Recursion is a furry webcomic by Rae Bruner, the author behind Faulty Logic and Dissonance.Legend tells of a time when the world of Kass was invaded by an army of demons. They commanded incredible powers, and the Kassians were rapidly conquered and enslaved. But just when everything seemed lost, a hero appeared. Her magic rivaled that of the demons, but her real power was the ability to inspire others. The Soulless Wars, as they came to be known, raged for years. And, although the hero gave her life in the final battle, the Kassians were victorious.It's more than a just legend. Kassian archeologists have discovered the remains of the hero. What's more, it has intact DNA, letting them clone the hero of old, which they name Jade.Jade, however, doesn't exhibit any of the magical and psychic powers attributed to the legendary hero. She is, as far as anyone can tell, just an ordinary little girl. The experiment is declared a failure, and Jade herself is adopted by a relative of one of the admirals overseeing the experiment.And that's just the backstory.The comic proper starts with Jade, now the leader of a squadron of fighters in the Kassian space force, preparing for the last battle in the war against Dr. Deathe. Since this is Deathe's last stronghold, they are expecting a big fight. But there's one factor that nobody expected; one that will change the course of Jade's life forever.You see, Dr. Deathe is working on a time machine.You can read Recursion on its own website.

Alternative Calendar: Kass has apparently changed dating systems at some point between Jade and Toban's times. As when she asks him the date he lists something in terms of moons and eras.

Trapped in the Past: Since Recursions can only go backward from their point of origin, the only way to go forward would be for someone in the future to open a Recursion to you. This happens to Jade, since her ship self-destructing destroyed the Recursion she came through.

comment
Deceased Parents Are the Best: Admiral Mosley carries a photo of Lt. Seren Mosley, his relative (daughter?) and Jade's adopted mother, with him at all times. Just to drive the point home, there's an extreme closeup of the photo during his speech, specifically when he mentions how much the war has taken from them.

Is This Thing Still On?
 Recursion (Webcomic) / int_751bd286
comment
Is This Thing Still On?: When Deathe interrupts the Admiral's speech, she starts to broadcast the audio before the camera is set up, so the whole fleet gets to hear her argue with her cameraman about setting up a low camera angle to make her look better. What's more, when she's done with the intimidation she cuts the video but not the audio, so everyone hears her ask a minion if there's time for her to take a leak before the battle starts.

comment
With Catlike Tread: Jade is hiding from some security drones when she finally gets her stolen gauntlet-phaser to boot up. It boots up all right; right into a cheery holographic welcome message and an offer to register the unit with the manufacturer. Then it shuts back off to download a firmware update, so not only does she still not have a working weapon, but everyone in the base now knows where she is.

Unfortunately, she believes the best way to do this is to force everyone who wants to be a parent to submit to invasive genetic screening, and deny permission to anyone who's genes don't pass muster, and she's willing to conquer the world to ensure her rules are put into effect.
