She never reported the scream, freaked out and unsure if she was just going crazy.

OOPs now has a Russian translation which updates shortly after the English pages are posted!
Now also in French:
And Ukranian:
I have one thing to say and that’s: Damn it! Yannit! I love you!
Well, we know why Yannit isn’t seen using the Elevator now. It also sounds like Beizel found out how a Indrel responds to de smell of unwashed sexually active Yinglet in a enclosed space.
BUG IN THE VENTS! BUG IN THE VENTS!
They’re in the goddamn walls! Game over, man! Game over!
Zhis isn’t happenings. Zhis ISN’T HAPPENINGS! EEEEEEEE!
Do you think Beizel has ever met one of Yannit’s kind before? Imagine a giant bug popping up on you while you’re strolling through the halls at work…
Beizel is smoozh. Beizel is intellegent. Beizel is a good top. But for all de zhings Beizel is, he is still a Yinglet. And is therefore ridiclous to an extent.
But seeing zhat it’s a dark tunnel, and Yannit is blocking de light from behind her, from Beizel’s POV could he even identify Yannit as being a Indrel? Yannit can recognize a Yinglet by smell having known Sir Lady Kass already. But for Beizel? Zhink he gets full license to freak out, and perhaps zhis is Karma for his showing Lopin a good time in someone’s closet instead of using Lopin’s private quarters.
Yinglet or not, I think most people would react the same if this happened to them…
Didn’t Yannit try to eat Lopin before she was told that Yinglets are not food? I feel that Beizel has an innate fear of them because “Big bug looking like this -> RUN!!!” Similarly how we fear eyes reflecting from the dark. -> “Likely a large cat that wants to eat me or a canine. Time to GTFO”
Beizel’s not gonna forget this anytime soon. XD
No.
Not here.
Not at home.
Not in his (recently *much* more prominent) nightmares…
Yeah he’s probably not used to anybody being able to sneak up on him. Yannit wasn’t trying, but she “got” him anyway. Being an expert information gatherer, I assume he’s heard of the Indrel, but this could be the first time he’s ever met one face to face. Fun page. 🙂
I can see Yannit getting confused by Beizel’s reaction and making an out-of-context remark about that at some point in the future that most people will have their head scratching. Maybe the next time someone freaks out:
“Haaaaa. Hee must likes to play hide and seak in roof-holes toooo.”
Noying does it betters
Makes me feel sads fors za rest
Noying is… halfs as sneakies as yous
Beizel… hows you just zhats goods?
Mean hoomanz stoles my clams-rake
Beizel gots me new clams-rake
Mades me feels… all happies insides
But likes Ze Matriarch who yells at mes
Za Sneakie who snucks fors me
I listens… when he says runs an hides
An… noying does it betters
Alzhough some ofs za guards reallies try
Noying just… isn’t as goods as yous
Sometimes it makes za poor guards cry
Za ways ya sneakies arounds
An za ways ya shushez me downs
It can reallies… gives a clams-digger a fright
But likes za stars aboves us
You sneakies amongs us
Alls to keeps Za Enclave safe tonight
An… noying does it betters
Makes me feel sads fors za rest
Noying is… halfs as sneakies as yous
Beizel… where’d my clams-sack go?
An zhats it fors za… ‘sings bout Beizel’ show!
(Please don’ts hurts me Beizel…)
Cute bug jumpscare.
Woman: “Must’ve been the wind…”
Beizel
That was meant to have italics tags around it. Silly comment.
I see in the first panel that Beizel’s feet are tucked way up forward by his chest when he crawls. That must be a really difficult way to move around: toes by your shoulders, ankles dragging on the ground by your hips, only room underneath you for tiny little steps, with your center of gravity probably way behind your feet, so you’ve got to use your tail for support to keep from pitching backwards onto your rear. With all the sneaking around he does in places like this, how does Beizel not get callouses all over, like old dogs have on their elbows?
I have to say, ever since I found this web comic, I have loved it. The dialogue feels natural (as a struggling
amateur writer, I am jealous). The creatures are fascinating. I especially adore Yannit and the Baxxid characters.
I hope you continue to enjoy your work so we may enjoy it too. Your hard work is appreciated.
Also: Yannit is best.
Sometimes there are things even Beizel doesn’t see coming.
