If Pyro doesn't slam Abel's head through a wall I'll.... well not be surprised but disappointed.  I like Able well enough, but he needs the crap slapped out of him :p

Dan is one of the last people I'd expect to say something like that. He's definitely the Cubi I'd least expect to say it. Oh well, as somebody probably already stated in another thread, at least he already knows how to walk in high heels. :laugh

But for the first time in DMFA history, I believe we may see Dan without his back wings. Of course.... yeah, he'll also be trying to look like his sister too, which for Dan... it's bordering on creepy. :laugh

And heres me thinking that he could be sensible and go for the "My name's Dan, Alexsi isn't availble at the moment,family crisis.." Of course that would be far less funny and prone to problems. As even Dans beginging to notice "I should of seen that coming, my lifes just one big walking cliche"(Vol 605) He could even go for being Alexsi's sister, that could avoid loads of problems, therefore he probably won't. That and this has probably ben  secret fantasy of his for years.

Also, it seems Pyroduck is more vulnerable to sudden and unexpected surprises along those lines, unlike Abel.

Either that or Abel just dropped him. >:3

Oh Dan the calm one... not quite a role he is expected to fill.

About time one of my predictions hit the spot... crossdressing that is.

Though I believe it would hae been more interesting if Abel used this as a shape shifting drill.

And yeah, I think Abel just dropped him, even though Pyro's mind is apparently also a bit fried preoccupied since he just falls down like that.

James is, but as I mentioned, we could get one of his sisters to do the line if he really isn't able to do it himself.  A little gag I picked up from episode 39a of The Burkiss Way, although we kind of did this for Wildy in the Warrior For Hire arc.

As for 'Za', the only place I've ever seen it used before is Lore's line in #147:

I don't know... It's not like Amber hasn't dressed Dan up as a girl before. I'm sure if Amber really wanted to be evil to the Radio Project she could come up with much worse.

As for my sister recording the lines, I'll have to see what the lines are going to be first (I'm not having my little sister talk about bra sizes).

Indeed.  If we do go that route, she'll only be doing the lines where he talks to the reporters and the rest will be done in your normal Dan voice.  If Dan started talking about bra sizes to the reporters, Alexsi would crucify him. :P

In addition to Abel's apparent respect for Dan, I think a bit of "Cubi Brotherly Love" is in effect here.  Since Dan is now an Incubus, Abel probably has the moral concept that he should look out for his fellow man (or in this case, Cubi).

Post by: llearch n'n'daCorna on October 02, 2006, 04:50:43 PM
I'm more inclined to think that Fa'Lina has suggested that what she offered to do to Dan's spine if he skips class will happen to Abel if Dan isn't there, as well.

I doubt, somehow, that Fa'Lina would take "but he's dead!" as a suitable excuse to let Abel out of the pain....

I was tending more to the fact that Dan is a young incubus who must be protected at all costs, but yes.  And as Llearch says, Fa'lina will go crazy-ape bonkers if her prize is killed by a dragon ("He must be brought to the academy AT ALL COSTS" (http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_481.php)).  That and the strip would have to be called 'MFA', 'AMFA' or something like that  >:3

What surprises me is Abel's choice of weapon.  Firstly that kind of attack will be very messy in just the sort of way that is known to freak Abel out, and secondly, he doesn't need the knife.
As Amber pointed out when Abel offered to break Merl's neck, in a full attack Abel would have just taken his head clean off with his tentacles.  He was bluffing then, does that mean that the knife is just for show here as well?

Sometimes we do things the old-fashioned way simply for the sake of doing them that way.
I think it has been established that Abel knows enough about magic and Cubi abilities to be able to kill an opponent in a variety of ways (or worse: to make them wish he had just killed them). But sometimes you gotta go back to your roots and do things in a more... solid way. You know... to get that certain feel-good vibe of having accomplished something with your own hands.

