Another Artist for my block list. Rape jokes are so funny. I love it when someone takes away someone else's bodily and psychological wellbeing, consent and uses them as metaphorical toilet paper for an unfunny joke.

I feel confident in promising you that no one were harmed in the making of this drawing.

Also: Manhattan Café would never rape anyone much less so any other Uma.

Your opinion may be unpopular (for some reason) but it is right. I wish you good luck on your endeavors 🫡.

for some reason

Couldn't possibly just read the replies, or talk to those people. No, it's just presumably "some" very nebulous "reason". Truly, it's an unsolvable mystery.
Why must you be so disingenuous? Are you just that afraid of having to getting into a conversation that makes it even more obvious that you're wrong? We all are sometimes, it's not that big a deal.

the reason is that rightoids love rape and will defend it to their dying breath even if it's someone joking about it. exhibit a: this comment section. exhibit b: you jumping in

So, the "rape" and "you gonna get raped" tags aren't too uncommon given the subject matter, so there is something that can be said to the popularity and tolerance of such content as being 'acceptable.' But the issue with this post here as a joke is that it doesn't really...do anything, regarding rape. Take post #9662972, there's a bunch of layers to it such as the lore and headcanon behavior of Umamusume, a device used to check female 'heat,' the mild worry indicated by a sweatdrop. Even if the eventual outcome is that Tachyon forces herself on trainer and he can't escape, the layers of context soften it and adds humor or 'outs' to imply subdued consequences. With this post, it's just a blunt implication that the viewer will be sexually assaulted, and nothing else.

TLDR: The art is arguably lazy as a joke for a sensitive topic.

Is the eye a reference to the Burrower Below from Fallen London, or the artist's take on the Foam Eyed Queen?

It's the eye seen on the Fire Giant's chest.
The Black Flame is derived from the Flame of Ruin worshipped by the Fire Giants.
Melina's eye is sealed and since it's a common theory that she is the Gloam Eyed Queen the artist gave her the same eye.
Also, since Marika is talking here about nightmares, the Fire incantations used by the Prophets are derived from the Fire Giant's Incantations and their lore is that they received visions of the Erdtree burning down this would be another connection.

If you see the diagram on the wall behind her, Marika is gonna stab her eye with a needle or even perform a little bit of lobotomy.

I find the escalation choice extra funny cause in canon the Tyranids would NOT run that fade. Necrons are the single WORST enemy they can go against.

- Can't absorb them for biomass or get adaptations out of them cause they're all mechanical.
- Gauss weaponry disintegrates matter so the Hive Mind's taking permanent losses for every killed bioform.
- "Shadow In The Warp" is worthless cause the Necrons are anti-Warp themselves, and can in turn shut down the Tyranids' psykers.

They've got everything to lose and nothing to gain fighting the Necrons, basically.

All this time we have been solely focused on Akiko, for very good reason. Recently I started wondering, even though we never get to see her what if Yuiichi's mother despite being a bit older is just as good looking and sexy as Akiko?

I bet Yuiichi's dad has been very tempted to suggest a two sister 3P to his wife on many occasions.
