705 | Booty Call

June 22, 2014 | 9:59 pm, by Pascalle Lepas

“Wah. My plan to enslave my best-friend and make him murder the love of his life failed.”
“It’s okay, BB. Come here.”

HEY! I announced it on twitter and facebook already, but Zap! is officially updating Monday & Thursday from now on!

THAT BEING SAID!!! Thursday’s page might be NSFW if you work in a super conservative environment, or your computer is in a public place. It’s not actually NSFW, but it has implications, and I just don’t want anyone to be embarrassed if they open the page up in front of their boss. So if you have concerns like that, wait to read it at home or check it out on your phone! xoxo

    Gunner’s looking a little lost…

  • Psithief

    Those straps join behind her neck but lay flat?
    Conclusion: Future fashion includes magic.

  • Batias

    Anything I can do for it to be NSFW? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  • draw nipples on your computer screen.

  • kajidono

    A cat is fine too.

  • sunphoenix

    YES!!!! “LOVE IS the ANSWER!!” :)

  • sunphoenix

    Who knew {I did}.. that Naveed was capable of such tenderness.. and empathy… :) Who knew Gunner could be so..vulnerable as to show {I knew}..how much he needed someone to just love him for who he is – flaws and all!

    This was terribly sweet! LOVED IT!!

  • you’re too sweet.

  • Crestlinger

    Gunner reloading.

  • NekoKari

    I know Zap and Renoa are the main love interest in the comic, but I just love Gunner and Naveed.

  • Speedy Marsh

    The straps don’t join. She just Velcro’s them to her shoulders.

  • Speedy Marsh

    There was a Gunner and a Naveed a long while back that I didn’t loathe.For their sake, i’m glad these two got together

  • sunphoenix

    I do too! :)
    Villains are not monolithic mustash twirling senseless miscreants… at least not the best written ones. Poeple do not get up one morning and decide “HA~ I’m going to fly in the face of all decency and just hurt people because.. grr ‘I’m gonna be a villain now.. bwahahaha!”

    No. People become called villain from a series of choices and actions.. some made in ignorance some made fully aware of the consequences… some wholly unexpected that drive them down the slow {or not so slow – depending upon the circumstances} spiral of.step by painful step down the path to evil! It is not all at once .. but through the slow degrade of what the person views as right an wrong based upon the trials life inflicts upon them. But they are still people with loves and hates, hopes and fears.

    “Tis too much proved– that with devotion’s visage, and pious action, we do sugar o’er the Devil himself!”

    I think the BEST villains do indeed show love for the important people and things in their lives. The BEST villains are not just mindless killing monsters… but people who have due to the events in life found themselves where they think they must be.. but are still feeling beings who felt they had no choice but to follow the path…less traveled by!

    I also think Gunner and Naveed make a great romantic story of their own that despite their wicked and cruel ways of dealing with the universe to “Set it Right” as they see it should be..still they do feel genuine love for each other that is tender and every bit as lovely as any hero and his maiden fair! And I admit.. I do hope for Gunner and Naveed’s happiness..just as much as I do for Zap and Renoa! {sad tears..}

  • safyrejet

    Panel 2, I was wondering at first how she could possibly sleep in such an awkward position with her legs spread so far apart and my what a big foot you have…oh, yeah, tail.

    I bet Gunner’s also sad about his hair cut.

  • Astralfury

    Will Thursday imply…Heavy Petting? ;)

  • cu

    Never let unimportant details like cloth physics get in the way of massive catboobs furry fanservice.

  • Amanda

    Huh. I always figured her as a nekkid sleeper.

    So what are the odds that in the end Gunner just gives up and goes to live in adorableness with Naveed?

  • Berserk Knight

    I hate you Zap, for cutting Gunner’s hair short. >:(

  • sunphoenix

    We can hope! “LOVE IS the Answer!” :)

    but in the words of Schmendrick the Magician, “Men don’t always know when their happy…”

  • sunphoenix

    Oh, and Naveed IS naked.. that’s a shear gown..it take only one button behind her neck on the strap.. and it would fall completely off her. Her gown is sensuous and classy. To me shows a self-possession of womanly dignity that is interesting to find in such a killer.. she like soft sexy clothing.. and has a small since of modesty. speaks an interesting tone for someone who is so outwardly violent.

  • sunphoenix

    And.. {yeah.. can’t stop talking about this page..hehe}.. I think Booty Call is the wrong name for this page.

    Look at Gunner’s expression.. he is almost in a blush. His stance his expression it not that of a cock-sure man seeking some latenight intimate action… no. He looks like a man with a lot on his mind.. who is feeling the wight of his life’s deeds and is not pleased with himself or the results of his actions. Not contrite.. but certainly in emotional doubt.. troubled about the future.

