Grrl Power #1416 - Hoard bunny (Patreon)

Thank you for the support! You guys and grrls are awesome!

Many dragons have treasurephilia. A fetish for gold and trinkets and shiny, magic weapons and sometimes even nicely framed art or delicate glass figurines. Having a big hoard is a nesting instinct, as humanoid currency isn't really a necessity for them. When you bring a lady dragon back to your place, make sure you sweep out all the goat and adventurer bones, straighten up the tapestries with the gold thread you pilfered from the castle you knocked over, and make sure you've got enough coins and gems for a nice rumpy-pumpy caldera. And if you have a few virginal maidens chained to the sacrifice posts for a post-coital snack, even better.

Of course, that's how your more anti-social dragons do it. A few razorbacks slow cooking over a lazy magma fissure is nice as well.

Anyway, dangling a "gold" woman in front of a dragon like that, especially one that spends a lot of time in a humanoid form and can appreciate the particulars of the female humanoid form, is borderline irresponsible and/or funny, because Cora knows Maxima can vociferously dissuade Gaxgy if he "just has to have a little pinch." Cora figured there was a 50/50 chance Gaxgy would either do this or stand in the back forcing down a Squee of monstrous proportions.

And yes, I am working on a picture of Maxima supining on a pile of gold. I hope to make it a vote incentive, it just depends on how it turns out. 

Maxima knew she was going to un-disguise, and didn't want to wear that white zentai suit under the hologram for the reveal. As long as she's on the ship, she can do that. The suit is for off-ship infiltration, but the ship has projectors in corridors and rooms. They're not enough to do the whole interior holo-deck style, but Cora is planning on that as an upgrade. Partially that's for fun times when it's just her and her hunky crew on board, but having the entire interior of the ship able to function as a holodeck would make hostile boarding actions really difficult. If the force-field part of that equation was strong enough to withstand blaster fire and acetylene torches, or whatever raiders might use to cut through security doors, you could keep pirates going in circles for hours before they started to guess something was up. Or just send them in a U back to the hull and shoot them all into space. Really, any boarding party would have to have full environmental suits, because venting the part of a ship that raiders were in would be SOP.
