Luara’s pretty good with technology, maybe she can help Sam out? ;P
A bit of a heads up alas. My usually wonderful(ly awful) planning has resulted in me screwing up the Back Office, Bata Neart and Coffee Party schedules. I’m usually pretty far with the Coffee Party stuff by now, but this year due to competition projects earlier on and the house move I haven’t really done anything and now I have two months to create a 10 page manga that isn’t horrible. So with that in mind I was already going to make the usual break 2 weeks instead of 1. However I think I might have to push that up to 3 weeks due to me being kind of wiped out too.
So provisionally, I going to set the following as the next start up date. And again I’m sorry that I keep doing this so often lately 🙁
Monday September 28th 2020
Hope to see you back then!
No worries, we’ll be back. 🙂
This is as good a cliffhanger as any. See you then. 🙂
Take care of yourself first. Those of us that are Megatokyo fans are used to interruptions in updates, so this doesn’t bother us at all.
Yes, Sam should definitely ask Laura for help in blowing up her ships full of munitions. Hopefully she won’t be too upset after Laura snaps her in the back of the head with that rubber band she’s holding (yes, I know it’s rope to tie her up, it’s just funnier as a rubber band).
Thank you again for everyone’s patience. I do not deserve such wonderfully understanding and supportive readers 🙂
FYI. By the time we go though the next 5 pages, you’ll get the theme of this chapter. No-one has guess yet 😛
@Farren:
(Laura snaps Sam on back of head with rubber band)
Sam: Hey!!
Laura: Surrender! Or i’ll snap you again! MuhahaHA!
Sam: No!
(Snaps band again)
Laura: How’s that then?
Sam: Mildly annoying…
Laura: Oh…….erm…..Daisy-Flower RUN!!
(Angry Sam chases them down corridor)
Ah hahahaha. I’m thinking you should collect all of these little “comment ideas” and make mini comics out of them. They could make for some fun little omake.
I have to concede, I was really on the fence on whether it was rope or rubber bands when reading the comic. Rubber bands may not be an effective weapon, except when hunting flies, but they can be used to tie someone up! (if you have enough of them, which may be unlikely)
@08: if what Laura’s holding are “rubber bands,” I think it’d be more accurate to describe them as bungee cords.
So then she intends to take Sam bungee jumping to get her to reveal her secret plans?
“Do you expect me to talk?”
“No, Ms. Sam. I expect you to die…No, wait. I do expect you to talk!”
@Farren: Somehow I get the impression that Sam might be the type to enjoy bungee jumping.
Yeah, I can definitely see that.
“Are you ready to talk?”
“Never! I’ll never tell you anything!”
“Then we’ll just have to keep doing this.”
“Wheeeeee!”
Daisy-Flower: “Laura, I don’t think this is having the affect you think it is.”
“Nonsense. She’ll talk too enough.”
30 minutes later: “Daisy-Flower, I think you’re right.”
😀
This comment section is pretty good at providing entertainment in lieu of updates! 🙂
I find myself wondering for how long a human can withstand bungee jumping. Racecar drivers and fighter jet pilots can do what they do for at least a few hours, but that is generally without the zero-g element in there and with pretty close to 100% of the g-forces not just predictable but precisely controlled by the one experiencing them. I think at 30 minutes just about anyone would be throwing up. A lot. Probably the medicine mentioned here youtu.be/q1_AJWZajEk?t=318 would help, but we’re talking torture method here, not record attempt.
Fun detour, but bungee jumping with a cord much thinner than a finger is quite unlikely. I think what is normally used is closer to two or three fingers thick. The kind you use to strap things to your backpack though, 3 or 4 mm thick, could be what Laura’s holding. Probably is very uncomfortable with high risk of stopping bloodflow if used to tie someone up. The way she’s holding it though, certainly looks like she’s feeling out the elasticity of it…
