Dodging weapons fire, be it from a gun or a bow or even just a Roman Candle, as well as sword swipes, kicks, flails, punches, shuriken, paintballs, etc., is one of those times where having large, relatively unsecured body parts can be a real hazard. Like a tail, or Twi’lek lekku. Or boobs.
Max becomes less jiggly the higher her armor is. She never has the problem of blocking bullets by standing in front of innocents with her hands on her hips, Superman style, only the bullets start going all over the place because of fluid and elasticity dynamics of invulnerable boobs being machine gunned. No, the bullets go all over the place because someone is machine-gunning invulnerable, non-deformable rounded surfaces. That would make for some chaotic reflections unless you were really good at 3D billiards and could calculate ricochet angles at literal machine gun speeds. (Yes, I know billiards is already a game played in 3D, but it’s functionally all on a 2D plane, unless you include hopping the balls over each other. I meant like if the balls were in some sort of 3D space with pockets on the interior of a cube or sphere or dodecahedreon, that had a sort of felt-like inertia field.)
Anyway, I mention all that because I still thought I ought to have her breasts showing a little bit of inertia, otherwise she’d look like some Poser 3D model rendered upside down, Wampa ice cave style, with boobs hanging ceiling-ward in defiance of circumstances.
Of course, you could say the same thing about muscular men. All the beefcake makes your hitbox that much larger. In The Expanse, at some point Amos ask “Why do I keep getting shot?” I felt it was a missed opportunity that no one said, “Because you’re so big.” (The real reason of course is to show the audience that the characters don’t have absolute plot armor.) But my point really is that women of a particular endowment, if they know they’re getting into a firefight, would probably wear a “smush ’em down, hold ’em in place” sports bra vs a wonder bra, and that’s assuming they’re not in a position to don body armor. Max is armored, sure, but is only wearing about 2 mm of smart space latex and some pasties. Trying to wear a sports bra under that setup would make it look like she was laying on her boobs, and like I said, she’s running with enough armor most of the time during the tournament that punching her in the boob would break a normal human’s hand before the boob deformed in any way. Also a Terminator’s hand. A Cameron one, probably not a WH40K one. But then, a broken hand would be the least of your concerns if you tried to punch her in the boob.

Thomas Doscher writes Vixen War Bride, one of my favorite series lately, and he’s gotten two audiobooks done, but is trying to wrangle up the funding to get the rest produced, which I would very much like to see. He’s got a GoFundMe set up to that end. It’s different than a kickstarter, which would basically pre-sell you the audiobooks. This is just for anyone who really likes the series and would really like to have it all in audiobook format. So, FYI.
Final version is up, both at TWC and Patreon.
Sexy bodymod news lady Gail has a special one-on-one interview with Tournament Quarter finalist Saraviah Nightwing! And if you subscribe to Gail’s Space Patreon, (which, due to the vagaries of Earth and Gal-Net’s DNS servers, happens to be the same as the Grrl Power Patreon, go figure) you can see that same interview in the nude!
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
