Considering that it was Faye's rash actions that got this ball rolling it's kind of ironic for her to stay that to Bubbles

--- Quote from: brasca on 30 Jan 2017, 18:23 ---I doubt Corpse Witch will retaliate. She has no cards left to play so she'll probably cut her losses and let Bubbles go.

She may not be able to use her police contacts at this point but if she's part of a Robot Mafia she might appeal to them for protection and retaliation. She's also now at the "cornered rat" stage of desperation. When a railgun package has your name on it there's not much left to lose.

Does she know there is a rail gun trained at her? And even if that threat was made to her quite possibly that would be enough reason for her Mafia associates to abandon her since that is the kind of attention they do not want. And when did she lose her police contacts? She lost her control over Bubbles, but I don't recall that happening. Now Bubbles could go to the police that aren't in on the corruption and possibly get an immunity deal, but she would also be turning on a lot of AIs that still work for Corpse Witch for similar reasons which is why she is mulling it over. I think they both know that so for now Corpse Witch will have to cope with the recent loss of 2 important employees and greater chance the place could get shut down. I know a lot of people want to see some kind of glorious comeuppance, but she could just as easily fade from the scene like Angus, Nat, and Raven.

From the "Notes for New Members":
--- Quote ---7- Please, no religion or politics. They just lead to people getting all het up in entrenched positions with consequent unpleasantness, so we don't allow it in general.
--- End quote ---
But apparently that rule doesn't apply when you want to criticize a president you don't like. (Full disclosure: I don't like the guy, either.)
QC: Come for the aggressively silly sci-fi plotlines, stay for the feral political rants!
Sorry, but I'm out.

Admittedly I've not read this particular thread too closely, but why exactly have you posted that reply here?
Dustin1280:
Still hoping the comic does something with the greys...
You don't just introduce a character that appears to have godlike powers, and then dismiss it as a giant squid never to be brought up again...
If the comic goes this direction it will make me crazy.

Jeph's house, his rules. You don't have to read his comments after the comic, there was even a warning.
