Eight years is a long time to wait for the right moment.

Part 38 of Phase 9 is here - 27 panels, and things on that stage are about to get very loud, very fast.

Apologies for being late. There are a lot of moving pieces in this epic story! And posing and lighting everything just took way longer than I thought it would.

As always, thank you so much for sticking with this wild, dark, sometimes hopeful story. Your support keeps me going. Comments are everything to me and I can't wait to hear your reactions. 💕

I think you can start to really see the shape of the "flash forwards" from the beginning of Phase 9 now...

Very loud, very fast indeed. Didn't think we'd be that "close" to the mainland.

Alyson Greaves

God fucking damn. Hell of a way for me to wake up lmao

Tim

So much here! So what do I focus on? Panel 18. The look on Soledad's face (there's a story brewing there), and the look on Brooke's face four panels later is an excellent runner-up.

Jade Diaz

Ok, honestly Hanna is the real heroine of this episode, entirely and completely smooth brained even in the face of quick action and life threatening violence. Aspirational! P.S. I love how cunty Liam is to Dr. Frankenstein

Maggie Heels

THIS IS AWESOME... THE BEGINNING OF "THE END"...

Maggie Heels

THE POINT OF NO RETURN HAS BEEN REACHED

Maggie Heels

I ❣️ reactions for revealing the main prize... I am curious though... because of the train of mayhem just closed the doors and left the station... that probably means... "the prize" will not be implanted after all... hmmm I am wondering if Jill would be interested after all the dust settles down...

Jenny S

For funsies, I made a chart of how I think the Xuniverse girls would feel about the whole "getting knocked up" thing. https://i.imgur.com/DUES1Ff.jpeg What a wonderfully vast variety of girls you've made for us, Emory <3 What an amazing reveal, and what chaos it brings! Oh, Xu, how could you possibly think anyone in that room was going to be civilized about this? The guests are all rich psychos, and the girls all want your head! For an evil genius, you sure are stupid. :P SO satisfying watching the Bear get his ass kicked. So many of them are overdue an ass kicking. (Don't think I see your hand going to your belly, Jill. That said, I am personally on Team "Josie Has a Second Kid.")

Fecking Hull 😵‍💫

Gemma

I don’t believe it! The good guys seem to be winning. I have learnt Emory, and am trying not to relax too much anticipating the possibility of some last second unexpected twist.

Pet Jeffery

Wow! There's plenty there that I didn't see coming, especially Holly at the end. But, if I remember rightly, Xu's wound won't be from a knife in the neck. And Connor/Connie has yet to strike. There's plenty of room for more twists in this already repeatedly twisted story. I was interested by the facial expressions of the contestants. It looked to me as though Hanna was the only one not distressed by the prospect of an implanted uterus. I think that Hanna is becoming, about to become, or has the potential to become a much more interesting character.

Pet Jeffery

I would have liked to see your chart Jenny, but when I clicked on your link I saw an error message reading "Content not viewable in your region". Do you have to be on Second Dawn's island to see the chart?

Pet Jeffery

Oh, I forgot to mention something of which you should maybe be aware, Emory. The email notification of the new Jack & Jill episode went into my junk folder. I don't know why; hitherto, your notifications have all gone into my inbox. It's a good job that I always check my junk email; I don't trust Outlook to sort the sheep from the goats, and obviously rightly so.

Maggie Heels

patreon changed lately how notifications are sent... now they're sent from indidualized e-mail adress

Pet Jeffery

Maggie Heels, That will be it, then. I hope that nobody's email notification is languishing unseen in their junk folder.

Ella Cherry

Wow! That’s it… just… wow!

M Fielding

..... annnd, Boom! Holly comes through. Magnificent! And now I'm really worried...

Tim

I love your "funsie" chart, Jenny. You obviously saw this coming and were well-prepared, posting this just an hour after this episode dropped. If you wrote Liam's response after reading his reaction to the prospect of becoming pregnant, that was amazingly quick work. But I rather think you knew how Liam would respond with perfect precision and had already written his line. With Emory's permission, and your agreement, of course, I'd like to add this to the Google sheet right next to the Part 9-38 entry. Given the difficulty Pet Jeffery encountered, that might work best if Emory included it in her Patreon library and I could link to it there. That's where all of the other spreadsheet links point to.

Jenny S

I made it between last episode and this, and yeah, Liam's reaction might have been the easiest to predict. That guy's having none of it :D Feel free to do with it is as you like :)

Ellen Mellor

That was an excellent episode! Lots of fun twisty turns and still lots to come. Do you know how many more episodes there are left because I'm desperate to reread it but don't want to start too early because that would just make it all worse! The close-up of Xu was terrifying. I don't know how you did it but you managed to make his evil soul stare out through his eyes. And the skin... you could see how every second of his sick, sadistic game has ravaged him. Truly he is a super-villain for the ages. The Project De Novo logo is very pretty. I'm not a girl who goes in for tattoos but it's just screaming to get inked onto someone's tummy. And I think Jill has suddenly realised that she has always wanted to be a mother. Her face and the hand on her belly are saying more than Ryan or Adele could do with their words. Although Jill's right foot seems pretty articulate as well. I feel so sorry for Adele. But, maybe, being totally spaced out is a reasonable option considering everything else. And of course, Holly hosting an entirely different show at the end. One that will have everyone glued to their seats until the very end. This ain't no Love Island...

