Maybe they're not big enough?
there's big, there's too big and then there's a distraction.
Abel was cought by the distraction... her head wings.
All things considered, I couldn't have expected a better response from Abel. Considering the bad day that he's having, the thought of facing another Cubi so soon would be the first concern on my mind. Especially since the last one he met killed one of his oldest friends (that was her in Abel's first grade class, wasn't it?), beat up his mom, sent him into a practically catatonic state from a little cut on his forehead, kidnapped him and dragged him someplace he's never heard of, and threatened to kill his mother if he stepped too far out of line. A little shock and fear at the second Cubi is to be expected.
In another note, Fa'Lina is now grabbing her breasts. If there is a god, then she is indeed merciful.
And in yet another note, this is the first update to Abel's Story since I joined the DMFAndom.
Well, she's entitled to grab them, they're hers. :mowwink Also note her annoyed look in panel 2.
Haha Fa'lina's face in the second panel made me LOL...

YES! The look! That look is perfect! It is the greatest annoyed look I have ever seen in my life! And I'm not exaggerating, seriously Amber it's that awesome. I wonder if I can trim just her face out of the comic and put it in my sig? Not my avatar, though.
I'm gonna agree with it being in my top ten drawn facial expressions. I'm not sure if I agree with Fa'lina grabbing her boobs being a near act of god though, anything bigger than a hand full and you're asking for trouble.

Hoo boy. I was wondering if the girls had been increasing in size due to Amber or Fa'Lina. I guess I know now.
I notice Fa'Lina! Everytime. But really, fishing for compliments? Seems a bit beneath her.
Having unlimited power over everyone in a given area and a great degree of clairvoyance to those within would probably only increase the natural need for recognition from other people.

O.O NOT TRUE, FA'LINA! We all notice them! And we like them just the way they are, though a tad bit bigger would be nice as well >.> <.<
I'm so glad I wans't drinking anything when I read this weeks.
I was.

Heh, I recall Amber telling me off for this

hmmmm anyone else confused by that last post
So here i am, expecting more seriousness, drinking a can of pepsi, when i read the update.
Now my brand-new laptop has pepsi sprayed all over the screen and some of the keyboard XDD
Thanks so much for brightening up my -so far- horrible day XD
sticky laptop thanks to amber been there
the fact that she is incredibly pink, poofy, and frilly distract from her assets. she needs to tone it down a bit so they can draw attention away from the rest of her peacock ensemble. although ive known several women of that size, they're obviously conscious about them, but often they are of the mindset "gee, i wish people would actually DO something instead of just staring"
in the second panel she looks so old. XD
breast no to huge? thats the problem they are too huge!
only abel is gay so whatsya gonna get?
plus the headwings obvious question.
Seems that even Fa'lina cannot make Abel come to terms wth the fact that he is a Cubi ...........
Boing boing is all I have to say
Quote from: RyuuYareYare on July 20, 2008, 05:10:58 AMin the second panel she looks so old. XD
Yes, she does. Early- to mid-50's, by my estimate.
So, Fa'Lina's invested a lot in her two biggest assets? (Seriously, though, they're as big as Abel's head!) If she wants people notice them, she could always start killing people with them. That should get everyone's attention.
i volenteer to be the first victim
I've often wondered why she needs to put makeup on, seeing as she's a shape shifter.
I guess because shock seems to remove superficial shifting, judging by the lack of botox in panel two. :U

