Alice Grove MCDLT - February 2017
A small perverse otter:
Well, we know one thing at least: Ardent's powers are screwing up the world's balance something fierce.

And we still have no idea how he got these powers, but the Praeses would seem to be the number one suspects.

1. On takeoff, the Walker shows up, grabs the orbiter in flight and pulls it back to the ground. After the inhabitants get out, another THOOM and another new crater on the moon. The orbiter joins Gavia's nanotech in Alice Grove heaven.
2. On achieving orbit, the new craft is unable to connect with any orbital platform- both craft and orbitals repel each other. Back to Earth for another plan. Pate and Church are not in a good mood.
3. Once Ardent gets aboard the orbiter, it begins to continually evolve. By the time it reaches orbit, both orbiter and passengers have been absorbed into a new, sentient being with godlike powers. Including time travel. In this way we learn who did the Blink.
4. As soon as the orbiter gets in among the orbital platforms, it begins shooting them apart one after another. We then pull back to discover that the Earth is just part of a giant game of Asteroids being played by aliens.

1. If the Walker menaced rediscovered advanced technology that often I think Pate would take precautions and while Alice failed to stop it from absorbing Gavia's nanotechnology Church might be more persuasive. Of course the thing might've burned itself out and no longer a threat.
2. Could be a possibility unless the ship is equipped with a space suit for Church, but even if he can breathe in space he may not be as powerful in zero gravity.
3. That would provide a lot of exposition, but I don't know where the story could go from there. It would be a gestalt of 6 different beings which might make it difficult to function.
4. The only problem with that scenario is the tank shooting down the space craft is always on the Earth's surface. It never rises above them.

That'd be interesting...and depressing.

Okay, just a little implication in today's strip:
(click to show/hide)The super-soldiers can survive in hard vacuum!
Apart from that, I have only one thing to think right now:
(click to show/hide)The thing is a through-space displacer!
