2016/08/15 [DMFA #1687] - The magic of Purple

Tapewolf · August 15, 2016, 06:38:13 AM

It's interesting that this Viv is openly a succubus. It makes some sense, e.g. that 'cubi often obsess over fashion or clothing.
On the other hand, it's a risk. I hope she doesn't fall foul of Hizell's new purge.

As for Regina, hopefully she'll get better at it with practice. The whole on-the-job training thing.

EDIT: As for her clan, I can't see a mark at this time, but I see resemblances to Piflak.

Well, purple is her colour.

Juvenile, jejune, simplistic pablum... but accurate!

(I like magazine quizzes, and I'm 23. Does...does that say bad things about me? >>; )

No. Only if you believe them to be accurate. ;-]

I wonder if her full name is Violet.

... which, of course, leads me to wonder about Ms Beauregarde...

NEW 'CUBI CHARACTER!!

Personally, I'm getting a "Hrienth" vibe from her.

Could Regina be crafty enough to do research on Viv and make sure that she specifically would get purple?

Tapewolf · August 15, 2016, 11:17:45 AM

Regina is liable to have a probationary period anyway, so if she is useless, they can easily get rid of her.

I got green.

Honestly, I laughed myself silly about this strip at work.
And, purple is indeed awesome.
Also, siamese cat cubi = instant approval.

Honestly, I spent half the strip expecting the joke to be: "But that's exactly what we're looking for here."

Kinda hoping for an angel character myself. ;3

Yeah, but you would. ;-]

I get a Piflak vibe from her too, though she could be a Hrienth or Nact'Larn - a good outfit adds bonuses to a seduction roll. She may also be from a more "humorous" clan, given the way she hires Regina based on getting purple on a silly quiz, though I don't think I'd go so far as to say Dimanika. I can't imagine Regina having much regard for any publication with a Dimanika in power XD (well that, or she'd fall for it completely and buy clown shoes to compliment her purse)

Does anyone else think Viv's feather ruff looks like it's actually attached to her?

I was wondering if it was a stylistic thing, but when it's shapeshifters involved, anything is plausible. If you can do it, why not use it for fashion?

That's what I thought too, yes.

I have to personally wonder if she has an Identical Twin Sister, wouldn't matter with Cubi but whatever, that will be the complete opposite of her whenever she runs into Regina leaving her completely confused as to why Viv goes from liking her to hating her at the drop of a hat.
