I think that if the author were to try and expose Alice’s nudity, it would be a near certainty that she would reach up out of the comic and throttle him…
Likely in that order. Victorian clothing and all. Too bothersome to shuck all of it. It makes it simpler to arrange for business to be done and proceed.
Broken arm, 3 broken ribs, internal bleeding, and severe concussion.
OK, have some tea, then get back to work. Or since this is a “ship”, maybe I should say have some rum and then get back to work?
As to the next line in the comic, “well, if trolls are faeries, I have no choice. As for clapping my hands, only to clap them around one particular troll’s neck until no amount of any other sort of clapping will bring him back.”
Woo Hoo! New wallpaper!
Yesss! Steampunk!!!
Those vertical ladders… What a perfect way of indicating a slight re-direction!
To the charge of Steampunk, I plead No Contest. In my defense, Your Honor, I didn’t realize I was committing a fashion crime.
Why are there no messy bodies? Because a proper butler is always one step ahead.
Blood and guts aren’t really on the menu. Sex and nudity on the other hand…
Wait, what?! Did I miss something? Let me see that menu (peers down the menu)…
I’ll have the Lunch Combo B, please, hold the blood and guts.

Did you see the scandalous abmount of leg Alice is showing in Chapt 2 pg 48?! By the standards of the time, that should definitely count.

Yeah, well, you caught me. In truth, there’s no blood, guts, sex, or nudity. There is, however, the occasional use of a mild expletive.
Ah, man. Now I’ll never know if the the underground people are oviparous or viviparous. (;_;)
The answer has already been hinted at in the Prologue… but I’m not at liberty to say more.
Good Show! Carry on, then! Never mind about that broken arm, get back to work!

Stiff upper lip and all that.
In fairness, Philo is quite nice. Any other captain would likely tell him to get back to work rather than let him “carry on” at rest where he is.
Now we know what you did during that 6 month hiatus – it took the entire time to draw that interior ship schematic!
A REAL ship schematic would have taken 6 months. This one just took an unreasonably long time.
As to the next line in the comic, “well, if trolls are faeries, I have no choice. As for clapping my hands, only to clap them around one particular troll’s neck until no amount of any other sort of clapping will bring him back.”
Clearly they malfunction caused the entire drill to turn around and drill back up to England
