Well, she’s never called Virginia her mother, but I really don’t think she’d call him her “step”-anything. Kind of like how some people only refer to their step-parent by name, I think she’d still just call him Nick (she quit calling him Biscuit a long time ago).
i wonder whatsgonna happen with nicks body? seeing him in a human body is like having tip in boy clothes- i just wont feel comfortable until this is resolved u_u
I have a suspicion that once Nick and Virginia finally consummate their relationship, he will decide that having a human body isn’t so bad after all.
That said, I’m sure that Virginia implanted all the necessary hardware in his head that will allow him to jack into the Osprey whenever he wants to go for a little flight.
There’s something about seeing Unity in left profile that weirds me out a bit: I suppose the notion of “blonde cheerleader Unity” makes a brain cell or two misfire.
Is that a can or a beaker she’s drinking out of? It looks translucent on top in the first panel. (Perhaps she’s having a refreshing drink of acid to clear out the backed-up cake)
While I wouldn’t put it past her, acid would probably affect both her nanotech and the organic chassis she’s using at the moment. She probably found some embalming fluid that A-Sig uses in post-death-trap cleanup and put it in a handy container.
When I think of Unity, I picture her in right 3/4 view, but looking at the actual strips, there’s a pretty even balance between left and right 3/4 views. I wonder if there’s a dodgy “marked category” thing going on there- my brain goes “she’s black on one side” rather than “she’s white on one side” because I’ve learned to think of white as standard.
No, that was her inside voice. But the point is that it was audible at all. And saying it in front of Unity means there’s a good chance it will get back to Nick before long. Unity may have an “off” switch (blueberry waffles), but it doesn’t affect her mouth.
goink goink goink
Mel’s showing through.
“…the boys are marching…”
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who started singing that.
Unity just can’t handle the idea of Biscuit being her stepdad
Why’d you call Nick Biscuit?
Unity took to calling Nick that something like eight years of comics ago.
Stepcreator? What’s the right terminology here?

She did give Nick a get-well card addressed to “Biscuit” back in November 2017.
So, has Unity killed or maimed anyone and then judged someone else yet? Possibly the staff?

Probably the other way around – Nick returns to his helicopter body, but keeps the human body as a cyborg drone.
…Well, at least she’s telling SOMEBODY. She just needs to work on calibrating the transmission.
Had she admitted it so directly before?
Nope. Not even in thought bubble, IIRC.

“Blonde cheerleader Unity” is literally like over half of the zombie movies I’ve ever seen.
You must watch better zombie movies than I do.
Isn’t regular Coke acid enough to dissolve such artifacts?

I dunno. I didn’t really grasp that Unity was, er, two-tone, until the Whimsey World adventure turned into color.
(I think it’s a can. Ooh, and, naughty-naughty, she’s using a plastic straw.)
Wait, Tip is going to have another Existential Crisis when he finds out he didn’t ‘goink’ Doc Lee to the Horse-side, isn’t he
Umm, Virginia? That was your outside voice!
No, that was her inside voice. But the point is that it was audible at all. And saying it in front of Unity means there’s a good chance it will get back to Nick before long. Unity may have an “off” switch (blueberry waffles), but it doesn’t affect her mouth.
I think they meant outside as in “outside your mind”, not the outside-the-house and inside-the house usual differentiation XD
Virginia’s face in Panel 4 tells a story all it’s own. Very well done.
Good. At least one of them has admitted it to herself.
Worse, she admitted it to Unity.
Dr. Lee’s the last to know. No, make that the second-last to know.
And finally she says it out loud.
More out-quiet, but it’s a start.
