When did they start cooking?
And I'm curious. Who is that in the picture in the first frame?
No clue, but I like the colors on them, whoever they are.
Well, this explains why Kria was in Zinvth when Abel went there all those years ago. And it's actually pretty interesting info.
And Jyrras is back in the picture! Yay! Ahem... scratch my theory that Jyrras might actually know how to cook. He probably survives on microwave meals and oven dinners and stuff like that. Maybe to-go from the pizza place. The frazzled tail fluff looks cute on him. As for Abel knowing how to cook, for some reason I am not surprised. But poor Jyrras.
I'm with Jyrras. Cooking is stupid and not suited to real men.
*timer dings*
And that would be my brownies
...
EEK! my brownies! *runs off, wearing his pink "kiss the cook" apron*
...
I never said I was real
Jyrras has always been my favorite character, but now I like him even more :3
I wonder what precisely the flour did...
I suspect the picture would be Kria's mother or some other ancestor (or sister, cousin, whatever).
I gather that Abel has had at least some classes in Home-Ec, from his reaction here (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_553.php), or at least dragged into class before. I would think they might even have cooking classes separate from Home-Ec which he may have taken for a decade or two.
He's probably only in the kitchen because Abel isn't wearing a shirt, the dirty little perv..
Heh, from the looks of things Jyrras should team up with Mab to bake some cookies (http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_210.php).
Jyrras and Mab should compete to make the worst brownies. :)
I'm actually more interested in the history of the Soulstealer family than what happened to Jyrras. Heck, I can hardly every even get our microwave working right. (It being in a non-English language probably has something to do with it)
Aww... I wanted worldbuilding dialogue.
I'm not sure what expression Jyrras has under that bowl, but the mouth says its full of lol and win. Also wewtz.
Well if the two of them get together I can guess who will be doing the cooking :mowsmile
Oh and I love the look on Fluffy's face . You have heard of someones inner child? I think Fluffy is Ambers inner adult .

Well, it could be in roman numerals...
But there are plenty of buttons on most microwaves that could be in another language. Heck, from microwave to microwave, I often have troubles (if only because power settings tend to change drastically).
What annoys me is the microwaves that don't have anything but a set of buttons with little images on them.
What do you do if you want two potatoes, instead of one? Or if you want to heat something that isn't on the list? Which one do you use? Guess? Poke buttons at random, and hit the "stop" button when it's done?
Doesn't that totally invalidate the whole point of having preset buttons, in that you can push the button and walk away, and the 'wave will cook and then turn itself off?
Well Jy rules the world of technology, I'm not surprised he can't cook. If anybody recognises this obtusely obscure reference I'll be surprised.
Llearch, I see that as anticipation of smart but cheap appliances. Just wait, couple more years and you'll have an iTouch Screen on your molecular resynchronizer. But I'd wait a few months before buying one.
"Screw the cooking, I have money!" ..Nah, Jyrras isn't Kaiba.

Sorry! Thank you for playing!
Ooh! Ooh! What're they making?
I'm hungry and everything...
And that's actually happened to me with flour. Apparently it tends to stick when you have it dumped over your head after a shower. :c
*Charline grins* I can teach Jyrras to cook... >:3
many thoughts come to mind, five to be exact
first- *facepalm* dear frigg, that exact scene happened between me and my wife when we were dating. come to think of it i was shirtless then too, in jeans, with almost the same height contrast. the big diffrence was she said 'i have boobs, i can get people to cook FOR me' which was obviously true.
FYI i was making crepes. :mowcookie
second- cooking with a furry chest and no shirt is bad, as ive gotten many complaints of fuzzy food, however i guess the residents of furrae are used to a little extra fiber in their diet.... although one wonders what happens when you ingest fuzz from magical chefs
:doommuffin
third- why are abel and jyjy in the same kitchen? if abel is helping out at lost lake, i somehow doubt jyjy often wanders into their back room to scope the kitchen. if abel is crashing at jyjy's mansion that raises many questions heavily revolving about his shirtlessness
fourth- the only answer to the statement above would be if theyre both baking a surprise birthday cake or something, which would make much sense as not many actual meals require a large bowl of flour and tis a convenient 'friends in cahoots in secret' scenerio :bday
fifth- am i the only one to note thats jyjy's EXACT experession from his 'perfect date' appearance?
I'm with the kangarorat on this one F cooking. I'll order delivery. Plus ween i cook the kitchen blows up thats why i became a merc so i get payed to blow stuff up.
I find it funny that Jyrras can't cook or bake...
Cooking is literally chemestry, science and skill.
I also find it funny that Jyrras hasn't built a machine out of stainless steel and with lots of sharp parts to do the cooking for him.
... Who says Jyrras isn't a mad scientist.

