Kalghur has a hell of a character witness, at least. And she does have a point: Whatever the Baxxid think about violence, a) The guy FAFOed around with a giant boneworm, and b) he was part of a plague of thieves hitting the marketplace. Think they'll be so casual next time they see a Baxxid guard around? From the merchants' perspective, Kalghur did them all a HUGE favor.
Oh, it'd be hilarious if after all the Baxxid angst about violating the violence taboo toward humans, the actual humans gather a mob to... throw Kalghur a party in gratitude for finally putting an end to the thief problem in the merchant's square. How about that for messing with their minds? 🤣
Now SHE is an absolute legend. <3<3<3

If Kalgkur was around to hear this, he'd be so happy to hear that Nell does not think any less of him and understands that while it was an accident on his part, she's thankful that he did it to protect her, and even if it was extrajudicial on his part, he's rid the town of a repeat offender thief, and it would make many think twice about stealing from now on!
Please let Kalgkur live...
Please let Kalgkur live...
The only threat she could realistically carry out: vandalism.
Think about it, that'd be like shaving a cock into someone's hair, or drawing a cock on their face with permanent marker that somehow takes months to fade away.
Never take the threats of a smith lightly, they pummel metal for a living.

Hmmm.
I see Nell having a very short conversation with Elder Varakes, and getting her way. And I see Nell standing at Kalgur's side during his test.
And finally, I envision Nell wearing a gold sash with a red and blue stripe: a human who is a True Friend and Companion to the Baxxid.

Oh my god yes! I was hoping for THIS kinda crazy not to mention this is a very interesting time for the Baxxid. Facing the very human concept of humans accepting some level of.....correct times to go ham on someone. Also dun fuck with humans or the revenge always comes down to dicks being involved in the plot.
Yeah... Kalgkur's stream of consciousness through the incident seemed familiar to me. I've been in accidents, and I've had anger put my consciousness in the passenger seat, and the thought process of that impalement read exactly like an accident; trying to scrabble for control over something it's too late to prevent. If that was Nell's impression, then I'm inclined to believe it, even if Kalgkur doesn't. I'm guessing he didn't feel he had the right to raise that point in his defence, but then again maybe this is less about justice than it is about a 'reformed' apex predator getting a taste of blood. Protocols or not, I do hope he can enter this trial knowing that Nell's horror was for him, not of him.
She has the drive, she has the tools, do not TEST this woman or upon you a thousand etched cocks she may bestow!
I liked this character before, now I adore her. And how she refers to dear Klagkur as "Sweet Boy" after the accidental evisceration? She was in the potential splash zone for it! Oh I love this, this isn't "good" storytelling, this is Lore-Master levels of story.

Heya, OOPs fans! I'm here to remind you yet again that there's a place called "Top Web Comics" https://www.topwebcomics.com/?home=3 that compiles comics from various places. There's a bunch of cool stuff there. They have monthly votes, so you can support OOPs there. You can vote once a day per device, so your PC, laptop, tablet, phone, etc.
I've noticed that you can sometimes even get in extra votes from different IP addresses, or if you're disconnected from your IP and open up again later.
It closed out last month at 1019 votes and 40th place. It's currently at 719 votes and 36th place. The highest it's reached is 36th place, and the top vote getters seem to end up with something close to 20,000 votes.
Vote early, vote often! Help OOPs get noticed!

iirc Val Salia is a merchant town/trade center or something similar, so I was wondering what the reaction to this would be. I can't imagine a drunk thief is particularly high in the social ladder, also I got the feeling that the Baxxids care more for human life than the humans themselves do.
So far we've only gotten two human reactions from this incident and both were not "fear the baxxid" reactions. Gotta wonder if the the rest of the humans will be afraid or will just be like "well that happened I guess" *moves on with their day*

It seems Baxxids are not used to aggression so much - they seem endlessly self-conscious of being seen as murder worms, but fine with being an intimidating presence at times - but not proud of it.
They are delightfully timid, gentle and not emotionally prepared of the threat of a hundred dicks.

