Well, this was unexpected. But I have to say, Abel makes a very good "cute hostess."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
I didn't realize that Lorenda hadn't met Abel yet until just now.... :giggle
Manohman.... At least Abel gave his right name (but then why wouldn't he?)....
You all should have heard how hard I laughed when I saw that. Wonder if she knows he's a cubi?
Abel seems a bit overqualified for the hostess position. Trap or no, who could resist that... "perky" greeting.
And the perspective isn't that bad(or perhaps I'm too used to failed attempts at it). The problem seems to be that most of her is from an angle looking up, yet her head is pointing straight down(which could be what you meant, and I'm just misinterpreting, it just seemed odd).
This might throw Lorenda off thinking Jyrras is gay. if she was thinking that.
I'm now wondering if the same actor is going to do Abel's voice for these comics in the Radio Project--and if so, will he do the same voice or a higher one...?
lorenda's hostility...DERAIL'D!
Funniest comic in a LONG while! Thumbs up!
I cant tell if he looks cute or creapy............. nope, cant think.

That would be a very interesting welcome.
And the fact that he addressed Lorenda as though she were an actual customer was hilarious.
Thanks for making me laugh my hardest Amber,I say any comic with humor in it...I feel like Jy needs to explain a few things as well
(Wheee long time reader, first time poster) I'm going to say it. Abel looks Amazingly hot.. and I am a shamed since I know she be he X_x
I have to admit this is an idea I can see going very wrong, assuming it's not just something he's doing at the moment just for the hell of it. He's bound to slip at some point unless he wants to stay as a girl for the next year or so.
He should just have stuck as a guy. It's not like he hasn't been around (sans wings) during opening hours. That he's suddenly changed sex is liable to be a bit of a giveaway to whatever regular patrons they've had in the last month or whatever.
That and it's going to be a bit awkward if Kria does stop by (and if she does remember him).
As for the voice, yeah... wonder if Jay has a sister?

Lorenda wouldn't care anyway, being mostly creature herself. As for everyone else, well, it'd be easy enough for him to lie his buns off and say he was using a patch, or just "padding" for the sheer humour of the situation. It's not as if it's obvious they're natural at a glance, or say from a distance.
I see llearch's posted while I was tapping this out, and my only comment is that Alexsi said he's helping with the night shift. He's under no compulsion to work during the day as well (ie, when Alexsi or someone else is there to do it).

True. Though the fact that it's day now and he's apparently on duty now (practicing?) kind of threw me.

I don't think he has to worry. A person's sex (unless you have, uh, personal knowledge) is almost always an assumption. He's never said "Hey, I'm Abel, and I'm a male", after all. What's to stop him from saying that he's always been the way he is, and make anyone asking just feel stupid for not being observant. Plus, he could always cloud their mind a bit.
Strangely, all this comic could get me to think about was how weird it must feel to learn how to shapeshift your own vocal cords. I mean, if Abel still sounds like a man here, even a man impersonating a woman, that adds a whole new layer of "disturbing" to this scene. So, my next thought was that he might be shifting his vocal cords to bring his voice up a few pitches.
That must feel really strange when you do it for the first time, opening your mouth and hearing a voice that isn't like yours coming out. It must be strange to fine-tune, too; make the cords a tiny bit too short, and all of a sudden you'd sound like your voice was cracking or you'd just inhaled some helium. Or you could spend a whole day talking like Jeremy Irons, if you made them too long. ;)
On the other hand, I can see a trait like that putting cubi in very high demand as singers. With a little practice, they'd be able to match any vocal range or reach any pitch with minimal difficulty! And, of course, it would make them naturals in the "deep, booming, intimidating voice" and "evil laugh" fields, too. :mwaha
Only have three words to say to this comic, just three. "Lookit dem hips!"
The thighs are nice too though.
i agree with pagan, the female able does have a nice figure. hmm.... i wonder what Jyrass would have to say about abel now? :3
*stares at 2nd panel*
yep Abel porn past the roof now reaching new levels. :3
But anyways Amber did a good job making Abel female and yet still look like Abel... gotta say this version of Abel is kinda cute so I hope this arc won't be the last of lady Abel.

