Security Theater

Title Text: And what's so special about liner time, anyway? There's a lot of other modes of time you know!


Ah, the classic 'Trench Coat & Mustache' disguise. Still, not a bad look for Euodant heh

Taking Sellar’s lessons;
‘Inspector Euodant’
travels on to Egypt
whilst we hear Tarot rant.
Sometimes simple’s the best
avoiding confusion.
It took so many years
to reach that conclusion.
The race is on, it seems,
to the land of Pharoahs.
You’ll have to fly, my friends,
to keep him on his toes.
(Which he hasn’t got.)

I’m kinda with Todd and Aardvark.

Alright, that mana was protected again demons' sight, but you couldn't always be so sure of that, Great Kitsune... Again, Tarot paved you about your subjects, due to her much less time of wisdom and practice. Eheh, you're not wrong, Aardvark. So, Eudoant needed you as a sort of distraction for his move to Egypt, Steward, and probably it's there where somehow he'll use the third piece of coin. Oh, what a lacking airport security... That classic disguise always works perfectly, and it's so devious, too.

The last panel is hilarious! Thanks for the laugh.

I wish that the TSA was THAT easy for me last year when I was coming back from North Carolina after visiting my sister down there and spending some time in Myrtle Beach and Georgia. Because my ID was only a FEW days expired I couldn't use it to get on the plane. I ended up having to be searched and having my belongings searched as well as that of my parents to get on the plane. The TSA lost a picture my mother had and we only JUST got on the plane. -.-

Me, too ... and the moustache really doesn't distract from the absence of footwear. However, it appears Eudoant has stolen a march on the gabby gang.

So, turning the whole World into Animals wasn't the final plan, just a bonus for Demo-Stew while the BIGGER scope was being carried out...

So, is Eudoant really that weak in power atm? I figure they'd just snap their fingers and boom, Egypt.

Yea, Eudoant is very much limited: https://www.housepetscomic.com/comic/20 ... he-scenes/

Yeah, hooves and shoes can be tricky (don't even mention flip flops) . A cunning disguise eh?
Interesting to ses lots of ordinary people here.

Guess Demon Steward didn't want to deal with the airport since it is such a pain. So anybody who was there at that point didn't get changed. XD

I have the feeling that he knows using his power will immediately flag him to Heaven. Like Kit knew when he was summoned to Earth. He's only using low power stuff like a glamour.

What a friendly gentleman, I'm sure he's not a demon trying to take over earth.

Hit the "Third Man" theme music!

You think anybody will get the reference though?

You did! I'm happy enough there.

Well to be fair, I had to Google it before I got it.

It's definitely a glamour he's using. Notice NO-ONE'S looking at him, not even the guard? In fact, with the guard's exception, everyone's looking the other way.

Probably expecting to see the other three members of a Barber Shop Quartet.

Silly Weston! Of course nobody would be expecting to see that! He's not even DRESSED up in the shirt to be in one!

Hmmmm, good point. Maybe Rick's going more for the Snidely Whiplash - Dishonest John look.

Nya ha! Just gotta flash the 'stache!

Well of course he does. With a nice bicycle mustache like that he CAN'T be up to anything nefarious! At least most people would think.

You'd think you'd spot a demon, but you won't
As the guards seem to prove while meeting Eudoant
And GK's supposed to have 10B years of wisdom
But geez, all his logic here is dumb...

Security theater, is the the real word or the fox
Because power can't be contained, checked in a box
And when it breaks loose it tends to flee
And hide where even a god's eyes can't see.

I do hope that the airports in Babylon Gardens will have learned from just trusting someone's ID and will do their due diligence in the future.
