*giggles* Scorpion certainly is very trying! I thoroughly enjoyed this, not just the tale itself but the fact that it was a story within a story and I love that kind of thing!

I like that kind of thing, too! I'm not even sure why I wrote it that way; I guess I felt like the comic needed a segue.

I always kinda liked the original folktale as it is...

And you went and made it all kinds of AWESOME and I seriously giggled a lot while reading this!

Hee, thanks! And yeah, it's one of my favorites. When I was in high school, I always wore a scorpion bracelet because of it.

Fabulous ending - I loved it!

Thank you!

At first it was just one of my favourite folktales (though I knew the fox version best). Adding on the last bits of text made it an even better entry.

Eat it, Rabbit. You smug prick.

Poor Rabbit! He can't help being a smug prick, it's in his nature.
