Obstacle in the way? Simple, remove it. Destroying her didn't work, but relocating her? As long as the "real her" isn't still there, it could work...

this sounds like a really drastic change from them deciding to flank her with different runes. But I guess they need surprise now that Cvet is injured, I'd be surprised if this works though

Unleashing her most potent glyphs: Kill Sat Wi-Fi, Turbo Omega Flowey Hair, Ultra Pi, Microscope, Sideways Inscyption Turn Bell, and River Delta Model! I like that they're in almost chromatic order.

Trading a valuable rune for passage. A fair deal.

Six people running, six glyphs.

why is nO ONE LISTENING THAT SHE'S NOT THE TARGET DAMMIT y'all gettin on my nerves now

Oh no this is not going to go well at all for Parley :( :( :(

Six glyphs for six beings?

Parley, no offense, but I think we're a bit beyond a good hug being what Noa needs to be a better person.

I could accept the fact that Kat was wearing the outfit, but now she's even doing a pose from that show!

Six glyphs for six people. Not all of them are going to be nice glyphs that stun you or lock you in place. Was that the farthest you could "bip" her?

In the last panel are those colorful symbols the magic Noa is stealing (or THINKS she's stealing?)

While she's at it, why doesn't Parley just BIP she and Noa someplace far, far away?

Oh, Parley :(

Uh oh. Girl, the shadow!

So a sacrifice was still needed.

oh no, I do not like this menacing mood

NOOOOOOOO

That's a ... significant number of glyphs, which doesn't look good for Parley. If shoggoth Noa is still by the barrier, it might not be great for the others, either.

Parley! She said she wanted teleportation, and now you’ve given it to her. Come on, girl.

yyyup, parley's gonna die.

I get the feeling that Noa is going to be getting very frustrated soon as she tries to take the “teleportation glyph”.

so does her animus teleport with her? or can they be separated?

Seems like a viable tactic: teleport above an active volcano, drop opponent and leave.

Man, this fight is so entertainming. The insignificant minority who are complaining about it have no idea what they are talking about. Great chapter, Tom. Keep it up.

The whole chapter to lead up to this moment--and the next. It was worth it.

Dammit, Parley, if you had done that choke right she would have been out in seconds. Ah, well. No one knows everything.

aw! a hug! the steven universe fighting style I see

oh-oh, That's a lot of glyphs

I really hope she bips her somewhere else

Oh no.

Pick up the pace, Red!

Kat runs like a Ska dancer

Maybe, all this time, Noa really just needed a hug

The way that running doesn’t even seem like a priority for Red lol. She’s still here just cause Annie happens to be her ride

Nooooo Parleeeeeey! Where’s Smitty to bring luck to his girlfriend??

So how are you going to explain the rest of the story on this chapter

Noa's not very good at her job, is she. The witches seem to be bad at calculating actual risks

A and K's faces look funny

"Huh, a WiFi enabled IUD, a ponytail sun hat, a paint sprayer, a pocket microscope, a hotel desk bell, and a mossy waterfall? All useful stuff, but how do you teleport with these?"

lol Red running with her hands in her pockets. I hope Parley will be okay!

Parley used Hug! It's super-effective!

Dear George, please don't die. Sincerely, Me.

I swear to god if Parley ends up hurt-

Glad to see the fairy ring bip spell here, but this sure doesn't look like the Mort Myre swamp.

Man, I want a hug.

This feels like a bad plan and I don't want anything to happen to Parley.

It's hard to take off something that isn't there, no matter how many aids you have working on the project.

oh no, i think Parley is about to lose all of her powerups!

Not red running with hands in their pockets.

Are those glyphs Noa is snatching from Parley, or are they for a combo "Oh NO, you don't!..." spell?

Quick! Keep bipping!

Tradsies?

Oh shit guys she has wi-fi

She’s really convinced that her innate ability to teleport is a glyph, lol

Damn, you could at least pay for a dinner first... seesh.

Bip Noa's avatar back to the Follower, and bip back alone to join the posse at the wall! But be quick about, Parley! You're holding on to armfuls of powerful no good, and she's about to counter attack!

Noa isnt reacting… who’s gonna tell Sylvie she doesn’t like girls
