Day 28 2 07

The land whale walked back out into the shallows and slid underneath the water and rolled into the sandy bottom of the cove. For a few moments a sandy could completely enveloped the massive creature. It rolled around in the sand, pushing itself a little deeper until the water mostly covered it. It continued rolling, flailing its many fins and tail into the water, sending water high into the air. Lexx watched, waiting tensely for an attack at any moment. He flew high enough away that he was confident he could evade any attack, but he wanted to be prepared for it. Lexx couldn’t bring himself to attack the creature. It just didn’t feel right. Time passed, and the whale settled into laying in the water on its side, idly flipping its tail out of the water to send a wave of water splashing over its body. What kind of fight is this? Lexx hovered a little closer. Do I just wait for to attack me? It’s just … The land whale for all appearances, looked to be taking a nap instead of participating in a battle. … laying there.

  1. Easiest gaunlet ever

  2. Hrm. Preparing a big attack? Trying to trick him into attacking first so it can counter? Trying to throw the fight on purpose?

  3. …So this dice is basically a giant behemoth with the mind of Zeta? How wonderfully derpy it looks there. I hope Lexx can stretch this out.

  4. A sneaky trick. He is lying on the ground grabbing his fin in the hopes of Lexx getting handed a red card and being disqualified in this round.

    P.S. There is a Warren Worthington on the phone saying something about copyright infringement.

  5. It’s just a big distraction from the main event.

  6. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaw….. It’s tricksy!

  7. I think it’s gone and beached itself. Poor land whale’s to heavy for land.

  8. Is it OK to run out the clock?

  9. Must be one of Riley’s buddies, stalling for time.

  10. Land Whale is loafing around! Land Whale uses Rest.

  11. Definitely stalling, with such enduring injustices it’s impossible not to come across allies who pretend to be enemies.

  12. Land whale used Rest. It’s.. super effective?

  13. This could actually backfire on lexx, even he needs some pretend fighting so he can fake roll, this way he can’t pretend to have rolled multiple times before meeting the real threats.

  14. On the other hand, if he has a particularly tricky rules lawyer on his team, he might get the Gauntlet thrown out or modified.

    “Can we call time to consult the refs?”

    1. the rules are survive 24hrs the other thing being the challenger Lexx can’t role first, so if someone doesn’t role or takes a long while to do so, and it isn’t Lexx, on the assumption that those competing in the gauntlet want the glory of defeating him, rather than have their game undergo some serious legal scrutiny.

  15. Sorry if this gets posted twice, my phone was acting all weird the first time. It looks to me as though Mr. Landwhale here is beached. Lucky for Lexx if so, but poor giant whale critter, he looks to be in so much pain.

  16. If Chill does something “wacky” and throws off the fight we’ve been waiting three? four? years to see, I will just…give up on this comic forever and I’ve been patient for years now.

    1. I promise that will not happen. Chill is entirely a spectator and while impulsive with her mouth, doesn’t take action unless she has to. It takes a lot of energy… and it’s hot.

  17. One wonders if the landWhale has a counter based battlestyle… Or it’s mistaken Lexx for a gull and is laying in wait waiting for him to show up xD

  18. Looks like it just wants its tummy skritched…

    1. Yes, scratch the land whale’s tummy!
