V's gender is "Divorced Parent"
Lmao this is too accurate. Still V's doing their best without custody after going on a midlife sorcery crisis bender

I was here when that link was still backwards, and you caught it so fast there's not even an edit message. :p

"Surely I don't need to preview THIS post, it's tiny.  ...but just in case- aw NUTS"

I make that mistake pretty often but usually catch it.  Thankfully the grace period for quiet edits is something like 30 seconds.  not that it comes up almost daily for me

I do lots of quick edits but not for that specific mistake. Usually changing my mind about how I want to phrase something or just noticing a mistake. I like having the setting where after hitting post it leaves me in the thread so that I can look over my post an additional time.

This feels like a filler / recap page.  I gained nothing from it.  Maybe it is some subtle set-up for an epiphany next page?

On the topic of editing posts:  Is there a way to document why the edit happened or what has changed?  It feels awkward to edit stuff after people have replied.  (We could write it in the post, but that's as trust-based as no message at all.)

No, there's no way to specify that. I think the thing to do is to avoid editing after someone's quote replied you and instead make a response. Unless it's just spelling and grammar.

Rereading it, there's one thing I noticed: Bloodfeast is following where Roy is looking throughout most of the strip. Even the panel where Roy is looking away from Julia.

I thought that too, but mostly because of the long exposition by Roy up until the last few panels. I wondered prior to those panels if the sending (or whatever spell Julia is using) could be altered in appearence by a polymorph in this setting. Did Roy divulge information the evil team didn't know already? If not, he may have been spy checking with the memory callback. Do clerics have access to a read memories type spell? I bet it's not long ranged if so. That would mean Redcloak, if the sending is from him, might not have had opportunity to use it on the real Julia, assuming minions were sent to capture Julia and the sending is not the real Julia. Are rolls to remember information in this setting (if any) done on Wisdom or Intelligence or maybe in this case Charisma? Since she's a wizard, perhaps the roll was more difficult unless it was intelligence, and especially if it was Charisma (due to the memory being about someone else).
