The Aspect of Soul(s) in the DMFA Canon

[Tapewolf]

Great power means great responsibility!

And absolute responsibility corrupts absolutely.

Well I know I wouldn't like my efforts to derail this thread and destroy the conversation to be for nothing.

It's ok, Amber. I'm sure Tapewolf is just suffering from penis envy. He'll live. ;-]

[Amber Williams]

Dun worry Tape! One day you too shall be strong and tall like the mighty oak and not nimble and swaying like the bending reed!

Wait...what are we talking about again?

[Tapewolf]

You can't fool me - I used to watch Fingermouse as a kid!  I know what happens to the oak!

Wait...what are we talking about again?

Stealing the souls from cattle and lab mice?

Forget it, Tape. You won't get this thread back on track.

Success!

And it feels great to abuse them both.

Can...can I have your autograph?

[Amber Williams]

Tracks? Where we are going we don't need any tracks.  

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Ah, so we've got trucks instead of tanks?

[Ren Gaulen]

Success!

Don't act like it was only your doing. Give me some credit too!

Ah, so we've got trucks instead of tanks?

Well, I've got a half-track.

[Mao]

Ah, so we've got trucks instead of tanks?

Yup it'll be a convoy!

COOOONVOOOOY!!!

[Noone]

Stealing the souls from cattle and lab mice?

Aaaanyways,
If livestock in DMFA did have souls, I would think that cubi or angels would have set up 'soul farms' of mice, they do breed rapidly and I would imagine such a set up would be both profitable and relatively easy to keep in check, plus it provides a way to get obtain souls without angering beings. (unless of course stealing the souls of animals was considered despicable, but I don't really think that's the case.)
The aforementioned setup of course, wouldn't work if mice didn't have a 'soul', or at least a low quality one. I couldn't see a demon setting something like this up, they seem to chaotic to focus themselves like so and would probably abandon the idea as soon as they can go wreak havoc somewhere. I could certainly see an incubus doing such a thing though, I would imagine it would take more discipline than most cubi have. Still, I would imagine at least one would have come up with the idea and some would have the focus required for such a thing if it were truly profitable.

Nah. The jig is up at this point and so bringing in the monocles is moot point.  I shall simply have to wait for another thread to show up where I can be passive aggressive and abuse the fact I am a mod and creator of the comic so I can get away with posting trollish behavior that would otherwise warrent me getting a lecture from the rest of the admins.

Oh yeah...absolute power is awesome.

great, now i have a mental image of a wiku worm with a tophat, monocle, and handlebar mustache.

and Fluffy doing the Muttley snigger

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Heavens to Murgatroyd! Exit, stage left!

[Jairus]

... who's Dick Dastardly and Muttley? I mean, I guess they're the type of cackling villain you'd find in a melodrama, but aside from that I've got no idea.

EDIT: Okay, and now Boxy's being strange. Er.

[Tapewolf]

... who's Dick Dastardly and Muttley?

Two cartoon characters.  I can't for the life of me remember their origin, though I should know it.
Dastardly was the sort of villain guy, Muttley was his dog.  IIRC Muttley didn't speak, but did have a characteristic laugh.

I kinda remember them too. They're from Wacky Races.

you both fail at watching Television.

[Tapewolf]

you both fail at watching Television.

Or more specifically, remembering the names of cartoons I last watched 26 years ago...

Wait.  Stop the Pigeon?  Was that it?

That's why Alondro works in a lab, isn't it?

Even more specifically, remember cartoons from before I was born. That would be a neat trick right there.

What?  You've never seen reruns?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Or youtube...

[Jairus]

Oh yes, I'd absolutely love to watch a thirty year old+ cartoon about a race. I can't even watch modern live-action races, what makes you think a cartoon race will be any different?

[meany]

Because your supposed to laugh when they crash and run around on fire, screaming for help.