The implication I took from that strip is that HE for 'Cubi isn't about cooking at all, but has a lot more murder and pain involved since they don't eat food. Hence, Abel is running because he doesn't like the subject matter, not because he hates cooking.
QuoteI would think they might even have cooking classes separate from Home-Ec which he may have taken for a decade or two.
I'd go with that, personally. According to the cast page, he seems to derive most of his sustenance from food rather than emotions. I came away with the impression that he enjoys cooking for its own sake as well, e.g. strip 547 and 569.
But dammit, I wanted to hear what Kria was going to say :<

I noticed. c:
-proudface-
For where Jyras and Abel are, I'd have to guess long lake. The colors are too drab for Jyras's place, which tends towards the bright, specifically orange. Secondly, look how high the counter is. Why would Jyras order furnishings that are too big for him to easily use? (Although there is that one strip where he has trouble getting onto the same table that Lorenda is eating at, blegh.)
As for the picture, maybe it's Kria herself with some dye or something? They look a *lot* alike, which could be family similarity, but I think it's interesting that the figure has black hair and red stripes, wheras Kria has the reverse. It makes me a little suspicious of a "relative theory" given that the stripes seem to have the *excact* same placement as Kria. Besides, Kria seems vain enough to comission a picture of herself.
Something that piqued my interest was Dan's wing in the first panel. Usually, those wings hang behind his back, so either he's pulled it in front of himself, or he's walking backwards for some reason. Perhaps Kria stripped him of his shirt and he is trying to cover up :U
Or maybe he stopped to look at the picture?
This is the first some of you have notice Abel is a good cook? It was implyed multibe times.
- In strip 547 he had not only repainted his and Dan's room, he also made breakfest. Tastey looking too :3
- In strip 569 he had time to make Jy brunch while he was out cold.
- In strip 676 he was makeing a Quiche when the arrow with the note about Lexi being "Kidnapped" flew in the window.
Not to mention he probably would have to cook since he seems quite self reliant.
Oh, Jyrras, why must you distract with your wacky antics and well-written fumbling? I was listening to that!

Neither Dan nor Jy actually ate his food. It's pretty well established that Abel cooks. Whether or not he's a *good* cook is a totally different question :P
This always happens to me when I bake :C
The cookies/cakes/bagels/eclairs/brownies/whatever it is that I'm making always turn out fine, but I always end up covered in flour somehow.

We can't be sure they didn't eat it. It just wasn't shown whether they did or not. Though the first couple times they were in awkward situations.

Abel's cooking prowess, I thought, was well established. I agree that Abel & Jy are making surprise party cake. My father & I are the family chefs, Dad being the executive of course. I'm guessing Kria's ancestor in the painting is an example of Demon gene function, it's going to be aesthetically arbitrary. I'm anxious to find out whose B-day the cake is for.
As a final note I made this post on a G1!!!
I notice that Amber is drawing herself differently. What do you think?

I just think it shows some growing self confidence. Which is good! Amber always seemed to be really self denigrating to me. I'm all for self depreciating humor, I mean just look at me!, but... Nah, I'm not going to get anywhere with this thought.

Got to agree with the "not about cooking" part, but I got the impression from the little bits we saw in the SAIA arc, that
everyone was scared of what happens in Home-Ec. Except probably Fa'Lina. And maybe Destania as she occasionally lurks in the corner taking notes.

Well, unless I've missed something, I think we've only seen Dan and Abel running from the HE class. I'd imagine a lot depends on your attitude to Beings. Wonder whether it's mandatory, or whether Abel took it because he assumed it would be Being-type HE?
Flour sticks to fluff! And I don't think it would gotten boring Ambers...I must know!
I'm guessing Amber would rather leave us hanging when it comes to the history or background of a lot of things. At least untill she's ready. Which stinks because I'm dying to know it all!
Steamrollers take time to warm up. :mwaha
I bet a diesel roller would be much cheaper to get than a working steam roller. And they're much faster to start up. :mowhappy
BTW, in the first panel, we have no evidence that Dan didn't take his shirt off. As for Lorenda and Kria, no actual "shirts" to take off.
