page 1406 – There, Did I Leave Anything Out?
I’m not gonna say this page ONLY exists because of conversations in the comment section reminding me of details that hadn’t been fleshed out properly in-comic… but it sure helped.
Also, I just want to point out that, in both my rough draft AND the final inked version, Mariska’s “off into nowhere” gaze in the bottom panel accidentally turned into her looking straight ahead at the viewer without my meaning for that to happen. Don’t you look at me like that, lady. I’m he one writing this thing, you just play your part as written, thank you very much.
Also also, yeah. I’m running behind today. I’ve pretty much shaken off whatever I came down with earlier, but I’m still trying to get back on schedule in general. I’ve been up working on this all night, which means the new TWC Voting Incentive isn’t ready yet. It SHOULD be up later today, hopefully before the afternoon, so check back here later. Sorry!
EDIT: Yay! I managed to get the Voting Incentive done before crawling off to take a nap!
I still say Avatar Toss is the fastest method. Stilez tosses Avatar at the cityship and she can shut down access from that side, lock all docking bays, etc.
Ideally, toss her into an open docking bay, but as long as Stiles hits the cityship at all, Avatar will just puncture the hull when she hits, so it should be fine.
The Avatar Toss would be doubly pointless. It would be pointless getting her there, because she wouldn’t be able to control the kids. It would also be pointless getting her off of The Exposition, as she’s the one distracting Stillez and Tax.
*tongue biting ACTIVATE*
She doesn’t need to control them, she needs to stop them from getting on the ship and leave them in the pod. Avatar knows easily how to shut the docking bays and disable all docking mechanisms.
Any shiny object or bouncing ball distracts Stilez. And Tax is smart enough to know when Stilez needs to be distracted. If nothing else, Ichabod can take over distraction duty temporarily, though he won’t like it.
Honestly, a ship made of food would likely be safer for everyone involved than the ship Tabitha arrived in. Even if she doesn’t fly at full-speed. That one looked nice, but caused devastation in it’s wake. This one will be gross on numerous levels, but that’ll be the worst of it.
Yeah, it’d be kinda funny if Tabitha tried to power up her ship to get over there, and the distortions kept pushing the other ship further away ever time it tries to move.
The distortions? I’d be more worried about the ship’s piloting systems actively moving the ship AWAY from Tabitha’s ship, due to the inherent danger of everything to do with it. Be it the obvious mad-science, or the distortions it produces.
