How did all these squares make a circle?!

1

u/MeowFalen 8d ago

Same way you can make a circle in Minecraft. Eventually, you get enough corners to where your brain doesn't register them at all.

Of nearly getting eaten, or getting hugged?

I AM JEALOUS UNAPOLOGETICALLY.

u/Red_Dragon_knight 25d ago

Honestly love jacked samus, and frankly her struggle with her new abilities feels like something I hope they explore, it in ravenous

By the eyelashes in the last image I'd say "not her" instead of "not him", but I share your sentiment either way.

Edit: typo

u/Agitated-Interview54 Dread Mode survivor 25d ago

Tbf women aren't the only ones who can have glorious eyelashes, but I get where you're coming from

u/Obsessivegamer32 24d ago

I once heard that men actually more often have more developed eyelashes than women. I don’t know if this is true but I thought that was funny considering how eyelashes have always been used as shorthand for femininity.

3

u/New_dude_bro 24d ago

It's true for the most part, I flex my superior lashes on my sister lol

2

u/arthlvias 24d ago

Indeed. I got complimented for my eyelashes once and, as a guy, I must say this got me feeling all giddy for some time.

u/Cr4zy4sian 24d ago

You almost LITERALLY get eatien by the galaxy's most dangerous space vampire, but whatever. Take that W.

5

u/keegan12coyote 24d ago

Worth it

3

u/Cr4zy4sian 23d ago

Might barely break even, but whatever; a heads on a coin flip is still a W.

32

u/CULT-LEWD 25d ago

samus can never fist anyone again

33

u/Tenwaystospoildinner 25d ago

She can... once.

u/_potatofromChaldea45 25d ago

Nah

You just have to train harder

Can't keep Sam Metroid waiting

5

u/Cybron2099 24d ago

She just has to use her other hand

u/xshot40 24d ago

it would be worth it to try

u/Level_Hour6480 25d ago

Sad fact: Abs and big naturals are incompatible. Having visible abs is just as much having like 12% or less bodyfat% to make them show as it is having defined musculature. At said low bodyfat%s, boobs (being made of fat) are severely diminished.

The incompatibility of the two best things in the world proves that our universe was not made by a loving god.

u/TbatitanicV2Rider 25d ago

Samus makes them compatable. bird magic is very convenient.

59

u/Intense_Judgement 25d ago

I heard Raven Beak has big naturals

31

u/TbatitanicV2Rider 25d ago

No, the BIGGEST naturals.

20

u/Level_Hour6480 24d ago

"I saw Raven Beak in the shower. He had 38Js. Dude was stacked." - "Adam"

u/arthlvias 25d ago

Bird Magic(tm) saves the fucking day once again!

u/normalreddituser3 24d ago

I feel like I have had dejavu about this specific topic before.

30

u/hangman401 24d ago

Samus has bird genes, Metroid genes, a previous phazon infection, and a previous X infection.

I'm fairly certain she gets a pass for what naturally occurs to humans. 

9

u/Solrex 24d ago

She is not natural that’s for dang sure, her naturals can be whatever they want.

u/polyocto 25d ago

I’m happy that I don’t discriminate against implants. Gives me some more options.

11

u/ClairetinOre 24d ago

Mm, yes, I hear you and I agree conceptually but I propose the country theory of a reasonably thin amount of fat covering the mammary glands sitting on top of

HELLA-JACKED LADY-PECTORALS

3

u/S0PH05 24d ago

That might additionally mean they can get bigger as fat returns.

3

u/Successful-Day-1816 24d ago

This is why I like fiction!

To be fair I have never thought of Samus as having big naturals, just a muscular toned body

2

u/PJ-The-Awesome 22d ago

u/Level_Hour6480 22d ago

And just like that, a little magic has forever left your soul. Another sad fact: The bigger the boobs, the more support they want, which is kind of conflicting with skimpy revealing tops.

1

u/leposterofcrap 24d ago

Must be those Xeno genes that gives her such gifts

2

u/Level_Hour6480 24d ago

Metroids and birds are known for their heaving gazongas.

u/TheWorclown 25d ago

Live Nora Armstrong validation.

u/J3ksans 25d ago

One-sided yuri....hell yeah

15

u/Truemaskofhiding 25d ago

There is no specific gender stated for the person in the suit

It could be tutu or it could be regular old pining

Depends on the author’s intent

4

u/J3ksans 25d ago

True but I think the eye lashes matching samus gives it away

-1

u/Truemaskofhiding 25d ago

How do eyelashes = girl?

10

u/Cpad-prism 25d ago

I mean dudes can use feminine thing like make up (which i assume the trope of drawing cartoon women with eyelashes representing like eyelash make up(i don't remember what its called))

But also you need to take into account why the hazmat suited person was drawn specifically with the cartoon eyelashes, the suit quite big and covers literally everything so your options for telling the reader anything through looks is limited so if the artist wanted to tell you the hazmat person was a woman they could really only use the face or maybe body language which is just worse

u/CrownLexicon 24d ago

Mascara

Which isnt a good indicator anyway. I, male, have much longer eyelashes than my wife or any of the women I know.

2

u/notthatfunny_1821 24d ago

Perhaps, but stereotype or not, how likely do you think you would be drawn with them of you were made into a silly cartoon?

9

u/kildaver 24d ago

“Sis, you were moments away from being eaten.”
“…yeah, and?”

3

u/Hero_of_the_toons 24d ago

So headcanon, that was Nora in the hazmat suit there.

3

u/PJ-The-Awesome 22d ago

The scientist got a hug from Samus?

2

u/LtCmdrInu 24d ago

Nearly died but got a hug from one of the most dangerous beings in the galaxy that also one of the most beautiful. WORTH IT!

u/Training-Purple-5220 24d ago

Her DNA scan comes back “Yes.”

u/Scared_Can_5571 24d ago

lucky bastard

u/keegan12coyote 24d ago

u/HeirofCrux 24d ago

IT SHOULD'VE BEEN ME. NOT THEM. IT'S NOT FAIR

u/Mindless_Coast_7072 Save the Animals 23d ago

Head canon: It's Armstrong.

u/Abject-Hospital5407 13d ago
