Idrisah definitely doesn't want to go you guys. She hasn't even considered it.

Edit: Also so I dont get a billion questions about it, I changed my mind on Talita's outfit for this last part of the book so she's in a jumpsuit now. Previous page files have been edited but not on Patreon which remains a grim testament to my indecision and fuckups

ohhhhhh that explains why mel is willing to let talita “take” the runaway despite being mad at her for quitting. they’re trying to avoid more scrutiny from upper management

What was the aluminum buyer incident? 👀

EdenArtFactory

oh cheevwut is going to laugh their fucking TAILFEATHERS off when they connect the dots in a couple months when ohwitiil throws the biggest fit ever

Origamigryphon

Typo: "responsibilities" is written as "resposibilities" (missing the n) EDIT: also Argument as arguement

Shadow

Now THAT’S a legal slam dunk! SEE YA SUCKERS. I wondered if that screw-up with the buyer Ohwitill messed up was gonna cause any blowback >:)

Blue Rhythm

Damn, Idrisah's put a lot of thought into this. Maybe she won't need as much convincing as I thought, lol.

Gryphongirl

Earlier in the comic, Ohwitiil messed up negotiations with their aluminum buyer so badly that they completely lost all business with them. It's why the departures schedule suddenly became open enough to fit Bip/The Runaway - all the ships that would have been carrying scrap out to the buyer were cancelled.

AsTheJayFlies

Its an unexplained noodle incident, on page 128 cheev says that ohwitiil fucked up big time and shows idrisah their phone and she says ‘that WOULD void the contract’

The Protogoon

Ah, yes. The power of "god this would take so much paperwork if we continue investigating". Also absolutely love how clear it is that this isn't even the first time this has been thought over by Idrisah.

BakedBananners

OF COURSE idrisah looked all this up OF COURSE

Adrienne R

Wow, hell of a last-minute decision, but I didn't realize Bip was also headed to Nexus Jovia, so I guess that makes it less weird that those two might tag along. And if the ferry only has shared bedrooms and facilities, a private room that's also free and will get you where you want to go even faster seems like a pretty fuckin good deal... Hey Tod um so HUGE favor to ask about all the boxes we just finished moving into the ferry

Devoted Archon

Wondering what Tod thinks of all this excited sign conversation happening like 10 ft away from him

Sparky Lurkdragon

I mean... I think all they'd need would be a food supply/printer + material and ideally a multispecies toilet, since the gas needed is all the same across all the sophonts... ...If they get All The Zucchini off Rasheed, I'll laugh.

Considering what Idrisah said and how 3 of their long-term People Who Get Stuff Done are leaving, I've got to wonder how long the recycling plant's going to last. Gives me "this place is bleeding out" vibes, y'know?

Shadow-mockingbird

I love the way the aluminum buyer thing is Ixion's Noodle Incident. I also love the way it's been carefully threaded in up til now, almost like background humor with a side of Plot Usefulness (or the other way around), though I won't lie I feel like all these legal things are going to eventually come back to bite not just Ixion but our Runaways too. For better or for worse, things have a way of not disappearing even if you want them to.

Alight

Hey, surviving off of zucchini would make the story come full circle, no? /joke

warriorcat.royboy

Realizing we only have like 20ish pages left and getting SAD, but God I'm so excited for this crew to FINALLY Runaway to the Stars

Andelie

Ah. Idrisah deals with stressful situations by Doing Research. I know the type.

zaratustra

the recycling plant was already a bleed-out from a much larger mining operation, but yeah

SenGrisane

All the legaleeze is making my head spin.

Thisfox

"feks sake, you can pack and talk people, pack and talk, wringing your hands isn't going to help anyone" But no, of course, he knows that Gillie signs, so he'd not be too surprised friends are talking before they leave.

Rapaz

idrisah seems to have been researching all of the relevant laws and procedures as a way to convince herself of why she SHOULDN'T go xDDD

Calcifer

I'm surprised how easily she caved lmao. I knew Gillie would jump at the chance, but I kept wondering how Idrisah would be convinced. I guess the ferry has just gotta be shitty enough. Though, thinking about it myself, I think I would also be convinced if the other option was 2 weeks of living in a crowded dorm with strangers in space.
