Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for October 24, 2024

Never tackle “asundering” horde.

Actually, sudden moves are more likely to attract attention AND to make noise AND to get one’s throat cut.

That steenky Tomos. Tarzan make Tomotos soup outta him.

Snitches get stitches. I guess Tarzan is too distinctive to not be recognizable. And I hope they tanked up on breakfast. Before tanking Tomos.

Tarzan’s not a sword guy, pike and knife will do fine.

Metallurgy, swords, armor, spear points, but no bow-and-arrows. Sorry to keep harping on the incongruity but it jars me whenever there’s a scene with weapons. It would be like having a language with no word for water.

I don’t believe I’ve seen a cresset in a long time; sputtering or otherwise.

Tomos can sound the alarm and release the Lions into the streets to hunt them down. These ideas just come to me.

You’ll keep your yap shut if you know what’s good for you Tomos .

If that wall-cresset would have just stopped its sputtering, they would have been fine.

Tomos —did you see what happened to your old friend Erot? Just close your eyes and say “I know NOTHING!”
