I'm looking forwards to the persecution complex arc.

"As a ___________ I take offence at _________ and consider you ________ist for saying so."

Mad libs and DMFA, together at last.

Anybody else remember the Boondocks strip where Jar Jar Binks left his stereotypes (``Jar Jar sho `nuff likes to shuffle'') behind to become the Gungan formerly known as Jar Jar?  That would be entertaining phase for Jyrras to go through.

Contrariwise, if he gets a rainbow-colored equal sign bumper sticker, I am going to personally drill a hole out of this universe and into the DMFA universe to talk some sense into him.

First the "DP arc + People will find Dan attractive" comment and now this? You're trying to summon horrible fanfiction, aren't you?

Also, I'm slightly disappointed that you didn't dive into how we see the Fae Curse Mark even above clothing (unless this has happened before). :P

Agreed 100% - I got linked to it a few days ago at 2am ("Oh, just one last check of a few sites I frequent...") and then, around 6am, I finally managed to drag myself to bed.

On the plus side, I managed to significantly increase my trivia knowledge through it.

*Charline tsks*  Poor Jyrras.  His mental state is crumbling rapidly, his hormones are obviously totally out of whack.  He needs to be fixed!  *grabs a pair of pliers*  And I do mean 'fixed'.   >:3

*Charles :eek *  Uhm, I'm totally not gay!  Totally utterly not!

Speculation: DP kidnaps Jyrras and puts him in the shiny leather bikini. :D

Wait, never mind. Jy isn't a fae. And he has the fae curse, DP would go nowhere near him.

Would someone else have to clean her off the walls, or would she be a self cleaning mess?

Also something that just occured to me, isn't Deebs supposed to stay indoors. The whole creating life bad thing? Yet she's outside right now, with a shovel. Someone may notice this.

With the flag there, maybe they'll just think she's just part of the group? >.>

I missed that, although since it's a warning it makes logical sense for it to do that.  And I have a vague feeling that it did come up before in any case...

I didn't think there was much to say about that. Fae clearly want their curses to be noticed.

Knowing you, that was among the first five things you asked about it when it appeared ;)
Though there is a tiny chance you might just be thinking of the whole "Cubi mark also shows up on shapeshifted clothing" issue. *helpless shrug*

But no, I'm not gay. ^^;

When I was reading from the beginning, I thought Abel was going to be the gay one with the crossdressing and all. Or that would have been too easy...?

Well actually, at least 80% of crossdressing done through history has been by straight guys.
However, knowing Abel, who can say. ;P

Someone with less scruples than I could probably write a nice conspiracy theory linking the two.
DP was revived by Mab and Pip as part of their evil-whatever-the-hell-they're-doing-plan. During the resurrection process, they somehow kicked his latent homosexuality into overdrive, thus making him seek out anything even remotely as homosexual as he is. Mab and Pip knew that Jyrras would try to deal with his homosexuality in a numerical sense (hence the quota), and assuming that the quota is measured in some sort of gayness*time units,  then Jyrras is making up the deficit by being hyper-mega-super-ginormously flaming gay, far outstripping the levels of gayness of anyone within miles.

As such, DP will be attracted to him, stalk him, attack him, and attempt to shonen-ai him to death. Wildy's in on the plot too, as she deliberately inserted the shonen-ai-to-death into Janus Bond so that when confronted with someone actually trying to do it, Jyrras would think that it was just some deranged fan and not an actual threat. Jyrras wouldn't recognize DP, after all, since he didn't go on the big quest early on. Because of this, Jyrras will simply ignore DP instead of somehow thwarting him.

Mab and Pip point Dan in the direction of DP, making sure Dan doesn't discover them until DP is about to begin shonen-ai-ing Jyrras to death. DP is defeated again, and Jyrras is mentally scarred from the attack. In a hugely orchestrated soap opera that takes over a year, Mab subconsciously influences everyone that Jyrras knows to abandon him for one reason or another - even old acquaintances from years back, who simply pop in to say "I hate you, Jyrras!" and leave without another word. This entire process drives Jyrras insane and he finishes the doomsday device that was up until now just a small idea floating around in the back of his mind. This doomsday device destroys the entire (and relatively unimportant) dimension, much to Mab's delight, who then moves on to some other insignificant dimension and begins anew.

Not my best crackpot scheme, but it'll have to do.

At least he seems confident in himself for a change.  I'm sure that the affect of coming out will wear off and he'll return to normal soon enough.

Jyrras is still awesomely cool in my book. A giant, rainbow colored, mecha gryphon could be interesting... :P
