Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
I do not think it is likely both Princesses survive to leave the island unless some external force (e.g., a leviathan) intervenes to stop their fight. And right now, I have to bet on Monahan winning; she seems to have the upper hand, and her body is healing while Clankrezia cannot.
In Albia's memory of Lucrezia the Queen Killer, we see her as largely clank / cyborg with only a little human left. In Agatha's vision of Lucrezia (which didn't look exactly like this one), she was entirely a clank. Is it possible that due to time travel shenanigans Lucrezia eventually has to become 100% clank because her body has aged past the point where even she can keep it running?
EDIT: NEW STRIP
Are they using Krosp as a weapon? Against giant winged rats? Gotta agree with His Majesty: Why?Last edited by Shining Wrath; 2022-06-22 at 08:00 AM.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
I am curious why Agatha is in this precarious position. She has both Zeetha and the Baron's favorite killer who could be outside in combat. I guess she is the only person who can fix the balloon with a wrench ...on the outside...in mid-flight.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
Rakethorn is outside as well, and he's the only other Spark with them at the moment (which is unusually low Spark density). That certainly suggests some sort of Sparky exterior requirements.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
There was also some speculation a few threads back about Violetta breaking through at some point. But I guess Agatha called on her earlier because she's known to have good minion skills, at least.
Edit: which begs the question, why does she need Krosp now and not Violetta? A tight space to get into? Or something to do with the balloon bees? I thought Krosp's "whyyyy?!" was more all-purpose whining, but the specifics might be interesting.Last edited by theangelJean; 2022-06-22 at 10:57 PM.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
Aside from tight spaces, there might be a simple case of that structure they are standing on not being able to hold more people and despite his eating habits Krosp is pretty light. This would also explain, why they do not have there anyone to fend off the flying rats.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
"Because they're mine!" might work on its own, but I don't see much hope for the other, let alone combining them.

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
"Rub them together, and aim!" might be succinct enough to be a title, but I don't want to nominate it. Not funny enough out of context.
Also, I count 5 Ka-booms, so Krosp is effectively reducing the number of flying rats.
Why are the rats even here? Shouldn't they be nibbling on tasty exposed wires of Clankrezia?This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
I think it's contingent on the level of mental conditioning they've been through, and how they're treated.
A well treated monster with loyalty ingrained is going to be a decent servant.
A poorly treated guard slime who's mainly designed to be hungry and angry is not a good servant.
It's like a dog, or any other animal really. Treat them well and try to understand them and most are going to be obediant and loyal, treat them badly or without regard to their natural instincts and they become obedient only due to fear, or actively hostile depending on the circumstances.
Monahan's rats, well they do seem to be friendly under the right circumstances, and are willing to sing along to Monahan's organ, so I'd guess they do actually like her even if giving them intricate orders isn't necessarily easy.Sanity is nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.

OK, two new monsters enter the fray. What are they, where did they come from, and will they interfere in the Princess throw-down?

The rides of the mutant fish people resembled corrupted whales, and didn't have arms, and didn't come up onto land.
Also, Bang may have just made a mistake - maybe not as big of a mistake as holding her position would have been, but they might be on the ground or close to it.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: Girl Genius XXXI: Let’s look at it from farther away!
Creatures mutated by the safe stuff != same creatures. I think these bad boys are cousins to the mutated fish landing whales. What was mutated to produce them, I do not know.
Whatever they are, they are more horrific than they appear, at least when viewed in the rear view mirror.This ... is my signature finishing move!
