You have Rust. (the knight in this panel looks very cool, wears sunglasses, and probably has a ponytail)
You've been told how easy it is to rescue the princess. Absolutely nothing will get in your way, they say; nobody can possibly get access to your plan, and you can even rescue multiple princesses simultaneously! (in this panel, the knight is imagining rescuing three princesses from three different castles at the same time)
You start working on your plan. It's elegant and beautiful. You write articles on Medium to tell other knights how to rescue their princess. You tell everyone who will listen about your plan. You become a Rust zealot. You never rescue the princess. (In this panel, the knight is nowhere to be seen, and the princess looks bored in her tower. The knight is across the field, at a festival with the banner "RUSTCONF" flying overhead)
yeah but memory safety tho
Yeah not one mention of "I'll never forget you Princess"
Great punch-up. I wish I'd thought of it.
I'll never
