Now it is time for them to go kill DP.
Danna? :mowdizzy
Either they still haven't got it, or they deliberately named him that...
I wonder if she found a new top in one of those crates. If video games have taught me anything, it's that crates usually produce useful stuff when you smash them. :B
I would like to take this opportunity to say 'Told you, told you, told you so!" :mwaha

I'm thinking that Aliyka and Shannah have finally managed to break into the wine cellar or perhaps found a nice vat of ale. They've been at it a while now (time enough for the death knight to stomp Dan and Co. and carry them all the way to Dark Pegasus, for DP to bother dealing with the dark knight (DP seems the type to keep everyone else waiting), and for Dan to finally wake back up), so I figure they've worked up quite a thirst and call a timeout to wet their whistles with a few barrels each -- after which they're BFF and go on a drunken rampage together looking for more refreshments and manage to take down most of the rest of the castle in the process, just as DP is about to do his thing - providing the necessary distraction for Dan to finally take care of business.
Except for the drunken rampage afterwards, I was right (though there is still time for this too). I'm savoring the sweetness, since this will probably never happen again. :mowhappy
Heh. Anna, Hannah, Shanna, and Danna.
Sounds about right. *snerk*

Oh come now -- that was even the very first post I ever made on this forum. I should get a chance to celebrate just a little. However no one argued with me about it at the time, so I don't have anyone I can lord it over. :mowsad Oh well.
You did get a chance to celebrate a little.

Sorry, didn't mean it like that -- I was just enjoying being even partially right about a future turn of events, that's all. It happens so seldom. I'll be sure to avoid any future celebrating on the forum.
Eh, no worries from my end. It was a good guess...
Ah, reminiscing over old stories and ale. Is there any better way to tear down the walls and kindle new friendships?
In other news... I'm back, Boxy.

Wine barrels go fast with common friends :3
I think Shanna and Aliyka know that Daniel is male at the current moment in the flashback, but at the wine cellars, it is highly possible they did not.
Danna, heheh.
Oh, and I think Shanna had not found her clothing before hitting the casks.
I'm wondering if they're subscribing to the same idea postulated earlier, that he could think... like a girl? I don't know, and besides, maybe they just think that's his name. Besides, Danna's not a gender specific name if I'm remembering historical precedent correctly.
Or maybe they're making a pun... Hannah, Shannah, Anna, Danna? Something like that.
So I take it Aliyka might have just gotten out of school for this adventure. If we look back to Lorenda's high school flash back. Am I right or could a couple of years have passed in that time.
Why am I not surprised by that? >.> I swear, they're both epic-level Barbarians, with insane Str and Con scores. That's the only explanation!

or it's entirely possible that since the front of Dan's robe is open, the lack of boobs in sight says "not a girl"..
Lack of boobs != not female.
However it's generally a good indicator.
Anyway...
I'm hopeful those three can work together well enough to take down DP with no further losses. Admittedly we don't know how Anna fared but I'm not going to be overly hopeful for her. Either way, I think the Amazons have suffered enough with the loss of just one of them so I'd like to see the other two (and Aliyka, but we know she makes it) get out alive as well. If not, I hope they go out well.

how did they get reasonably sober so soon? or was dan out for two days or something?
Drunken Amazons.

Oh, you just gotta love the over-lit transformation sequence (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_521.php). That's some good shiny...
And they need a pose. Can't forget the pose...
"Power of the Mythos Plant! Sailor Anna!"
"Power of the Dragon Top! Sailor Shanna!"
"Power of the Fuzzy Tail! Sailor Hannah!"
"Power of the Winged
Dress ROBE! Sailor Danna!"
Oh dear... why do I get the feeling that if Amber sees this post I might give her bad ideas?
If they checked him for injuries, as indicated about the open front and the comment about lung punctures, I believe they would have found a few hints about Dan's gender. By the way Alikya sort of fits the rhyming naming pattern as well.
Observing the gender of personal pronouns will help solve this mystery!
Beer solves EVERYTHING..... hopefully it solves everything when they find out he's a guy.
In case anyone is still confused, in 929 Aliyka refers to Dan as "he" twice.

