Probably nothing. Earth is in the Bubkiss Sector, Idaho Quadrant. Way out in the space sticks.

You know, I'm beginning to wonder if one of her redacted qualities on her GURPS sheet isn't 'Possessive'. It'd be consistent with her depiction so far.

On the contrary, if that was a natural occurring trait, there'd be a strong sense of competitiveness for the limited males available. There's at least one female for every human male, but female Loroi have to stand out to propagate.

I think chess and something like that would be what Beryl herself might suggest. Or Tempo. To gauge his mental capabilities, strategic thinking and his approach to difficult situations. With Talon, she or rather Alex himself would come up with an easygoing game of chance. I just imagine it: Alex: "...

Arioch DID mention that loroi!Chess would make an appearance soon.

Arioch wrote: It's a rare ability, but in terms of "sneaky and disturbing things that Mizol do with their telepathy which distress other Loroi", it's low on the list.

Yeah, those redacted marks on her character sheet provoke any number of questions.

I love how nonplussed and derpfaced Talon looks in the last panel.

Or possibly she's hearing the thousand generations of nerdy, bookish, introverted Listel behind her screaming at her for missing her opportunity to partake in the Humanity Male Groping Greeting Practise.

It could also be that he's a first-contact alien and whoever does the important work of establishing trust/communications/basic knowledge and so forth with him will have earned a lot of brownie-points or prestige in whatever passes the military hierarchy, either for beryl personally or for her cast...

What I think happened so far: Beryl having been raised either by Tempo or Fireblade ... and rushes to the cockpit to find Talon and Alex shaking hands while Talon gloating how she made a close friend of the alien and how she learned something Beryl didn't know about him. Aha, so this is primarily a...

https://i.imgur.com/hUNAo.jpg Personally, I don't really like the idea of Outsider having too much emphasis on romance or - goddess forbid it - romcom elements. But then again... read my signature. :P Space Harem adventure ahoy! Barring that, Space Opera. Either way, Kirk Doctrine is in full effect.

Beryl pretty clearly established 'first dibs', even if the pilots were technically the first one's to spot the male. And the first time, LITERALLY the first time she lets him out of her sight, she returns to find some lecherous PILOT grinding her gropers on Alex in the middle of the aisle. That's li...

Well, I'm reading the wrong comic for instant gratification, aren't I?

Alright writer boy. The stars just aligned again in living memory, make with the feels fiction.

Our LORD ARIOCH has returned! Kill the heretic!

I wonder what they used as a betting currency.

Well, see you guys in 14 months for page 114.

Oh come on!

Yeah, this is why we have necroposting rules. I saw the thread had been updated by the writer, and ...nope, someone asking the obvious.

Outstanding. Cheers, Shadow. Looking forward to anything else you might right in the future.

Back in the races yet? You can't just write like a machine for weeks and then cut us off. It could be years before Page 113, I need my psychic space blueberry murder elf stories!

The Umiak dodge it by going into comas before jumping. Arioch mentioned that it was a limiting factor in how close they could jump to a target, because jumping too close would have half their crew barely awake and function when battle was joined. And it has to be more than psionics, because the othe...