Nell's creative and lewd threat is like something Moist Critikal would say. Good to see she had recognized it as an accident and is sticking up for Kalgkur. I feel like if he had killed that guy and immediately went back to having a conversation like it was nothing, then maybe thing's would've turned out different.
Also, I'm definetly on board with everyone else. Those expressions on the last two panels are absolutely perfect. I especially love how the dark one holds his claws up as if to say "not my faceplate!" I don't believe I've said it myself yet, but you certainly are good at capturing multiple expressions from creatures that cannot physically move their facial features.

The multiple non-human peoples you have created are amazingly easy to imagine. Their reactions, cultures, etc, while alien, are so deep and complex.
It's clear you've been working a long, long time on this, before you ever put pencil to paper, even.
No facial expressions, but the body language is pure shock and embarrassment.

Logic vs Life/Loyalty/Love
Baxid are so keen on discarding their "Raw" emotions in pursuit of "Logic" but in the end keep trying to abandon what they actually are, so when they have breaks in this new way of thinking and trying to "Forget tradition exists" it seems unweildy or uncouth.
Least that's what I've been getting at the comic as it progresses, along with prior backstory or comic pages such as "Baxid used to be terrifying nomads till humbled by human's ingenuity" "While it's polite to wish me with unblunted claws good hunting, never say this in "Polite" baxid society" "Oh god why can't you just let us drink the sun in peace why are you so dead set on emotional attachments?" "Watching you create art is amazing, something I could never do given that all I see is materials, but you see magic"
To me just seems to be in the direction of "Baxid try to escape their old past but become shells of what they were" when so far Kalg seems to be the mix of old and new traditions, a proper balance per say

The brilliant and captivating story aside,
I must applaud you for paying such close attention
to the individual baxxid bone crest configuration!
Nell's threat may be scandalously intimidating,
but I can absolutely see the emergence
of grooving pattern-etching parlors
servicing the baxxid who appreciate
a more ornate texture of their face plates
and murderclaws.
And who knows? Perhaps the complementary
mosaic pattern of human phalluses
will take that market by storm
at one point...
Poor Kalgkur! Forced to sulk noticeably despite belonging to a species
who embrace and embody sulking, skulking and stalking
as their body language base...
The mortified guards are the heart of hilarity!
Their internal panicked shrieks of outrage
remind me of Kassen's reaction
in final panel of this page.

A bit of an interview-mode aside: do you own your current stratospheric level of popularity
and the size of your maniacally loyal and inquisitive audience,
or are you reeling from the pressure that such interest brings?
Are you perhaps hungry for more popularity power,
and only view this current metrics of recognition
as a ramp towards the eventual ascension
to an even greater reach of readership?

NeeeeEEEEEeellllll! XD <3 Ahhhhhh I squeed!
Also, the CULTURE SHOCK, so I LOL'ed.
So much going on here with this little chapter! Nell is a fine example of how so many Val Salians seem ... hardened to the harsher aspects of life. Well, the human residents, at least. Also, how cosmopolitan they are. And how honey badger. Getting all up in an apex predator's face, haha. Imagine a human woman telling off a fifty foot crocodile.
I'm also glad for a little more context regarding the thief. Before this page, we only had two frames to judge the poor bastard. Common dress, no outstanding features. We can't see his face in the first frame. Second frame, his expression is ... determined, but also wide-eyed, as though he just realized how badly he screwed up, stealing something so valuable in plain sight of a Baxxid guard. Rookie mistake. Definitely not a professional. But he doesn't back out of his larceny, even when faced with such a threat. That suggests either foolhardiness or desperation. If it's the former, well, that's certainly one way to win the Darwin award. But if it's the latter, one has to wonder about the motive and the circumstances.
Stealing is bad, don't get me wrong. But based on available data surrounding the incident, I have doubts that the thief's actions warranted the death penalty. It's reassuring to hear testimony from Nell about how she believes the Darwin award was deserved.
Then again, Nell may be a bit biased. <3
