Grrl Power #1305 – Save 50% on roller skates
Is there anything a bossomy hug can't fix? Well, yes, but that's no excuse not to keep trying.
I struggled with the layout of this page because I really wanted to include the above group hug panel on it, but I just couldn't figure out how to fit it all without shrinking other panels to unacceptable levels. So it's a bonus panel. Still totally canon though.
I don't know how it works when you have a catastrophic accident and you require surgery and all that. Sure, in civilian life, the hospital would contact family members and presumably you'd probably have someone waiting there for you to wake up, assuming you weren't in a coma. But in the military, I don't know if they would assign someone to sit there so you get a SitRep the moment you wake up or not. If it's a busy day and there's people rushing around because there was an ambush or something unexpected exploded, they might not have the staff to have someone sitting at your bedside - and I don't even know how critical it is to do that, but I'd think that if someone is going to wake up missing a limb, finding a way to ease them into that new reality would be preferable.
Realistically, I assume in a military setting, you'd probably have a row of cots where a few people can keep an eye on multiple patients, but Maxima pulled some rank as the commander of a dark and mysterious special ops unit, and got Peggy a private room. She obviously didn't drop her off at a field hospital. Max flew Peggy back to Camp Bastion, and not some Combat Surgical Hospital, which is a big half-pipe tent. The modern version of a MASH unit.
I would also fully believe that the military would allow Peggy to wake up by herself, and the only explanation for her situation would be a clipboard with Form MF-40156-b, requisition to replace missing boot.
Of course you really only save 50% on footwear if you know someone missing the other leg. And they have the same taste in footwear. And the same size foot. Not for socks, but it wouldn't help Peggy if she knew a 6' 3'' dude missing his left foot. Presumably he'd wear something within 1 of a U.S. 12, and at 5' 4'', Peggy's probably rocking a 6 - 8? Plus women have about a million times the shoe options that men do. Most of which are more painful than most men's shoe options, but still.
I suspect if I was a woman I would have a decent size collection of cool boots. Every time I google women's boots for Maxima reference, there are a ton of cool and/or sexy results. 90% of which Maxima would never wear, but they make me regret not being a transvestite.
Okay, not really. Is it weird that I think about my if I was a girl" wardrobe? It just occurred to me one day how different most of my life would be if that 50/50 coin flip that determines our sex came up the other way. Not the broad strokes, of course. Me being a boy or girl wouldn't affect where my dad moved our family due to his job, or what schools I went to - at least not through high school. But would I have been into sci-fi and fantasy movies, video games and comic books and D&D if I'd been a girl? It's not impossible, certainly, and I might have appreciated the physique of my He-Man action figure in a different way, but it's probably a lot less likely. All of my drawing came from wanting to draw my own superheroes and Vallejo/Frazetta/Elmore/Parkinson/Caldwell style pictures. Would this comic exist? I think there's like a 10% chance. Of maybe it would be called Man Power, and it would feature a bunch of muscular, shirtless dudes with effeminate faces and dazzling cum-gutters. Sydney would still be named Sydney, but he'd be built like an 11 year old boy... Okay, Sydney wouldn't change much I guess.
The newvote incentiveis up!
Dabbler went somewhere tropical, in a very small bikini. As you might guess, it doesn't stay on for long, which of course, you can see over atPatreon. Also she has an incident with lotion," and there's a bonus comic page as well.
