Grrl Power #930 - Emergency escape lizard

Whoops! Forgot what day of the week it was. :/
In my excuse, 1) that's only the second or maybe third time I've ever done that. Not the worst track record over the ten plus year run so far. If you guys knew me in person, you'd probably think I'd do that once or twice a month. 2) There was a crazy rainstorm that came through north Dallas last night with tornado sirens blaring and weather warnings on our phones telling us to seek shelter immediately, imminent danger, etc, so I took the extreme measure of shutting my computer down even though it's hooked to a UPS. Once that happened, my whole evening was thrown into disarray. We didn't even lose power or anything. Oh well, better safe than sorry. On to the comic.
So, is this murder? No. I mean, on Earth, a case could be made, but our legal system isn't geared to handle corporally independent consciousnesses. In fact, throughout the galaxy, it's known that those flame head demon-adjacent things (I should really name her race) have kind of disposable bodies. But since they're on Earth, there's a chance that Umbrivion Nava here can get away with this and not even be on the hook to buy her a new body. So I guess this was a pretty good vacation for him, anyway.

Well that's sufficiently creepy lol

Sean O'Connell
2021-03-28 22:04:44 +0000 UTCProbably not in the way he had in mind, either.

2021-03-26 10:08:14 +0000 UTCNot cannibalism since they're of different species. Not necessarily even murder, since the demon-lady is clearly still around. Taking her body away from her is not much worse than disarming a gunman.

2021-03-26 10:07:35 +0000 UTCWell, THEY sure got intimate FAST, didn't they?!

2021-03-26 00:04:28 +0000 UTCThat is easily one of the most fucked up ways to die I have yet to see
Jack Ponder
2021-03-25 20:11:04 +0000 UTCYeah, that seems like some sort of arrestable offence. Attempted murder, possibly attempted cannabilism since he's trying to eat an obviously intelligent being. In my way of thinking, this shouldn't be let slide.

2021-03-25 19:44:15 +0000 UTCSleeve death vs. real death. Still considered a type of violent assault.

2021-03-25 18:32:25 +0000 UTCImagine what the internet will do with the bystander video. Sparkly Cthulhu tourist eats demon, which anoints space lizard King before it dies...

2021-03-25 18:03:35 +0000 UTCFor all we know he's just storing her away so she could be handed over to the authorities. And obviously she'd be throwing herself over to Garamm to avoid being captured as much as she would to avoid being eaten.
Paul Rendell
2021-03-25 17:00:32 +0000 UTCIt would at least be attempted murder and battery.
Jacob Barboza
2021-03-25 16:33:34 +0000 UTCIt appears Lasha's body was an empty shell, allowing Lasha to fully control it. Obviously, she has to remind Garamm to run, rather than just controlling him. This makes his earlier proposition kind of... interesting. Would the flame entity have gotten anything out of the relationship, or is her (its?) carrier body just a transport? We may never know.
Tom wilson
2021-03-25 16:29:33 +0000 UTCWhy am already I so invested in two characters who were just introduced? Poor Garamm seems totally lost now.
Leo Once3333
2021-03-25 15:46:26 +0000 UTCAnd if Garamm still has his consciousness, what if Lasha's old body still had its own consciousness? (Probably not, given the way her voice trailed off, but...)

2021-03-25 13:58:28 +0000 UTCWhen you get eaten out...but not in a good way.
Alysandir
2021-03-25 13:51:36 +0000 UTCPretty sure that was at least attempted murder given that she had to get her essence stone thingy out of there on her own and certainly destruction of very private property at best. As for corporeal independence, its wearing a people-suit, which certainly suggests it is intelligent enough to understand that what it did is decidedly wrong. Surely our resident space-mercs would put another of those frag-rounds into that thing on sight? Or something that'd do the equivalent to it.

2021-03-25 13:47:04 +0000 UTCOne would hope her race is in a nice financial relationship with someone who clones bodies.
Justaguy
2021-03-25 13:42:51 +0000 UTCI guess the flower pattern is too hard to do when the body is in so many pieces? It made me think it was a different alien at first with the fully red shirt.
Guillaume Ravoire
2021-03-25 13:28:09 +0000 UTCI think he would rather be inside her.
Guillaume Ravoire
2021-03-25 13:27:05 +0000 UTCCool, she can move from body to body. This may cause lizard-guy to change his mind in a hurry. I wonder how they'll find a new body for her to use, and if they'll want to. This may be a HEA for both of them. But I doubt it.
