          As well as android-kind, zombie-kind, sapient animal-kind, and anyone else I missed

            You forgot the sapient non-animals who are not also androids. The Fridge and Sweetdaddy come to mind. Also M’me Souhaits, although after Unity’s tampering, she might qualify as a zombie now.

            Re: awgiedawgie. Since it looks like we’re going on a visit to Kansas, and since that’s where Tip left the seed pod of Mme. des Souhaits, maybe we’ll meet up with the new her. (And maybe Kay the Dragon and Mr. Berk and the Bigfoots (Bigfeet?))

    Looks a lot like the Chanel suit Jackie Kennedy wore in Dallas on that fateful day.

      One has to wonder how Tip affords all of these outfits on a civil servant’s salary.

        Mojo based vintage and second hand shopping skills. The second something fashionable appears at goodwill, Tip is transported there.

        Note that he couldn’t afford the Mainbocher, when someone who knew what they had was selling it.

    Pavanne approaches, and Gavotte hovers nearby, literally. I’m curious to find out if Tigerlily really is from Lovetron, or if she is indeed delusional (which she claims to be!) Perhaps Nick is the literal vehicle that brings them together.

    By the way, since their faction of Skin-Horse went rogue, just how are they swamped and really busy? Mme. des Souhaits is no longer with them…and the Greater H. T. isn’t, either…

      Going rogue doesn’t mean they don’t have paperwork to complete in triplicate. Well, it doesn’t if Sweetheart has anything to say about it, anyway.

    How is it possible that Tip is packed and ready for a mission in less than three seconds?

      “In the twinkling of an eye” doubtless comes into play… 😉

      We’re talking about a crossdressing ex-military narcissist who can teleport people through both space AND TIME using the power of his libido / animal magnetism, and you’re questioning how he is ready to pack a suitcase so quickly?

        Tip probably keeps an overnight bag in Hammerspace next to Alice. 😉

        Tip is not known for his high-speed packing skills.

    And does Annex One have eaves?

      Apparently yes… in the hall.

      To my eye, eaves are common in Brutalist architecture.

    Is Nick somehow aware of Aimee’s predicament or is this a coincidence?

    • awgiedawgie
      December 25, 2020, 6:36 pm | # | Reply

      My guess is that Nick has been contacted by Baron Mistycorn. He’s a robot, so he could well have a built-in comms device of some kind. It would have to have been retrofitted rather recently to be more sophisticated than a two-way radio. But then even a two-way radio would be capable of contacting Nick if they’re close enough.

        That makes sense. They are old friends.

        Would Aimee have inherited her trust in Baron Mistycorn from Nick?

    I have to congratulate Shaenon on how perfectly everyone’s expressions are rendered in the last panel!

    That is an extremely Doonesbury expression on Tip.

      That is classic Shaenon. See my avatar as a reference.