Well, Abel's favourite food
is confusion (http://www.missmab.com/Cast/abel.php).
Abel could well be getting a good feed from Lorenda right now. (Somehow, that just sounds wrong...)
Ah, I knew I'd read something about confusion somewhere... I thought I was thinking of Dan...
... and yes, that sounds all sorts of wrong. ;-]
I must agree that Abel seems to be really enjoying playing the whole "bar maid floozy" bit.
When Jyrras told Lorenda about Abel, wouldn't he have used the masculine tense? Also, wouldn't he have mentioned the fact that Abel was cubi? I think Lorenda was only caught off guard and reacting humorously to Abel's bar maid getup, knowing full well who/what Abel is...

[mullet and bad lipsync]
'Abel is creepy. And arousing. There should be a new, stronger word for Abel. Like creeparousing, or crousing. Yes, Abel is crousing.'
I went "Aheh" which is an unusually positive reaction for a Lorenda-heavy comic.
Only Cubi are allowed to have an impossibly tight figure like that. Still Fem-Abel is a hot Fem-Abel.
I can actually imagine Dan spoiling Abel's fun by explaining this to Lorenda.
This entire comic page is For The Win!
Looking at the page again I think fem-Abel and Lorenda wear the same cup size.
That is if fem-Abel wore a bra.

It seems maybe a little longer than usual, but it's the same length as his normal apperaance a few pages back.

So no his hair is the same, although the style looks a a little more femenine, since the parts of his hair that point upward are not fully shown.

Ah, no wonder Abelita looks so happy in the third panel. Mmmm, beef-flavored confusion.
/yeah, I'm trying to complete the set of 'feminine-modifier Abel' for the thread. We've had Femabel, Abela, I just threw in Abelita...am I missing any?
//although the first panel does seem a bit strange to me for the reason that Lorenda seems to have instantly lost, then regained, her weight. Doesn't seem to be enough bulge in the belly (waist narrower than breasts, for instance) and thunder thighs to match what she looks like in the next panel. Just sayin. THAT perspective is always welcome.

There's an easier solution. Abel should not differentiate between two people/forms, and add some Noodle Implements (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NoodleImplements) (possibly in the form of sources of hot and cold water (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Main.RanmaOneHalf).) Then the only answer Abel needs to the inevitable question is "Fae curse." This nets two benefits: one, it invokes A Fae Did It (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AWizardDidIt), and establishes himself as a sympathetic character (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TroubledButCute). Both deflect further inquiry; So long as he masks each shift with said noodle implements, that is.

I'm sure he is. :P He's too afraid of what will happen if he's found out to go that far....
(And thank you, Goatmon--I realized it was a foolish way to put that question since his hair is a LOT longer in Abel's Story....)
Abletta finding 'er feet during the day shift has the advantage of allowing one to acclimatise and get used to a position, while still having the opportunity to ask questions and get help should something one isn't sure how to deal with comes up(and allows Alexsi to get a feel for how they'll work out befor allowing 'em to take a shift unsupervised, as well as provide tips and basic training should a need for such be uncovered).
It's also, as previously mentioned, fun. And allows 'er to mess with people from a position of lesser responsibility, while Alexsi's presence helps discourage or diffuse trouble should Alberta go too far.
Anyway, all we need now is for a group of adventurers to show up in cross-dressing disguises. :mwaha

Actually I believe he just hasn't learned how to keep his hair suspended yet in Abel's Story.
Comparing the current AS to the current DMFA, it looks about the same length.
Also I think Abella seems like a more appropriate female name. (Twilight Connections notwithstanding)

Well, I feel less gay for Abel now... Though I think I have a suspicion as to why Jy might have been now, as it's been hinted that Abel and Dan may actually be related. Well Amber has thrown us for a loop in the past, and I'm just saying that Jyrras may discover that he's not so much gay, as he loves Dan and Abel more than he would as a friend, but then again I'm biased. Also, I've been hoping Amber had a clever plot in mind when it came to Jyrras being gay having mentioned that in the list of webcomic clichés to build readership.

Does physical shape really have a part in cubi relationships?
I wonder if the importants of female and male relationships in cubi culture is just for the sake of the next generation of kids and cubi don't really think of male and female in long term relationships?

