Maybe three quarters? (And Meji, the voice of reason again!)

Who could have forseen this?

Also: Third panel calls for its text to be edited into something more entertaining. Will contemplate possibilities later.


...dammit, I was sure I had a macro that said that...

So... If Ian loses consciousness while healing someone, what happens to them? Are they half healed or just dead because all their internal bits no longer connect to their other internal bits?

I was wondering the same thing myself.

Followup question: what reaction will everyone else have (hell, what reaction will Ian have) if it turns out that the Great Healer killed someone because he worked himself too hard?

All in all though, I doubt that's where this is going. Ian passed out while healing Leah and she still got mostly healed (besides the eyesight being not quite perfect). So I think the answer is just "partly healed"... though who knows, this could be a different case. He could have managed to patch Leah up in time before passing out.

Starting to see a pattern here. This guy 'avalanches'. He literally works until he drops. There is no gradual tapering off of manna here, when the tank's empty, it's bone dry and he has no clue as to when that's gonna happen. You'd think that the near-crash over Salvus would have given them both the first clue (Meji saved both their lives there and Meji is at least thinking about it).

Okay Ian is no longer just a do-gooder who does not know his limits. He is a self destructive heroic type trying to go out in a blaze of glory. He has limits and he knows it, he just refuses to acknowledge them.

I don't mean this in an anyway positive way either.

Hey, it worked for the Saiyans in Dragonball Z - keep training until you are almost dead, then you recover and come back stronger than before.

Seriously, this burnout is probably his means of penance for not being able to help his sister and mother before they died.

This is an extreme overreaction to the ideal of personal failure.

Ian's going to plunge into this lifestyle, and once it doesn't work, he's going to go "batshit crazy".

Au revoir, Ian...you will be remembered first as a saint and then as a devil.

Oh, for Pete's sake, its only his first day as a conduit of infinite divine healing power. Give him a chance to work out a program. In any event, given the only way to get to Ian's desolate, "the Hill have Eyes" healing location is by foot or cart, he's going to run out of patients pretty quickly. It's not like they can catch him on the Net and zip down there in their Land Rovers.

I'll let someone else elaborate on what Leah was going to communicate to Riley after their fadeout.

I imagine it was something like, "Riley...Ian's powers aren't here for cosmetic surgery."

LONG PAUSE

Leah just wears the pants in that relationship.

Leah wears the pants, Riley J-J-J-JAMS IT IN! They're both girls, so girlfriend is accurate for both of them.

I'm quite sure that it's some kind of sign of armageddon when that happens.

Ah gender such a fun thing there was one culture that had 7 distincts ones on a scale of male to female once apparently. I think Leah's going to make a comment about loving Riley the way she is after the fade out.

Still I am rather surprised Ian's exhausting himself healing strangers instead of trying to maximize his power to raise his sister from the dead. Afterall that was what the last person to try to tap into a gods power had in mind so it may be theoretically possible.

The chick is ashes. I figure, at this stage of decomposition, a few extra days in the ground isn't going to make the job any harder or easier. It will, however, give Ian a chance to learn more about his powers and halfelf biology in general. This way, if he does go ahead and try to bring her back, he will get the organs on the inside... quite unlike Edward motherfucking Elric.

LOL... that little bitch couldn't spell his way out of a paper sack... of course he'd probably turn it into a monster of some sort...

Ok that was just silly...

Why am I still typing...
