Re: Page 153: You've got Mail!
Will be one of those cryptic messages about "nothing is what it seems", "don´t trust anyone" or "your cellphone could be a Decepticon in disguise" which usually leaves the protagonist in full paranoid mode?

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)
We go for the single minded hypotheses because they're fun. And maybe someone goes for "fanservice" pictures.... Yes, we are all humans, and mostly male, because this in the interwebs, and someone formulated rule 34. Also, sexual humor is the lowest form of comedy (even lower than puns) and we're a...

Re: Page 151 Discussion: "We will wait, Outsider"
Alex made his opinions about Fireblade (and to a lesser extent, Beryl) pretty much clear - the less he sees of Fireblade, the better it is. Or so he thinks. I wouldn't put it past him that he keeps his ability to sense her under the wraps until someone else notices something, just because he doesn'...

Re: Page 148 - responsible radio silence
Maybe I'm overthinking the page, but is Beryl truly that adorable, or is she deliberately using mannerism that a human male would find "cute"? If it is the second option, how can she know how to "act" in such a way?

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)
Jokes besides I can understand Beryl´s frustration. She is the closest thing to a xenobiologist around, and Alex is the representative of a newly discovered sapient race which looks too remarkably Loroi to be a coincidence. He is a puzzle begging to be solved, and the other members of the crew insis...

Re: Pages 146, 147: You are officially my Hero
I wonder how many of Beryl´s mannerisms, specially smiles, are deliberate. Considering Loroi seems to favor sanzai over facial expression and the other races may have another sets of non verbal signals... is she actually picking up from Alex´s own mien?

As a human, Jardin consumes more oxygen and nutrients than Loroi, right?

Re: What does YOUR Name Mean?
My first surname could either mean barrier or fence.
The second one references Spanish landowner in colonized America.

Re: Pages 144, 145: Conserve Energy
I thought that the cause for Fireblade's animosity towards Alex was simple; before he arrived she had the biggest foot size on Tempest. No. The entire fleet! Now there's this null freak just swaggering all over her turf, seemingly incapable of shutting it's annoying mouth for more than 5 seconds. T...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Do loroi feel "Uncanny valley" effect when they see humans? Don't know about Loroi, but once one of russian readers said, that blue skinned Loroi looks for him like some kind of undead zombi. But it's rare case. The lack of facial expression or verbal communication of most Loroi certainly don't help.

Re: Page 142-143: Tsk, here's mommy
I think paranoia may become their greatest adversary: the Loroi are trapped in a close space inside a ship playing dead, forced to wait and hope the Umiak don't find them before their allies, and in the company of a weird almost Loroi-looking alien immune to sanzai and for what they know could still...

Does Tempo's gesture (placing her right palm over her chest) have any meaning, or is a personal tic?

Re: Page 134: For Science!
For all his competence, Jardin seems like a leaf trapped in a category 5 hurricane. While the story is about him, I wonder how does Arioch plan to make Alex relevant in the Loroi-Shell conflict without turning him in Commander Shepard. I mean, he is alone, trapped without resources, allies and barel...

Re: Page 134: For Science!
Speaking of Fireblade, would it not be interesting if it is SHE who are the Outsider rather then Alex (or maybe they both are). In any case there is SOMETHING about her that a bit odd. Maybe we are totally wrong to believe her to be a powerful Teidar but she may be something way more then that but ...
