Dramatic lighting effects! Also lightning! Freaking out Abel! "Fuck you so hard"!

Considering the tune of the last few comics in the arc, I find this one incredibly mirthful.


On the serious side of things, it looks like Falina DOES know of the newest addition to the Academy.. unless that's just random ion particles sparking off, but in the Academy? Unlikely.

[Mwa]

Fa'lina said that she was omniscient within the academy, so I would assume that she does know.
Also, Abel's eyes in the last panel are amusing.

[Tapewolf]

Well, his eyes can move at least.
Interesting that Aniz is being all friendly now, still he's an incubus and they tend to be  emotionally unstable...

[MT Hazard]

I can't help wondering if the last comment by Aniz is a threat or wishful thinking...

After all, even Pip described Fa'lina as beautiful.

However if she is a permanently beautiful succubus, why does she wear so much make up?

Aniz looks good in his new threads but still has the S.A.M hair style.

His stance changes per panel as if he's slowly getting up. (apart from the lightning ones)
Also, now he's on his home turf, with his beloved son. Wouldn't you be friendly?

Beloved? Are you sure about that?

[Hawk]

Eh, I get the feeling that our good friend Aniz isn't exactly on the best of terms with our better friend Amelia Earhar- I mean Fa'lina.

Beloved? Are you sure about that?

Don't think you can be sure, but I actually am starting to get the feeling that he cares for Abel as his son, even if he's bad at showing it.  Some people show it with love and kisses, others show it by slicing foreheads and beating mothers and kidnapping and whatnot.

Reading over this post, I realize that sleep deprivation is not a good thing for me.

Can we truly be sure of anything in this comic?

[Raskahn]

Hmm we're forgetting something here...Oh yeah, *Applauds Amber for the wicked lightning effects*

[Saist]

I do believe that any attempts to copulate with Fa'Lina in such a manner as Aniz describes would net a painful torture session.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Are you sure she wouldn't enjoy such a thing, je.saist? ;-]

[computer nerd]

Hmmm Maybe Aniz is going out with Fa'lina 

[Kuari]

You know, here's the big question coming to my mind...  if they're already at the Academy...  will Aniz be dying at some point soon....  or will he make an appearance in the main comic?.... oooo, the suspense.

Edit: Oh, and kudos to Fa'lina for ticking Aniz off

[Tapewolf]

My pet theory has been that he died a few years before the mainline began.  The evidence for that really hinges on how Abel and Aniz get on now they're both in the Academy.

is it just me, or did aniz suddenly develop a very slight pot belly? maybe fatherhood is creeping up on him, what with having a spat with a woman and male bonding with his loinfruit

Quoting JKR: "Oh, my god, the fan fiction."

In the first frame?  Looks a bit like it.  Shapeshifting helps of course, but when you don't need food at all anymore, I imagine you'd have to watch your diet if you want to keep your base form lean.

Eeek! Scary lightning!
Now all we need is the dramatic organ riffs

You called?

[superluser]

So is Fa'Lina here, or is she just sending her lightning as a vanguard?

Given what we know about the future, I suspect that this the chickens are coming home to roost.

[Brunhidden]

the pink poodle is doubtless lurking somewhere building up drama and stuffing her face

remember cubi=drama, cubi=long theatrical exposition, cubi=camera hog,   all the attention has to be on the cubi

[Alondro]

*Charline hmms*  Abel's introduction to the SAIA:  mother abused, best friend sliced and diced, father suddenly a cubi who reveals he killed the original, warped with no explanation to a strange place with ominous foreboding...

And now we know why he's emotionally mal-adjusted.

Ya see, this is why Hogwarts decided to go with the letters.

Could it be that the shirt had a magic spell on it that made him appear slimmer.  And that's why he really loved that shirt?

[Snap]

Well, Falinas lucky that Pip is not around.

From page 58 onward its pretty much been a nonstopping ride for Abel and me as as the reader (thanks to character empathy ). Sure it was successful in carving deep scars in Abels mind, but i for one can enjoy watching childhood traumas only for so long.

With corpses,blood and traumas on the left and relationship problems and curses and evil faes on the right i kinda miss the old lighthearted absurd stuff. I guess since im not a big fan of baseless speculation, mainly story-driven arcs just arent my cup of tea. They include too much of that "sense making" thingy.

Beloved? Are you sure about that?

Aniz was mad because Fa'lina tried to scare his son with a practical joke.   The eight ball says, "Yes."

Your post is full of win.

I think it was Edward that killed him.  It would explain why Abel seems to owe him for something.

[Tapewolf]

Yep, that's the one.  That particular variant only works if Abel still despises him about 350 years later, though there are other versions where they've made their peace and Edward saved him.

[Ted Schiller]

The odd thing is, I do not think the lighting and thunder scared Abel.  Surprised him, yes.  Of all the things that happened to Abel this day, the lighting and thunder, which were outside, were the most normal.  Compare Abel's mouth in the second picture and the last.  In the second picture, scared.  In the last, he is just pensive.

Ted

Could be. Or it could just be a combination of the way he's standing, leaning slightly back, and the bulky jacket.

I wonder, though, what did Fa'lina mean with the flash of lightning? Just a spot of dramatic necessity? An "I'm watching" message to Aniz? Both?
