Panel 7 – Good thing that wasn’t a turbine engine,
wouldn’t you say, Mr./Ms. Coon?
Well, well – that’s quite a different use than we
all imagined last week, eh? It’s a positive incentive
to get the best efforts out of all of the trainees.
Also, since they’re scored as a squad in aggregate, incentive to improve
teamwork and building up the slower/weaker team members WHILE
pushing the better ones to excel.
That’s what I was expecting, Gopi hasn’t accepted that it’s over
and she’s safe, yet. PTSD + survivor guilt is an awful thing to
live with.
Heh, that coon should have been a missile, got a bit lucky AND
learned a lesson. I was torn between target practice and a perk
for hard work. No turbines, don’t need them, but the tube allows
for thrust without the need of them. even at an idle, that coon
should have flown 20-30 ft! I love that idea by the way, rocket
levels of thrust without heat, flame, or smoke! And an old mech’s
dream, no moving parts!
I think that coon was looking for a place to nest, there’s food,
water, and a handy hiding spot on that medivac. I honestly
thought it was going for an open man-door on the side of the
medi-unit. Raccoons love handy hiding spots, groundhog
burrows, attics, a concrete pillar form my father hung from the
barn rafter, and so on, I guess it thought that handy-dandy
pipe on top of it’s “larder” made perfect sense,
up until it went “Pa-tooeee!!!! HEH!
even the Dyson bladeless fan,. has moving parts..
and same principle, those ‘tubes’ are thrust vectors.
IE: they provide thrust,. more if water is added.
and, PC said they are running (low idle) to power
the accessories..
Those do have a fan, the electrostatic charge is a gimmick.
You can see the fan and the vent holes in the ring, the
charge just angels it. My ion “engine” moved a little air,
but mostly shocked me stupid when I got careless. :/

Panels 2 & 3 – Where is Mist?

Mist wasn’t needed until panel 4.
She is an aide and enabling ‘tool’..
Did one of the dragon flies scare the poor ‘coon?
Panels 7 & 8.
Hovertext.
Darn I missed that thought.
The turbine ejected the coon
not a dragonfly.
Thanks Sam.
Mist is on the pillow behind Mavia in panel 2.
You can barely see her wing.
Also, since they’re scored as a squad in aggregate, incentive to improve
teamwork and building up the slower/weaker team members WHILE

One of the best explanations I’ve seen of the loss of the HMS Hood:

The question is – was the engine damaged (even slightly)?
Couldn’t be. No moving parts.
I’m just curious why it ejected the coon.
If it’s not running it basically ought to be a simple tube.
even the Dyson bladeless fan,. has moving parts..
and same principle, those ‘tubes’ are thrust vectors.