...just say no to drugs?
oh fa'lina. maybe she just needs to do more of a 20s burlesuqe theme to her outfits...
or just a 20s theme in general.
mobster fa'lina would look so perfect. with the pinstripes and the tomy gun.
A Tomy (http://www.tomy.co.uk/) gun? Well, if you think so, but I'm pretty sure Fa'Lina would rather carry a real one...
;-]
It finally dawned on me why Fa'Lina doesn't want children at the academy- they might want to suckle with her, but they would surely drown.
that's almost fan service, no?
also: boobies :F
Fa'Lina looks great in those first two panels! I love the expressions.
I'm sorry, I can't join this thread at the moment. I can't stop laughing yet. (http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/froehlich/a055.gif)
:lol Aw, don't worry, Fa'Lina. Your chiropractor and the male majority of the readers still notice them. ;)
I would like to point out that most of the time that I don't notice them is when Fa'Lina is doing something so awesome that it overrides my straight male instincts to look at the faaaaanservice. For example, and (offscreen) song and dance number. Or beating the crud out of Aziz.
It is hard to notice them, what those being block by her dress and all. :mowwink
If only there was a way to get better view. :mwaha
Wait what, did Fa'Lina say something I was to busy staring at Abel
*peeks out of foxhole* ;o; I notice! Honestly!
i'm still waiting to be fa'lina's first victim
Actually if you don't notice them as much as you think you should. You're probably getting tricked by an optical illusion.
Falina's "Malicious Mammaries" are absolutely huge compared to average women.
Falina is however a head above most men, much less other women. Falina is often by herself in a panel or at a different distance from the "camera" then other characters. This allows for perspective to be skewed most of the time and therefore they just look big.
Put Mab or Alexsi next to her and you see how absolutely massive they truly are :boggle
I don't try to be a purvey nerd but it's just too easy! :U
one word- bodice
or corset, corset works too....
Who needs those death-traps (lovevly looking as they are) when you've got cubi powers?
Gamma, are you saying we should have the ladies of DMFA in a bust line-up?
well, that certainly was unexpected.

I take no responsibility for your statement but I certainly have no objections.
If you do something like that, you'll need to include Abel from the time that he demonstrated the complexities of shapeshifting magic to Dan and the others... and forgot to make the shirt.
Ya know... considerring the unique ability of the "gay for Abel" effect and common lecherousness, I don't think I have any qualms about him appearing in such fashion.
*cough*
No Comment.

I have began to wonder what she would 'really' look like, given that older cubi need to use more and more energy to stay young, what would it be like if she looked her age? (already several times the standard cubi lifespan)
Hmmm... I think that would be either:
A. A petrified mummy.
B. A pile of dust.
C. Like she is since she will rip your face off and pour salt all over it for even thinking that for a split second.
thank you and have a nice day. :)

That makes me smile. And it makes me love Fa'Lina more. It'd really suck if turned out that she's been a bad guy the whole time, but given what we've seen of her that is becoming increasingly unlikely. For all of her acts of darkness (she still is a soul-sucking Cubi, after all), she is ultimately on our hero's side. Or maybe they're on hers...

Falina is very tall so she looks proportional/slightly on the larger side. She also has a massive head.
The combination is terribly rare in our species, so it's probably hard to conceptualize visually in drawn form.
If Pyroduck has an average sized human body then Falinas breasts are about an inch or so short of being the size of basketballs. I would approximate about 8-9 inches.
http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_729.php
This puts her in either a G or H cup if I am eyeballing it correctly.
If she wanted to show them off more a bit more contrast in her outfit might give them more definition. The purple doesn't really offset the pink enough to frame them.
*Charles stares... and stares* Boo-behs... *goes to fondle Fa'lina... and has his soul devoured... again* :dribble
*Charline :sweatdrop * Why on earth do I bother repairing him? I'll agree with the 2nd panel look. It's the sort of expression one expects from a 55-year old white woman chain-smoker who lives in a trailer and has just found out her cheatin' no-good husband just drank the last of the Smores Schnapps**. :giggle
**Smores Schnapps is an old South Park reference. :P
Abel in this comic..
Ding ding ding goes the trolley!
Yeah, I have just these three things to say. The first is that 'your' Cubi somehow... Well, I'm a Grammar Nazi. A horrible, humorless Grammar Nazi. :<
Secondly, I'd like to have Fa'Lina's boobs stuffed and turned into a cushion. Seriously. They're the one thing I want to keep, even if they are so huge they make me want to gnaw her spine just for principle. She's... There's no one more deserving of the title 'boob'. She is a boob. A large, structurally challenged, sweltering boob! D:
Thirdly and finally; see the second panel? See that expression? That is how she looks to me. All. The. Time.

