...as someone who actually really likes snakes, I just want to clarify that I mean it as a grave insult when I say (once again) that Veda reminds me of a snake... both her behaviour and the look on her face when she's smiling are WAY too snake-like for my comfort. *shudders*

Only one person who can make this particular antidote, huh?
I wonder how many people there are that can each make one particular black crystal antidote.

Would’ve been smarter to say that it could only be made through the efforts of two or more specific individuals. Veda just labelled herself as a valuable hostage against an opponent that’s unlikely to kill anyway.

@Some guy: on previous strip she said it is "one-of-a-kind antidote", so probably there are no other black crystal antidotes.
@Lee: I too think this is rather risky, though it still probably require specific equipment, ingredients and such, which might not be easily accessible. It might be enough to not risk capturing her.

@Zyzyzyryxy
Actually, she only said the toxicity is not a problem when you have access to a one-of-a-kind antidote... she never said that this is one or that there is only one for black crystal poisoning.
Or for that matter, that said one-of-a-kind antidote that renders the toxicity a non-issue actually exists.

Unsurprisingly, Veda is indeed a snake lady! Just look at the second last panel.

Kidnapping is not a viable option. Even if Catz could get past Team Empire's magic kids with both Veda and his friends, there's no guarantee that can force her to make more or that they can even get access to the resources needed. All kidnapping would accomplish is the slow death of Catz's friends.

That feels like excessive words lawyering, tbh. Veda isn't an Aes Sedai.. if she's intending to deceive about this, she'd just lie rather than deliberately and intentionally craft her sentences to be grammatically ambiguous.

A small favour that leads to the painter? Or removes annoying ensign fake smile? Something involving Alex? Or perhaps, Ciel?

@Yobestboi Not gonna lie, I did not notice the snake body the first time I saw that page (and I guess I didn't read the comments, either)... Aaand, honestly, I'm not even sure that's really Veda on that page... Still, vindication is always kinda nice, I guess?
hes going to kidnap Veda