I notice that Dan is already wearing mascara.
Also, I just had the insane idea that Matilda might show up and see through  :mowdan ielle's charade. Yet another entry on my Impending Doom list

List of Impending Doom
1)  Danielle plus Biggs equals attempted marriage #2
2) Mab getting angry when it hurts to hug the porcupine
3) Dan finding out Pyroduck is a dragon
4) Jyrras finding out Lorenda is responsible for the S. Wilder book getting published
5) Fa'lina showing up at the interview to "correct" Dan(ielle) for skipping class
6) Pyroduck crashing Biggs's wedding party
7) Matilda showing up and recognizing Dan(ielle)
8) Alexsi beating up Dan(ielle) for impersonating her

And the possibilities go on and on...

Yay! My first first post on page post!  :B Wait, now I'm confused

What surprises me is Abel's choice of weapon.  Firstly that kind of attack will be very messy in just the sort of way that is known to freak Abel out, and secondly, he doesn't need the knife.
As Amber pointed out when Abel offered to break Merl's neck, in a full attack Abel would have just taken his head clean off with his tentacles.  He was bluffing then, does that mean that the knife is just for show here as well?

If, per Demo 101, dragon hide is impenetrable a tentacle attack wouldn't do much good. Perhaps he needed the tentacles to immobilize Pyro so he can get an eye shot with the knife.  If you can't cut any area with skin on it an eye shot would probably be the only chance he had.

Yes, but does the Dragon Hide aspect carry over when said dragon is transmogriphied into a furre?  Besides, it's the scales of a dragon which give it it's resiliency to weapons - the hide itself is just flesh, and easily cut (as one may have seen from the Dragonheart movies or Bilbo Baggins vs. Smaug the Dragon).

'Sides, tentacles may not be able to penetrate dragon scales, but everything tears under sufficient stress.  Probably wouldn't be too hard for a Cubi to rip something to pieces.

Eyeshot with the tentacles is possible, too. You're asking/answering the wrong question-- it's whether or not it's worth it (or if Abel is even capable of-- read on) to concentrate long enough to strike with your tentacles and leave yourself vulnerable in the meantime.

The pseudolimbs are an extension of brainwave patterns (subconscious http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_385.php, remember?); concentration, willpower are the key factors. At some point, I did a brief explanation on the subject of controlling the subconscious, reflexes (Pavlovian conditioning), for a roleplay post in the SAIA RP. I don't believe the post containing the information is still there, with what the forum move.

Mostly dealt with the description of how the perfect process of controlling the tentacles should be, as much as I can recall. The Doctor Ink was teaching Metamorphosis class.

Anyway, at this point, Abel can't concentrate on anything but killing the dragon. (Going back to my original statement.) This is still an extensively mental, and not a physical, task. (It borders on reflex, but not quite. That's still only training the conscious mind. Training the subconscious is a more complicated process as it is an intelligence within an intelligence.) He doesn't work well under pressure, if you've noticed.

But I realize that all that is overanalyzing the whole thing.

Simply and finally, to the original query, it might be that he wants to do -something- about the dragon now, and regret about his fear later. (After all, he has a few moments before Pyroduck has recovered enough from the blow to change back into a dragon.) He even attempted to use a wooden crate earlier, what's stopping him from taking out (again) at least one of the blades he had out earlier and using that?

Addendum:
The original query is also misdirected-- if he shouldn't want to use a dagger, why did he take out his swords earlier?

The whole thing about most of the comic discussion that amuses me is although we keep asking why, the inevitable answer is "Why not?"

*Charles struggles along, wriggling in a straitjacket*  It's a Progressive Knife, I tell you!  Abel is a clone of Adam... Adam is Dan!  That's why he wants to protect him!  Dragons are spawned from Lilith!  *squirms*  He's trying to prevent Third Impact from destroying Furrae!  Do you see?  DO YOU SEE!!?!?!   Jyrras is Gendo Ikari!  He's trying to betray the Creature Council... which is SEELE!!  It all makes sense!  Hee hee hee... hAH HA HA HA!!!  *is clonked with a club*

*Charline tosses aside broken club*  Ok, back to the loony bin with you.  *sighs*  This is what happens when you watch the entire series and End of Evangelion in one night.   :rolleyes 

Ah yes, Ink.  Inducing a self-awareness within the subconscious is tricky, but once you get hold of it, it does become quite easy to control.  The true potential is unlocked when one accomplishes a complete merger between the two and all the pathways function in unity.