If you look, Shanna also refers to him as "him", and "he". So it's two references each.
and its a pitty 'him' does not get to see the shot of dragonbooty we just saw
So it's just dan's mistake from thinking that all amazons only like the same sex. Dan seems to have a problem of jumping to conclusions. But hey, we go out into the world to learn dan is just getting a crash course in adventuring.

for a moment i thought i was the only one who saw dragonbooty, expecting many here to point it out
I'll be darned, you're right. I guess I missed it at first because it was mostly hidden by her tail, but that probably is her...booty that we're looking at. :B
Either way, Shanna is absolutely adorable in that last panel. Just something about seeing her tail hanging like that is cute. Like, there's drunk.. but then there's "tail loopy all over the place" drunk. And it's adorable.

At the time the comment was made (and when I'm posting this) it was "Devin is Gay for Abel" or whatever you call the one where the two of them are staring at each other in a cloud of pink.
There really isn't all that much to see... not that I was examining the comic all that closely, noooooooooo...
I believe the random is regenerated each time someone calls for the page, though. But with only 4 images in the cue, it's quite possible that it was the Devin x Abel one. From here (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,4126.msg175448.html#msg175448), FYI. There's the large version there too.
Damn PG rating. This is the ONLY TIME we will ever get to seeing a naked AND drunk character, and it's been wasted on a one-time character.
I think Shanna called Dan "Danna" because she likes him (probably heard how well he fought against Aliyka) and wants to honor him with a female name, because, as any Amazon could tell you, females are the superior sex. :) Does Shanna live at 10 Chickweed Lane?
With regards,
Ted

Who's to say we won't see Shanna again? I mean, we've seen Aliyka in other places, granted this pre-story makes my point confusing, so I'll stop here.

Unless she's about Dan's age, she might have already guessed. Fortunately she has no idea what clan he is from...
given his cubi heritage hasn't surfaced at this point, the Clan marking is an early indicator, but even then, it's Dan, and the marking manifests with use from magic, therefore, no marking in that case.
I doubt Dragons have "Cubi-dar" in any case, regardless.

Quite. Supposedly it will appear on his shoulder eventually, so depending on whether his arms are covered or not, it may not even be visible.

Difficult to say. If the demonology is any guide, they are stupendously powerful, and considered young at tens of millennia.
If nothing else, I imagine you'd probably become quite good at guessing someone's race in that time, and if you run into a guy with wings who doesn't seem to be a phoenix and doesn't seem to have any Angel in him, that starts to narrow down the options.

In any case, there is always the option of Shanna simply not caring. I'm sure there are plenty of dragons not with the group that Destina wants to kill.. she's just a genocidal maniac that wants them all dead.

From what Fa'Lina and Fi were saying, it cuts both ways. That said, I'd like to believe that Pyroduck isn't the only impartial Dragon.
Well, there's also the dragon Dan owes money to. Of course, thatone might also want to kill him when it learns about his Cubiness and clan.
To which Dan would have to muse: You know, it was alot better when he wanted my money instead of my life. :3

Ya know, I don't see why everyone thinks Destania is so bad for wanting the end of the dragon race. Aren't we supposed to sympathize with Cubi here? Why shouldn't we want the dragons gone? What have they done for the good of Furrae? And with them out of the picture, all the other races (beings included) would get a better piece of the pie.
This opinion might not be popular, but I fully support Destinia and Biggs.

The problem with that is that we really haven't met all that many dragons, and those that we have met are either nice and heroic (Shanna and Pyroduck) or at least honorable and apologetic for mistakes they made (like the one who accidentally wiped out the vampire). I mean, yes, you have a valid viewpoint, but personally I'd like to meet a few more dragons and get some perspective from someone whose husband hasn't been kidnapped by dragons. And yes, according to their species profile dragons tend to be jerks, but anyone would be that stuck-up if they were in the position of power and intelligence the dragons are in. Adding to that is that I have a slight aversion to the concept of species-wide genocide. She may have her reasons, but we haven't heard all of them yet. I'm going to wait a little longer before I decide whether or not to throw my weight behind Biggs and Destania.
We don't even know whether it is genocide. Personally, I doubt one 7000-year-old succubus could, in one night, kill all the multi-million-year-old members of a race that is described in the demonology as having no weaknesses and impenetrable hides.
To my mind, it's more likely - but still an incredible feat - that she intends to trap them in the hypothetical 'dragon kingdom' or otherwise banish them from Furrae.
Apologetic?
"Honey, it was a Pinto. I did you a favour."
Didn't seem very apologetic to me. Even if she was right... ;-]

