Wasn't there more than one? I had the feeling that she was travelling for a while. Hmm. Were the inhabitants tall and green? Should have been more involved in the recent reread.

There was only one planet in the story which I have in mind, the story where they unexpectedly interact with Blok.
This planet's name begins with one of the last five letters of the alphabet.

Last five letters....
There goes my next guess of Inquisitor's Planet.
Zirr?

Not Zirr.
Another hint: the planet's name ends in " i ".

Verzwei? I remember being fascinated by a planet named something like that.

Yay! Ibby has the right answer. As I noted in my Legion Forum comments on this story (Baxter Era issue 56,) it doesn't seem to mean much to anyone else but me, not even to other fans of Tasmia, and Blok, and Eduardo Barreto. I find that...puzzling.

They must have been desperate to go there! They were, but that's what I love about the story -- Tasmia getting tough against anything and anyone who poses a threat to her lover.

"Verzwei" actually means "desperate" in German!

Orange? It was Yellow. A top and a mini skirt over knee length tight pants I think. Remembering her sitting on Cham of all things.

Kind of a scene that sticks in your head (mine at any rate) along with Gim's almost instant infatuation with her.
When Brainy tries to use Computo circuitry to cure Danielle Foccart (real smart guy there) Garth ends up fighting three normally benign appliances. What were they?

I remember a vacuum cleaner attacking Tinya... but Garth...?
1) VR gaming console 2) auto-cooker 3) door

The Vacuum Cleaner did indeed attack Tinya, not Garth.
Ibby is also correct about the gaming console.
I am going to allow Cooker because that is how I remembered it and checking it was while Imra was cooking but was actually the "atomiser" - garbage disposal?
Anyway that's 2 out of 3.
1. Cooker/atomiser 2. Gaming console 3. ?

Ah, "atomiser" I couldn't remember what it was called but remembered Garth cooking at some point. I'm also recalling something electrical Garth was fighting. Some sort of portable lighting unit?

Yeah, I remembered the VR unit - it had already taken out Sun Boy and Star Boy.
Hrm...
Cellular trim ray?

I thought for sure Garth was fighting against a door that would not open, but now I think it was Jan, Tasmia and Shvaughn. I also remember Tasmia not coming across very well in that issue, she spent more time whining and complaining than trying to solve things... My impression anyway.
Urm...
A welding machine?
