OOTS #264

More cryptograms!

A short and sweet one. It should be pretty easy to work out the dialogue from the context of the comic.

Panel 1: Aqmd. Rmtdwx!
From context, it's pretty obvious that the rogue just rolled successfully for a 'Listen' check. So that's a likely candidate for the 6-letter word.

Panel 2: Fqgj mx dow gwrrt! Fqgj! FQGJ!
The key word here is 'gwrrt'. Double letters are a big clue. In the context of this comic, a five-letter word with double letters that's plastered over almost every panel: 'cells'.

And with these two clues, the rest of the puzzle is quickly solved.

Panel 1: Wait. Listen!

Panel 2: Back in the cells! Back! BACK!
