+100500. That’s probably the greatest thing in this episode. It’s totally in-character and looks pretty normal since Viracroix is even borrowing some cultural elements from yinglets, but it is still so lovely to see marked in bold font.
Time to see just how much Vizlet can buck the traditional Yinglet patriarchy. Its the Council that’s likely who hired Brakka, and we’ll see Narklet (oop 27) as the council’s hand in this. I’m thinking Vizlet will end up in with the Trademaster when she gets removed as Matriarch by the Yinglet council eventually.
Still though, what’s the Council’s game? What’s their objective? So far it just seems they want to keep the status quo. That obviously would involve a coup against Vizlet.
I’m just very unsure of the goals of both sides are here.
I’m not sure maintaining status quo would require removing Vizlet, as she is very much a part of said state.
Also, i’m not 100% certain the entire council is into those schemes.
Think the two main series OOP and learn to live might not take place in the exact same time, but both are getting to the story of the council in different ways at the same time. I’d like to think Vislet and Kass founded Mori’s Yinglet renegades he’s ran into. Probably wrong, but some of those Yinglets do look a awful lot like Kass and Vislet.
@ Anon, actually there are several. In order of quality (IMHO) Learn to Live, which is the one you will re-read just for the gorgeous artwork and storyline. New Ties, where Yinglets make first contact with the Federation of the Star Trek universe (why not the baxxids?), and Scav’s Glory, which takes a random yinglet from the pages of OOP and throws him into a adventure to prove himself worthy of honor.
Chasing Bolide is also an amazing spin off, zat now has more pages zan OoPs. Fenric’s Yinglet Love story has 20 pages so far. And Forgotten Futures is za newest Yinglet comic I know of.
So that is six Oops spin offs I know of so far. Hoo knows how many more to come!
Here I zot ve vere all random yinglets, cuz only za matriarch can (sometimes) get us to follow any logical seek-went-shul order for more zan half a minnit!
FYI I had to hit “Tab” on my keyboard a couple of times to get the login to wordpress, without the login there, I couldn’t post. It appears as a dirty red lettering on the top right corner near the OOP Logo’s yinglet head.
Well Brakka now has a slightly better chance of surviving this. But not much.
Have to say nice secret meeting. Nice to see the trademaster’s spy figures he would get along with Beizel.
The last comic stated that a all black Yinglet has sired Feena’s eggs, and now we see a all black Yinglet saying he has been busy. Heh. Yeah he’s been busy all right @ <3 !!
It was spoken with 4 “A”s but with yinglet’s speech impediments versus a human’s, Can’t really say she would actually spell it with 4 letter a’s. Do yinglets spell words without the “TH” in writing? I’d think not. Certainly Cass don’t yet.
Yinglet don’t spell, vich is okay cuz most hyoomins don’t spell very good eizzer!
If she says her name is Feeeena, ya gotta stretch it out like zat or you’re disrespectin’ her. Doing it wrong makes you a special specific yinglet hoo is trying to put yourself more important zn on of za yingladys. Zat’s a sure way to keep yourself out of za Matriarch’s schedule. So keep doing zat only if you perfer street-fancies to so pritty ladies!
Someone is about to become very, very dead. That someone being a particularly short-sighted skav that shanked Kass’ best bud. I wonder what particularly gruesome end they’ll choose? Multiple-choice is also an option.
They’re Beizel and some guy,
Beizel and some guy,
One is a yinglet,
But each one’s a spy,
For cloak and dagger work,
They’ll never, ever shirk.
They’re Beizel, they’re Beizel and some guy guy guy guy guy!
Spies!
Nice! You paraphrased a song that I don’t even remember lyrics to (not even in my native language). The last time I heard it, was around 15-20 years ago, but my brain immediately started a melody in my head when I finished reading. That’s a good job. Cheers!
Does anyone else find it kinda odd that the last few pages have been their own independent little stories? Like, each page they go to a different place with different characters. Perhaps Val is doing this as a sort of time skip while Elim is recovering?
This is more like showing how the news is spreading and how everyone is reacting to the stabbing. Once the news is done making the rounds we’ll probably see more characters acting on it rather than reacting to it, which is what we’re starting to see here.
Nothing indicates this isn’t still the same day (now night) as the trip to the nursery. Kass is probably very sleep deprived by now.
I’m hoping Isher will get more Kass time while Elim is recovering (as Kass’ new bodyguard), so a time skip would be less than ideal.
Think its a shift in the story from “It sucks to be a yinglet” to “I have less than 20 years to live, and I’ll be dammed if its spent running away from life”. That shift means Kass living in a larger world than when she was hiding from it.
I’m not complaining. I just wish we had a bit of a story arc going on instead of jumping to a new group each page. I’m just eager to see what happens next
Think its called comedy. Sal Valia kind of likes a chuckle now and again. If you like your ratbird extra spicy, might read “Learn to live” on Deviant Art. Just follow the links on this page to the deviant art link, then to his favorites. There is another called Scav’s Glory, but the storyline has kind of lost me as being too out of tone to OOP’s.
I’m having a rough time in my Live right now and just discovered this comic a few days ago, but i have read to this point for the 3rd time already and the Story is hitting me on so many levels. You are doing such a Great Job and i want moar! I want it all 😀
Wow, thanks a lot for sharing that! Really glad to hear that there’s something (and/or somethings) in this story that have reached out to you. And don’t worry, I’m definitely not stopping this anytime soon. : D
Yay!
I love that they have a ton of respect for each other.
+100500. That’s probably the greatest thing in this episode. It’s totally in-character and looks pretty normal since Viracroix is even borrowing some cultural elements from yinglets, but it is still so lovely to see marked in bold font.
RIGHT???
oooh a cool update! i love Beizel and this is a really interesting development! Ov O
Beizel develops things, it’s his job!
Time to see just how much Vizlet can buck the traditional Yinglet patriarchy. Its the Council that’s likely who hired Brakka, and we’ll see Narklet (oop 27) as the council’s hand in this.

