#rogio

Kargo's revival is old news in Home, but I still wanted to write about how much I see it as a writing cop-out. Also, the more you think about the revival, the less sense it actually makes.

After a bit of an intended hiatus, I’ve returned to posting. I’m still trying to figure out a posting schedule that works best for me. My time is currently split between writing for my gaming blog, streaming on Twitch, and a very tiring full-time job. That said, I’m thinking about updates here on Saturdays or Sundays with a minimum post being once a month. In the meantime, I am a bit more active…

Oh my gawd look at Evil Kargo McEvil attacking poow Wogipoo oh lawd he so baaaad and evuuul hublebugkrjej oh nooooo what ever will Roamiboy do wooooow Spicyyyy.

Jesus Christ I swear the next couple of pages will kill so many of my braincells I'll be about as intelligent as a dishwasher.

What Kique is doing here is trying to show Rogio as a poor broken individual who is riddled with guilt that goes with the fake "I deserve this" guilt tripping. Hey guys look! Kargo evil! Poor Rogipoo broken! He sad! Kargo bad!

But the thing is that Rogio really DOES deserve this. He backstabbed Kargo multiple times, he refused to help the rape victims when he had the chance, seduced his lover, caused the death of Fuss and Jonna because he's a selfish coward and stayed with and abusive rapist because "he was nice to me." Rogio deserves nothing more but this. He deserves to be dragged through the mud, he deserves to face the consequences of his evil actions and it's nice to see Kargo, who's been fucked over again and again by this diarrhea coloured bag of dicks to be the one who does it.

Just imagine what happens next. Ferah runs for help and brings half the tribe to save poow Wogipoo from evil Kargo's gaping jaws. The tribe tells Kargo to stop because you know, even tho Rogio does deserve this it's still an assault without trial. Roamer gives him one of those gross dog kisses and panders about how Kargo's baaaaad, that he's EVIL, that he forced him into all that sexy stuff they did even tho he was totally gine with it then. But instead of agreement and backup from the tribe, they stand there in silence.

Then Vigr, the impulsive voice of reason stands up and tells Roamer that yeah, what Kargo did was kind of uncalled for because Rogio didn't have a trial or something but he deserves this non the less cuz he's a shit person. Then all the others stand up.

Ronja tells him he has cheating on her with Ranach and wanted her dead out of the tribe because he was jealous of her.

Vandi, the grieving wife tells him how it's Rogio's fault her mate is dead, because Rogio was too cowardly to go and face Ranach.

Fremja joins them and says that Jonna's death is on his shoulders too and that even tho she was repeatedly raped and abused for years by Ranach and Ulfr she STILL went to face them.

And finally, Ferah. She steps forward and tells them that Rogio didn't help her and the other rape victims during the first rebellion because he liked to be treated nicely by Ranach and that he only left him because he turned his back on him. Also that Rogio seduced Roamer who was Kargo's love interest and finally steps up and defends her so called best friend.

Then, silence falls. Everyone knows Rogio is a shitbag at this point and now someone finally said it. Roamer of course rushes to his defence. He was abused! He didn't know what he was doing! Are you so sure Roamer? The tribe quickly reminds him that Rogio wasn't and that he was fine in his little privileged bubble. And if he oh so regrets his actions, why isn't he trying to better himself? Ever since he returned to the tribe all he did was cause the death of two dogs, slack around and butfuck Roamer. Just saying he regrets it isn't doing it. Rogio NEEDS to act better is he is to be forgiven.

Roamer loves Rogio of course so he would still violently defend him. And now the tension arises. Kargo is still told of for his attack because Rogio wasn't sentenced then and it still counts as an assault. Now what do they do with Rogio? Well for a start they take his rank. Roamer is angered by this, but hotheded Vigr reminds him that Rogio never embraced his rank, Roamer does his chores anyway and the one time the tribe needed him he stayed inside the walls like a little coward. The question of throwing him out rises, but for now he stays. His privileges are taken from him, he is to eat as the last while he awaits the tribes trial.

All of this would create some wonderful tension and conflict this comic so desperately needs. Roamer is angry and everyone because his poor Rogipoo did nothing wrong, the tribe is angry/frustrated at Roamer for not seeing his evil actions, Kargo is angry at Roamer and the tribe, because Roamer still defends him and the tribe didn't kick him out immediately. Ronja is left torn between doing what the tribe wants and what Roamer wants and suffers under the pressure.

I'd kill to see something like this. The wonderful discord between several sides in an already divided tribe. Then the issues about Ranach rise again and the food is running low oh lord I'd live to see this unfold.

Well at least it would be nice if this wasn't fucking Home written by Kique.

Instead what we'll get is Kargo being scolded for attacking poor Rogipoo. Everyone is gonna turn their back on him in favour of this oh so pure soul, Roamer will have a speech about how Kargo is rotten inside and that he's glad he left him, Ferah will join in about her runined "relationship" with Jarl Frodo and Kargo will either be kicked out or severely punished while Rogio will receive all the attention and will be told what a good humble dog he is, that his past doesn't define him, that he doesn't deserve this yada yada you know how it goes.

Someone: *has a better idea* Rogio:

IDK MAN ASK KIQUE THAT FJDKDKCG

Kargo can lift and kill a bear that is like 100-150 kilos and kill 10+ trained Meteor dogs during the rebellion but then Roamiboy has to protect his toxic husbando so OF COURSE he's gonna bitchslap Kargo, what were you thinking silly? That our previous protagonist won't be able to pass through difficult situations with ease? Pffff not in this comic my friendo.

"Nobody can stop him when he's in a rage like this." Okay Ferah hmmmm seems like one slap is enough tho. Fuck this comic and it's inconsistency.
