    Right

    The “planetary defense cannon” is scared of ghosts.

    Cthulhu makes his mommy check to see if Castela is hiding under his bed.

        She took out a TV at home, and if I recall correctly, during one “scary place” field trip with Shawna she turned a car into a flaming pile of scrap metal.

        What other sorts of major purchase or appliance might she demolish, if sufficiently startled? Maybe the refrigerator/freezer will make unfortunate “defrost cycle” noises at just the wrong moment, and will suddenly become a convection oven?

        She was on video chat with Shawna and Shawna was like “Who’s that behind you?!?” and she spun around and fired.

        As i recall. Katherine congratulated her on her gain in control – the wall was only scorched lightly … but made her pay part of the replacement out of her Etsy money, which she thought Katherine didn’t know about.

        Silly Stinkweed – moms know EVERYTHING.

        At least, everything you don’t really want them to.

        《🎶 Yer Mom threw a·way yer best porno mag》

        🤔 I can’t remember much of the song where I heard that line from 🤔 (or the name of that song 😖)

        Fight For Your Right
        Song by Beastie Boys

        Kick it
        You wake up late for school, man you don’t want to go
        You ask you mom, please? but she still says, no
        You missed two classes, and no homework
        But your teacher preaches class like you’re some kind of jerk
        You gotta fight for your right to party
        Your pops caught you smoking, and he says, “No way”
        That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
        Man, living at home is such a drag
        Now your mom threw away your best porno mag (bust it)
        You gotta fight for your right to party
        You gotta fight
        Don’t step out of this house if that’s the clothes you’re gonna wear
        I’ll kick you out of my home if you don’t cut that hair
        Your mom busted in and said, what’s that noise?
        Aw, mom you’re just jealous it’s the Beastie Boys
        You gotta fight for your right to party
        You gotta fight for your right to party
        Party
        Party

      Cthulhu makes his mom check for Katherine under his bed. He hangs out with Castela.

    Seriously digging Pickle’s punkish aesthetic here. I’ve always been a fan of the “I’m trying really hard to act like I don’t give a fuck” cloud. As that’s where I find myself.

    …Dear, you don’t have to be scared of spooks. You don’t need to be scared of =anything=. Elder Gods recoil at your glare. Things that would drive most other living beings insane run from you in abject terror.

    Please don’t smoke the fridge again. 🙂

    I find it odd that a little girl with the power to destroy planets would be afraid of anything that goes “bump” in the night.

      It’s not a bug, it’s a feature!

    She’s not afraid of the spooks. She’s afraid of herself if there was something. I mean if suddenly she had to react to.something that was really there she KNOWS she van destroy all the things…and everything the things are standing on, near, or adjacent to (in an astrological sense.) And THEN she’d have to deal with Katherine. That’s the real fear!

    @Fairportfan, “Silly Stinkweed – moms know EVERYTHING” is a long-established survival feature for both mother and child, and fortunately Kathrine is probably X3 redundant in that department.
    And think on this. Castela and Atsali are both adopted. What would the Mom Effect be like if it was her biological child involved?

        I still find it interesting that there are ALWAYS esactly three specular reflections in each of Katherine’s eyes, and Katherine is a chimera made up of six unborn souls…

    Castela. You live in a world where there are portals. Maybe your mom is over at Bryn’s but popped back to grab a few things. Maybe your sister Library-portaled home and doesn’t know you’re there because you’re upstairs being quiet as a mouse.

    These backgrounds are amazing.

    Y’know…Castela *is* sort of a failed experiment, a try at producing a bioweapon of great power. She might be seen as dangerous…and, maybe, someday somebody *might* come after her. So her fears do have a basis in reality.

    Nice cargo pants.
    Well done for correctly placing the leg pockets on the thighs. I’ve seen so many times drawings where the pockets were erroneously placed on the knees, or even the shins, in the past!

      They’ve got the more utilitarian look of the BDU variants favored for combat uniforms and SWAT teams 🤔

        Well, military working trousers are where cargo pants evolved from.
        I, personally, wouldn’t mind if someone evolved a variant from the trousers of a flight suit. Imagine how useful it’d be to not need to faff about getting your smart device out your pocket while sat down, because the leg pockets have windows!

    Well, going by the title alone it’s probably the world’s soon-to-be most scorched burglars ever…

    in this universe, ghosts are a very distinct possibility (takes a para to know a para…)
