[Wolf329] Fanart - "Alex, what is a.. 'meme'?"

[Snoofman]

That’s just so Tempo, assuming the seductive posture. You have really improved.

Talon Best Girl!

I'm going with the context that she is well aware at this point that Loroi strongly resemble very attractive human females, and is willing to put that to her advantage.

(NSFW)Alex, on view screen: "Yes Admiral, I strongly believe allying with the Loroi Union is our best option in this war."(NSFW)

Talon Best Girl!

Without question.

[wolf329]

Don't think it would hurt to post this here while it's still in the SFW Zone.

[Urist]

I must say, it really is neat seeing how much your art has improved since your first loroi comic!

[Snoofman]

Love that mild bit of fourth wall-breaking in the first panel. Ah! Maybe it was the noilir that triggered it. Soothing for Loroi. Stimulating For humans!

Stimulating as in caffeine! And probably the first of a bit of unsubstantiated headcanon, but not the last.

Speaking of which, how would soldiers react to the sudden unexpected presence of the opposite sex? Even experienced ones? Maybe a little... day dreaming?(non-explicit but still probably NSFW)
A related albeit less explicit example, in this linked cartoon/panel I have Talon say, "[Stillstorm] lashed too tight." Because on Taben, being a water planet with a history of seafaring, lashing the rigging would almost certainly be a thing in their language, and have phrasing in Trade analogous to English.

Ooh, a new version! It's always neat for us non-artists to see multiple "in-progress" versions of a work like that. And it seems that (compared to the older version on Newgrounds) Cloud has morphed into... I think that's Antimony? Which, (ignoring that it's a daydream) would be 2 out of 3 of Tempest's listel tactical officers that Alex has traumatized opened their eyes to interesting possibilities! The question is: can he track down that third one for the full hat trick?

Yup, that's a good Taben saying! Err, 'sending,' I guess. Although maybe Alex should just hope that Stillstorm the knife-nut (per Arioch) doesn't have a collection of seafaring 'discipline enhancement tools' in her cabin. What would a loroi cat-o'-nine-tails look like, anyways?

Yep, with the view angle the way is, it made more sense. Fun fact: the shot was originally thumbnailed as Alex in a shoe storage closet...

But I had second thoughts regarding the age of a participant in that case, so I went with a safer and ultimately funnier option.

I'm more interested in what they'd call it. Something cephalopodal-form related is my guess. Neat thing is, it'll be almost exactly the same as ours: three plait rope unraveled twice gives you nine strands.

Bow chicka honk honk!

[wolf329]

Oh hey forgot to upload the second finished page here!

[Tamri]

Awesome!
Can't help but notice how much the artist's style has improved over the year

[wolf329]

150 pages of comics over the course of the last year and a half-ish... Still not as good as I'd like, but better than I was.

[wolf329]

And the next page super quick, but on schedule this time.

[Snoofman]

Haha! Dude that is hilarious! Nice to know hand gestures are a thing among Loroi!

[Urist]

Talon and Spiral are even /better/ in color!

More headcanon extrapolating convergent possibilities.

Thanks! Speaking of which, please let me know if any colors look weird. I've tried my best to eyedropper from appropriate places in the original comic, but the lighting in scenes can render them slightly off and I know my drawing monitor doesn't have the greatest saturation range.

Great job Wolf329 !

And thank you TCA citizen!

So, if I've got this right:

First, Alex unintentionally broadcasts the dream of his that starts (IIRC) with him encountering the two Tenoin pilots, alone, in their cockpit.

Then he's woken up, and without knowing that that dream was shared he shortly afterwards decides to move over to the cockpit... alone, with the two Tenoin.

...

You /know/ that Spiral was mentally celebrating at that. No wonder she seemed so surprised that he genuinely didn't remember anything from the dream!
