So much potential for another Starfire solo comic

Tamaran culture, romantic and family relationships, the fate of other Tamaraneans, potential allies and enemies her life on Earth living normally...so much to do.

Yo ancestors so dumb they couldn’t pour divinity out of the y-goblet even if it had instructions on the bottom

(My opponent “The relief of howling winds passing, the sensation of squishing berries, and the longing of a home you never knew” then proceeds to blow me up with their mind)

Saladin, pointing to a strategy board and looking at Caiatl’s legionaries: Any questions before I go on from here?

Saladin:

Saladin: Great. (pinches bridge of his nose, then throws his hands out) I really understood that well.

I've been thinking about this all week. There are a lot of threads and puzzle pieces floating around in my head, but I can't put them together in a satisfying way.

The most likely scenario I have is this:

The OXA machine is likely derived from Vex influence, like the Device created by Ishtar. That would explain how the Vex have data on it in the first place and why both machines are practically identical. The Vex are pervasive, so it's likely that the Psions have encountered them while they were free, or Otzot used Vex tech when they rebuilt it after its destruction after their enslavement. Using the OXA machine to guide them and the Sol Divisive's research, Otzot seeks to reverse-engineer the mind-melding technology used by the Witness (successful attempt) and Maya (failed attempt) to become a God-Thought, a term used by Psions (or at least a Psion under Caiatl) when referring to powerful psychic leaders. We already know Psions are capable of merging minds and even bodies. Tazaroc, Niruul, and Ozletc did this when they formed Inotam during the Season of the Dawn, using an "ancient technique."

This makes the most sense, but I feel like there are holes that I can't see. Either way, Micah's Ghost missions are pulling loose threads and using them to start weaving a tapestry. I'm excited!

I will never be able to get the Robes of Detestation lore out of my head. Psions canonically snuggle one another and sleep in piles of pillows and blankets. Their homes are filled with trinkets and decorations. I will never stop thinking about it.
