The Gentle Wolf
A modern adventure webcomic
Power Dynamics shift.
Jonathan is on the phone. Funny isn’t it,
Jimmy is always to blame. Surprise Marcus,
who cares who you are.
your wife is going down.
Melissa is shocked as well. I don’t think she
realized what computer was actually worth.
We saw the light, frame eight.
Hmmm… Knowing Jonathan, could be anything. Including Teresa.
But I think this is going to be a waste of her limited time. Marcus,
no one cares. You’re both guilty of abuse, and Sarah of theft. Your
“rein” is over, and nothing either of you do will change that.
Their ‘reign’ may be over, but I suspect they are about to acquire
new ‘reins’, at best.
Jonathan knows precisely who he is. If he really is anyone, he
*should* know who Jonathan *really* is. Jonathan ‘cares’ only in
choosing which contingency plan to activate. Which he is doing.
At the start of this story arc, didn’t Jonathan
say something about a “watch list”?
And now I can see why “her highness” acts that way, and a second
Karen suddenly appears, Jonathan uses police action, it’s double
effective! (pokemon reference) Both are about to face the cold hard
truth when the cuffs click shut. And they meet both Bubba and
Bernadette. Both of you, wear lipstick…
It’s always the case, the smart ones see the light first. And with their
help, more may join with them. Everyone, a show of hands here,
who thinks with me that what’s left of the GC might join the core in
exile? Might get crowded, but it’ll help stop any farther BS.
Here’s a thought, Marcus is on the Imperial council, and thinks
that makes him immune, if so, that’s double prison time!
That could be, or anywhere else in public service. Still hard to
believe Sarah didn’t recognize her Empress on sight. Or the lead
star of the most popular adventure show on TV not that long ago.
She might have known and don’t like her, so she’s “beneath”
Sarah’s scope. Which is both asinine and self-righteous.
Sarah is one of those “karens” that think THEY decide who
is above or below her social standing. I swear this woman
is a carbon copy of my elder sister…
Except Sarah needs 100 lbs more to look like her LOL.
Teresa keeps a very low public profile.
I don’t think she’s ever given an interview, for example.
And her Marines don’t talk about her adventures – That’s family time.
Oh noes! The old “Do You Know Who I Am”?
defense! Well, “Karl” (a male Karen), no one
here kares (had to go there). Your wife is STILL
under arrest for theft of property not hers.
And you might soon be too, if you keep
flappin’ yer yap.
As Ron White (‘Tater Salad) said, “I had
the right to remain silent, but not the ability.”
Ha! Well said! I’m sure Jonathan was calling the werewolves just then.
This would fall firmly in their area.
It’s great that you want to leave the
GC and join the Wolf Empire, BUT!!!
Let’s see what you need to do to meet
the conditions, rules and laws of the
Empire.
Some kind of self-nerfing of their emotion control mental powers
to ‘self-defense only’ for starters. Then probable compensation
and education, like the Demons, to any they’ve enslaved. To start.
Flag’s gonna need more stars.
Their skill would be useful for questioning a criminal.
“It’s ok you can trust us” and make them feel safe to talk.
I think that would be wrong on some level, it depends on
what they did or were going to do. Katrina and Teresa
are ideal people to deal with them, far too strong a mind
to influence. Now some minor grunt working as a minion…
>recognizes no species as “lesser”
As an Admiral from another universe has said:
Respect and courtesy are high value coin to those who receive little of it.
People just assume they are “greater minds” and expect
everyone is below their standards. And they are always
broke when it comes to respect and courtesy. They think
they can tell everyone what to do and how. Typical mindless
leaders, they are the Empire’s biggest hurtle.
greater mind- back in HS we took the SAT an a college entry test,.
the senior history teacher (10 year tenor.) petitioned to have me in his class,
as to prove i cheated,. because there was no ONE smarter than him.!
i left his class in ten minutes,, as it was brow beating, not teaching.
there were 4 of us, that were lectured on cheating and pretending to know
more than him.! when i left i went straight to my counselor, and explained,
and gave a sealed letter to the principle as to what he would say, as to why I
should not leave. (which he said almost word for word…) he retired , early.!
That sounds like that algebra teacher I had, no one
can be smarter than the teacher. In my HS most of
them did not care, as long as they got paid, you could
start a musical fart band and they would complain
about the smell heh. You know it’s bad when you can
get a broken nose in class just minding your own
business… damned jocks…
jocks.. when i was 13 i missed 6 months of school, bully put me in hospital.
my old brother came home, from the Marines. an taught me how not tobe
a door mat. (sperm doner was, “fighting never solved anything.” And IF i
fought back i got my ass beat by him.!). all of 14 was learning how to fight,
15 was in an out of schools for fighting. (one of em was history,.)
16 i had to go to a school out of district,,, like Joliet from Chicago… (not)
diploma -ed early,. on 17th b-day,. was on the yellow footprints for the
Marines…
Yeah, that sounds about right. I had to drop out or be expelled.
Just because I wouldn’t let a star player hit me. Granted his arm
was in a sling but still.
similar – star quarterback, ‘even had the NFL sniffing him’,,,
111% school support an endorsement.! he decided i was to be his bitch for the year.!
that included a 3 on 1 jock vs nerd, beating,. i don’t remember the fight,. after –
he can no longer play,, both thumbs broken. skool expelled me, cuz they lost the star
this was the 70’s and money was involved, so they wanted me gone…
Yeah, it doesn’t bother me one bit…
Wait, when did the stars come out?

stars…
Sorry, no story update today.
Life…
if you are well,, we are good.!
No sweat.
Waiting is……
New machine still eating your lunch?
Yes, it’s giving me fits. Every time I fix something, something else
rears it’s ugly head.
I made this page on it, it’s so fast……..
Then I tried to save it to a USB drive to transfer it to my internet
computer, and not a single USB-A port worked! I had to reinstall the drivers.
Got that fixed, and one of my GPUs quit working.
Got them both working (Swapped slots) and some controls in DAZ Studio disappeared.
I’ll get it working, but it’s driving me nuts. I feel like I’m married to it –
It’s always “Just one more thing…”
Keep healthy and Murphy’s law is always present.
We’ll be here.
Guys, I spend this afternoon talking to the hospice nurse,
she’s talking about bringing a hospital bed for my wife.
Plus a potra-poddy and doubled her meds. My eldest,
once he heard this, grabbed his wife and ran up here to
visit his mom and to promise handling everything for me.
My desk and computer is getting moved out to make
room for a cot for me to sleep on. Plus he’s going to help
getting things setup for her machines, I’m way to out
of date on the codes.
