Starbolts #757: The Master Plan

 Hail!

    It's just like Robkas to still have feelings for Aquita even though he said he didn't. It just goes to show that just because someone is obsessed with someone else, that obsession never goes away. Crystal had to deal with that herself when she was with her ex. This is part of the reason why Crystal and the princess became good friends. They had common ground. Marcus never had to deal with anything like that and so the ladies likely explained it to him. You can't blame her for not wanting to talk about it....especially on their honeymoon.

    At least Robkas is on his way to jail. He can add impersonating a member of the royal family to the list of charges he's facing. This also includes incitement to riot, kidnapping and a host of other charges. If he implicates Danar (And you know he will because he's stupid) Danar will be brought down once again. There's no bottom for people who want to end years and years of friendship just because his ex is now married to someone from another planet. Robkas will never get over his feelings and for that we can pity him. 

    Crystal obviously held her own against Kahlia. I didn't see the need to show their fight since Kahlia isn't a fighter like Crystal. Even without magic she's very competent in various martial arts.....martial arts Kahlia has no idea how to counter since they are Terran. I highly doubt Kahlia would study Terran martial arts. Still, there was a struggle and the room was wrecked. Kahlia may not have been a fighter but she is stronger than Crystal. Too bad she has a glass jaw.

    Anyway, it;s safe to say that Marcus and Crystal are going to resume their romantic honeymoon after this incident. After that we'll be moving onto the search for Tanis's people. That should be a fun arc. Though, I get the feeling Danar and Robkas aren't going to let things go. 

See ya next time! 

 

Starbolts #756: Honeymoon High-jinks

 Hail!

    There's never a dull moment whenever Robkas is involved. One has to wonder what his deal is. How would kidnapping Marcus help him become Senator? If anything, it won't make people want to vote for him. Most Aquans like Terrans. Robkas, Kahlia and Danar are the odd ones out. I guess they don't see the wisdom of the alliance. That's definitely their problem! 

    I do like how Crystal used magic to distract Robkas. However, it looked like Kahlia wasn't fooled thanks to her telepathy. Robkas's telepathic abilities have been diminished due to an incident I'll get into next time. Perhaps he needs Aquita's services? That'd be interesting given their history and everything.

    Robkas also impersonated a prince and that's not going to win him any brownie points. He figured turnabout was fair play since Marcus and Crystal tricked him and because of that he thought he'd return the favor. 

    With that in mind, you have to wonder what Robkas and Kahlia's goal is. How would stopping Crystal and Marcus's honeymoon help them? Weird. And are Robkas and Kahlia really married? We shall see. And we'll see if any of the other Starbolts lend a hand. All Crystal and Marcus want is a peaceful honeymoon!

See ya next time! 

Starbolts #755: An Aquan Honeymoon

 Hail!

    It wouldn't be a superhero honeymoon without some drama happening. Danar knew about the honeymoon plans and sent Robkas to rain on the happy couple's parade. If Tenera didn't think much of her father's antics before, wait until she finds out about this latest scheme. I mean he hired Robkas to interfere with Marcus and Crystal's honeymoon and in return the Aquan Fabio might get a seat in the Senate. I think the word "might" might be stretching it a bit. The other Senators agree D'Vane shouldn't be in power and do not want Danar have any power after what he did before Marcus and Crystal's wedding. I guess if they're going to be pariahs, they should be pariahs together.

    The last time we saw Robkas was a few years ago when he had his final confrontation with his ex-girlfriend Aquita. Back then he was thinking about running for the Aquan Senate. Depending on how much pull Danar has left after the wedding incident, we'll see if it actually goes anywhere. As you can see he's still with his girlfriend Kahlia. Who knows if they really ARE married at this point. It could all be a lie to cover up what he's really doing at Janagra Falls.

    At least Crystal told Marcus about the dream she had last week.  She was about to show Marcus just how confident she was when Robkas had to stick his nose where it didn't belong. The manager of the hotel promised privacy. What happened? We'll see what happened next week. What does Robkas want? Stay tuned!

See ya next time!
