This is a good idea so I will do it.

If you have read this post and also page one, here are those further instructions: post your fave IH moments aw yes.

SECESSION IS FUTILE

I liked the part where Pasqualo's mom uses her cyborg abilities to fix the gas pump, which Ally immediately uses to douse her and set her on fire.

Hey so that strip, plotchat, is that first panel snake bitch accepting that she's lower on the totem pole and no longer has a slave? At least till panel 6 when that problem's resolved with a new slave.

In the last frame you can see from the bandage that the dad shot himself (like he said he would much earlier after Ally and Pasq left) and failed.

I think she willingly chose to be his servant, because she's all star struck about Pasq.

Yeah but it seems like she's deferring to Aurora now, too, instead of making her build cars. I guess that's what came of the big manga reveal incident.

I think she gets that they were both responsible, so it would be like honoring both a king and his queen or something. Still waiting to see how they all react to Katie...

Trissh understood Pasqualo was trying to depict the event that triggered the end of the human world, and the harbinger of the monster age, something she and her people (if any) have been waiting for a long time, presumably. That would explain her instant shift in allegiance- Pasqualo is Monster Jesus.

Genius. Billionaire. Playboy. Philanthropist.

Going along with what Kermit said, Trisssh sees Pasqualo as a god because he created this mess. She holds Aurora up as well because she helped Pasqualo do it. If Pas is the Jesus of this story, Aurora is certainly the Mary figure in Trisssh's mind, ignoring the fact that Aurora is probably outright God or another heavenly being. I don't really see outright devotion to Aurora on Trisssh's part but there is definitely reverence and possibly protectionism due to the sacred symbolism of the dry erase board's iconography.

That or fear of the whole 'ending you with a song because you made her your slave and bragged about banging her boyfriend and making her clean up the mess' aspect of their relationship.

Aurora's face when Trisssh talked about ravishing Pascalo is amazing. It's impossible to tell if she is just faltering under Trissh's weight, suppressing anger towards Trisssh, or suppressing laughter because of Trisssh's immense arrogance Aurora is, y'know, God. Not exactly the sort to worry about a rival. It's interesting that the next immediate strip is Aurora letting Trisssh in on the joke.

Pasqualo bitches about it being his fault but that's just because he's a big lame sadbrains baby. Those panels combined show that it actually WAS his fault.

Aurora has the power to make thought reality. But she doesn't seem to do it on her own, she needs someone elses' head to pull poo poo out of. By recommending the gruesome method of dealing with nervousness, he became the catalyst of the reaction that doomed the world. He's shinji pretty much.

Whatever abilities Aurora have pretty much been linked to the wants of other people. Almost like she's a genie in that she can do what other people want done but can't directly influence the world around her (without causing the apocalypse). All Pasqualo wanted was for her to sing, too bad the world couldn't handle it.

I dunno about that, P-Q completely discarded his broken heart on the ground after the snake bitch showdown and Aurora just showed up to revive it on her own account. Typing this out I wonder if it's symbolism.

Nah its actually quite a bit more cool because there's at least some level of thought and planning behind it. poo poo doesn't have to be a masterstroke to add a bit of patina to the juvenile humor.

I think that the symbolism of it is huge but can we really say that she didn't show back up because Pasqualo wants to see her again? She obviously wants to be here and see Pas but I never said she couldn't have her own wants and needs. Pas means a lot to her and it feels like her coming back is an attempt to apologize for getting caught up in the moment and to be with the dude she loves. He is still tits out in love since he turned down Trisssh and has spoken about how he "still has a girlfriend." He obviously knows that he's gonna see her again, whether through blind faith in her or outright stupidity.
