Grrl Power #595 – Here’s mud in your thong
I’m not sure what the girls thought would happen, like punitive PT is something troops are trusted to self-report on. “Sure, I totally ran 20 laps around the base. Don’t worry about where I got the venti macchiato.” I guess they thought they had more time to mess with Math before Maxima showed up. More likely they didn’t expect the base commander to oversee them. They probably thought a Sergeant would do it, but Maxima isn’t all that excited about standing around waiting for ARC-Light to determine their next move, so why not catch some fun in the sun in the meantime.
This is the second half of the previous page. It’s really just more of the same joke. I had toyed with the idea of either making this a double page or trying to cram everything from both these pages into one. I’m trying to avoid that lately though. Either way, this was the page I was working on over Xmas break, so I wound up splitting it so I could spend a little time with the family and still keep up with the schedule. So enjoy this rare 3-panel Grrl Power comic. I’m sure it’s something you can all tell your grandchildren about one day.
This page sadly ends the short cheesecake tear I got on there for a bit, so if you’re worried about checking the comic at work, the next page boringly has everyone fully clothed. Although for balance, at some point I should do a page or two of the guys in the shower/locker room. Not quite yet though. There’s plot to get to.
BTW, Jiggawatt isn’t doing some weird version of the mud crawl without the barbed wire on top, she just fell off the monkey bars cause… I don’t know, they were slippery with morning dew still? It was either that or have her legs dangling from the top of the panel, and given the choice between drawing that or a lady covered in mud, well, come on.

*just cackles!*
The perfume of preference, for discerning witches and warlocks.
*ahems and coughs and cricks her neck…* EEEEEEEEHEEEHEEHEEEHEEEHEEEEEEEE!!!! Bless her soul. She passed away back I think in december. :) I met her looooong ago at a convention where she just bust out that laugh and I was across the hall and like, instant fangirled. >.> Back when I wasn’t so nucking futz. But seeing these girls get their comeuppance like this…well, I had to. >.>!
now the real question is leon recording maths meltdown for use later?
It will be a lot harder to keep a grip on those monkey-bars with her hands covered in mud.
I think some of our more… impressionable … readers might be having a similar issue.
Why did Maxima let Xochi keep her bra? Getting softhearted?
Well the Lieutenant Colonel did threaten to escalate their punishment to ‘running the obstacle course in their skivvies’ if they infringed her orders. In that case it would have been for not falling in fast enough. In this case it was for failing to run the obstacle course (and playing practical jokes) whilst they were unsupervised. Without which they would have been running it in fatigues.
So Maxima is just being consistent. Whilst it is fully within her rights to escalate the additional punishment (their infringements being greater than that of merely being tardy falling in), there may yet be more, to follow (such as running it until dawn instead of sunset).
However Maxima does know the distinction between merely embarrassing and inconvenient NJP and cruel and unusual punishment (of a degrading nature). Nude punshments being well established as falling within that category.
No, they are running it in their skivvies (which is an odd term, it’s like ‘thong’, two different articles of clothing depending on where you are from) because they didn’t “fall in” fast enough (which is unfair, as doubt any of the trio could ‘fall in’ in 30 seconds), having to do it until they get under four minutes is the additional punishment for what they did to Math
Whilst we can speculate on how fast they fell in, we do not know for sure. But I will grant that they were taunting Math in their underwear. With Jabberwokky therefore being in a lesser state of dress than when they were brawling in the shower.
So the odds are definitely in favour of your interpretation.
*wags tail in concession*
o_O Jabbs wasn’t involved! And well, if they had to run in their ‘skivvies’, t-shirt’s are not required
Thanks for pointing that out. For Jabberwokky read Jiggawatt.
The way my mental ‘filing system’ * works those two names are practically synonymous. Even with you saying, she wasn’t there, I was looking at this page and thinking ‘yes she was there she is right in front of us now!’
Expect me to mix them up again in the future. Anytime I don’t check the Who’s Who after every post.
* More like a lottery drum, dispensing random names, in honesty.
No worries :D
Knew who you meant though :P
Thank god that Maxima didn’t make them clean the canteen in their under garments…!
Also be glad that Archon doesn’t share their base with a bunch of military chaplains assistants in training.
