Ah and also ha.

We knew Selene owned SOME business she expects Skylar to take over...

=============

Also, Hellen is deadly cute in profile...

Methinks Selene may have some wine already . . .

And that would seem to imply that Hellen's horns may be artificial, to fit her for the role of Devil Girl . . .

Or she's not para'ed out and just keeping to a human form, like Bryn.

Well, after crafting the Infinity Braw out of Uru, Nth, Mithril, Vibranium, and just a little pixie dust, SOMEONE should be able to make a top like that.

I like the suggestion that Selene may be the owner of the company. Though how she kept that from Katherine would be surprising, given Kath's job. Hellen is also 100% a succubus herself, even in the 'dressed down' pinups, she's had horns and tail.

There's got to be a few ingots of Adamantium and Necrodermis around here we can use...

Neutron star 'nuclear pasta' is the strongest material known in the universe, thousands of times stronger than steel.

The problem is, a bra made of that would probably weigh more than the Earth...

The right fibers, a little magic and a status field does wonders. Thats a bet i would have loved to witness. Either way it went was a win.

What would be real funny is if the owner of Devil Girl was actually Jessie Gottlieb's mom...

For boobs of titanic proportions.

EDIT: Also consider:

For an out of this world rack.
For stellar support.
For heavenly bodies.

Hellen is blushing a lot. She may just be one of those people with extremely fair skin who turns red fast, and not from sun.

If she's not a succubus or other devil girl, I wonder what her species is...?

And, at normal atmospheric pressure outside of a neutron star's gravitational field, a bra made of nuclear pasta would instantly explode, violently enough to vaporize most of North America. That's both good and bad for the repeat-purchase market, I suppose, and it's hell keeping them in stock at the warehouse.

So, use inoson instead. Word is (and it's the word of EE "Doc" Smith, who Arthur C Clarke said "holds all the original Star Wars patents") that inoson possesses the theoretical-maximum strength possible to matter. (One presumes that Smith was referring to normal non-degenerate baryonic matter). It's usually used for making spaceship hulls, but I imagine it could be spun into very fine fibers and then woven into cloth.

Some of those cut-rate knockoff tailors overseas may try to foist off a bikini woven from arenak fiber, but don't be fooled. It's nowhere near as strong (the first Urvanian battle cruiser that comes along will burn it up), and it's transparent as well (maybe great for naughty lingerie, but not great for bikinis).

inoson. Just don't confuse it with iocane and you'll be all right.

We don't need to be all that elaborate.
Just use a more normal fabric like nylon and use Upsidasium.
With that you get both stability and support with comfort and without rigidity.

Thing is with boobie catchers it's not so much the materials as it is the weave and cut. Nylon would be strong enough in ballistic weave (yes, they used to make bullet-proof vests from ballistic nylon) and is also comfortable enough to wear next to bare skin. It might be a little rough for sensitive spots ( :mrgreen: ) but a cotton jersey liner would take care of that. And I have spent too much time around materials scientists. :roll:

The true problem is most bra manufacturers don’t care about busty women. They prefer to overcharge for products that busty women are begging for and artificially suppress supply to inflate demand.

From a materials and engineering standpoint, it’s not that difficult a problem.

Yay late-stage capitalism.

Not to be confused with gownless evening straps.
