I was expecting some weird alien customs and Lyndon not managing to emulate it convincingly; but this works even better.

I've been powering my way through the Accidental Space Spy over the past week. It lacks the characterization and character interplay of Hitmen and Trixie Slaughteraxe, but it's delightful to read Thorsby's endless musings on evolutionary quirks, plus he puts his characters in such dire situations, you get honestly tense about how they'll get out of them.

Did the rod strike break the spell's pacifism? The past examples were all deadly, but if a moderate head bonk is enough then it raises the question of how much damage is too much.

Shoulda claimed the groom was a ghost. Now they can't blame it all on the groom's dead evil twin.

I choose to believe that the Holy Rod of Mirmormir actually dispels illusions as well as ghosts.

(but Lyndon still lost the spell and we'll never be able to tell the difference)

I fully believe Trixie could have convinced her she was dead.

Actually this could be pretty useful... if it wasn't for that whole pacifism thing. Tying people up, quick tripwire, attach the arm to a big old rock and drop it down a cliff as a climbing rope etc.

Whats going to happen when he stretches too far and the person hes carrying hits the ground and dies and he loses his spell while hes stretched out

What shall we do with him? A permaban, perhaps? Probate him for a few years? Or...shall we employ a big red custom title? You, the goons of SA, shall decide his fate.

He instantly snaps back to his normal shape. The recoil flings him to a previously inaccessible spot he needed to reach. He later reluctantly reveals that a living thing dying was part of his plan, unintentionally impressing Audrey.

There is no strip Audrey appears in where she isn't demonstrating that she's the best.

edit: Did he cast his spell on Trixie? She's got some extra reach.

New one!

How did the Traditionalists find out about this? I'm going with either:

1. They have Trixie's apartment bugged.

2. Audrey is selling the Traditionalists information, so that she can keep on getting paid to go on adventures

3. Klara is giving the Traditionalists information, so that she has an excuse to keep hanging around with Trixie.

My money's on 1 or 2, but 1 seems remarkably simple for Thorsby and if memory serves, Audrey now has all the money she needs for a bar.

4. The traditionalists have a copy of the diary too.
