12-7-06 Xander! Nooo!

[Akisohida]

New Abel Story up. Kinda sad, though. Do not want to say too much yet since many may not have read the new Abel Story yet.

Edited to take out a wrong comment about THIS being why Abel hates blood. Damaris pointe dout that Abel threw up earlier because of blood. ^.^

*taps*

[Zedd]

That wasnt expected....

[Aisha deCabre]

   Whoa...man...there's a nasty shocker...

Should've seen that one coming.  In a story you seem to always have a storm after the calm after all.  Poor Xander...

On a bit of a lighter note, I did like Devin's remark about feathers.

[Aridas]

I'm not sure whether that's a yay or a screw you to the people who called it... I was sort of leaning towards NOT maimed, though. At least people can stop speccing about what's been over and done with.

[Stygian]

Aw hell... there goes loads of my theories out the window. Don't you dare die like a bitch, Xander!

Still, this means murderous rage or psychosis for Devin. Which is fun.

[bill]

That settles it, we need a DMFA dead pool.

[xHaZxMaTx]

As I have already said to Aridas, he may or may not be dead, maybe he's just unconcious or something.

[Faerie Alex]

Well...guess that means that he's not that Cubi. He couldn't be if he's dead. Unless he's had children...

[Aridas]

"HE'S SLEEPING D,:"

[Kenji]

"HE'S SLEEPING D,:"

Like a bloody lil baby.
...
Pip pip, what what.

[Akisohida]

Now that people know, I can comment more. I believe Devin is going to flip because Xander is dead (horribly wounded, get injured and put in danger, and Abels 'cubi powers are going to awaken while he casts spells at the enemy (he knows magic, remember?) and while his wings are changing, he is going to think it is magic untill the paladin tells him it is cubi powers, either before attacking him or after attacking him.

[Damaris]

Keep in mind- this isn't necessarily why Able hates blood.  He had that puking jag earlier in the river.

Poor Xander.

[Gareeku]

Noooo! Xander!

[Zaon]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO T-T XANDER
DON'T DIE ON US

[Stygian]

I can but nod at Akisohida's last statement and declare that it would be a very logical continuation.

[superluser]

Man, that must be a *bitch* coming from a funeral, and then having to prepare for another.

I'll make it no secret that I'm not fond of characters who are created just to die, so that the ``real'' characters can have some epiphany.  I suppose it would be too much to ask for a Xander arc?

[GabrielsThoughts]

Strangely enough I foresaw this happening, this  is also why I'm vauge and ambigious when I do my fancomic lest it become out dated.

Keep in mind we don't know it is xander at this point, I only noticed a pale green hand, Xander could have just as easily lobbed it off at the wrist because it went bad and has since replaced it with a chainsaw.

[Psaakyrn]

Well...guess that means that he's not that Cubi. He couldn't be if he's dead. Unless he's had children...

It's not as if cubi cannot return from near-death experiences ( http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_157.php ).. But still, it's rather unlikely, unless there's some form of strong emotion to absorb around, and etc.

I wonder though, when Xander last spoke, was he really referring to Glory, or something else he sensed? Or more importantly, why exactly did the fiends return to the watchtower, what did they miss? (if it was something they missed,  or they could've been alerted to something they want..)

[e_voyager]

you can't help but feel form him still he may not be dead yet. there is a Chance he's just wounded

[AndersW]

I am wondering what the blue mark in the second to last panel is.  It is on the right border, above the bloody hand.  To me it looks like a blue paw, like the clan marking of the home-ec teacher in SAIA.  Seen here third panel, on her chest.

[xHaZxMaTx]

Hmm, good eye.  It's blurry, whatever it is, so it's probably in the background.  It's looks kind of like feathers on a wing.  But the only person there with wings in Abel...  Also, there's seems to be a fireball either hitting it, or flying past/in front of it.

[Psaakyrn]

Frankly, it's likely to be another shield, considering it's faded as though it's in the background. (there are 3 in Glory's team after all, and I don't think the other two would just stand there while fireballs are flying about.)

Is Abel having a headache? He has his hands on his head.. (and I don't think it would be a bad guess that there's likely a lot of confusion going on, and especially from Devin..)

Side note: by the way Devin referred to wings, I think it's likely that the fiends are winged too... though lots of things are winged. I was wondering whether "Night Angels" could have been a term used to refer to cubi..

Yeah, I'm betting it's Dorian.

I was wondering whether "Night Angels" could have been a term used to refer to cubi..

Given the succubus/incubus myths, and the hypnagogic phenomenon that may have given rise to it, I wouldn't be surprised.  This is taking place in the equivalent of the 17th century, after all.

[Anri]

Meep.

[Akisohida]

I can but nod at Akisohida's last statement and declare that it would be a very logical continuation.

Since it is logical..It is not what is going to happen. We know Amber enough to know we will never know what she will do next, you know? I do still stand by the speculation of mine further up, though.

*does Vader voice*

NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[Kasarn]

Can he just kiss him to make it all better?

[Caswin]

And no comments on the first-panel line?

I laughed... <<
