Title: 12/09/08 [Perfect Date #14] - Perfect Date Pip
Post by: Jairus on December 09, 2008, 01:53:05 AM
Kii. :nod

Another great one. Especially that fourth one. Does anyone know what Pip is saying? Besides Mab, that is.

As for Amber and your stress... you need this. :hug

I still wonder if Pip is (at least) bilingual and hiding it, or we're just getting Mab's understanding of what he's saying here. (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_847.php) His facial expression looks more intelligent and dignified than in most other strips. Besides, Amber didn't use the standard convention of putting dialog in other languages inside < >, so I think he is speaking normally (whether you want to call it english, furraesh, or whatever).

I really like Pip's pose in the bottom panel in a way such as he was expecting you to choose the one about not being able to understand.


On a slightly tangent note, the "Wow, that actually explains quite a bit" option reminds me of Moppy from DT by Tim Dawson.

It's like StarWars! :O!

Well, I hope that doesn't mean you're going to ban him and Pip.  I mean, I can see getting away with banning the former, but the latter.. well.. I've heard he's got a nasty set of teeth.

That might explain why Pip is so aggressive. He could be used to beings coming over and trying to take a scale... which no doubt hurts quite a bit, on both ends.

I dunno about Jaba but Chewie is physicaly incapable of speaking common, as all wookies are.

*nerd mode activation*

Common is what it's called in Dnd. in Star Wars, it's Basic. And I don't think there's any evidence that Jabba being able to speak Basic, his vocal cords are probablhy a lot different when he evolved from a giant slug.

Define "normal". And then prove that your definition of normal is the same as Pip's. Or anyone else's.  :U

After my cats got at the box, I assure you that the box would appear furry and would be shedding.

it was a joke, and a refrence to the comic. If she didn't expect responses like this i doubt she would have added the commentary at the bottom.

Somehow I could totally see this as something like an RP-auction. Trying to keep your character alive while outbidding the competition.

I apologize for any distraction this is now going to cause peeps. :B

While possible, and seemingly more so, I doubt Amber would hold the auction in an open forum here.
Primarily some would wish to stay anonymous, second it could quickly degenerate into something horrible if not kept in check. I don't doubt it could be done but I worry about our moderator staff, I wish as little work for anyone as possible.

But as I said, if Furbid doesn't open up as an option she may have no choice. But I'm being pessimistic, it would probably go pretty smoothly here.

Honestly I think something maybe up/down with Furbid's automated services, I can't get registered no matter what email I've tried.
