    Did he mojo her somewhere else? Or was it Mama Cypress?

      It has to be Cypress, Tip doesn’t mojo himself away from the girl.

    He should have started with a waltz.

    Blink ! ! ! ? ? ? Hmmmmm…
    Did she just teleport at random like a D & D blink dog? (If so, is she Lawful Good and will she bite something evil when she materializes?)
    Has she been abducted?
    Or did Tip’s collar mess the mojo? Hope it’s not a chastity collar…

      A chastity collar! What a marvelously nefarious idea! And so very Ari…

      Now that I’m looking at the background, I suspect that Tip may be the one who was blink-teleported.

        Well, they were headed for the bushes, and in the first two frames, they don’t appear to be anywhere I would normally describe as bushes.

        I suspect in the second frame they were still headed for the bushes, and we are not being shown the rest of the process of actually making it into the bushes, because nothing interesting happened during that time.

        However, given Tip’s state of dress, it looks like the “blink” happened immediately after they arrived at the target destination.

    And apparently he didn’t even manage to rid himself of the collar.

    I think Tip just mojoed himself alone?

    Mojo has never had this effect before, so I suspect this is an outside force (probably A-sig).

    Did he mojo her to Skin Horse headquarters? Sweetheart & Unity are gonna be surprised!

    I could be wrong, but this really doesn’t seem like mojo. Mojo as we know it isn’t just arbitrary teleportation, it duplicates the effect of narrative omission. It doesn’t make a “blink” sound. If it made a sound, it would be the sound of a brief snatch of music, the duration of a title card reading “Later, at a charming local bistro…” or similar.

      I feel similar on this.

      That “blink” seems a bit reminiscent of “foom” to me.

    This reinforces the earlier theory that Lt. Eris is really a drone. Apparently, Tip’s mojo only works with living, breathing organisms.

    Or not.

    You know, in a world where mad science exists you’d think SOMEONE would have cottoned to the existence of magical teleporting mojo and made a study of it. Possibly including a plan to show them all, although with mojo it might end up being a little more direct than mad scientist plans often are.

    “They called me a dateless loser in high school, but i’ll show them all when I grasp the scientific principles behind mojo itself!”

      Something like that would greatly reduce the number of mad scientists, because they would be too busy using the mojo for, er, “personal uses” to be playing in their laboratories.

    I’m thinking she’s a mojo-ologist and her advances in tip were more calculated than we knew

    Finally! a surprise when Tip and a woman head for cover.(“But he’s always been so dependable….”)

    Did she not come with as she is not there??

    Perhaps she’s now on her way to Lovetron.

    In the first two panels there’s no bushes surrounding them. In the fourth panel Tip is surrounded by bushes and a different building is seen in the background compared to the first panel.

    Methinks it was Tip that was teleported, leaving Lt. Eris behind. Probably be the Cypress who likely wants to talk to him alone.

    He seems to be in another of A-Sig’s punishment zones. Are there any walnut trees around?

      No, but it appears that the hills are alive.

        With the sound of music?

          Sound, yes, but not music. A bit too much screaming to be harmonic.

            No songs they have sung for a thousand years, then.

      I don’t know, but they’re really punishing Tip: this world appears to be devoid of lip gloss.

    Probably better that he didn’t, what with the location tracking bomb collar.
