Description
Thank you Wikipedia article on titles and peerage.Marquis (let alone King) PWNS Vicomte.
("Lady" is a bit vague, and Knight is actually below Vicomte... still.)
(The Marquis' parting shot is basiaclly Irony Overload, since he "named himself for a lie in a fairytale..." )
Just a wee little bit of fop-bashing, sort of... Raoul has 21stCentury Fail. That's OK, Chris will give him an earful. Also, this strip had some of my favourite Jareth shots (barring "You snuggled"), what with that "puff of irritation and glitter" bit and the final panel.

I think we all like it when Sarah calls Jareth "sire"...
Also, nice! You got all the titles right on point, there really IS an art to that.

I did some wiki research.

Oops! In retrospect, that totally makes sense.

Love Jareth's little magical outfit change, and his teasing of Sarah -- it's gonna happen eventually, it's inevitable

AWWWW it's the first time Jareth poofed himself a mood outfit!

Technically I outrank most people in terms of titles, since there's no rules against making up my own.
Well there are, but as long as I don't claim they're official they hold up.
I'm a little peeved I had to surrender "Lord of the Dance," but fair is fair.

You can't really blame Raoul. They kind of ARE a clan of hobo crazies and punks.
Mostly Jareth.

I like how Jareth growls and Sarah simply says okay, she's got it. Sarah is made for royalty, she has it down pat. Goblin Queens, they can handle the political niceties.

I saw this and immediately got this fantasy of OG walking in to ask Jareth something and then seeing Raoul and just freezing up, having the whole room stare at him, and Jareth go "Awkward!" It's in and now it won't leave...

Is this the first weird proposal of the comic?! Yay!

As this page was loading, all I saw was Jareths ass. Well done.

Not only are your drawings absolutely amazing, but you are showing two of some of my favorite things! Neverwhere and Labyrinth!!! You rock!! I love your stuff!

"...future queen of the goblins" in the final panel... lol ear to ear grin

Thanks for saving Jareth's ass... again, Sarah! And the Marquis's lines about Jareth's wardrobe...

Jareth's face in panel 8 was all I needed. Thank you.

ASDFGHJKL! Why does Jareth have to look so cute?! ALWAYS. No matte what his expression, he's always cute or sexy. *sigh* Pardon me while I sit over here and betray Erik via an onslaught of Jareth-filled thoughts...

Hehehe, I love the 'poof' of Jareth's outfit change. I have the feeling it wasn't just mood. Probably wanted to show off those darker, and fancier clothes. With a cloak. Cloak's are always good for effects. (And now, the voice of Edna Mode and "No capes!" is running through my head...)
I like Sarah's blush on that last panel ^///^

After finally getting around to watching Neverwhere, I can truly appreciate the humor in this page...And I would honestly love to see Raoul in London Below for even just a few minutes. His literary makeup would probably just implode upon itself ^.^

His outfits frequently change to reflect his mood - in this case, all pissed off and kingin' in Raoul's ignorant face.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Heh, Raoul should never judge a book by it's cover. Ya never know what that tattered old jacket is hiding underneath. (and yes i meant that as both a quip and an innuendo)

"You forgot to introduce yourself as future Queen of the Goblins." Hell yeah.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I do believe referring to her as a commoner incured Sarah's wrath in this instance....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I should think so.

I love it when stuck up people get put in their place!

Ah! Neverwhere characters! Others know they exist!

Sarah sure knows how to be diplomatic when she wants to be. Underneath all that anger an' denial is a devious an' crafty mind...
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
That last panel once again was pure win. "But you forgot to introduce yourself as Future Queen of the Goblins".
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Don't deny you're future Queendom Sarah, it's gonna happen...

This comic is made of win. My flatmate (roommate's the term here, but we don't technically share a room) probably thinks I'm out of my mind because I just keep LOL'ing. And I LOVE that you use Gaiman & Pratchett as well. And Norrington. Best of all the fandoms. The way you have Door and Richard is basically how I pictured them, too. Anyway, I could go on...but I'll stop the worshipping here. xD