Just a thought. If Wildy repeated her attack at this moment, would it have any effect (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_694.php).
Of course it would.
What, you thought there were no nerve complexes there in women? It's different, but there's still pain. After all, there's pleasure during sex, and there's a fine line between the two...
People are also assuming he did a complete genderchange on the spot and didn't just grow a pair to freak out Dan. (And I can hear the peanut gallery going augh at the concept.)
Don't mind the de-lurk, just reposting something amusing I found elsewhere.
(http://i25.tinypic.com/314f6kw.jpg)
"Stupid sexy Abel..." (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StupidSexyFlanders)
Aside from freaking out Dan, I just thought Abel was just proving the point that he can do the cute hostess thing. Seems like his point has been made to me, but probably not for Dan. :P
Though I wonder what Dan finds so wrong with female Abel, maybe he's just in denial.

If you're the sort of sick, perverted freak who stares at people's crotches, you'll note that Amber has been drawing them differently since Abel shifted. So I think he did a full change, there.
I'm willing to be proven wrong, of course, but about the only person who can prove me wrong on this particular call is Amber herself...

Unless it's been brought up already, Abel could be a master of the ancient ninja art of Tuck-Fu. After all, he's been in a school that offers courses as esoteric as grass-growing for how many years now? Not much of a stretch. :p

Come to think of it, there's probably an entire series of majors dedicated to puns, Freudian slips, and Spoonerisms. Some of the worst pain I've ever been in can be traced back to at least one of those three.
Besides, 'grass growing' is not esoteric. Never been to one of those Oxymoron Institutions known as Agricultural Universities, have you?
There are graduate level courses on the selection, fertilization, and manicuring of turfgrass...then there's the fine art of cultivating the larger grasses such as wheat, rice and corn. There's big money to be had in watching grass grow!

It's actually not that painful. Once you've got everything all set up, just take the same techniques you'd theoretically use to ward off errant thought-surfers and apply them to yourself when you get a bit too, er,
distracted.
As for the initial setup? I'm no expert, and I won't walk through it here of course, but Ace bandages work if you're on a budget and I've heard good things about dance belts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dance_belt) from a friend in theater.

Wait, were we subtly discussing the means for a man to disguise his genitals? I've seen a manga page thrown about most of the degenerate forums, read 4chan and the like, involving such a thing as you describe. So... dunno... And this has been the unwitting audience to TMI Theatre leaving his seat looking delirious.

Yes. And that made me remember one time when I worked for an inventory company. We were inventorying a Fredericks of Hollywood stockroom. They had no sense of organization-we were literally handed garbage bags full of thongs, teddies, feather boas, and roleplay-costumes, and expected to untangle them.
One young female crewmember found something that mystified her and she had to share it with the rest of us instead of just tally it and go on her way. We hear from her,
"Oh wow, look at this cute elephant-head doll! Why does it have these strings coming out from behind the head, though..."
We turn, and sure enough she has something that resembles an elephant's face, about a foot and a half from eartip to eartip, ~6 inch trunk, sans body, trailing two strings.
"And look, the trunk is hollow!" -she stuck her hand behind the face, her fingers puppeteering the trunk, and made trumpeting noises. "Hee, this is funny. What's it FOR?"
...we told her.

I find it disturbing that the same character is fulfilling the fanservice role for both sexes.

I dunno, Abel
is still a dude at the end of the day, so I suppose it boils down to if you consider mental gender before physical when determining sexuality. The better question is, will he drop a Bridget (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DroppedABridgetOnHim) on poor Lorenda
now, or will he wait until Jyrras shows up just to make things that much more awkward?

Is Tuck-Fu a reference to the Ray Finkle character in Ace Ventura, Pet Detective?
My original thought was that Abel is like the Mystique character in the X-men universe. Mystique could relocate her internal organs so that if somebody stabbed her where her heart was supposed to be, it wouldn't hit any vital organs. Of course, some would argue that Mystique was heartless to begin with.
By the way, shape changing in that part of the body is covered (or uncovered) in the Studio Ghibli film Pom Poko.
By the way, it has been said that a proper British formal garden takes a few hundred years to develop. Cubi would be ideally suited to taking the long view in gardening.

Until you observe Abel, you are both gay, and straight for Abel at the same time.

Ah, of course. Now I understand. Jay Maynard, aka the Tronguy, friend of Howard Tayler over in Schlock Mercenary, learned from his mistakes and called out, in particular, the need for a 'dance belt' when making a tightfitting costume for a man. If you don't already know him, click the below links at your own risk!

That right there, is the textbook definition of Schmuck Bait. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SchmuckBait) Both possible definitions.
The worst part is that I've seen Tronguy before. It appears that I subconsciously enjoy pain. Mind being a pal and getting me the bleach?
