Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
The 7th discussion thread for the superhero comic Grrl Power.

Starting at page 1198 we hopefully move on to more interesting topics than the recent Archon Orgy.Last edited by lord_khaine; 2023-10-20 at 06:19 AM.

Tagging this so i can follow. Also, I kind of wish we had spent more time on amorphus and his issue with the whole mess, but that got sidetracked almost instantly into yelling at dabbler so im pretty sure dave doesnt want to dwell on any negative repercussions to this.

Seems to be the second seventh thread.
The end of what Son? The story? There is no end. There's just the point where the storytellers stop talking.

I'm noting what Parfait said about the bonds increasing power but not control.

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
It is repeating what we got in an author text box.
But yeah. Does explain the reason for all of this nicely.
A massive unexpected power surge when a teenage succubus is hooked on to the power of a arc fiend.
Also worth noting i think. Is that Parfait said she chose Thom.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
I think its more the way she described it to sydney. She is getting pleasure centers stimulated that she has never felt before. Imagine if you have had sex many times before, enjoyed it greatly, then suddenly you learn about this thing called erogenous zones. They have never been touched before, you had no idea there was such a thing. Suddenly now sex is like a thousand times more incredible feeling! It would be pretty overwhelming. And it could easily make you lose control until you have experienced it enough to be ready. Now imagine you are a psychic like jean grey and what losing control could do to those around you? Its probably a balance of the two really. She is getting pleasure overload from the whole contract thing and is also trying to contain a massive power boost for the first time. Thats got to be a very difficult challenge to overcome. Like trying to use cerebro for the first time while in mid *ahem* well you get the idea.

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
I think they are a couple but its a fairly serious thing going by her jealousy at the very start of the comic when she thought daphne was making a move on her man. If I remember the backstory correctly, they and achilles are a sort of independent team that has joined arcswat or some such thing.

In that its more than just being collared that caused this.
The collaring also link the magic of the involved parties.
And Parfait got her teenage sized mana pool linked to a progressive 300 year old fiend who basically just went "help yourself"

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
Like most of the succubus sexy shenanigans in this comic, I don't Dave even thinks that they are negative actions at all. Or nothing more than something deserving a slap on the wrist anyways.
Max are holding an emergency meeting over this.
Poor Parfait has to do a public apology.
Dabbler has to do a bit of conflict resolution that she is thankfully overqualified for when being serious.
Just.. its also not blown further out of proportions than it is.
Someone very young lost control of a super power. Stuff happened because of it.
Likely everyone in Archon can nod agreement to that. Even Max of all people has made bigger messes accidentally.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
This comic reminded me that sydney is still comically unaware of what her mom does for a living even though it would probably have been helpful if she had gone to her with it first. Not that she seems to mind what her contract gets her so far.

Small in terms of raw property damage yes, but I think the potential emotional damage related to the aura are pretty severe. It seems like as is or at least as it happened here it just kind of pushed people towards what they were already inclined to do but it could go very dark very quickly.

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
Except everyone is just cool with it and even Amporphous only feels kinda sorta guilty about it.
Because personally? In that sort of situation, I'd either be asking for a guarantee for that to never to happen again, or I'd quit immediately. And if I was in Sydny's situation, my answer to Parfait would be a regretful no. I don't think I could ever trust or be comfortable around her (or admittedly any succubus) after that. Not for a long time anyways. So the idea that we've got nearly a dozen people or so, all of which are pretty much cool with what happened (including Sydney), is pretty unrealistic to me.Spoiler: I'm a writer!Spoiler: Check out my fanfiction[URL="https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7493788/Forum-Explorer"here[/URL]

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
... honestly, every time we go off into the succubus tangents I get the same sort of vibe as this DM's game.
Despite his obvious desire to do so, I honestly wonder if Dave should bother writing erotica, because he's bad at it. His 'sexy' scenes come off about as titillating as a five-year-old mashing naked Barbies together, at least to me. The weird 'everyone-is-wearing-an-invisible-corset' anatomy doesn't do much for me either, but I can at least respect that as a stylistic choice. I really enjoy the funny, the superheroics, the portrayal of an ADHD character deeper than "SQUIRREL!"... but the 'sexy'? Mehhhhh...
And no, I haven't forgotten the whole 'cheesecake/beefcake' tag, that doesn't bother me much (beyond, like I said, the anatomy that I find kind of weird and off-putting), but whenever the characters go beyond flirtatiousness, I am left with questions.

