''[[http://www.pasteldefender.com Pastel Defender Heliotrope]]'' by Creator/JenniferDianeReitz is what happens when you cross ''Webcomic/UnicornJelly'' (to which it is a sequel) with cute art that would look in place in a children's book, with an (eventually) even more convoluted plot than the original. It starts in a bizarre alien universe called Pastel, where humans have adapted to life with the help of GreenRocks called Chatoyanite, with a dysfunctional scientist [[GuiltyPleasures covertly]] buying a sex doll. Said scientist, Dr. Ranse Aoi, is involved in alternate universe research, and one day, in drunken haze, accidentally sticks a piece of ImportedAlienPhlebotinum from one of the alternate universes into the doll, bringing her to life -- though at first he has trouble accepting that, thinking of her as just a clever machine.

A MindScrew webcomic about a [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot living flying superpowered sex doll]] who ends up saving the multiverse. Or something.
Well, that's the short version.
''Pastel Defender Heliotrope'' by Jennifer Diane Reitz is what happens when you cross ''Webcomic/UnicornJelly'' (to which it is a sequel) with cute art that would look in place in a children's book, with an (eventually) even more convoluted plot than the original.

From there on, Heliotrope begins a quest for identity and finding out her origins, during which she falls in love with a young girl named Fuschia ''[sic]'', who was kicked out of her home by her homophobic parents. There's also lots of time travel and cross-universe travel involved. And MindScrew. Lots and lots of MindScrew. The ending in particular makes the finales of ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' and ''VideoGame/BioShockInfinite'' look sane and tidy in comparison.
