So Mink is either lying in a bouncy way (I doubt, he seems such a good squiggle D:) or something really did happen, hrm.
Hey she's from Kish'Ta's clan, cool I'm actually recognising things!
That I did not see coming.
I guess Mink is just naturally irrepressible and that after a few decades or so of mourning he eventually bounced back to the way he is now.
Something else that intrigues me is that Mink is using the UK term.
Kish'Ta clan member at the front...
EDIT: Ninja'd
Outninjaed with an edit no less :) But that was me double checking the spelling.
Hey if Mink has a British accent that might be why I like him so much, and I mean not glass tongue that everyone assumes we have. That said have heard a few Amercians say mum stead of mom so guess it varies.
We all get sad when family member dies but hey I had to through it too so I know the feeling so much.
Wow. I was having a nice chuckle imagining Mink speak. Then... then I read the last panel of the comic. That hit me like a ton of bricks...
This makes me wonder... who murdered Mink's mom?

Anecdotal remark: Back when Amber cameo'd RJ ("Do you think about your mum with that kind of mind young man!") I vaguely remember telling her Australians say "mum" and not "mom". Mink could be a cheery Aussie instead of an amusing Brit. ;p
As for the topic of the comic, different people = different ways of dealing with stress. Mink was sad and then happy to the point of being perpetually cheerful. I still wuvs him.
Bonus Edit: Part of Mink's panelful of diatribe involves telling Abel he should take self defense courses and something about being a great fighter. Hm.
Other people have moms too?!
Is Mink supposed to know what it's Abel's mother he's mourning? While I strongly suspect that Abel's just gone "muhh?" at Mink's revelation, it's not impossible that he's a bit freaked because he's let his mind-shield slip and Mink's just blurted his private thoughts out.
That'll teach Abel to dismiss Mink as a matter of course. >:3

I wondered about that, too. Why is Abel surprised? Because Mink knows about Abel's mum, or because Mink's mum is gone, too? Or because she was murdered? Or because Mink had dark and depressing thoughts? Or did Mink just step on Abel's tail?
*Charline appears in a golden chariot... drawn by Charles >:3 * Pull faster you weak little monkey-boy! Ah, maternal murder. It seems we Cubi are cursed that way. So many of our parents have met that fate. I suppose it's natural considering that so many of our parents were cold-blooded soul-stealing monsters everyone hated and feared. And the Dragon-Cubi war didn't help. And even when we have a Being parent on one side, if that parent is ever found out by other Beings... well, you all remember how human dealt with those thought 'witches'.
Coping mechanisms would seem to vary dramatically, mainly depending upon emotional affinity. A Cubi with an affinity for hate or sorrow could dwell upon the murder for centuries, vs those with joy or pleasure as their emotional entree.
I've been dwelling on my Mum's death for 5,000 years. AND I STILL HATE ANUBIS FOR IT!!! HATE HATE HATE!!! >( *whips Charles!* Back home! I have brooding and scheming to do!

I don't think Mink knows about Abel's mom dieing. He was just commenting on how he felt suicidal after his mom died. And that anyone who loses their mom is usually sad.
Well... that was unexpected.
Offhand, I wouldn't say that Mink is really over his mother's death, so much as he has learned to cope with the pain in his own way. But yeah, dead parents is common enough in fiction that you'd think they'd have a support group at SAIA for it.
"I miss her... I miss her so much! ;_;"

I think Mink might be clueless as to Abel's Mom dying. But then again if you considered that Mink had to get over his mom dying he might have considered the feeling that Abel is giving of and was making a comparison and trying to ease Abel's mind.
Abel's suprise might be coming from thinking that he might just get over his mom's death and end up like Mink. Mink seems to go through life with a jump and a skip and Abel might over inflate that to just not caring about their being parents any more in his more grieving state of mind.

With the teacher of course being from Siar's clan, if they weren't pretty much all dead that is =/
Well, there' probably some other clan too, with misery as their affinity =P
And also I'd say being murdered is quite a likely form of death when you outlive millenniums <.<
Wow, Mink's mom was murdered?! D: I wonder who did it? Was it during the Dragon-Cubi war? :confused
Well I can understand the suicidal thoughts (been there, have moved on :)); but I'm glad to see that Mink is being happy again! :3 At least I hope so, I will admit hearing this and now the fall, I'm wondering if he is truly well.... :(
Makes me wonder just how old is the squiggly :P and whether he's a similar victim of circumstance like Abel, considering he's likely part Mythos (or some kind of weird being combo we've haven't seen before)
Interestingly enough, two thoughts come to mind.
First, while I wouldn't have guessed it outright by any means, I can't say I'm surprised that Mink's mother was murdered. A number of people try to hide their pain/misery through cheerfulness. That, and being stalked by misery cubi tends to make it a little obvious.
Second, his (still seems female to me, for some reason...) "clumsiness" makes perfect sense, being a part of the Kish'Ta clan. After all, what is Abel's reaction when he sees him take a sudden dip off a ledge, as in the last comic: A sudden, intense burst of fear at the thought of losing him. Now if only he didn't have to resort to such methods, he wouldn't shave off quite so many millennia off of Abel's lifetime.
But that isn't very fun, is it? :giggle
Uh-oh, shouldn't have said that, Mink....
Oh wow.
I was
not expecting this.
Y'know, one of my biggest fears when Mink showed up was that Abel would eventually explode on him and chase him away,
thus beginning an apparently long pattern of burning bridges. (http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1049.php) I really hope I'm wrong. I love Mink and don't want the squiggly to get hurt. :< IMAGINE WHAT THAT'D DO TO MY ABEL/MINK FANFICS.

