A Jinxed Christmas (Part 1) (Patreon)

Thunderous, wicked laughter echoed far above Starfire, the alien heroine flying as fast as her powers could manage. Not that it was enough. No matter her efforts, no matter how many miles she flew, she never came close to escaping the eclipsing shadow that engulfed her. A shadow that blackened the snow beneath her before its enormity made the world itself shudder from the impact.

THOO-OM!!!

Although she narrowly avoided the massive structure, a blast of displaced air threatened to send Starfire spiraling out. Her pursuer saw this, a wry laugh sounding off once again as her boot lifted and heaps of snow rained all around the reduced Titan.

"That's right. Fly away my little Tamaranian Termite! Or I’m gonna get you." Jinx mocked, her face twisted with a perverse delight. For what was meant to be simply testing a new hex, she couldn’t deny the results were immensely satisfying. 

Starfire didn’t give her the dignity of a response, already blasting off once again. No matter. Jinx followed at a slow and deliberate pace, each step teasing in its approach. It no doubt felt tense and dramatic for the Titan she’d shrunken down, but from Jinx’s viewpoint it was just the world’s easiest game of Cat and Mouse.

Unfortunately for Starfire, even the best games had to come to an end. 

When she tired of it, Jinx’s foot rose and positioned itself over the little alien. The ridged sole of her boot blotted out the heavens and went on for seemingly forever in all directions. “Is that the best you can do?” Jinx scoffed. “It’s almost like you wanna be-”

“CRUSHED!!!”

Her foot came down without warning, snowing no mercy as she twisted it into the ground with a satisfied grin. “Heh. Merry Christmas to me. Finally, I-”

A shadow fell over Jinx, her eyes trailing to the heavens as her heart sank.

“-Win…?”

Alrighty. First things first. A big thanks to Asterisk for providing the wonderful slice of text that you just read there to accompany the strip and another big thanks to LewdsSonk for helping me out in a big way by collaborating with me on making the strip. I was a little bit late to get this done on time just before Christmas day but I would have taken way, way longer to get this thing done without their help.

I'm really thankful for both LewdsSonk's and Asterisk's help and so I'd like to shout them out a bit on where you can go to follow them:

And yeah this is just part 1 of the strip. There's still the second half of it that's yet to come at a later date so stay tuned!