Why? Not all religions have any kind of chastity requirement from their clergy, and a military chaplain can be of (almost) any religion. Or at least the most mainstream ones.
Oh please tell me that there are Jedi chaplains in the US military!
I do know a number of soldiers put “Jedi” on their dog tags.
“Dog” would be fun. Although that may be taken as a typo.
Someone please explain to me why the girls have dirt & mud on the recesses of heir bodies, but not on the curves… kind of the opposite of what would happen, yes?
Probably. But there are circumstances that would explain that. For a start there is not just mud there, we can see grass. A lot more than there is mud in fact. Feet covered in mud are more slippery though, so even out of the mud bath they can be taking falls. Then the mud in the recesses makes sense, as even sliding on grass will not wipe that off!
Naturally Maxima will have filled the mud baths with [announcer’s voice] Machina Industry’s Mud-Guaranteed-To-Stick-In-Every-Crevasse. [deeper voice] It does what it says on the tin!
They must have oiled up before starting the course. Which explains why Jigs fell off of the monkey bars, and why Xo is finding it harder to climb when she has access to her toes.
Logic!
+1
If you mean with Brooke: look at where her hands are, that is why her bouncies are ‘clean’
As for Vahriah, maybe she just hasn’t ‘fallen in’ yet :P
Next time they misbehave,Maxima should make them run the track course buck ass nude in below zero weather…!
+2
And for that to happen in the middle of summer, Varia is going to have to have a lot more skin to skin contact with Brook. In order to generate the needed amount of cooling, of course. All in the name of discipline!
I’m talking if this occurred in the middle of winter…!
It sounds like you hate discipline!
Mmm. I can see where I got my subliminal ‘angel of doom’ interpretation for panel 2 from. Panel 1. Although clearly just shadows from the miscreants’ heads, nonetheless they do form what appears to be a pair of outstretched wings.
When interpreted by the ancestral tiny mammal part of my brain anyhow. Rather like a roaring dragon, that could spell doom!
For someone who outwardly objects to objectification, Maxi sure likes to expose as much of her golden fleshie bits as she can…
I see her face, neck, arms, and a slight mid-riff. That is basic casual. I don’t see how that counts as exposing much flesh in a way she could be objectified unless the person was as horny as Math; but hey, there are men who would be turned on by a woman wearing a bag…hell, the reason table cloths exist is because some men found the table legs arousing so they put a skirt on the table.
Dress to be comfortable *within reason*, so long as you aren’t dressing like Vampirella or Sean Connery in Zardoz (the movie I bring up everytime he or anyone else whines about LoEG)
It was a joke, obviously a bad one
If anything, she’s probably showing off her muscles. We already know she trains specifically to appear more macho, so why not make the most of that?
If I had muscles like that I would surely like to show them.
I am rather surprised that this hasn’t attracted Dabbler like a caffeinated moth to a flame. Unless maybe there’s an adult industry convention in town mucking up her pornsense.
There is nothing for her to sense. The three being punished are suffering, rather than being aroused. And Maxima is not being turned on by this. Plus she went to the length of chaining off the entrance to the training course, so there are no other witnesses who might get aroused.
Now if there was an imp, who fed off petty suffering, his schadenfreude sense would be tingling. But, unless any of the three are lesbian or bi, and are secretly getting off on this, then this would be a desert for Dabbler (as in the hot arid place – not a custard and whipped cream trifle).
There’s Math for her to sense, i mean he is DEFINITELY Lusting right about now… well maybe a few minutes ago before Max showed up… but, anyways, seeing as he gets to be turned on by ANY female at ANY time… Dabbler might just be tired of his lusty input after a while and end up ignoring him. and that’s why she isn’t there?
Sure Math will be radiating snack to Dabbler, but he is not here. They are in the middle of a grassy field. Whereas Math is beh-ind the access door, which is unlikely to be within earshot of this spot.
In sight of it, granted, as their improvisations would presumably be playing on things which should be visible from the vicinity of the door.
This my friends is a winner, I laughed so hard I actually started gagging and choking because I was taking a drink when I started reading the last two pages and of course the liquid just had to go down the wrong pipe when the shock factor hit, I’ll get you for that!!!!! (half jokingly)
