Cora and crew are a work-hard play-hard type of team. They’ve all been in high-adrenaline life or death situations with each other, and Cora has definitely run loyalty with all the guys. They aren’t just hired hands, they’re… well, not a family, because they fuck. A lot. And there’s a fair bit of down time during FTL flight, and games get played.
To be clear, Maxima usually wears some kind of spray (or grit) that gives her a frosted look, to cut down on specularity and overall reflectiveness. She does not usually wear “advanced space” spray, due to a lack of access. The real reason for that is putting all that reflective crap all over her makes it take literally twice as long to draw her.
All I’ll tell you about the nurse’s outfit is that it does include two red crosses. They’re made out of tape, and I probably don’t need to tell you where they’re applied.
There was, expectedly, a lot of disagreement about whether or not co-ed showering and back-getting is cheating. The right answer, of course, is that’s the matter is entirely up to the people involved. One thing I didn’t see people taking much into consideration is the fact that Max is kind of used to getting away with a lot of stuff because of who she is. Everything from lots of little acts of insubordination, like taking umbrage with the fact that a lot of drill sergeant insult booties by calling them ladies. And then calling them out on it. “Oh, I see! Because the worst thing you can call a man is a woman! There’s nothing lower or worth less respect, is there? Well guess what? I’m not only stronger than any man on this base, I’m probably stronger than every man on this base!” Que base-wide tug of war contest. (Like I’ve said, Max has mellowed out a bit since her teen-early 20’s.) Up to other things that would probably have gotten a regular soldier demoted. Those sorts of incidents were few and far between, but when it comes right down to it, Maxima is a singular National Security Asset, and there are some people above other people who don’t care if she disobeyed an order when she 1) still accomplished the mission and 2) every other government is a little bit scared of her.
Now this isn’t to say that Max decided to not-really fool around but just show her butt to a large alien man and let him get her back, and did so maliciously, thinking, “I’m so hot and famous there’s no way anyone would be fool enough to dump me!” But there may be part of her psyche that tells her that things will go her way no matter what.
BTW, a SNERK is the opposite of a SNORT. A snort is just a short laugh-snore. A snerk is the same thing, but an exhale. Like a laugh-nose-blow. I thought I’d clarify because I’ve seen some comments in the distant past where people were asking.
Oh, look who it is in the vote incentive. The NSFW version is finally up at Patreon. Plus a bonus pic.
I think she would get in trouble for doing this. She’d mess up the… floor of the waterfall? Is that what it’s called? The receiving pool? No, probably not that. Anyway, she’d churn things up and cause a ton of weird erosion.
Since you might be wondering, Niagara Falls is about 165 feet high, so Babezilla obviously doesn’t have to be full sized. I’d say she’s about 175-180 feet tall here?
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
