    Nick, you’re a sentient cyborg helicopter dating an anti-mad genius with a meat peripheral. What I’m saying is, you’re not one to talk.

      He still has the frame “I’m normal, it’s everyone else that’s weird. “

        They’re all weird. They’re just different kinds of weird.

        Don’t we all go through that phase, before we realize just how weird (and damaging) it is to be normal?

      To be fair, Nick actually *is* less weird than a lot of the other Skin Horse crew, in spite of being an attack helicopter with a meat peripheral. His fiancée, on the other hand…

    Is there a body parts catalogue Sweetheart can browse through?

      Remy probably keeps a selection on hand.

      Arms are kept on back order.

        Try the second hand shop.

          I’m sure they can find an arms dealer.

        Backs are kept in the armory.

        Backs are on back order.

        Arms are shipped in a protective sleeve.

          They keep running out of legs, however they are sitting on a lot of butts.

          Bears are shipped in a protective sleeve,
          The Arms are bare.

      Wouldn’t that cost her an arm and a leg?

        U.N.I.T.Y. Probably qualifies for a bulk purchase discount. Not to mention a frequent shopper’s card.

      I’m sure that Remy is ahead of her needs.

    Remember, the Biomass is capable of actually killing Unity. Sweetheart did a very brave save.

    H.T. isn’t likely to risk absorbing Unity either. He enjoys being the dominant personality.

      Not sure why the URL http://skin-horse.com/comic/todays-comic-550/ didn’t ‘take’?

      The foreshadowing was even more explicit.

    That. That arm that the biomass is about to mulch for parts contains part of the goop that is Unity – and that we know has herself ruled absolutely, a somewhat similar Biomass in the next-universe-over. And she knows that too.
    Taking-over biological systems is kinda what Unity’s blood does.

    (And she’s had a lot of character growth since then, too.)

    How distracted with the fight do we think HT is right now?

      “you are what you eat,” was always seen as a warning.

      An excellent point, George. This biomass may be unaware of the danger Unity poses…

    What a ripoff, Sweetheart…

    Surly Master Nicholas
    Lend your help this way.
    Unity and Sweetheart need
    Rescuing today.

    Say something to cheer them up
    Now your filter’s gone
    Turn the air around them blue
    Swear it good and strong.

    Swear it that you’ll save them from
    Biomass attack.
    While their building hits H. T.,
    Gives him such a smack.

    Take them both away from here,
    Let the battle be.
    Get back to your primal job,
    Wedding Dr. Lee.

    Catering decisions made,
    Seating to be planned.
    Baron M. or Jonah Yu
    Which one is Best Man?

    As for you, your tiny brain
    Isn’t even here.
    Down in the peripheral,
    Spreading loads of cheer.

    —from “Jolly Old St. Nicholas,” traditional, attributed to various.

    Nick urges them to get on board, away from the Biomass horde. The weird power couple are then out of trouble, severed arm nonetheless in accord.
