08/15/07 [#807] Scene Change

[Indilee]

I don't know who to feel sorry for - Abel for the impending doom or Dan after Abel comes after him...

[techmaster-glitch]

....
Amber, you are the epitome of evilness. No word can describe how evil you are with this scene change that completely throws us off right when things were getting interesting, as you did so well to point out.

Darn it, I can't even find a good emote for this to lighten it up somewhat.

[Indilee]

Just when we're like, rabid for more, we switch over to the other interesting pair...

Cue the music... DUN DUN DUN *DUUUUUUUUN!*

[AndersW]

I notice that Abel took his shirt off.

[Indilee]

I notice that Abel took his shirt off.

>.> As did I.

[CameronCN]

Ah, lovely. Funny, funny... this sort of strip is one of the reasons I like DMFA so much.

Incidentally, I think Dan's wings are getting bigger. More aerodynamically feasible, therefore. I still think they should actually fly with them...
Whups, I'm wandering...

I wonder what to draw Amber for her birthday?

[King Of Hearts]

Hm... so Abel actually missed with the axe...

...that boy needs more practice I tell you, not cavorting around with that Cubi friend of his.

Life's not like a box of chocolate chip cookies... unless you are a chocolate cookies, in which case then it is.

[Aurawyn]

I can just see Amber right now...

Haha.

[superluser]

I think scene changes are excellent for a series!  It keeps character development moving along at an even pace for all characters, so that you don't wind up with overdeveloped characters and underdeveloped characters.

Also, it allows the author to sneak off and add some unseen action without getting tempted to show it.

As to Abel and Dan, I do note that Abel is capable of reading minds and seems to be calling Dan thick-skulled, and unless I'm mistaken, Dan has not yet gotten a mind shield.

I thought he left Saia with a mind shield... o.o

Thought reading is like listening to a noisy cafeteria, unless you are actively trying to listen to someone, or they are yelling, it's just background noise you tune out.

[KarlOmega1]

Don't do it, Dan!

Anyway, nice pulling the scene change on the viewers, Amber....

[Kenji]

I guess fruit isn't -always- good for you.
Insert fruit on fruit hate crime joke here or something.

[nikename2]

Impending K.O. 

But then what? 

[Indilee]

I'd say then steal his wallet but I doubt he has anything on him... >.>

RUN IT IS WINGZILLA

[e_voyager]

Ah come one Dan likes pain it's addictive. after all if he didn't like pain and terror why would he after years of adventuring decide to more in with his scary and dangerous pain inflicting older sister.

50 foot furry bishounen, would they destroy tokyo or san francisco?

melon is an unusual weapon, and a good waste of tasty, but i have to wonder if the innards would be red enough to freak abel out.... or would he need to be tomatoed?

Love is know the pain of too much tenderness.

[Saist]

* je.saist fires the orbital ribbon cannon at Amber for the comic!

[Distracting]

"Lost Lake resident attacked with watermelon. Details at 11."
*ahem* That would just be silly. I think a cabbage might hurt more, so it's not that bad.

Wouldn't it be something like King Wingdorah?

[Indilee]

"Lost Lake resident attacked with watermelon. Details at 11."

Yes, but is it a vampire watermelon...?

Wait, I was under the impression that watermelons came in only two flavors: Delicious and zombie. Have I been lied to all my live?
Besides, vampirism seems more of a carrot kind of thing.

[nikename2]

Yeah carrots hide in the ground. It would be hilarious though if before he smashs the melon on Abel's head the sun shined and the melon burst into flames. 

[Indilee]

Perhaps there is a new breed of watermelon out there...

[Psychogirl]

Either Able's gonna dodge that, or that's gonna be one nasty headache >.<
Either way, Dan's gonna get it in the end.

[Aleolus]

Ohh, come on!  Don't you remember one of Fluffy's Q&A sessions?  Someone asked if Vampires existed, and Fluffy's answer was "They used to be, but now their extinct."  Therefore, it cannot be a vampire watermelon.

Though I think it would be cool if Amber were to write in say, one last vampire, the last of his kind, who has been living a secret life in the Twink underground, and is planning a major takeover of Biggs' corporation and all his special goodies.

Sounds like an adventure for Dan!

[kaskar]

 And I thought that the scene changes from Janus Bond were cheap. It's a case of 'cliffhanger' ... Bye the way, how does this scene fit into the chapter here, ( All hail Queen Mab ) ... Does the next scene show our valiant adventures returning to the sight of Abel wearing a Melon on his head ?

[superluser]

Melon is enough to freak some people out:


(this is probably my favorite line from Monty Python, and I finally get a chance to use it!)

[Manawolf]

About time we saw someone get there comeuppance.
