It may well be an agreed thing during their private playtime. But when not in private, and out of that context; when in a context of you attempting to conquer / subjugate a population? Tom will be lucky for just a few broken bones, instead of parts being removed :}

Stefan J Neylon

Is she talking about a BDSM thing? It seems like Dabbler would be into that.

eddi_TBH

Even though her blood just hit the boiling point.

eddi_TBH

That's routine for her.

tom has a surprisingly squeaky voice in my head when he is screaming. The threat of having your face amputated probably does things like that.

Jabber

FYI, there actually is a science fiction short story with humans meeting a race called The Baby-Eaters, called Three Worlds Collide. https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/HawFh7RvDM4RyoJ2d/three-worlds-collide-0-8

BJ

I'm assuming this is just a dom and sub thing sans the context. Quite possibly intentionally by Dabbler cuz she likes pushing Max's buttons.

Sogen

Hmm, considering his face seems to be constructed of nothing but bony protrusions, I wonder how much all those cracks hurt. Judging by his reaction, I'm gonna guess the answer is "A Lot"

Evgeny Sandu

I suppose it's a dramatic flashlight for her camera. arcPhone, I suppose.

Nicholas A Wagner

Accepting other cultures has a limit, and that may be Maximas.

Eric Loken

"FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT!" I laughed. :D Considering how much Xuriel enjoyed Maxima's treatment of Tom earlier, I imagine she is taking significant sadistic glee in the situation now. Instead of 'baby eater', the equivalent would be 'evil'. Per the Cambridge English Dictionary: "an evil and cruel person:" "What race am I? Oh, we're Evil." As Sydney said, that would be a bad start to the relationship.

Eric Loken

That is of course what Tom and Dabbler mean by it (I hope), but that is *not* where Maxima went. She immediately went with the more general and much older definition - the same one that probably would get more than a few black folks in North America a wee bit worked up if someone said it to them without context.

Eric Loken

Oh yeah, Syd heard that sentence and just backed up to watch the entertainment. "And here we have Maxima about to throw a serious beat down on some punk..."

Stephen Gilberg

You know, I had just learned the other day that back when slavery was common all over, most slaves weren't against the idea of it; they just didn't want to be the slaves.

Stephen Gilberg

Usually it's Sydney doing the swearing.

Tim

Aaaah, nothing like the sound of the bones in your skull creaking to tell you that you must have done something *seriously* wrong to wind up in this situation.

Aaron Mauthe

Ooohhhh, maxima better hope that part doesn’t wind up on the internet. She gonna get canceled by the Kink community for bigotry.

BJ

Does Sydney have a dramatic lighting orb?

Dane Filemyr

Meanwhile, I imagine V is in the background eating popcorn and watching Max threaten to remove a Tier 1 badass's face like "Yeah, been there before, bro."

Spike

Shadowed Max in panel #5 looks extremely cool.

Immortal_Knight

Okay but holy crap? How many times have we seen the f bomb actually dropped in the comic? and to that extent no less?

Ian Brown

But what is The Mighty Scoville doing there in the background? Did she bust out her cameraphone to catch Max's impending crushing of the soulcrusher? "WORLDSTAR!!! WORLDSTAR!!!"

Fekk Yoo

damn i cant wait for the next few pages...i really wanna see how dabbler gets outta this!

Daniel Schinhofen

Breaking your face, just got a bit literal

I think Dabbler would love a situation like this where she could easily spin it as Maxima getting jealous of someone claiming they own Dabbler. Would be interesting to see how Max might react to that line of reasoning.
