Well, that’s interesting. Looks like we are going to need Plo’Quar to come back sooner than expected to reach Selkie how to manage these more intense powers.
My thoughts is the suppressor hair clip was more like a dam then a dampener. Once Selkie went over the threshold limit, it surged out in a flood. So basically she is going to have a darned time of fine control.
So, power was dammed up… will she STAY super-powerful, or with an outlet, will levels return to something reasonable? Pretty sure will stay top end, that was fairly assured before the hair clip came along.
Yup. Although this should help a LOT with any lingering resentment. Selkie may be more powerful, but Amanda is unique. They’ll probably compete, but they don’t actually have to.
I was expecting destruction of the meter! Not quite as bad as I’d called it (I believe I’d suggested “a smoldering stump”) but I suspect it’s no longer functional with that chunk missing 😂
I was NOT expecting this/that. Those are designed to “quote” Take a hit.
It’s not merely off the charts, it may be unchartable.
Next up, space Pirate Selkie, scourge of chartable Space!
I think they’re tears and also bits of her finger-webbing that we’re seeing. It’s been ages since the sarnothi anatomy splash page but don’t markings come in at puberty?
[more off topic] True, but this Cobra was nothing like a Mustang. It was designed and built from the ground up to be a world-beater, and it did just that. I knew two wonks wh owned, drove, and raced theirs.
Let’s see, she first manifested with a headache, and now emitting the first time is painful. Sounds like future echo powers are going to be a literal pain.
Cool!… Now what if we see Scar curled up on the floor having PTSD flashbacks of Plo’Quar taking out his arm and face… We’re Probably gonna be seeing Then grinning like a loon over how powerful Selkie is… The really interesting looks will be from Todd and Andi though…

If Amanda was close to Scar’s output when he was a child … this says some pretty intense things about Selkie’s potential.

Selkie is having a very destructive day!
Amanda, thinking:
“(Past teasing of Selkie + witnessing Selkie’s potential) x NOPE!!! = I am so glad we’ve moved beyond that!

Nice toothy chunk out of that meter, Selkie.

I don’t know if it’s totally nonfunctional, but it’s certainly out of calibration.

Plot twist: she missed, and shot a part that she wasn’t supposed to shoot at :p
Anybody else notice something behind her hands?
I’m wondering if that’s a tear… or if she’s going to have her markings once she pulls down her hands…
I noticed that too! Leaves me wondering which parent she’ll take after.

Yeah, its a puberty thing. Benny’s are only just starting to come and he’s, what, 4 years older than she is?
I agree that it’s tears because *her eyes just exploded* and it HURT.
That’s what you get for forcing it Sel. Pro tip: don’t go from 0 to 100 in no time flat
[off-topic] It’s about 13 seconds up to 100 and back to stop for a Mark II Shelby Cobra (Ford 427 CID V-8), so under 10 seconds to 100 mph.
Nothing like a mustang with a V-8! 😀

You cut corners, Scar. Corners are important.
Everyone who bet on Selkie BOOMing the meter, you can collect your winnings now.

I can appreciate the fact that you acknowledged the possibility of a huge beam like that being painful, especially if you weren’t expecting if.
Good think Tank wasn’t around…
You mean Truck?
Yes.
Me: It’s either going to be A or B. Or maybe C
Dave: D
Me: … c’mon. that’s basically A. She broke the thing and hurt herself doing it.
She’s got her mother’s eyes
Ok, this made me laugh out loud.

I’m guessing the markings in panel two briefly read ‘999999ERRORARGH’…
“It’s over 9000!” *crash*
She’s gonna be sore for a while.
ALWAYS STRETCH BEFORE DOING SOMETHING SERIOUS!