Well, yes, but I don't think Mink's cheeriness is a facade. It seems more like a coping mechanism. I think his optimism is the real deal - I kinda feel like that Abel's going to learn something from Mink in moving on. Devin gave him
the same spiel. (http://missmab.com/Comics/Abel_54.php) You can't really "get over" personal tragedies, but you can overcome them.
So more or less, I think Mink's like "Well, bad things happened to me because I felt miserable, but while they happened and while that was terrible, I've moved on because you can't feel sad forever."
That's a personal guess though, lulz for speculations.
QuoteSecond, his (still seems female to me, for some reason...) "clumsiness" makes perfect sense, being a part of the Kish'Ta clan.
Mink isn't from Kish'Ta Clan.
His clan marking was seen on his buttcheek in the last page. It's a purple
ass-triforce biohazard pyramid.
In that first panel it looks like Mink's pushing Abel into that succubus's chest....
<.<
>.>
Well that's one way to feel like a total d**k.
On a side note — does anyone else think it's somehow fitting, looking back at her Clan Leaders page, that a 'Cubi of Kish'ta's Clan would shape her warp-aci into something even more like a balloon animal than they usually are...?
As for the other shoe (size 14) that Amber just dropped... <looks at watch> come on, next Monday, hurry up and get here!

It doesn't. Mythos don't necessarily have a normal male/female gender, there are other wholly different sexes as well. I think people call Mink 'he' because he doesn't obviously have breasts...
QuoteAlso! I didn't know Mink was part of the Kish'Ta, Isn't his clan marking on his rear or is that something else?
He isn't, the succubus in first panel is, though - see the symbol on her warp-aci. Mention of this appears to have confused a number of people...
Aw crap... It's also ALWAYS the ones that act like they're in the least amount of pain you have to watch out for...
And I doubt Mink's statement was intentional, just one of those "super-crappy-timing" things.
*Sits back and waits for "Mink's Story".*
My initial reaction to that comic pretty much matched Abel's. That, and I finally know what the adage "thoughts coming to a screeching halt" means.
Of course this would explain his bubbly behaviour in a logical if sad way. Though the good thing for us of course is that this might deepen Mink's character quite a bit and make him even more interesting than he already is.
So yeah. *Goes and joins the "Mink's Story" queue*
So now we'll shift into a 100 page sidestory of Minks backstory... >:3 :rolleyes :P :3
You don't expect people like Mink to say sad things. It just doesn't concur with the reality in your mind.
So the yesterday's DMFA comic is about Abel, today's comic is about Abel, and no doubt all next week will be about Abel.
So much for Dan and Mab. Welcome to the All-Abel channel! :-)
I could see how Abel would react angrily, assuming that Mink has read his mind uninvited.
I can also see that this is a key decision point for Abel. Does he let someone else in or continue keeping everyone at wing's length? Current odds are 4-1 in favor of Wing's Length.

until 200. that doesn't mean she'll necessarily stop there. The 200 was likely just a rough target so long ago.
I shall make my first post here an intriguing one, ponder this- What if Mink's mum was that one mythos that was one of Abel's childhood friends who later lived with/worked for his family and was murdered by Aniz? :U What was her name anyway...?
(edit)- Found it, her name was Hennya.

But Abel came to SAIA right after that, and met Mink fairly soon afterwards. I'd think that Mink would be sadder than this (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Ab_044.php).

Oolong has also interacted with Mink in Abel's presence, and referred to Mink by name (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Ab_061.php). For Mink to be a figment of Abel's imagination, many other things would also have to be hallucinations. At that point, we would have to stop thinking logically about the story (albeit sometimes in an illogical manner), and what would be the fun of that.

A cursory glance through the comic later, it pattered to garner myself some attention as it were. There hardly seems any, in retrospect, reason to illicit such an action. Certainly it stands against my creedence, what with absconding from all and every, perhaps I shall live to regret it.
Alas we live in the moment.

Abel, give that boy a hug. Now. Do it. No questions. HUG HIM!
So someone who has gone through what may be a similar pain to Abel's (not the same, just similar) turned out this bouncy, and he turned out like he did. Interestink. We should learn more about Mink. How old is he? Why did he latch on to Abel? Will something bad or good happen to him in the near future? Also, quick question: do most students stay at the school for as long as they can?

Mink is less than 58k years old, that's all we really know. It looks like he's still at the Academy if the introductory pages of the Clan Leaders arc are to be believed.
His clan seems to keep its members mostly in the Academy by the looks, presumably to avoid Hizell snacking on the rest of them...

IIRC, it was one of those donation war things. Contenders were Regina and Abel. Winner received a 200 page backstory.
...Abel only won by about 10 bucks [Amber lost, here, folks-I can't think of anybody who would want to draw that many spots.]...but Abel won.
That being said, I bet if you take the average number of spots from the last 5 pages of backstory and compare them with the average number of spots of 5 pages of Abel pre-backstory, you'll see a difference.
Wohoo, project.

I can't see Regina having any depth at all. Abel's like an onion,
he makes you cry he smells he's got layers upon layers, while Regina has all the depth of Paris Hilton. I'd rather read the backstory of the basement rats than of Regina. Fluffy, even!
Fluffy isn't canon, besides Fluffy's story has already been told.
Now, Fa'Lina's story on the other hand, that's a story I'd like really to read. :)

I figured that took place past tense. I.E, during Abel's backstory.
I just noticed that the Succubus in the first panel is of Kish'Ta's clan(Kinda late, I know >.>)
But the funny part is that according to the clan pages, Kish'Ta members have overly sharp teeth. This one however has a beak for a mouth XD
