Aww, look at them headwings fluttering.  :D

.. and Dan still hides his headwings, I wonder if that will change during his stay in the academy ?
The other cubi might think him weird for not having them out.

The gryphon at the back doesn't have any.  Though they could conceivably be a regular gryphon.

And now back to your regularly scheduled Saia programming:  "When Squiggles Attack 13."

I wonder if Mink is part Limpet? :3

But it looks like Fa'lina chose a less occupied section to teleport Dan into Saia.

I wonder if Abel's ribbing was a jab of him just getting over Jyras. Mink might be very much like Abel in those regards, but Mink's more affectionate personality might grind on Dan for encroaching on his personal space.

I'm fairly sure he's used to it considering miss big fluffy and purple often doing much the same thing to anyone she happens to come across.

More and more getting the impression that Fa'Lina is enjoying this way too much!
Can't blame her though.

I expect Dan to renew his query on the academy's supply of crowbars.

Yes, watching Liatai explode into Mink-fu was quite entertaining. You can't help but love that squiggly giggly wiggly.

My goodness it seems that Mink is wearing PANTS or more accurately shorts.
Amber's getting better at scenery at least

Yay Mink!  The squigglie is back!  Good to see that some things don't change.

Fa'Lina certainly seems happy to have gotten Dan into SAIA at last (and of his own free will, at that), but I get the impression that she's happy to show off the place, as well.  With perhaps a certain justifiable pride in her Academy.

BTW, the last two panels really show how tall she is.  I'm not sure how tall Dan would be in real-world terms (5' 10" [178 cm], maybe?) but Fa'Lina's a lot taller.  What a basketball player she'd make!  :D

She's walking down the street,
Near the Cubi clan of broken dreams.

While the Beings sleep,
Fa'lina with no clan must walk alone...

*aww, I meant it to be funny, but it's sad!*   :cry

I guess they also are new studants and they are with they respective guides.... or maybe this is just a coincidence.

I'd say that's a distinct possibility..They seem to be in some sort of central meeting area   :)

I wonder exactly how common the warp aci are at SAIA? They'd shown up in the previous time we saw the academy and there is a bunch of them floating around now...

man seeing Mink again makes me want to ear wrestle him even more.

I bet my ear tenticals are stronger then his head ones.   

*giggles*

I missed mink he's so cute

For some reason I half expected Mink to have some sort of big scar running down his/her face. Give a little bit of mystery for the passage of time, you know?

Eh, passage of time can be shown in different ways besides manly scars.

You can have embarrassing flashbacks of Mink and Abel getting into trouble and I have no doubt Dan will be adding to the stories Mink will be able to tell other new comers. I see Mink as quite the little chatter box. :3

Lot's of background text was one of Minks specialities in the Abel stories.

I can't help but imagine what this thread would be like, given Abel's description of Mink, if the vote on the backstory arc had gone differently.

Mink!  <3

I'm almost as happy to see Mink as Mink is to see Dan.  ^_^

Sicill:  Given this (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_599.php), I'm guessing there are a lot of them at SAIA.  

In conclusion, yay Mink!  

Edit:  I... just realized that robe isn't covering Dan's back, except for around his neck area.  I am confused.  I'd assumed it was a whole-body thing with slits for the wings.

As empty as the halls are, and as leisurely the students, Saia must be holding classes at the moment. Other images have shown the rush between classes, when it's "everyone for yourself!" I'd guess they're in pairs for the same reason we humans tend to do that whenever we have a spare moment. We love to talk.

Mink seems even more Mink than before, which I wouldn't have thought possible.

Dan's threat? I think he was serious. He's a Cubi in early development, with overactive emotions kicking in. I'd hope that doesn't become too much of a plot complication, but this is an AmberComic. She hasn't botched anything yet.

It looks like it's been that way for a while. While there were a few side glances in the earlier comics, near as I can tell the first time you can actually see his back was: here. (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_290.php)

Oh, you're right.  Props for hunting that down for me.  Thanks!  

Just realized the lyrics at the top are from the Arrogant Worms.  Yay, the Mounted Animal Nature Trail sing along song. 

The display pieces at SAIA interest me; an amphora-looking piece of pottery and a statue.  Student creations?  Historical pieces of art?  We may never know!

Oh yes, Mink, perhaps one of my favorite characters, even though I originally thought he was a girl XD
Yeah...this should be....amusing in the least XD
