don't change.
Good coloring and shading.

Delightful punchline. :)
Darius Drake says:
You washed your hands in innocence? Why, you didn't put the pun in the comic, so it is easily forgivable.

And Obelix is their local transporter? :shock:

Is that fey of stone a Databank?
Lee says:
Well, he's made of silicon...
Now why do I keep thinking of Spinal Tap?
Vulpis says:
Well, the *big* rocks do 'bleed'...it's called 'lava'. Then again...that could be just a burst pimple, geologically...
Wildfire says:
Actually, rocks neither grow, nor bleed. Lava is "liquid stone", and while mountains do get pushed up (by tectonic movement) they erode over time from sun, wind and rain. I guess that rules out immortality as well =D (Sorry for the lesson ;)

Does the planet of CtS have two moons?
Because in frame 3 it looks like there are two moons, a big and a small very small one.... or maybe the small piece broke away from the moon and is falling towars earth...
Chariset says:
I think Feiht must have noticed the moon is shiny, so she's stealing part of it
Osk says:
the stone is probably bored. its not like it can go visit the neighbours on quiet evenings
Before thinking about any carbon-silicon analogy, remember that while carbon is the important element, the carbon-based live forms are still mostly water. That is why we bleed. So no, lava can't be seen as blood-equivalent.
The same look is caused by the same sun lighting them. Astronomically, planet with two moons make much more sense that planet having moon which have moon. Of course, both is valid for our world and not necessary for The World That Is.
Someguy says:
Its a fantasy world. Its much more likely that someone just took a bite out of the moon.
The World that is does indeed have two moons, the larger one being the smallest (but closest). This was established quite a while ago already... and here I thought you all had perfect memory of even the most insignificant trivia of this strip! :P
Dragons count time not in years but in conjunctions, a near one of which is shown in this strip (to be exact, a lesser conjunction: world+moons in one line. A greater conjunction would be sun+world+moons and would have the moons either full or empty). A conjunction (lesser or greater) is the only time when the moons have the same phase and the only time they appear near in the sky.
In other words: if the moons are close together in the sky, they will have the same phase and be in conjunction (as now). However it's quite possible for one moon to be full and the other just a thin crescent, provided they're quite separate in the sky.
At one point I tried to calculate the exact orbits and then found this is called an N-body system (with N=4) and people a lot smarter than me have tried for ages without success.

Even I remembered that, and I have a terrible memory...
*holding up a "Love Da LunaS" sign* I like two moons, twice the pretty pretty shiney shiney
Myst says:
And I have to ask... why has Feight never tried to steal the moons?
Maybe the moons are far enough for pixie to lose interrest before she got near ... nah, that wouldn't work, pixies are too fast. On the other hand ... pixies are capable to be distracted really fast, so maybe ...
