Where’s Brelvis? oh… TMI!: A readers had wondered where Brelvis got to, since he wasn’t seen helping with the recovery of Kaycee and Charisma from the downed Euro-Jet… well, when you’ve gotta go, you’ve gotta go.
Moscow: As many of you might remember, Olga – despite being “17” – was indeed present for the destruction of Moscow in 1972 by the Q’Arth demons. Although she was known as Gola and was physically over a decade older than she is now – check out the sequence starting at page 4.04. If none of that makes sense, you’ll have to (re)read Redux… and wow, did she just slip up on the whole keeping Gola/Olga a secret! A “good thing” everyone’s about to die… I suppose?
Patrons: Over on Patreon page 131 is now up – page 132 soon…
Next update: Thursday-ish(?) October 21, 2021: Bugs incoming!
The slip probably isnt too bad though. It looks like Olaf is about to get rarged again, permanently. With a couple more wounds for Kaycee and a close call for Paz. Getting close now, do or die time.
My take on panel 3:
Olaf: That predated your birthing.
Olga: I have seen it in the minds of some that were there. It is still in the front of their minds sometimes. It even breaks through my blocks sometimes.
Olaf: It is understandable that such a traumatic event would come back unbidden to the minds of those that experienced it.
Given the exact words and phrasing Olga happened to use here, I think “it’s a saying” was a better explanation this time, but in general I think your take is a really good way for Olga to get out of a slip-up.
Even better broken into two sentences that would infer reference her connection to witnessing IJL members that she has lived with.
“I am a telepath, or was one. I have seen and felt the shared memories of the last day of Magellan in this world, from multiple perspectives.”
Good point, she has plenty of ways to obfuscate… and she still chose the least convincing one!!
Yeah, she rolled a ‘1’ on that (well, since it might still be believed, maybe a ‘2’). Since Gola was there for Olga in her earlier years (see what I did there? š), it’s not surprising that Olga would have scattered bits of Olga’s memories.
Can Olaf still do his slice & dice trick now that he is only a head? That might be handy.
You probably get sick of these, xmung, but there’s no ‘i’ in “olfactory”.
ha, a reader pointed that out on Patreon and I said Iād fix it before it got to the main site, then I utterly forgot. Thanks for the reminder. Always happy to have my typos corrected. š
Once I get my finances in order, I should definitely Patreon. Just started a new job, so might take me a few months.
If I ever win the lottery, I know a certain webcomic artist who deserves a portion of the winnings.
If I ever win the lottery, so do I! š
Use the giant target on Olaf’s head to draw them off!