    Gunner did not seduce Naveed this time.. gone is his leading and teasing words meant to pull her close and push her away at the same time. no here is a man uncertain about his needs..perhaps even embarrassed to face the fact he needs this woman to find solace from whatever is troubling his thoughts.

    This is NOT a Booty Call.

    Naveed’s reaction is also telling!

    In cell 5, that is not lust or fear in her eyes…but surprise and concern… she can see his expression and, like most women, she immediately can tell when there is something troubling the man in her life.

    “What is it?”

    And her reaction? Not the “Drama Mama” of before, no a conscious deliberate show of affection – she gently takes Gunner in her arms to comfort him.. her kiss is not for herself.. FOR ONCE.. Naveed is actually showing not lust but genuine love, and affection for someone else … expecting nothing in return.

    NAVEED takes Gunner to her bed to love him..without question, without needing answers…

    “What is it?”; “LOVE is the ANSWER!”

    I think that would make a better name for this page. :)

  • Thursday is the morning after. :P

  • Astralfury

    Find me one cat that doesn’t also like being stroked in the morning ;)

  • Lady Courage

    I just laughed way too hard at the bonus dialog.

    AND YAY MORE UPDATES!!!!

  • I wonder… if Gunner was given the choice to drop his plans and go retire somewhere in peace, would he take it at this point? I feel like the answer is no and this is his ‘farewell’ night to Naveed.

  • svartalf

    I don’t think Naveed would choose that path either.

  • You will hate Gunner the most by the end of this scene.

  • hahaha.

  • yeah

    MORE LIKE UNLOADING AMIRITE

  • Speedy Marsh

    If only he had cut it 3 feet shorter, it would have prevented all the upcoming grief.

  • Speedy Marsh

    Ditto. Love Thursday updates!
    *Snoopy happy dance*

  • sunphoenix

    OH Gods!?! He’s.. not gonna hurt Naveed .. is he?

  • Speedy Marsh

    I’m afraid that you might be right – really, really right. You might want to say goodbye to Naveed while you still have a chance.

    I think Gunner is ashamed of his relationship with Naveed, a member of a lower species. All species are lower species. The only two people who aren’t from a lower species turned on him, so everyone, everywhere is fair game.

    Yeesh! Trying to get inside Gunner’s head is scary. I guess I just want to figure out the worst that can happen, so it won’t be so shocking when it happens.

  • Speedy Marsh

    I’m worried that if he has any feelings left for her, he’s not gonna want her to see what he does next. The best we can probably hope for is that he’ll dump her, and leave her behind.

  • mri_kel

    I will be so sad if there are no babies to show from all this love. It would just deprive the universe of something better yet to be born.

  • Psiberkiwi

    How can you tell how it lies? Her hair hides where the join is.

  • Psiberkiwi

    Shades of my (late) father – any time he was giving us kids a haircut, he would offer to take it off at our necks… :)

  • Speedy Marsh

    Yeah. Plus, this chapter is prohably gonna be pretty rough. Babies would be a good way to give the story a happy ending.

  • Nico

    I am saving this entire page for…reasons…

  • Man, I have a whole little art booklet of them doing makeout kissy romantic things because people said they wanted it and then only ever sold like ten! http://www.zapcomic.com/zap-store/

    I STILL HAVE THEM.

  • sunphoenix

    I’f I’m lucky.. in th enext two weeks.. I’ll be buyingh one of those..lol!

  • Switch

    It could be a low heavy knot, like counterweight so it doesn’t have to be tied at her neck? Although that doesn’t seem comfortable. :/

  • safyrejet

    I got one of those 10.

  • Astralfury

    “I drew this *for the fans*…and then…kept them all, because reasons” Not buying the story, Pascalle! :P

  • Ori Klein

    Huh!?!?

    This page makes no sense to me.
    “What is it?”??? Oh gee, his grandiose plan failed. You know, you were there.
    Weren’t they in the middle of a big battle? and mobilization of the psy-corps?
    So…what? They just decided to call it a night and postponed everything?
    “Hey guys, take five, it was just a drill, we’ve decided to make the real invasion come tomorrow.”

    I dun even…

  • Drunken Nordmann

    Half-naked people are already NSFW – at least in most jobs I know.

  • Drunken Nordmann

    That does not bode well.

  • yeah, it for sure depends on your job. I just wanted to give people a heads up because there’s a lot of skin.

  • I can see Naveed going down with Gunner. “At least we’ll be together.”

  • chrisbrady

    I STILL HAVE THE BOOK!
