    So Tip needed the obvious set-up line repeated… but then she overcame her angst after one go-round with him. I can’t tell if he’s losing it or improving.

      He’s improving. Tip never loses skill, he can only gain.

      Naaah, his psychotherapist side just got the better of him and intercepted that line before his… erm… other side could pick it up. Occupational hazard… 😉

        Wait, it just occurred to me on this read. Why are they both still wearing their bras? Is that, like, a thing? Did they wear them all the time he was soothing her undead torment?

    I’m gonna be wondering for DAYS just how, exactly, one can use a taser in bedroom sports. I mean seriously now– talk about the Body Electric…..

      Better to wonder for days than to look it up.
      Seriously dont look it up

        One of these days, I’m going to add a character named “Violet Wanda”.

      A SMALL electrical charge can be used to add…stimulation…if you’re into mixing pleasure and pain. The key, though, is small. Specific toys are used that are designed to provide a slight shock. A Taser, Cattle Prod, or similar that causes full-body convulsions and outright agony would kill the mood, not help it. I can’t speak for everyone of course, but honestly I doubt anyone out there would enjoy an actual Taser in the bedroom*.

      *Porn doesn’t count. Primarily because those aren’t real Tasers. IF they’re live, they’re modified to deliver a much more minimal charge. Shocking an actor several times a take, and then reshooting the scene again and again, would be a significant health risk that no company would assume.

        “kill the mood”

        ….I guess you don’t hang with many masochists. Just saying that I know some that get a dreamy look and stiff body parts in he local Tractor Supply store while browsing cattle prods and electric fence chargers.

          You mean like Ruby from the Rosario+Vampire manga?

          See, now that’s what I mean. I’m familiar with the effects of tasering on the human body due to my line of work (mental health/substance abuse patient case research) and those things HURT. Not the fun kind of hurt, either– quarter-sized bleeding blisters, extreme incontinence plus loss of sphincter control, seizure-like tremors, that kind of thing. Then again, different strokes and so forth…

            Shouldn’t you know that the law enforcement taser and the “tasers” that most civilians have are two different things?

        Ooh, maybe Ms. McGuire is a zombie now, and needs stronger stimulation. Like Tasers and Tip.

        Any proper “fun” taser would have intensity settings. This IS a strip about mad science, you know.

        I can say with utter certainty you’re wrong there. I know a number of people who get right the heck off on real intended-for-defense electrical weapons. (Applied with a considerable degree of care to avoid the damage they can do, mind. There’s books about this stuff.)

        Dude, you’re not supposed to do that. I started reading the comments around 7pm, and only just now managed to escape (it’s 2am now)

        Yes but they are generally embarrassed about it and need some sponges to clean up the oil leaks in the morning.

    (TUNE: “Crazy”, Patsy Cline)

    Taser …
    Used in a way I’m not used to!
    A taser
    Zaps her the way she would like!
    Humping
    Like weasels on triple espresso!
    Then jumping
    Walkers on her motorbike!

    Furry!
    She said, “I’m also a furry!
    Wear this!
    Play that we’re Stimpy and Ren!”
    Tasers …
    Tasers just turn on this woman!
    A hit from a taser
    Did not even faze her …
    She said, “Let’s get nasty again!”

    Unseen panel in between 3 and 4: Tip still doesn’t get it, so she repeats the line more emphatically while dragging him to her cabin by his collar.

    Man, I can’t believe Tip slept with one of my favorite authors. I mean I CAN believe it. But still…

    I’m still not sure if this strip is traducing Seanan or complimenting her. Or both. 🙂

      Well, if twitter is any indication, she seems pretty jazzed about it. I’d go with “complimenting” or “both” (maybe).

        I’m a little worried that it’s giving her ideas to use, either in upcoming novels or in person…
        Of course, she’s killed off several friends and acquaintances in her own novels, but I don’t think any have been brought back from the dead to have post-resurrection kinky sex.

          If the line about soothing undead torment isn’t from one of her novels, it ought to find a place in the next one.

          What kind of post-resurrection sex do they have, then?

    The Seanan McGuire I know & the Seanan McGuire being shown here are being somewhat different people. :/

    Will Tip be holding on tight to her on the back of that motorcycle?

    And will he color-coordinate with Ms. McGuire, the zombies, or both? (If anyone can pull it off . . . )

    You not only got Seanan in, you got a Feed reference in. I heart you so much.
