Apart from getting to see Aspasia’s ‘milky orbs’, which was a nice surprise, I loved the collective expressions by all concerned in the last panel – at last, classic Delve!
You’ve got me interested here. You got me curious. Thnking back to that Academic Review strip from March, where we found out that she’d been expelled for her poor skills in seduction, and there was only one way now she could ever become an agent and it would not be pretty.
I mean if your world is basically a fantasy themed softcore porn, due to some of your “gods” starting out as horny nerds, going with the flow might be the best idea. Especially since pretending to like it is better than being made to like it.
Okay, so opposite end of the spectrum from what I was thinking. But still as effective. Achieves the same end. Big guys like this expect certain reactions, there is an expected rhythm to how it goes. Break that rhythm and they suddenly can’t cope. Or maybe it’s the “it’s about power, not sex” idea. Don’t give them the feeling of power via fear and they don’t want it anymore.
Ah yes, new delve, same wardrobe failures. 🙂
It really puts them off their stride when their target doesn’t get scared enough and acts like they have mental issues.

Ah yes, if Maud Pie was an elf assassin-in-training instead.
Markho back there thinking we’re totally f-ed right now.
That explains what classes she didn’t excell at.
And the look on the Doc’s face: “Did i do that?”
Roll for seduction…
What does “Scaroused” mean?
It means, she rolled a Natural 21 😛
The best summation I can come up with is it’s the “Fuck or Flight” response.
I think Bear Hand is going to be a recurring villain because not only did he get a name he also got a tag

Excellent use of ahegao. I approve.
She got an F again.
F for funny anyhow.
If this is “not so good” seduction… What is “bad” seduction than?
I think she did it better on exams, because she wasn’t recovering from getting clunked to the head back then. Little better.
“I think she’s mocking you”

If that is how Aspasia usually handles seductiveness i can sort of see why she struggled on her exams..
School of Bree alumni right there 😛
There is nothing wrong with her, or what she learned in training. She’s playing him.
I’m thinking she still needs time to reboot…