Post by: Mel Dragonkitty on October 03, 2006, 09:12:12 AM
Thanks Ink. The comment about stabbing in the eye was more of a question than a comment.   Wouldn't the crate have been the more sensible weapon anyway? While it mentions that dragon hide is basicly uncuttable it doesn't say that bones are unbreakable or internal organs are immune to damage. Bludgeoning would be more effective, wouldn't it?

A diver in a chainmail shark suit doesn't have to worry about cuts from shark teeth but jaw pressure can still destroy the underlying structures. Isn't it similar?

And here as well : http://nice.purrsia.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=79;t=000710#000000

To be honest, even going back over the strips, I don't quite know what you mean here. 

Here's a bundle of things which suggest to me that he isn't exactly straight, in order of appearance.  I'm sticking only to items in the strip, not possibly-bogus comments from the Circle:
* His outlandish, over-the-top dress style
* He calls Dan 'sugar-fluff'
* After the bat incident he becomes extremely protective of Dan, although this might simply be that he owes the Ti'Fionas big, as speculated earlier in the other forum.
* When Nirfy kisses and hugs him, Abel goes utterly berserk and tries to rid himself of 'the taint'.
* When Dan goes to bed, Abel stands there looking at him with a big grin on his face and then makes suggestive comments.  IIRC this strip was about the time people began to speculate in earnest.
* In the bathroom Abel strips Dan naked(!)
* Abel's encounter with Jyrras.  Nothing definite, but the body language is.. questionable.

It occurs to me that you might be referring to the fact that Abel has driven away many roommates.  This could go both ways - he might have been trying to get rid of them, but his remark about 'always being friendly and helpful' implies that he might have been trying to be 'over-friendly'.

Of course the third possibility is that he simply isn't interested in anyone and prefers to remain alone.

truthfuly I'm pretty sure I know where Abel falls sexualy but pointing out that Abel being shocked about dan in drag proves nothing.  not all gay people are into drag, not all people into drag are gay.  like I said all this proves is that Abel had no Idea what was going on and was caught off guard.

aw hugs hare. you really hang on until the end don't you hare as for whether able is gay or not... we'll know soon enough.

truthfuly I'm pretty sure I know where Abel falls sexualy but pointing out that Abel being shocked about dan in drag proves nothing.  not all gay people are into drag, not all people into drag are gay.  like I said all this proves is that Abel had no Idea what was going on and was caught off guard.

Only one way to settle this: Have Jy, Dan, and some of the male forum peeps put on a "fashion show" for Abel. Then his thoughts on the subject will truly be revealed. I vote we have Nirfy and Amber on the voting team with Abel.

At one point wasn't there a comic with Abel taking off his pants to prove a point? I forget what he said but I swear he was addressing the girls. Otherwise, there isn't any actual proof that he's gay. eccentric maybe, effeminate possibly, but he's not gay until we see the nasty. And we won't.

Besides, there was a part of Abel's Story that did a good job of scaring the gay out of him, if he ever had it in the first place.

What do you mean "soon enough"? As if the biggest clue hasn't already been put out almost from the beginning...

To be honest, even going back over the strips, I don't quite know what you mean here. 

Here's a bundle of things which suggest to me that he isn't exactly straight, in order of appearance.  I'm sticking only to items in the strip, not possibly-bogus comments from the Circle:
* His outlandish, over-the-top dress style
* He calls Dan 'sugar-fluff'
* After the bat incident he becomes extremely protective of Dan, although this might simply be that he owes the Ti'Fionas big, as speculated earlier in the other forum.
* When Nirfy kisses and hugs him, Abel goes utterly berserk and tries to rid himself of 'the taint'.
* When Dan goes to bed, Abel stands there looking at him with a big grin on his face and then makes suggestive comments.  IIRC this strip was about the time people began to speculate in earnest.
* In the bathroom Abel strips Dan naked(!)
* Abel's encounter with Jyrras.  Nothing definite, but the body language is.. questionable.

