AMANDA: What about the oher sarnothi?
SELKIE: Probably not?
SELKIE: I mean, Dad did say not to tell ANYONE. And they aren'ts Echoes anyway.
AMANDA: Right, so them too. We don't tell a thing.
SELKIE: What if they CAN, like... tell? Like they just sense its?
AMANDA: What are the odds of that?
TE FAHN: Ah!
SELKIE: Probably not?

TE FAHN: Ah!
Today's edition of the Secret Commentary is empty, because Dave failed to come up with something for it.
Now that it’s been said, it’ll happen…
My exact thoughts. When somebody says it out loud, the odds rapidly approach 1.
Just a thought- but they should have hot glued a ribbon over the Sarnothi tech barret Amanda’s sporting now if they wanted the Sarnothi kids to not notice it…
Yeah, da artist emphasized the barret and its bright green color in panel 3. No way in HELL that’s gonna get by Tekh.
Addressing the comments on this one, I see 🙂
This is one of the reasons why Selkie had a ribbon on her suppression barrette. No black and green glowy giveaway. Maybe one of the adults should have realized that?
I think Selkie just realized that. Wonder what she’ll come up with to hide that black-and-green glowy look?
Nothing to do with this strip. It just hit me that Amanda is living with her biological mother AND is adopted. I understand that some adopted kids worry that they will be sent back if they screw up (and I think this has happened to Amanda?) but being with a mother who already gave her up once has got to be worrying. I’m surprised Amanda is as well adjusted as she is.
They gonna be revered?
Which Sarnothi child is in panel 5?
It’s Te Fahn. Tehk has brown hair. https://selkiecomic.com/comic/selkie1380/
If they don’t bring it up, you don’t bring it up.
first of all, damn it amanda you know these tropes and what not to say.
secondly. he will probably see it as sarnoti tech, take it to look at it and ask where she got it and everyone will notice then.
