So, I had wondered why the Elves and the Pixies could both worship Diana and she would do nothing about one committing genocide against the other. I would imagine that was too interesting of a conflict or backstory for Diana to stop. Oy vey… are all gods in this reality this petty? That’s not a good sign.
I mean, it’s really not that uncommon for gods to see mortals as mere playthings. Just look at the Greek pantheon and what they all started. And to be fair, these guys were idiots. You’ve being held captive by a goddess because you were going to try and turn some of her followers into swords and you presume that you’re not in enough trouble that you can try to talk back to her? They kinda deserve it.
Traditionally gods tend to highly value entertainment because they’re immortal and have nothing better to do when they’re not doing their duty as god of [whatever]. But it’s even worse here since Diana is actually aware that she’s part of a fictional show and/or web-comic. Basically she’s a critic of her own show.
Since Diana knows Sue and Kathryn are the stars of the show, of course she cares more about them than the backstory of a bunch of unnamed characters.
I’m kind of tempted to ret-con the were-elephant curse to be Diana’s punishment for the Pixie Genocide, but it’s original reason is, if anything, enforcing the idea of divine pettiness, so I dunno if I want to lose that either.
You could always make another curse that we haven’t heard about yet for their punishment for that. Maybe even something embarrassing so that they hide it which is why we haven’t heard about it yet.
Hrm. I can’t tell if my previous comment just didn’t go through or got caught somewhere. I had said that you could just create a new curse as a punishment. You can delete this one if the other appears from the nether.
Last strip I thought she might actually come up with a different punishment since Chekov’s Fire had been going for so long and it might be a misdirect. Nope! Thugs finally go in the fire in the most hilarious way possible.
But it’s fine. I’m sure they’ll be way more interesting as swords or whatever than they were as ordinary villains.
So, what sorta sword(s) will be made from THEM?
My guess is, the 3 of them combined will STILL be inadequate to make a single halfway-decent toothpick.

Oh dang, she just BBQ’d them.

She picked up the canine with her left hand, then feline and avian with her right, but then they’re swapped in panel 2.