Cryofly

It's happening!

Pet Jeffery

Jenny, your new link works in the UK. I especially like what you say of Kendra, something about which I hadn't previously thought.

Alex Hait

You are absolutely amazing. The images are amazing as always, but your storytelling steals the show.

LikeGender

Oh my God, if Jill wins, she loses her last vestige of masculinity to gain a reproductive slit. If this contest had an ending and a winner...😱

Jenny S

I doubt Mrs. Ferris would be able to get her hands on the tech, but if she did, OH BOY

SingularCurve

This is exactly how I feel about this episode of this story! It is also how I feel when a new chapter of your flagship story drops.

Tim

If she could, Jenny, but was limited to only one De Novo implant, who do you think she would she chose to receive it, Kendra or Sandy?

Jenny S

Well, it's hard to imagine these organic implants don't have an expiration date, they won't stay on ice forever. At this exact moment in Half Sisters, I think Ferris would give it to Sandy if she wanted it, and in her own twisted way would see it as getting to have grandchildren. However, while I think Sandy has largely accepted herself as a woman, she's locked in on law school and would want to focus on that for the next, oh, ten years. (I suppose there's no reason she can't get the uterus and just not get pregnant, but I don't think she'd want to complicate things like that right now) As for Kendra, that would be much more immediately satisfying for Ferris, watching her former husband bring another child into this world as penance for what she did to Sofia. It's important to remember that while Mrs. Ferris isn't quite as bad as Xu and sort of on Sandy's side, she is still a broken person not above twisting people's insides for her own satisfaction. I think she'd have a moment of panicked realization that she brought a child into this world for revenge and that's fucked up... but only AFTER Kendra gave birth.

Thomas Tolliver

Phew, been building up to this for awhile! How does it feel to unleash it??

Pet Jeffery

Jenny, yes, I think you're right about Sandy, Kendra, and Mrs Ferris. (That is, apart from a minor point. I thought Sandy intended to study palaeontology, not law. Or am I confused?) Palaeontology would be a much cooler thing than law for a mother to study; all kids love dinosaurs. And, yes, the implants would surely have an expiry date. I know that they freeze eggs and sperm for later use, but a uterus is a much more complicated thing and, for that reason, must be more difficult to preserve for an extended time. So far, though, as far as we know, uteri have only been prepared for Xu's contestants. It's very unlikely that they're yet ready for Sandy or Kendra. Hutchinson would surely want one for Nikki, but Hutchinson has only just discovered that such a thing is even possible. So, Nikki, too must just be a possibility for the future. It's not clear what Xu intended to do with the uteri prepared for unsuccessful contestants. Creating them seems a lot of work to do if they're just to be discarded.

Jenny S

Oh, duh. I think my brain farted and swapped Sandy and Josh's majors :P

Doctor Stepford

I think Hutchinson Will implant a de novo in nikky

Emory Ahlberg

The stakes are absolutely insane right now, Pedro! Jill stepping up to win to save Ryan and Adele means she might actually have to face that reality.

Emory Ahlberg

Haha, it sure is, Cryofly! Brooke finally hit that button to send all those terabytes of data over to Morosini, and Holly's got a knife straight to Xu's throat on the stage. The tension is just through the roof!

Emory Ahlberg

Well, M, Holly definitely made an epic "entrance" for that finale!

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Ella! 💖 I'm so glad you enjoyed all the chaos!

Emory Ahlberg

Haha, Gemma, you're so smart to stay on your toes! 💖

Emory Ahlberg

Hell yeah, Zoe! Seeing the girls finally team up to take down the billionaires felt incredible. 💖

Emory Ahlberg

Oh gosh, Digi, that's such a creepy but totally plausible theory! Hutchinson was practically drooling when he asked Xu for a custom De Novo order for Nikki back in Texas...

Emory Ahlberg

Honestly, Thomas, it feels pretty incredible. Nine years of story! 💕 I'm of course terrified of not sticking the landing... hope you're enjoying the ride!

Emory Ahlberg

I loved your chart, Jenny! 💕And I think I agree with just about all of your choices. That made me laugh so much, thank you!

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Tim! 💖 I spent a lot of time on those facial expressions, so I'm glad they tell such a story all on their own!

Emory Ahlberg

Maggie, you are completely right! Once Brooke hit that execute button and Holly put her black-bladed knife to Xu's throat, everything officially crossed the point of no return.

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you so much, Alex! 💖I pour my heart into the writing, so hearing that the storytelling stands out to you means a lot to me. Hope you continue to enjoy it!

Emory Ahlberg

Clinic 12 being just sixty miles off the coast of Astoria definitely makes the whole operation feel way too close for comfort! 😉

Emory Ahlberg

Hope you're still getting notified when there's a new story!

Emory Ahlberg

Waking up to Jill kicking the Bear in the junk and Holly holding a knife to Xu's throat is a lot for one morning cup of coffee. 💖

Emory Ahlberg

Hannah's totally living her best oblivious life! 💖 Just standing there with her serene little smile while all hell breaks loose on stage... Goals?

Emory Ahlberg

You're right about Hannah. Everyone else was freaking out over the De Novo announcement, but she just kept that perfect little smile plastered on her face. She's buried her trauma so deep that an implanted uterus just sounds like another fun chore for her employer. Yikes!

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Ellen! Yeah, Xu really looks like a bit of a snake in that image. And you may very well be right about our dear Jill! 😉