GYAH! Did ya have to say his name?
In all seriousness, the idea that Destania might actually be planning the extinction of an entire sentient species is terrifying. Wiping out a non-sentient species is one thing (and it's a terrible thing, nonetheless), but wiping out a sentient species is a level of evil beyond even that. If the extermination of the Dragon race really is her plan, and if she goes through with it (even if it doesn't work for some reason), I'll lose every drop of respect for her... and frankly I hope her family and Fa'Lina does too.
I'm still not convinced that the eradication of dragons would be a bad thing.
I highly doubt that Dan would like his mother wiping out a bunch of sentients. But Fa'lina? She's quite pro-Cubi and while the Cyra clan is the main target of dragons, I would bet that other Cubi harbor little appreciation for the lizards. Not to mention that destroying an entire race of powerful creatures would certainly say a lot about the strength of Destinia. Cubi don't seem as power-hungry as demons or angels, but Cubi still respect it. Dee might lose any possibility of a nomination for the Noble Peace Prize, but she would gain a nice, large spotlight in the public eye.

Mine was a counter-example. See? (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_286.php)

You make a really good point. Thanks for getting it out much more succinctly than I could have managed. Abel even talked about how all Cubi aren't "evil," and it's just the way that they were raised: dragons would be no different, really.
But, I guess what I was trying to say is that you shouldn't wipe a species out just because they tend to be jerks and because a few members hold it over everyone else. Why not just kill the
evil dragons and leave the rest of the jerks alone. I mean, if we were going to kill all the jerks, then we'd have to bump off Abel too, and the Jybel shippers wouldn't have that. There's got to be a better way than genocide.
And if she's really planning to seal all of them in an artificial dimension, then Destania is just asking for trouble. Imagine how angry they'll be when they finally break out... and they'll know that a Cubi was behind the plan.

They'll find out. Besides, considering the nature of that old war between the Dragons and Cubi, it won't take them long to figure out who was gunning for them. And they might be furious enough to go after the whole Cubi race rather than just kill the handful of people who planned the whole thing, at which point my sympathy for the dragons would start to evaporate.

Well, yeah, that was kind of the point of the line "main characters," though I guess heroes is a better term.

Amber, I think I love you. :hug
Dare you to do this (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_648.php) to her or her husband. It's all in the name of Science, right?
If I ever meet either of them, I probably won't do that. Besides, only 'roo rats can pull that off.
Eh, to clarify, I meant the ones we individually consider hero's. For example say I liked DP: I'd have an image in my mind of him that clearly established him as either good or evil or neither that would be part of why I liked him.
*Charline chuckles* I for one would be very upset if Dee destroyed all the dragons! I have known several that were quite... skilled. ;)
*Charles senses innuendo!* :U

They'll find out. Besides, considering the nature of that old war between the Dragons and Cubi, it won't take them long to figure out who was gunning for them. And they might be furious enough to go after the whole Cubi race rather than just kill the handful of people who planned the whole thing, at which point my sympathy for the dragons would start to evaporate.
It has been suggested that the Dragons started the war in an effort to eradicate the 'Cubi, though AFAIK we don't have anything solid to back that up.
Even then - even if they kicked off the genocide business in the first place - we still have pro-'Cubi or neutral dragons like Pyroduck, and (possibly) Shanna...

... you tried out the dragon tickling thing, didn't you?
Anyways, with the whole dragon thing, I get the feeling Mab is involved somewhere... who knows, this might be something that ends the DMFA series somehow, though I know many people don't want to hear that its just a possibility.

That I can see. I merely argue that someone like Destania would be good enough to either remain incognito or unrecognisable while the whole thing is going down. No use showing your face to the guys you're sealing away, after all. You don't want the last thing they see to be what you look like, after all. The art of subtlety (granted, something of that magnitude is not very subtle) is an underrated art by many.