Why would she look that way to you?
Aged or pissed?

The former. Compare her to Dolly Parton, for a real-life example. Personally, I admire Dolly's talent. I truly do. But what she's done to herself and some of the things that she represents just...
On a more humorous note, I know the perfect song for the situation. It's written by Roy Zimmerman. Check it out.

No offense, but with the pair of bwommers Fa'lina's got, they go over the line of staring and into "Say nothing, it would be rude!"
Their size may in fact be counterproductive.

(Truth be told, I just made that comment to have an excuse to come up with a new euphemism. The things I do to avoid the obvious standbys...)
Have to agree with Jigsaw. As far as I am concerned, her breasts just Cross The Line (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SoBadItsHorrible).
And this may not come across as entirely believable, but when I see a woman trying to flaunt like that, I don't so much as bat an eye, but just try and ignore it. Anything else would just not be right. And this goes ten times over when the woman in case is someone whom I could imagine as not too out of place on the cast of 'Golden Girls'.

Someone disagrees with you greatly. (http://prime-boobs.ytmnd.com/) :P
i second that notion :eager i am the eagermcbeaver
Don't worry, Fa'Lina! I still love your girls! *hugs her* :3
And... 'bwommers'? Nice euphemism, Jigsaw. XD
honestly the eagermvbeaver thing sounded cooler in my head
I didn't notice them till the third panel. ^^;
Fa'Lina seem to be a size are to bigger in this page. Is it on purpose or just the difference in perspective.

With most men that's actually a good way to derail them from a spiraling pit of despair. Oh dear lord I just helped the Jyrras+Abel shippers didn't I?

Don't worry: I want those two to end up together too (come on, they are the cutest couple, especially when Abel flusters Jyrras) and I've already thought of that. Then again, how exactly would Abel giving himself boobs help out Jyrras: that'd only make things worse, I think. Heh, maybe he'd faint again and wake up on Abel's bed... again.
And no, I'm not embarrassed by it.
Forget Abel/Jyrras. That's fine and everything, but the One True Couple of this comic is obviously Dan/Regina.

Oh please, everyone knows that the only true pairing in DMFA is Dan Phantom.
In all seriousness, yes Regina seems to be a big part of Dan's past, but she hasn't appeared in his present at all. The one time he thinks about her, he doesn't seem to regard it as a happy memory. So while she may have helped shape him into the person that he is today, I somehow get the feeling that he's not looking towards restarting that relationship again. Unless Amber said otherwise before I got here...
Nah. It's just that I'm a fanatic when it comes to the demon.

I thought you were referncing the cartoon show, and thus it would be best to ignore it. Like a lepper or something.

It was a terrible pun (Dan/Dark Phantom) that was a reference to the entity called Dark Danny, who in one of the games was in fact called Dan Phantom in order to play off of his younger persona Danny Phantom...
How the hell do I know that? I wasn't even a fan of the show! I haven't watched an episode in like two years!
:U
She groped herself! :erk
Quite funny. :3
and quite hot :wizfire ow
Every woman plays with them. They're the perfect toy. ;)
Back on track here though, I love Fa'Lina's dealings so far with Abel. She just keeps throwing him those curve balls. Best way to deal with it, I suppose - be the opposite of what he expects. After all, she has been dealing with cubi for quite a while now, she should have some ideas as to how to help. Whether or not she uses those ideas is another matter.
I swear, each time she comes on I love her a little more. :giggle
:) yeah

Well, I can safely say I have my doubts as to that she'll somehow manage to be the opposite. Then again, I don't have Abel's opinion in the first place. And my revulsion keeps overriding all other emotions.

I think that the reason that nobody notices the degree of her upper body development is that most people are terrified of Fa'lina when in her presence. Also, I don't see why cubi would be impressed by the size of various body parts. Since they are shape shifters, they can expand or shrink body parts at will. In fact, they would probably do so in "frat parties" where they could try to outdo each other. However, anybody doing an exaggerated version of Fa'lina might well find themselves being invited to her office for a talk.