It occurs to me that you might be referring to the fact that Abel has driven away many roommates.  This could go both ways - he might have been trying to get rid of them, but his remark about 'always being friendly and helpful' implies that he might have been trying to be 'over-friendly'.

Of course the third possibility is that he simply isn't interested in anyone and prefers to remain alone.

I find those to be rather weak reasons.

In most of the cases, he has Dan as an audience, and I rather feel he's having Dan on; humor at the expense of the new guy, as it were.  He could also be acting "over the top" in order to drive Dan (or even people in general) away because he fears emotional attatchment and relationship, not something that would surprise me after the way some people treat him in Able's story.

As for Nirfy, it could be that he really doesn't like her personally, which is reason enough for the reaction in my book.  (Heck, I make that reaction some times with my sisters; it's more for show/all in fun because we all know we really love each other. >:3 )

Sides we dont even know Abel is gay..Cause that knowagle is left up to the creator and artist herself...And if you dont mind I have a few things to say...

1. Amber will the main god of this univerce she has shared with ourselfs

2. We have no real offical proof of Abel's homosexualitly/sexuality for that matter...Even there are a few inverse inside jokes now and then...But thats just amber for ya people...Get throught it we shall

3. Cause knowlage is power...With that power we may come with our own theories and such but most wont hold much proof in Ambers ways cause I say again..AMber is god and she will always be one step ahead...Unless something has kagged the feelign she might take upon some support with it what we say and do it anyways...

4. And lastly unless it holds up a 50 foot long 2000 pound bar...Heck..She will throw it in anyways cause you know she likes to see the fans happy and proud...Yet really where just the ants who mainly swarm her backyard....And thusly eat up every last sugar cube...And thats all I have to say about that....

Indeed, and there were a couple of even weaker ones I could have thrown in too. It's more the overall picture.  Now I didn't provide any counterexamples - that's not because I was cherry-picking, but because I couldn't find any.  Feel free to post any I've missed.

Oh yes.  That was to prove his gender though, not his preferences.  I thought the 'audience' in that case was one each, but I could be wrong.  I'll accept that's about as close as we have to a counterexample.

Quote

You don't need to go that far. Vol#200 is one possible way - I can think of a few other ways to prove it without breaking PG, and Amber is a considerably better writer than me.

QuoteBesides, there was a part of Abel's Story that did a good job of scaring the gay out of him, if he ever had it in the first place.
How did I forget that?  That's probably the single most convincing counterargument so far, actually.  But don't forget that he's been in a school filled with weird shapeshifters for 370 years or so - you're going to come out of that a very different person to the one who went in.

All told my personal favourite is actually the 'isolationist' Abel, but it's fun to speculate.

I fourth the vote on the fashion show thing. Anyway in the case of Abel and his sexuality I think he's not gay I think he's more leaning on being a bisexual. But this is Amber's creation and she is the only one will tell us in due time on the matter on hand. I think Abel is 100% bi and that's my two cents on this subject..................

Oh, and Nirfy (at least in the comic, not sure about "real" nirf) is an evil pouncy-fan-type. There's no worse taint than having that all over you. *shudder* (I probably worded this wrong, but give me a break, the sun's coming up and I haven't slept.)

Oh, and we can't really say anything on his sexuality anyway unless we start to count times he's actually gone out and hit on or otherwise expressed feelings for someone...

Interestingly, my preferred dictionary (www.dict.org) didn't have it. My less-preferred dictionary (dictionary.reference.com) referred to it as "a heterosexual male who has a strong aesthetic sense and inordinate interest in appearance and style, similar to that of homosexual males" yet wikipedia lists it as "A trait of an urban male of any sexual orientation who has a strong aesthetic sense and spends a great amount of time and money on his appearance and lifestyle."

I note that dictionary.reference.com assumes that homosexual males have a strong aesthetic sense and inordinate interest in appearance and style...

