    I love how Sweetheart is just so matter-of-fact there. She just takes Unity’s antics in stride.

      Sweetheart knows her team.

      Sweetheart guarantees that, by the time they leave, the problem will be eradicated. She makes no promises beyond that.

        Specifically, she makes no promises – or guesses – what else will be eradicated. But yes, the problem will be dealt with.

        That might exist in this universe, if only due to a Madboy watching movies after too much coffee and sugar.

    Try not to violate anybody’s copyrights, Unity.

      Would it really surprise you to find out Bill Murray lived on St. Charlie?

        I figured St. Charlie was named after The Man Who Never Returned…

        I’d be more surprised if Bill Murray didn’t live on St. Charlie in this universe.

    If a foot-faced thing,
    Is wandering around,
    Who you gonna blame?
    Unity!
    Your creator’s voice,
    Says you will be found,
    Who’s gonna eat them?
    Unity!

    Who would have proton packs? Perhaps a former pop culture nerd turned mad scientist? (We can dream, can’t we?)

      Sounds like a natural fit for the Department of Irradiation!

    Now I’m wondering if she’s making a movie reference or if proton packs are as normal a part of this world’s background as bug bombs.

      I was thinking they must be a part of any super-prepper’s arms stash, right next to the anti-tank rockets, the .50cal sniper rifle, and the flamethrower.

        At least give all the proper names! the anti-tank rockets, the anti-flamethrower-soldier sniper rifle, the anti-anti-tank-soldier flamethrower, and ofcourse, teh antiflamethrower-and-sniper tank.

    I’m guessing that Remy’s and U.N.I.T.Y.’s ideas on settling spirits are going to diverge quite wildly.

      Well, they may have differed up until now, but Unity can be very persuasive, now that she has a whole body again.

        Of course we don’t know where Unity got her shirt, pants, and shoes.

          Like I said on Friday, I’m sure the Queen would gladly offer Unity some clothing.

          There may also have been some extra clothes on board the helicopter. Meat-Nick probably keeps at least a couple changes of clothes handy, now that he has someone to impress. And he and Unity aren’t terribly different in size.

          • Robert Nowall
            April 6, 2020, 11:54 pm | #

            She usually stands taller than meat-Nick, but, then, her body could have been tailored to fit the clothes.

            That’s why I said they’re not terribly different in size.

          The one place we know she didn’t get them is from Tip.

            Yeah, the look Unity is sporting now is more Nick than Tip.

    The kingdom’s restored with the zombie-green horde, there’s ghost busting.
    Elena is here and she lives without fear, there’s ghost busting.
    The monstrosity wandered somewhere out of reach,
    Now Unity’s whole, with two arms and legs each,
    She’s dragging poor Remy along on the beach, there’s ghost busting.

    A spirit voice said “I’m coming for you,” there’s ghost busting.
    And Bubbles or Sweetheart don’t know what to do, there’s ghost busting.
    The Habakkuk refugees fear the unknown,
    They feel they’re abandoned and left all alone,
    And Sweetheart thinks Unity’s hers all her own, there’s ghost busting.

    Dramatic appearances at the shore line, there’s ghost busting.
    There’s proton packs Unity thinks she can find, there’s ghost busting.
    The Skin-Horse group finds this so uncommonplace,
    There’s nothing about this in their database,
    And Leo may still be all over Nick’s face, there’s ghost busting.

    —from “Busted,” Harlan Howard. (You didn’t think I was gonna due the “Ghostbusters” song, did you?)