She isn’t though. She is very progressive, wanting yinglets to learn from humans like she has, which the Counsil is vehimately against.
Think the two main series OOP and learn to live might not take place in the exact same time, but both are getting to the story of the council in different ways at the same time. I’d like to think Vislet and Kass founded Mori’s Yinglet renegades he’s ran into. Probably wrong, but some of those Yinglets do look a awful lot like Kass and Vislet.
Hold up, did Valsalia ever say LTL was canon to OOP?
Nah, it’s more of an alternate-timeline “what-if” side story : D
Wait what’s the other series?
@ Anon, actually there are several. In order of quality (IMHO) Learn to Live, which is the one you will re-read just for the gorgeous artwork and storyline.

You claim to be a random yinglet but I am pretty sure you’re a specific one!
Oh Captain, My Captain!
Here I zot ve vere all random yinglets, cuz only za matriarch can (sometimes) get us to follow any logical seek-went-shul order for more zan half a minnit!
There’s always a small group of people carrying out dirty work.
Yeah, the street cleaners take out a lotta trash

Yinglet Assassin’s Guild
Brakka’s day just went from bad to worse.
The Yinglet Assassin reminds me of Skaven.
That comment manages to insult both Skaven and Yinglets. (Though you aren’t wrong).
Well Brakka now has a slightly better chance of surviving this. But not much.
Have to say nice secret meeting. Nice to see the trademaster’s spy figures he would get along with Beizel.
The last comic stated that a all black Yinglet has sired Feena’s eggs, and now we see a all black Yinglet saying he has been busy. Heh. Yeah he’s been busy all right @ <3 !!
I thought of that, too. ^_^
It’s Feeeena. Don’t forget the four A’s.
It was spoken with 4 “A”s but with yinglet’s speech impediments versus a human’s, Can’t really say she would actually spell it with 4 letter a’s. Do yinglets spell words without the “TH” in writing? I’d think not. Certainly Cass don’t yet.

Yeah, that guy with the plague in the eastern district is a goner for sure
Wait what?
i just want kass to get pregnant already
Think Kass will lay unfertilized eggs first. Oviparous critters tend to be forced into laying fertilized or not on a fairly regular basis.
how u get pargnnt
They’re Beizel and some guy,
Beizel and some guy,
One is a yinglet,
But each one’s a spy,
For cloak and dagger work,
They’ll never, ever shirk.
They’re Beizel, they’re Beizel and some guy guy guy guy guy!
Spies!
:3
That yinglet is a spy!
Nice! You paraphrased a song that I don’t even remember lyrics to (not even in my native language). The last time I heard it, was around 15-20 years ago, but my brain immediately started a melody in my head when I finished reading. That’s a good job. Cheers!
Thank you, Ivoo.
I’d buy that for a dollar.
>: D
What do you want to do tonight, Beizel?
The same thing we do every night. Try not to let anyone take over the world!
Excellent! I eagerly await the next installment!
Currently installing next page
Progress: 69%
Nice
Ninja Ying is to cool.
He a yingja
Yes! That!
Does anyone else find it kinda odd that the last few pages have been their own independent little stories? Like, each page they go to a different place with different characters. Perhaps Val is doing this as a sort of time skip while Elim is recovering?
This is more like showing how the news is spreading and how everyone is reacting to the stabbing. Once the news is done making the rounds we’ll probably see more characters acting on it rather than reacting to it, which is what we’re starting to see here.

I disagree. We havent really seen how Kass has been affected by the attack in the long term yet.
While Kass and his group remain the anchor of the story, each character and group have their own stories going on! : D
I’m not complaining. I just wish we had a bit of a story arc going on instead of jumping to a new group each page. I’m just eager to see what happens next
I think I love smart yinglets more than I love the idiotic ratbirds.
Think its called comedy. Sal Valia kind of likes a chuckle now and again. If you like your ratbird extra spicy, might read “Learn to live” on Deviant Art. Just follow the links on this page to the deviant art link, then to his favorites. There is another called Scav’s Glory, but the storyline has kind of lost me as being too out of tone to OOP’s.
Both have their place in the natural order
It’s it bad I really wanted these two to high five or shake hands. I love all positive Yinglet and human interaction
My greatest hope hope is when they find him, it’ll bd chained up in someone’s basement, covered in various bodily fluids.
I’m having a rough time in my Live right now and just discovered this comic a few days ago, but i have read to this point for the 3rd time already and the Story is hitting me on so many levels. You are doing such a Great Job and i want moar! I want it all 😀

your creatures are the cutest <3
It may only be in a small way, or maybe a big way, but meeting the yinglets will enrich your life in some way.
Here’s hoping “keep it contained” isn’t a euphemism for “murder the witnesses”.
yinglet spies have stolen my attention.
Oh, hey… nice job on the torch flames, by the way! Nice touch!
