what kind of power?
mooching, kissing asses and social level? oy…only person it would help would be maybe royalty or politicians. and if she is ANY OF THOSE…oh BOY.
They could be at the LoSRH headquarters, for all we know. They don’t have their own place together. I think Alex just has her own place, and Eva stays over there a lot.
If a storyline will benefit from her being in the LoSRH headquarters, then it will happen there. If not, then it’ll happen in a nondescript room, which I think we can assume is Alex’s house/apartment. These things tend to be pretty fluid and are adapted to the given story arc, unless there’s a specific, major story-event for which the nature of their relationship is changing.
Think of it as the same as the Family Guy thing I mentioned several pages back, about the nature of Stewie’s interaction with the rest of the family. Can the rest of the family understand what Stewie is saying, or does what he says come out as baby talk to the rest of the family?
Which option is appropriate for a given episode? Then that’s how it works in that episode. The only constant is that Brian can always understand him.
… I do not get this one… possibly due to the fact that I am a dissocial introvert recluse who try to avoid social interaction, let alone care what people think about me.
It doesn’t necessarily revolve around social interactions, but that’s a common source of the issue. It’s more a matter of over-analyzing things when you’re trying to get your brain to shut the hell down and let you go to sleep. When you’re cutting off all visual and auditory stimulation, when you go to bed, that can be an invitation for your brain to go nuts and all introspective, when deprived of the white noise of outside stimulation.
In the case of social interactions, you could be trying to analyze interactions that you had that day, trying to figure out what someone meant by some comment or other.
It could have something to do with the racing-thoughts side effect of obsessive-compulsive disorder. I’m obsessive-compulsive, myself, so I don’t know how many of my issues are a result of that or are something that other people deal with as well. I’ve had some people react with horror when I describe the sort of stuff that is going through my mind all day long, with 5 or 6 different thought channels spinning out tangent after tangent, some of those quite unpleasant.
They have ears, just not external ones. If you have an organic structure that picks up and analyzes the vibrations that we call sounds, then it’s an ear. Snakes just suck at picking up sounds transmitted through the air.
Hell, that article even refers to snakes’ inner ear, at the end of the first paragraph. The vibrations are just generally passed up through the snake’s jaw, rather than through an eardrum-like structure.
Yeah, I’m familiar with them. We just don’t have many around here.
In addition to the specific structures that aren’t present in snakes, the legless lizards simply look a lot different. The heads of most of them are nothing like snake heads, and the bodies are generally more round.
It does bring up an issue – has Alex moved into LoRSH HQ (ostensibly for the lower rent and larger bedroom) And if so, how do they keep Keith from trying to peek in on them (I assume cattle prods are involved)? And if so, is Defendress considered a member of LoRSH?
But if Bucky moved in with Alex, then has she resigned from LoRSH? And if she hasn’t resigned, how does she and Alex keep those bums from moving in with them and escaping the tyranny of Gyrognome?
And will Bucky ever have an upper limit on her manifestation of The Most Common Super-Power?
Strange how we end up over-analysing when we suppose to be in our most comfortable position (sleeping) About fur years ago I was told to at the top of rugby stand (Murrayfield) when stewarding an international match, first time there did the job and didn’t think about it given I have a fear of heights, and I was doing my job.
So it wasn’t till later when home asleep I woke up exclaiming ‘Oh $H!T did I really go that high?!’
So true…
As long as you learn from it no big.
Are we seeing a power of hers manifesting?
The power of self loathing, maybe.
That isn’t really self-loathing as much as it is over-self-examination.
Next up. The power of waking up and analyzing upcoming interactions. followed by screaming
So all the powers of Ronnie from Whomp! With breasts ALMOST as impressive as his.
He has more experience though… She’ll stand no chance
what kind of power?
mooching, kissing asses and social level? oy…only person it would help would be maybe royalty or politicians. and if she is ANY OF THOSE…oh BOY.
Well, her known extant power is setting things on fire in the kitchen. I’m sure this one will be just as difficult to apply in a useful manner.
Setting things on fire just by BEING in the kitchen, mind.
Although it could be related to cooking. So if she gets a self heating ration she can make grenades.
Gee, I thought it just a WestWorld reference!
Nope. I haven’t watched it.
We already know her power. Consumable Components Pyrokinesis.
Soooo… Bucky here isn’t going to be staying with the rest of the group, any more? Probably for the best.

It’s not only over-analyzing. Sometimes it’s the nagging feeling that you just have to program that software etc. pp..
Oh, by the way, did you turn off the stove?
For some people, it can tend to happen with thoughts that would normally be considered irrelevant or inconsequential. For example, it may be the random, stray question if penguins have knees.

Since the answer is “yes,” I’ve done my part to ensure that *someone* may be able to sleep tonight…
:D
Yes, but do snakes have ears?
Nope.

Does Hawaii issue winter storm warnings?
They have ears, just not external ones. If you have an organic structure that picks up and analyzes the vibrations that we call sounds, then it’s an ear. Snakes just suck at picking up sounds transmitted through the air.
Hell, that article even refers to snakes’ inner ear, at the end of the first paragraph. The vibrations are just generally passed up through the snake’s jaw, rather than through an eardrum-like structure.
Fun Fact: You can tell legless lizards (yes, those are a thing) apart from snakes by the fact that legless lizards have visible ear holes
Yeah, I’m familiar with them. We just don’t have many around here.
In addition to the specific structures that aren’t present in snakes, the legless lizards simply look a lot different. The heads of most of them are nothing like snake heads, and the bodies are generally more round.
On the Hawaii issue, don’t the taller mountains on the big island get some snow sometimes?
Yup.
I often find myself lying awake at night wondering why the hell I’m not asleep yet.

And will Bucky ever have an upper limit on her manifestation of The Most Common Super-Power?
I’m betting on them continuing to have their own places and just having slumber parties, as GG calls them, at each other’s places.
I think Alex probably has enough combat-usable tools in that utility belt to keep Keith in line.
I’m positive that that’s Alex’s. Not enough spider-related holes.
The webcomic adaptation of my life! Interesting casting/interpretation: I’m being portrayed as a Black, LESBIAN superhero … neat!

Oh noes. They found me.