.. which, of course, leads into a question about what counts as "inordinate" :-)

Always interesting to listen to you, Ink. :-)

Yes, but does the Dragon Hide aspect carry over when said dragon is transmogriphied into a furre?  Besides, it's the scales of a dragon which give it it's resiliency to weapons - the hide itself is just flesh, and easily cut (as one may have seen from the Dragonheart movies or Bilbo Baggins vs. Smaug the Dragon).


I was going by Amber's statement that dragons have no physical weaknesses and their hide is impenetrable. As to the furae side, I saw a show Monday night about a prehistoric giant shrew that had bone in it's skin under the fur making it fairly impervious to cave-man tech weapons. Maybe Pyro's a giant shrew.

Sorry to keep harping on about the Gay Abel business, but people may find Ink's earlier comment (yeah, a year earlier) interesting.  I'll probably shut up about it after posting this.  Yes, it could be a feint to promote further confusion, but here we go anyway:

http://nice.purrsia.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=79;t=002572;p=1#000014

To put an end to the speculations: Incubi and succubi can 'change genders' in outside form but the sexual organs aren't functional. We require quite powerful and permanent magic to get around that problem. However, most only deem morphing into the other gender necessary up until the point where the victim is alone, offguard and we can strike.

Abel is proud (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_428.php) to be a male homosexual, by the way.

---That's why I sick Nirfy on him (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_537.php) often. Purely for novelty.

And the cute scenes of Abel-- let's see.

That hardly proves Abel as Gay.  Crossdressers ( Or transvestites or preformers or whatever they call themselves) aren't all  gay ( at least in Las Vegas). All we know about Abel is is that he likes dressing up in girly clothing, not that he's gay.

(FYI My sister is gay, and worms into every conversation that she's gay, and it gets sofa- king annoying,  Everytime she breaks up with a girl she's been dating for 3 days its a big dramatic fiasco that lasts months. Quite frankly I don't care one way or the other so long as they don't tell you their homosexual every ten seconds. Then if you try helping her she says you can't because you don't understand what its like to be "gay", how she can't get a job because she's "gay", no one loves her because she's "gay",  and there are none of her kind here in Vegas, or they aren't really "gay" but "Bi"... I hate her because she's  "stupid" not because she's "gay", and if she tries to kill herself again I'm calling the fucking police and letting them deal with her.)

I have been unable to locate any conclusive evidence on Abel's sexual preference... mainly lots of forumite wishes and desires.  Inky has said Abel is a male homosexual, but we all know he is by no means an authority on this subject.  So I'd say there's no real evidence at this point of anything, so who knows?

And heres me thinking that he could be sensible and go for the "My name's Dan, Alexsi isn't availble at the moment,family crisis.." Of course that would be far less funny and prone to problems. As even Dans beginging to notice "I should of seen that coming, my lifes just one big walking cliche"(Vol 605) He could even go for being Alexsi's sister, that could avoid loads of problems, therefore he probably won't. That and this has probably ben  secret fantasy of his for years.

Amber's insight into the mind of a comic reader is scary.  now where is my   encryption key again?

that's a ROT-13 key, right?

.. or are you using triple strength ROT-39?

actuality it's a random thermal image key that generator the equivalent of a 50megapis or 2 terabyte encryption code. tho who try to read my mind get disturbing images and aggressive destructive code for their trouble

It's a possibility, but he's already as much as suggested to Dan that he uses origami...

I think if the magic is like a lot of concentration and alot of imagination. But in Dan's case he doesn't have the capacity or patient to pull this off. But yet he is psyched to do it. Who knows the power of the Cubi race is still somewhat a mystery. Until we will have definite answers we will postulate till no end...............

Dan has done wonders in the past. like beating dark Pegasus (how many times?) and his retrieval of the hammer and his causing the underworld to freeze over with a sentence.

:yeahthat

I forgot about that remember this is Dan here sometimes things dosen't goes his way all the time. I think the ever all powerfull Amber Goddess felt slighted by Dan sometime and like to make his life a series of unfortnate events *there I said it* :P