Having a friend and co-worker get exploded by a stray plasma blast
As i have mentioned a dozen times now. We got pretty clear evidence all this did was make people really in the mood.
So no i dont see how it get meaningfully worse then the fallout Dabbler is now clearing.

Everyone is mellow on what was likely the best sex they ever had. It makes sense the mood is relaxed.
Even when told this was caused by a power accident.
But yeah. In turn thats the sort of american ideology i personally find weird and impossible to understand.
Your expected to risk your life at work. Go into obscenely dangerous situations. Get exploded if a teammate lose control of her electro power? No problem.
Your at risk of accidentally banging your hot coworker if a tantric magic loser has a accident? Your out? really???thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
Because I won't even allow myself to be drunk, that's how much I absolutely hate losing control over my own emotions and actions. Sure sometimes I'm relaxed enough to loosen my inhibitions, or emotional enough, but those situations are still because of me. Having someone force me into that mindset? I'd view it as a violation, like I would if someone slipped me ecstasy or mushrooms without my permission, no matter how positive the experience ended up being.
Fighting an enemy? (Even an enemy mind controller) Sure, I can accept that as a risk. Because I'm putting myself on the line to protect other people from them. I'm not doing it for the fun of it and when someone does try and attack me, they are seen as a problem. And Maxima runs a tight ship. We don't see Jiggawatt or Heat Wave completely losing control and exploding on their allies. They are trained daily, probably to avoid that exact scenario. If they did lose control and maim an ally or civilian, I'd expect there to be consequences.
So far this is leaning towards Parfait basically getting away scot-free. There's still some pages left to go in this conversation, so maybe that can turn around, but the fact that no one so far has a problem with it does bother me.Spoiler: I'm a writer!Spoiler: Check out my fanfiction[URL="https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7493788/Forum-Explorer"here[/URL]

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
Its doubtful it will be scott free. Most likely there will be restrictions on her visiting until its confirmed she has proper control over herself and there may be more to it. Remember she isnt a member of archon, she is part of a foreign powers crew. Which complicates things as even if they wanted to throw her in the brig for daring to lose control of herself and accidentally making everyone in the building horny but able to control it if they wished, they probably couldnt due to causing issues with tom the leader of infernal darkness or whatever his titles are.

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
She could easily ban Parfait from the premises. Well technically speaking, Parfait doesn't have a passport (and even if she does, she certainly didn't cross the border officially), so she could kick her out of the country entirely.
But more realistically, she could say 'Parfait isn't allowed on Archon property,'
At this point restrictions on Parfait visiting would be a pleasant surprise because that's how little faith I have in Dave.
But speaking of Tom the Fiend, should he (and by extension Deus) be having serious problems with the Council? Like they have an entire organization dedicated to preventing supernatural things from exposing them all, and Tom is walking around with an army of literal demons.Spoiler: I'm a writer!Spoiler: Check out my fanfiction[URL="https://www.fanfiction.net/u/7493788/Forum-Explorer"here[/URL]

Re: Grrl Power VIII: Hotter Than What's In Sydney's Lunchbox
I mean, aliens are a part of that council and already exposed, and there is a significant faction that doesnt want to hide anymore anyways, so its likely its a somewhat moot point by now or there is enough debate that they cant do anything anyways. It honestly feels like the genie is out of the bottle and all thats left is the slow confirmation of everything supernatural existing as its not like they can do anything to change that. And Deus isnt a part of the council or under their control, so they cant officially do anything to him, and unofficially would end badly for them considering his known defenses alone. As for parfaits punishment, I think restrictions are a likely one. I mean, there should be restrictions anyways if only because its a non member of archon on the base without notifying anyone or getting permission. That alone should be getting both her and sydney in some amount of trouble. The fact that something went wrong, even if a relatively mild issue like this just compounds it. It wouldnt shock me if she is banned until she has proven her self control makes her safe to be out and about without a senior on hand to reel her in just in case.
