Interesting... I'd have assumed this kind of "I thought you were going to..." would actually occur less often with empaths.

Still, there's no accounting for attention span...

Indeed. Nor is being able to sense feelings a foolproof way of predicting a person's actions, emotion being the chaotic bitch that it is.

I love how they have both expressive ears and head wings now.

From the page's caption, I got the impression that they could both sense what the other was going to do, and they both waited for them to do it.

And then both of them failed to do what the other was expecting, and then, "UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!"

You know, this seems obvious, but it occurs to me that Dan hasn't actually seen his mother since he found out he was an incubus.  He knows where she is, too, since he ran into her there, even if he doesn't realize she's still there.

Heh.  I wonder if she even realized that he didn't know what he would become?  "You didn't tell me I was an incubus!"  "...I didn't think I had to?"
