    Ah ha! ok then he REALLY needs help, I remember how exhausted
    Teresa was after the attack on the Legion’s HQ while she was
    visiting, AND how much she hated sardine protein drink 😀

    Typical pilots, always forget who holds the pink slip on their
    craft. Reminds me a lot of when Spike let Miral fly his Dagger
    without Victor’s a-ok, got a new job REAL quick!

      I think Spike was aimed for that job anyway.
      That he stepped in the do-do and thereby made it VERY
      hard to say “no” to the new job-offer is another story…

        I know, just thought it was funny that he screwed up that badly,
        even Miral knew enough to get the ok even in a possible combat
        situation afterwards, if it’s not a decision that needs to be made
        in the heat of battle, ASK!

    I’m seeing changes and maturity in both ‘toons.
    Look at Teresa’s face (panel 3). She’s no longer the chubby
    faced little girl at the start of this whole series.
    And observe Taritha’s attitude and demeanor. She’s no longer
    the wild carefree Romini “kitten” that was pressed into being
    Teresa’s “lady in waiting”.
    Amazing what responsibilities and expectations will do to a person.

    (btw, I’m loving Taritha’s shoulder rig! i wish I could
    get away with wearing something similar in public)

      There are States in this “Union” where
      you could wear that in public.
      I know Georgia is one, and Texas.
      Florida passed no permit concealed carry,
      which is very good and very bad at the same time, IMO

        Oh, I could probably (legally) wear such
        a rig in the state that I live in.
        But it would be frowned upon by “sensible folk” (snicker)

          My son has the almost the same rig he wears when he’s out riding,
          you would not believe how many look at his bike and think “It’s a
          Harley! GET HIM!!”

      I’d say it’s been about 10 years now (give or take) since she took office,
      PC had shown her older self on the Patron site in a “flash ahead” pinup.

      Interesting rig. Semi-auto on the left, revolver
      on the right.

    I hate to imagine what the young man in Missouri looks like.
    I’m imagining a Dachau survivor.
    I weep.
    And the people that are abusing him?
    I’m thinking the same attitude as the
    Waukandans with the FSA “gibsme”.
    (btw, how are they doing under their new Legionnaire king?)

      Teresa said it’s a boy, and the abuse is they don’t believe he has limits,
      “You can heal people, heal yourself!” I’ll bet is the thinking. That and
      they have to ration their food and don’t want to give him the extra he
      needs to keep going. This was the very thing that Teresa was at risk for
      if she came out about her healing ability.

    Not a stealth mission, then. An airborne “invasion/assault”. I wonder what
    the Empire’s relations are with whatever hegemony is set up in”Missouri”.
    It may wear the name Missouri, like Texas wears its previous name (or A
    previous name since the territory isn’t perfectly the same).

    In general I’m happy with the loosening of firearms carry laws, but I strongly
    wish the in-my-view necessary correlating actions are taken. I wish that
    firearms safety, maintenance and marksmanship (in that order) training was
    mandatory part of getting a high school diploma (along with STEM, history,
    ethics, critical thinking, and a few other things necessary to maintaining a
    free and responsible democracy). Instead, I find that we (Washington) are
    withholding funds from high schools that teach hunting, firearms use, or even
    archery, because they are teaching kids to use “dangerous weapons”. Like
    that doesn’t make them MORE dangerous, or like a hammer, crescent wrench,
    baseball bat or kitchen knife isn’t a dangerous weapon. But there I’m entering
    decidedly non-Empire politics, so I apologize and shut up.

      I know the downside of it, in my day the streets weren’t safe, but there
      were fewer guns than now. All the more reason that the good folk carry!

      As a school kid, our school system was badly short on funds for education,
      however the sports teams always had new equipment and they re-did the
      gym floor with a new, larger school logo, ‘nugh said.

        Ah, yes. Athletic teams with new equipment.

        I recall one scene from Mr. Holland’s Opus, when Mr. Holland is playing
        chess with the football coach of a fictional high school in Portland,
        Oregon, Kennedy High School. Something about the day they ban
        football in this state, or cut funding, or something similar. Basically,
        how high school sports, especially football, in Oregon is such a big deal.

        And it was then. I grew up in Oregon, fortunately well south of the
        Portland metro area, and at least that part of the movie was dead on.

      Jochi, do you watch YouTube? I very much enjoy William Kirk’s “Washington Gun Law”
      channel. WK is a practicing attorney and is always enlightening to watch.

        not much, other than looking up old songs to subject my youngest to, or
        some of the gaming stuff. Which lately has expanded to chess problems.

      In international politics a rule has been when a state does not have control of a territory / area supposedly part of that nation,
      then any other nation that is being wronged by that area has the right to act in that uncontrolled area and right that
      transgression as reasonably or by the means as they see fit.
      Of course the twits often yowl

    Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t that Pteran Destroyer Captain’s name “Ket’rrt”?
    (See TGW-944 for his introduction.)

      I believe you’re right, It’s the first of the Ptero/terran/human hybrid ships.

    — but… but… there is an open ride, just sitting there
    —
    — ok, we can be adults for a few minutes first and introduce the aliens to Dad, sheesh :{

    There Marise, was that so difficult?

      You are correct.
      And then they can not be expected to return any time soon.
      Fun, Fun, Fun, and daddy won’t take the T-bird away!

      Lady Taritha’s shoulder rig might be useful come permanent open carry time.
      She wears it well.

      Rescue that child, team. Be very safe. Take all defensive actions required.

        I’m sure they will meet with resistance, but they lost the right
        of it by ignoring the kids needs for his service. When someone
        is your greatest resource, you don’t treat them like a slave!

          i think, there is a adult who is exploiting the kid.
          “if you are good at something, don’t give it away.”
          iv’e seen an worked it more than once,. over work
          the asset, (so they don’t ask,, ‘to tired’) then
          blame them when it don’t go “just so”.. and punish
          them for ‘your’ mistake…
