The ascending bulge he makes in her instead of a descending one hits a very unique itch for me.

I like that this Naga is the one that always does the nomming at Vore Day ^^
Great work as always man!

Always glad to see more of your nagas. :)

But I have a pretty obvious bias towards snake ladies, as you well know.

Laspis is the craftiest of them all ^^

Clever girl! I wonder if she’ll catch the other woman or If the elf will slurp her down instead

Posted by Frakass 8 months ago Report

Both are possible, but neither of them can digest the other.
I guess swallowing Laspis would be the best way for Pip's to arrest her, but it would be a dangerous move for Laspis to swallow Pip's, as she would then, well, incriminate herself for good!

Pretty heavy air in this version of Brussels today, isn't it, Frakass?

What makes me think that? Quite simply, observation and logical deduction.
The picture is a wonderful illustration of what's going on. Laspis, with a body length of around 15 meters - measured by the police officer at approx. 1.8 m - is hovering at a low altitude with a helium-filled belly, 7.5 to 8.0 m in diameter.
At this diameter, it has 220 to 270 cubic meters of helium in its belly, which gives it a buoyancy of 250 to 300 kg at 1.1145 kg/m³ under normal conditions. (Please forgive me for not calculating with Newtons as I should have done).

Mind you, under normal conditions. Because, based on calculations like the ones I published in the comments here: https://aryion.com/g4/view/1030186 I estimate her weight, together with the people she has already stowed away, at about 2.0 tons (simplified: half the length, a quarter of the diameter, makes 1/(2*4*4) = 1/32 of the weight of the Titanoboa of about 59 tons). That is 8 times the buoyancy at 7.5 m, so her balloon belly should have twice the diameter, 15 m (since 8 = 2²).

Since you would of course never make such a careless mistake, I can only explain it in one way: Above Brussels there is not an almost normal pressure at 15 m above sea level, but a huge air pressure of 8 atmospheres. That would have some side effects. Firstly, because of the higher speed of sound, people would speak with a Mickey Mouse voice, as if they had inhaled the helium. In addition, people would certainly experience nitrogen intoxication. This is not recognizable in the picture. (My personal guess: the Ttrucilian embassy is expecting a visit from aliens who need high air pressure but still want to tour the city without a pressure suit. So they've distributed anti-diver's disease medication to the population).

The little hints you always give that this is set in an alternative universe are also nice. 50 gas cylinders for almost 2000 m³ under normal pressure, that's about 200l at 200 bar filling pressure, the largest common gas cylinders I know are 50l, wink, wink.

By the way, for the people who Laspis has swallowed, her helium-filled belly is a blessing. They fall into a coma with far fewer symptoms of asphyxiation than, for example, when inhaling carbon dioxide.

PS. Does the triangle logo with the hieroglyphs on the wall have any meaning? Is there really a pagoda near the Atomium, or is that another reference to the alternate universe?

AHAH! You fell for my trap, Stratokummulus! I purposely draw her belly far too small for the lift it have to provide in order to make YOU do all the maths. Now, I'll be able to know how much helium I need to stealto fill my super-vilain dirigible!

...Oh, and there was also the problem of keeping her belly small enough so it would be all in frame OR drawing every other things so small it wouldn't have been that interesting ^^;

Great calculations, as usual. I was aware the belly would indeed be far too small, and that a load of 50 "medical style" tanks wouldn't be enough to provide it anyway, but this put things in perspective, even if she "only" need a belly twice the diameter.
Hum... I'll explain that by saying that buoyancy is just stronger in that universe. Slightly different universal constants, yadayada...
...Or it's a surprise effect of Brettanomyces bruxellensis and the other wild yeasts that are responsible for the spontaneous fermentation of the local Lambic beers in the river Senne valley, where is located Brussels (not to be confused with the river Seine in Paris, which is know to make olympic swimmers angsty and angry).

Something I indeed didn't thought about but is to be expected is the "oxygen displacement" effect caused by all that helium and that it would provide some sort of "mercy death" to Laspis victims, as I doubt she maintains 19 percent of more oxygen in her stomach while floating in the air like that.

About the other elements, the pagoda near the Atomium is totally real and is a rather notable landmark of the North-West of the city : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Tower_of_Brussels

And, lastly, about the "triangle", it's a very, very common street art poster you'll spot in many place in Belgium, created by a street artist called Thierry Jaspart. I put it there as a little easter egg that the belgians would recognize :-P

You are welcome, Laspis, I guess. Just don't forget to keep a pictorial record of your nefarious actions for what little posterity you leave alive.

Great, nah, that was a simple calculation. Knowing how gigantic real blimps are it was a no-brainer that it was scaled down for aesthetic reasons. That little Randall Munroe in me just thought, what if not?

Tinkering with the universal constants can lead to unexpected butterfly effects. Merry Curry will probably have a thing or two to say about that. Movies like "Everything Everywhere All at Once" may be hilarious, but only if you either can have the analytical part of your brain zone out or otherwise somehow get over the headache as it agonizes drowning in fallacies.

Speaking of wild yeasts, the only instance I drank a something made with these is self-made elderflower champagne, which I did not produce for a long time. The flowering season is very short and I always miss it, even so it brings fond memories. I once had Berliner Weiße, which is a beer said to be made using similar yeast as Lambic, but I don't know how comparable it is. As a Franconian, I am from a beer heartland, and I am not remotely an abstainer, but also not really a beer enthusiast.
I actively ignore the Olympics, but can not avoid every news they spin. So they did not manage to make the river through one of Europe's biggest metropolitan areas clean? I would not even call that news. But I wonder how angsty and angry Olympic swimmers would be in one of your settings.

Such a mix of He and O₂ actually is in use as Heliox for deep diving and medical uses. It would require an even more inflated belly. But what would a combination of glutton of live feast and gourmand with a special taste for its desperate escape attempts like Laspis not do to enjoy the prey's energic struggle for survival in her stomach for more than a few seconds? Knowing her prey falling into an easy slumber and them not experiencing the horrors of agony being digested alive - to her that probably sounds like the worst kind of food waste! On the other hand, the even more high-pitched squealing cries of her passengers due to the compressed helium gas mixture, not yet dissolving in the shallow puddle of digestive fluid at the bottom of her stomach, but instead violently drumming a cacophony of rhythms against the surrounding thin, but impenetrable membrane, that would have made her stealth mode impossible, and would have scared away any further tidbits.
At a certain point, you have to compromize - rationally sacrifice one aspect of your desired indulgence by deciding what's more important to you; and with Laspis, quantity seems to literally outweigh quality.

Tbh, I never heard of the Japanese Tower before, and did not find the tower on a map yesterday even so it's only a 1.7 km walk away from the Atomium. But I also can't find a jar of jam in a fridge.
In Munich there is this structure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Tower it's just half as high, but I guess it's much more familiar to people from Germany. "Oh, when in Munich you have to visit the English Garden, there is this tower (and of course the nude people sunbathing)."

The sign, I thought it was some cryptic message Laspis could have glued on the wall, maybe I mixed her up with Isis.

Quite a nice mixture of vore and inflation! Love the way her stomach is mixing both the contents of the helium and the digested food.

man they really up the realism and quality of those display blimp doll, you can almost believe those are real with how fluid their motion are, they really need to work on those moving bits inside though, ruins the immersion seeing the internal mechanics used to operate this clearly remote controlled masterpiece.

man if only you could do this and just...skip traffic, so much convenience, how come no one made this an alternative to in town mobility, call it "uber eats" :P

Although this is clearly meant to be comical, I got to say that overinflated vorish nagas are awesome to see in general, and you've done excellent work with such a rare idea in general. ^^
