I think it might be time for the Kill 6 Billion Demons part of Kill 6 Billion Demons, during which our beloved Kill 6 Billion Demons will presumably Kill 6 Billion Demons.
Now I guess it’s time to find out if Gog takes issue with this, or feels that it’s a great idea and proceeds to help her out with a new stage of training that consists of seeing how efficiently she can kill a crowd of Gogs.
Allison was, of all things, a *philosophy* major. She doesn’t have to be quadrillions of cycles old, like Gog, to realize the how system is foundationally FUBAR’d. Everything else has been tried and failed. Sometimes the only way to break the tedious ouroboros is to vaporize the snake entirely and look at what’s left.
okay so it’s implied that you have to eat a gog worm to become goggy, but what would happen if someone were to take a bit of themself and trick gog into eating it? would it work in reverse and you now control gog? would nothing happen? would you only control that specific instance of gog? would it make a difference if you tricked gog prime or a satellite gog?
For those poor souls regionally challenged by the cruel demiurges of content locking, the alt text is “20 Minutes of We’ll Be Right Back | The Eric Andre Show | adult swim”.
Gog talking about how Allison was supposed to be the “girlfriend who gets killed off to traumatise the chosen one” while a reincarnation of Cio is watching is an..interesting juxtaposition.
Yeaahhhhh….
I was noticing that and sort of thinking….. “There’s no way Gog-agog is this dumb. She KNOWS that Alison is the choosen, not the love interest. She KNOWS that Alison’s love interest is dead, and that talking about all this is just rubbing salt in the wounds.”
Which… feels really weird, because it feels like the kind of thing which would nudge Alison back ON script. Does Gog want that?
It’s really kind of interesting, the way Gog talks about Allison in the context of tropes and repeating cycles, like this is less of a repeating cycle across time and more like a story being told over and over again, sometimes with minor variations, but ultimately coming to the same conclusion. Of course, until this Allison comes along to change the narrative.
Makes my literary analysis heart go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I wonder if she isn’t talking to ‘Cio’ in that panel where she talks about the plants. It’s got her in frame and it aaaaallmooooost looks like Gog’s angled up to where she’s lurking while she talks. It would be equally applicable to Cio as it would be to Allison, but what machinations would Gog have towards the devil, why would she benefit from stirring those memories? Much to consider.
So the overall plot to me suggests that every demiurge has to be defeated no so much physically as *thematically*. Allison didn’t kill Mottom, but she destroyed her tree. She didn’t kill Mammon, but she broke his vault. And so forth. I wonder how that will work with Gog-Agog.
Present company included, I assume.

Did anyone killcount before that moment? Though must be lower than 1000 for Allyson yet

You know Gog AGog, I think Alison has decided something. She appears to have decided that she does not enjoy theater, chaos or whimsy.
How does beating the shit out of everyone help Alison with the original goal of convincing the Beast to work for her?
She’s going to have to beat up just about everyone who’s ever existed, possibly including herself by the end of it. Though, that does sound cathartic.
If that’s what it takes, so be it.

that one begins to sound like Jagganoth

asking for a gog–i mean a friend
Most likely, Gog will simply eat you. Gog’s really experienced in that. Otherwise e wouldn’t be the Scourge of Worlds.
What was the link? it wasn’t available?

Aw jeeze. Who was the writer who could animate paper thin characters again?

… so Gog’s a fan of twin peaks. This checks out.
A missed opportunity for gog’s first line to be “A worm hand for our protagonist”
“I mean, you must just be tired of all this, right? All this running around, all this THEATRE.”
“–Look– CHARLIE– you’ve had a busy DAY! All this running around? All this excitement with BATMAN…!”
standing there?
Long enough.
I always find it hilarious when an ancient powerful being that has seen the world end countless times just pulls out a gun to shoot somebody.
Once again, Alison walking the path of YISUN’s greatest disciple.
“THIS IS THE ROYAL RUMBLE! EVERYONE GOES OVER THE ROPES!”
I like her train of thought….
Cio from the balcony: “You’d think a billion year old clown would actually be funny OH HO HO HO HO HO”
Indeed, the hardest, most punk answer you could possibly give, Allison!
All power to you!

Has anyone else noticed the Twin Peaks inspiration in the red room?
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU Wielder of Names 1-13!
SHES A FAN FICTION WRITER!
“I’m not a heroine!”
“Not Yet…”
“Need to get you a mentor, a more magical sword, DEFINITELY A NEW LOVE INTEREST”
Everyone around Gog: “pls just eat me already…”
Also, I absolutely love the implication that beating the shit out of everyone is just the first step so she can think about the actual problem.
No brakes
A noble goal!

Midwestern Gog says ope.
