The woman was falling very rapidly towards the ground. As she was doing this, she was thinking how disappointed people were going to be when they heard about her demise. 'Did you hear about what happened to Clara? She got too close to the edge of the building, slipped, and fell to her death. The idiot.'

As these thoughts were still coursing through her hyperactive brain, when suddenly something slammed into her body and knocked the wind out of her. But wait, that wasn't the ground... Something had hit her and she was now going back in the opposite direction she was falling just seconds ago. She had no idea what was going on.

Before Clara could process what was going on, she was back on top of the building. Looking up she saw this, being, that was dressed in strange colorful clothing. It loomed over here with its arms akimbo looking...heroic?! "Who... Who are you!?!"

The being glowed with heroic presence. It looked down down at her and boomed, "I AM THE GREAT VILLAIN TUESDAY."

"You saved my life! Thank you thank you, I don't how to repay you Great Vill... Villain? What do you mean? You're a hero. You saved me!"

"I CAN NOT STAND BY AND SEE SOMEONE FALL TO THEIR DOOM..."

"That's not something a villain wou- *OOOFF*"

After kicking her off the roof, it continued, "...WHEN I WAS NOT PART OF IT."

I see Zoë's rocking the Ellen Rippley look. I approve.

The whole airlock thing is interesting. It could just be coincidence, but...

Poor Chaz. He was briefly, finally, owned by not just a capable warrior, but THE most capable warrior on Earth, and her reaction once he became powered up was basically "meh". His entire purpose and reputation as a sword of unmatched power has just been called into question

I love Zoe and Torg not just as a couple, but as a team! High five!

Poor Chaz! But I think Torg has proven himself more than capable (not Oasis or Kusari-level certainly, but when he needs to, he gets the job done).

"OMNITAZER SUPREME!"
Gooooo Zoe!

A question, though: Can anyone tell me what's wrapped around Chaz's hilt? It doesn't look like a normal part of him to me, is it? I know my eye isn't as young as it once was, buuuut...

Or did I miss something somewhere? I don't even remember seeing it when they were outside the station, did I?

hmmmm...

It's the ferret wings retrieval device thingy. Check the refs under the strip, Pete linked to when they were last used.

Ah the good ol' Omnitaser Supreme. I love how no matter who uses it, they ALWAYS shout its name as loudly as possible when doing so. This is a very important condition of its use. It's probably printed in the instruction booklet and everything.

I'm not going to high-five you while you're wearing the Omnitaser Supreme.

So why is Chaz so moody? Is he still smarting from being rejected by Oasis and being returned to Torg or is there some sort of underlying cause after stabbing one of the Sashas?

You know, I'm starting to really dislike Chaz. Torg is a good owner. Stop being whiny.
