Nate’s letting him know that so far he’s just playing around.
“Lay off, or I’ll open you up like the fridge at midnight.”

Well, at least we now know the name of the green pirate fighting Nate: ‘Will’

DigitalFrog- Nate said “Well”. Ah, rereading it, I gotcha. The little mouse. Sorry about that.

Yeah, I had to re-read it a second time too, after DigitalFrogs remark! Clever, DF!

DF & Drystyha, “at will” is a phrase used to mean “whenever one feels like it” “when one gets the urge” etc.; so we still don’t know the pirate’s name. Like you Drystyha, I too couldn’t stop laughing my head off - this was too funny. Keep it up Chip, you are doing a great job with the mice!!

lesleynmoore, yes, I know what “at will” means. But think about it again, DigitalFrog made a pretty good funny! What if that pirates name WAS William, “Fire at Will!” I just love this strip! It’s the only one of the oh, 50 or so I read, that ALWAYS makes me laugh, and at the very least, smile! Yes, Chip, you rock!

Drystyha: I must agree that it can go both ways, so DF was pretty quick on the uptake of the name being “Will”. Thanks P.S. I love this comic too!!
