[Giant is about to kill Hogarth.] No, wait! It’s me. Hogarth, remember? It’s bad to kill. Guns kill, and you don’t have to be a gun. You are what you choose to be. You choose. [closes his eyes, bracing for impact] Choose. 8])
Quick comment RE: Safe landings. Spiderman: Gwen Stacy. Safe landings are not as easy as they look (unless you can negate momentum, then all bets are off!)
You know… anyone else wondering now how many pairs of sneakers she goes through? I can only imagine now that she must burn through them pretty quick running around like that.
Yeah, nowadays, once she finds a pair she likes, they just order a few cases in that size and style, one case per color she’s interested in. Saves on shipping in the long run to just get a bunch in one go.
INTERESTING! She’s relaxed enough, around Luci, about who and what she is, that she actually forgets! I do believe we have discovered Miss Luci’s talent, and it is rare, and w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l!
Now all cas needs is someone to make footwear as durable as monica and atsali’s bras. I’m sure that MIB has reallocated some of their clothing funds to keeping cas stocked in shoes though.
Where would one comment on website issues? If you increase the font size in your web browser (hey I’m getting older) the majority of the website, including the comic, gets shoved into a tiny column on the left size of the browser window.
Not sure that’s anything I’d be able to adjust as my site uses WordPress, you might want to take a look on the WordPress help page, but I’ll check with my contacts as well.
(Confirmed) Repeatable w/ Firefox by selecting ‘Zoom Text Only’ from the View pull-down menu, then pressing Cntl-Shift-+ . The main comic entry goes catiwampus over to the right-hand edge, greatly reduced in size.
Its not that I was asked, but I’ll continue to look into an easy work around…
I get the same results with “zoom text only” but if I leave that unchecked, everything just gets bigger, which is what I wanted. The comic is already large enough, but zooming does make it easier to read the comments.
Forgot who you were with, didn’t you, Castela?
Oh, I’m sure Luci could do that…But only once. However, that’s precisely why Luci needs to avoid doing it even once.
well maybe she should join the “crack Suicide Squad” first, i hear they have a lot of openings.
Probably the first time Stela brought anyone to her playtarium
Anyone without the ability to control their descent, anyway.
Wasn’t Bud along for a visit once (sorry, haven’t got time for an archive trawl right now)?
Pretty sure she brought Daylla once, too.
Castella has not learned that Everything is airdrop able ONCE.
EeeeYUP!
I think Luci is one of the few stock-standard humans in Wapsi, so maybe her going “splat” rather than the ground going “thud” if she follows Cas…
Just you wait. Most humans in Wapsi who get a decent amount of screen time wind up either becoming a para or finding out they’ve been one all along.
It even happened to a spider, after all.
To err is parahuman, too…
Now that is a phrase to remember.
Well, Pickle COULD carve out a set of steps for Luci. It MIGHT not even freak her out, given her response to Phix.
Yeah, was just thinking that: demonstration and assistance all in one 😀
Cass is to shoes and boots what Monica and Atsali together are to bras. Not that she has big feet, but the stresses and strains.
Her boots remember that, wherever they rest.
Agreed
Just jump, Luci. Castela will catch you!
Yeah, I’m pretty sure Tumbelyweed could vine-out and provide her a safe landing…
If you were falling, would you want to be caught by a thorn bush?

That wasn’t a problem with the landing, butt the catching
Isn’t that adorable? Castela wears polka dotted underpants.
I _think_ those are Valentines…
No, I’m pretty sure they’re polka dots.
No way!, Look at the ones over the ‘T’ & the ‘H’…
Oh, yeah, with a magnifying glass. The old eyes are going.
Oh, I don’t know; Luci can hit pretty damn hard if she wants to…
Heck, her mere *hug* was enough to break Phix.
Punching a human and impacting on stone from great height are two wildly different things.
(Yes, I know you were joking)

I was thinking: Spring Steel insole, Kevlar and Ballistic Nylon Upper, etc.
Maybe the Ninja Bustiere folks have the Shoemaker’s Elves on the payroll…

A good lesson to remind Cass, that she has to live amoung gossimer egg shells called “humans”.

Using Firefox, the “Zoom Page WE” add-on works as advertised, and does not produce this effect.
This add-on is highly configurable, but I am using the default settings.
I just ctrl-plus the whole thing. Everything gets bigger.
looks fine to me. Ubuntu, Firefox. Ver 57. Flash enabled…

How tall is Cas these days, anyway? She’s gotta be pushing six feet by now. Someone tell her to lay off the gibberellic acid?
I think it’s just that Luci it’s a short who’s done growing…
I am pretty sure plasma cut steps will be hot enough to make sneakers stick to them
Just ask those guys in Hawaii…
Way to stick the landing, Cas!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
