Once she couldn't move she couldn't spread pollution anywhere else.

Permalink

She could have died.

Permalink

...well, she didn't.

Permalink

Why didn't she get away from the presumed red and call the police sooner instead of engaging in vigilante violence?

Permalink

It - she - if she had been a red, the hypothetical red would have spread pollution more places!

Permalink

What would she have done if her victim had been able to get her implement of violence away from her?

Permalink

Run away in case it touched her!

Permalink

Wouldn't that have been a reasonable first recourse? Their studies of Amentan culture suggest that if her victim had been a plumber instead of a queen she would have had to burn the broom.

Permalink

Yes, she would have had to get rid of the broom. But hiring cleaning crews to deal with pollution is expensive too and they charge by the square foot.

Permalink

If her victim had been a red, and she had killed her by accident, would she have expected to face legal consequences for this?

Permalink

She'd probably have had to sit an interview about it but unless the judge really had it in for her or legitimately thought she was responsible for dragging a red to the location in the first place not really.

Permalink

They apologize for not having a more legible judiciary process for her to interact with but their systems were not set up with aliens in mind and they are having trouble adjusting on the fly. Also, she's going to be in prison for at least a while longer. On the bright side, she's definitely not going to be executed.

Permalink

Well, that's something, she guesses.

Permalink

...They bring in an adorable one-Amentan-year-old who insisted very loudly on meeting the person who hurt his mommy.

Permalink

The purple's reaction to the child will depend strikingly on whether he takes after her in the hair color department.

Permalink

Then she thinks he's very cute and mumbles apologetically.

Permalink

They interview greys.

Permalink

There's a bunch of greys; they have been supplied with most of a police department. They vary considerably. Some of them are really apologetic! One of them opines that if you are going to teleport to another planet you should avoid looking like a red on it.

Permalink

The beeple ask that one how the fuck the queen was supposed to know that Amentans demonize her hair color.

Permalink

By doing any research before showing up.

Permalink

Was the grey not informed that this whole thing was an accident?

Permalink

Maybe people who look like reds should be more careful not to have those.

Permalink

Beeple do not demonize red hair.

Permalink

It was really implausible that they would have arrested an alien. Reds, on the other hand, there are tons of.
