This is more of a thematic/story question, but since Chris mentioned at one point that Tachyon doesn’t have a super-metabolism, meaning she has to stop mid-battle to take a snack break to make up for her running incredibly fast, is she taking damage while Pushing the Limits is in play because she’s running too fast to stop and eat anything, thus making her sick?
Oh, and the fact that she has to do this makes me love her more.
Well, it’s Sonic damage, not toxic damage, so I would assume it’s her breaking the sound barrier or something.
I kind of like your idea though.
That’s true. I should have checked that. Oh well. I’m gonna stick with my theory. Truth be damned.
Ah, the battle cry of the comic book fan.
Yeah, technically she’s just choosing to run so fast that the human body just can’t stand up to the stress of it. She’s only got super speed and a brain awesome enough to calculate how fast she can go without damaging herself, not super endurance or whatever.
However, one of our mottoes around here is “Never let the truth get in the way of a good story” so I say stick to your guns!
