Ah. And Katrina is (mostly) immune, of course, but still able to
feel his efforts. He got some ‘splainin’ ta do.
You and me both, I had the same idea when she ordered him
to let them go and then Kelly reaching to strangle the frog… thing.
Now is he an agent of the GC or another Harcort Mudd from
TOS and SNW?
Aha! Now you’re “referencing”
another scifi great, Asimov’s
original “Foundation” trilogy.
IIRC, in the second book The
Mule, a telempath, almost
wrecks Hari Seldon’s plans
for a Second Galactic Empire.
(In best radio announcer voice,
“What is “Rygel’s” game and goal?
Who sent him? Stay tuned for the
next exciting adventure…of….the
Gentle Wolf”)
Naa, just a good reason for her pulling the gun. I suspect
That alone was the reason that these people are slavers,
Enslave the body, sooner or later they might rebel. Enslave
the mind, and they do it to themselves. I’m sure that was
the plan, get control of Teresa, get control of the Empire.
His race would control all members and expand even faster.
“..The new galactic empire!” comes to mind. As far as how
she knew? She doesn’t have real emotions, Rygel might be
using their emotions to control them, when he tried it on
her, nothing happened but she felt him in her mind.
This reminds me of the SG: Atlantis episode where a guy
was using an herb that made everyone fall in love with him.
Shepard had a cold so it didn’t effect him. Rygel was doing
the same thing with his telepathy. Who knows, he could
just be a con artist getting by on temperately taking over
people to rob them blind. That would be funny!
stargate is all about mind control,. Hathor uses a similar technique.
Hathor was using a combination of pheromones and a gas her body could
emit from her lungs.
I forget the name but that one SG-1 had tracked down in the US was
using something he discovered when he was a small system lord.
They mostly pretended to be gods and used fear to mind-control people.
funny that,, episode was called “Hathor.”
his name was Setesh, and he used Nish’ta.
and was defeated by taser or the Zats…
Zat’nik’tel..
Yeah he died to zaps, and he had no sarcophagus.
He was a bum to the system lords, if they found
him they would have killed him themselves. Hiding
on Earth from them if I remember right.
I couldn’t remember the guy’s name,
it wasn’t one of my favorite episodes.
Ah, it figures, a telepath. That alone is a huge red
flag. Easy Kelly, I’m on your side, I’d want to rip
into bite size pieces too. This guy’s the worse kind,
he can project like the Dargonflies, but clearly to
control rather than communicate.
Detention my dear, not jail. I think jail might be a
good place for the command crew, interviews with
the staff and slaves on board would tell the tale
on the rest.
TeleMpath. He can’t read minds or communicate like the dragonflies,
he can only control emotions.
So he can’t make someone, say, commit suicide, but he can make them
feel so much terror that they choose to kill themselves.
Ah I’ve known a few people like that, not at funky-frog’s
level, but close. My mother would read strangers and
would tell when someone was lying to her. Being near
her it was almost like a pressure. More so when she
wanted something.
It may be my imagination, but I think I see PC hinting at just how
driven by their odd biology and pheromones the Demons are. But
it looks like just having a woman designated as his mate in constant
proximity (that he was enamored with anyway) is having an effect.
His tail already looks a tiny bit thicker and more lively.
Well, His g-pa did say that he needed a good woman to be a strong emperor,
To both protect and make him able to do the job, we might be seeing the
effect it has this fast. I know just being with my wife was enough to spark
something in me…
No not that!
Well, that too, but I was calmer and had an easier time focusing.
I didn’t have to pretend anymore and was far less prone to get angry.
What do you think?

Well said! That stolen money would go a long way
towards the VA benefits and help the homeless
help themselves.
I’m sorry, the first thing I noticed was that he strapped luggage
on top of a pop-up camper.
Did Katrina know because of the implant
she had from her previous boss?
If I remember correctly she had one,
that’s how she knew she was targeted.
I think she had an earbud in her right ear then,
now it’s inside her head and no one can hear it
even when they are close up. I’m thinking it’s
along the same lines that Musk was planning.
In the RL it would also let companies broadcast
ads to you in your sleep.
I don’t want an implant if I have to sleep with my head inside a Faraday cage.
Dangit. No emogees here and I don’t know how to do a “thumbs up”
emoticon.
Waking up might be like turning a cell phone on with text messages waiting.
Can you imagine waking up and as soon as you remove the cage, your brain
is flooded with a cascade of advertisements that couldn’t be delivered while
you slept?
Or phishing attempts? Or data mining? Or (OH GAWD!) popups?
Endless, endless popups?
Viruses that won’t let you use your brain until you send bitcoin?
Well, I -hadn’t-. Thaaanks. 🙁
Or straight up mind control. Musk wanted it for communication and to
create direct control for prosthetics, but I wouldn’t trust anyone with
access to it. Futurama had an episode where Fry had a dream about
some fancy underwear, when he commented about it to the rest,
Lela said “Oh that’s just the chip they implanted before you woke up”
Then everyone went to the store to buy some.
Damn.
I first read that as “and to create direct control for prostitutes.”
Damn it, Scars, I’m getting too used to you.
We talked about Niven’s Slavers before, in reference to their
digestive system. This guy looks more like the Grogs they
evolved into, and may be playing the same game. Like the
Changelings in DS9, they may be driven more by fear of
being found out than any desire for conquest in and of itself.
