I'm going to guess that Vedika trying to read Goops will end with Vedika vomiting darkness.

With the attention brought to Vedka's uneasy relationship with her powers on the last page this seems like a natural transition to But thinking they could be useful against Goops.

Oh yikes I said But instead of Bud. Heh. Butt.

But anyway I don't we're going to get another member of the gang picked off so soon.

Following up killing a character with another too soon takes it from tragic to excessive. And at this point mildly farcical for the whole “oh no Undine’s friends are all dead again” angle since its been what, a couple weeks in-universe since the Team Alchemical thing?

I'm not saying immediately now. But Vedka's telepathy and potential as a way to counter Goops is the exact kind of thing that invites being picked off once that potential starts to be realized.

I get SD isn't Gunnerkrigg Court and this might mean peril for Vedika, but I'm hoping this works and that it boosts her self-confidence.

Goops comes to kill Vedika, who reads the goop girl's mind and makes fun of her until she runs away.

Vedika just brings up that embarrassing thing Goops did when she was 5, causing her to cringe so hard she winds up as a stain on the floor.

They do almost seem thematic. But who wants a team where everyone shares a color. https://www.sleeplessdomain.com/comic/chapter-17-page-10

A monochrome team would look pretty baller and they also have unique eyes and an emphasis on ranged attacks. Not to be a thematic elitist or anything, Zoe and Rue are a good duo. I just like a good matching color palette. Worst thing when playing a tag fighter is not being able to coordinate the group.

The theory is that Bud, Zoe and maybe Anemone are part of an unreleased thematic team - they're all grey flowers.

Also there's canonically only one other mahou school in the city, so her not even being able to say 'she goes to Founder's Blessing' makes it seem extra sus.

I missed that there was another mahou school. I assumed that they were a small enough percentage to all fit in one.

Gabby is already dead just off-panel.

Alternatively, Gabby has already defeated Goops just off-panel.
