Sewers (storyline)

"Sewers: A Val and Isaac Adventure" is a noncanonical 23-page story arc where Val, Isaac and Minnow are hired by a city's public works department to take care of an infestation of flugbeasts in the sewer system. Isaac and Val enter the sewers while Minnow provides remote support (her efforts are hindered, however, by the restaurant she's at only providing complimentary WiFi to customers who buy expensive menu items). The flugs are unusually coordinated and aggressive, and Isaac determines that they've been linked together psychically. He sends Val into the psychic dimension to break up the hivemind and she encounters a green sentient in an orange jumpsuit. The being notes Val's Infiknight armor, assumes she is hostile and attacks her. The entity uses the flugs in the psychic dimension to restrain Val and uses her forehead appendage to see Val's memories. Stunned by what she sees, she releases Val and apologizes. Then Val punches her.
The being explains that she's lost control of the flugs, but can't leave because her body is probably dead. Val says that she doesn't see a situation in which the other comes out alive, to which the latter responds that she can but Val won't like it. Val then wakes up to see Isaac and a group of robots, who want to arrest the duo for "unauthorized use of coalition tech." Isaac and Val fight them, without much success, but when they're about to lose Val suddenly channels unknown energy and dismantles the robots.
The arc concludes with Val, Minnow and Isaac meeting up at a restaurant called "Uncle Steve's Foodplace", where Val explains that the entity is currently staying in her mind, but only until they can find her a new body.
== Notes ==
There are two versions of page 14, which depicts the being accessing Val's memories and moments of the memories being accessed. It was edited to reflect changes and further detail Tredlocity had put into Val's origin story. Dialogue in pages 12 and 18 were also apparently changed. Tred stated in the tags of the page's reblog to the tumblr val-and-isaac that the original version "[doesn't] fit the current canon".
