Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Perhaps more to the point, why did he introduce himself by holding a gun to their heads, but has now put the gun away and everyone seems to be besties?

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
My guess is this creature is easily confused by comprehending time in the third dimension so its entirely possible they will have a confrontation but it didnt realize said confrontation takes place later and err, "jumped the gun" so to speak. Once it realized it wasnt time to fight yet it put the gun away.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
The problem with labeling any of Agatha's actions as foolish while she's doing it is that we don't know what she knows. Sometimes she IS screwing up, as with freeing the Muse of Time. Sometimes she's not, as when she triggered the early take-over of Paris by what's his name. Because she realized that the linchpin of his plan was a der Kestle AI, and that it would obey HER, not him. If the summons nets an eldritch abomination that rips the life out of every creature in the universe immediately upon arriving, that would constitute a boo-boo, yes indeed. If it shows up and calls her 'Mistress', that puts things in a different light.

When it revealed itself by calling her Mistress.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
ugh..i HATE time slip/skip/loop shenanigans
Ponies not only make ME want to be a better person than I was before they entered my life, they make me want to HELP OTHERS be better people too.
And that is a GOOD thing by any definition.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
I'm impressed that the Foglios managed to make even me, who's not in the story, feel very lost in time.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Well, hopefully here, like in the Red Dwarf clip, the characters, as audience proxy, get fed up quickly and effectively tell the authors to knock it off in short order.
Seriously though, this works in very small helpings. Too much, and you realize just where the fine line between surreal and nonsensical is.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
I wonder who they are sacrificing and I hope this time screw up does not last for long. I made it through BSI with no problem and I have to work at this.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
I was close, turns out time is screwed up here and its causing all sorts of issues with actions that need to be taken/were taken/are being taken out of order due to the creatures presence. I wonder if agatha will get information from this being she can work with to free mechanicsburg.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
Oy vey! I hope this timey-wimey confusion is brief. Trying to piece together what is going on is already giving me a headache.

Re: Girl Genius XXV: It needs work! BUT THE CONCEPT IS SOUND!
I'm still hoping this is brief, but I'm beginning to appreciate the non-sequitur approach to this timey-wimey stuff.
I bet the Foglio's had fun writing this. I wonder if they wrote out the narrative, dropped each scene into a hat, shook vigorously, and finally pulled them back out one by one to place them randomly.Last edited by xroads; 2019-03-06 at 12:33 PM.
