WHAM!!

So that whole thing with Devyn and Jordan was a fakeout!? Did NOT see that coming!

Yeah, cue the radio static...

As I pointed out yesterday. I swear, if they find a periscope flashlight and a pocket radio that only plays static...

I'm getting some serious Silent Hill vibes here. The blood, the chain-link fence, the altered architecture...oh my god is that PYRAMID HEAD BEHIND YOU!?

I lean toward it being a siren thing. Enables them to eat people without worrying about facial expressions or body language. You're assuming sirens eat people. It's already been established that parts of Greek mythology are propaganda, so I rule that out as an authoritative source. And we've had no...

Whatever. My point stands.

On the subject of expression blindness as an adaptation to a diet of humans: Since this is the Wapsiverse rather than the ActualGreekMythologyverse, we don't know that sirens eat humans. It's entirely possible that this is just as false as vampirism being transmitted via bite. Also, just because Dev...

If we get a vote, I'm stumping for Alien Space Bat!

it lessens when she's not in a stressful situation. Recursive speech loops are extremely common in her age group. Their thoughts fly so fast, their mouths just can't keep up. It's not so much an impediment as a stage in speech development. Also, it really isn't a reaction to what we think of as str...

Shouldn't this thread be in General Discussion, not Daily? Just a thought...

This is a critical moment. Part of the reason Atsali has valued her friendship with Da Bears is that they provided some shelter from the horndog boys who've been sniffing around her. Now...there's every possibility that she'll feel as if Nadine has been doing the same thing. If she stays calm and th...

Atsali: Don't tell me; tell them!!

Aunt Jin is completely missing the point here. Atsali's problem isn't that she accepts others' judgement -- she already knows it's bullshit. Her problem is that knowing it's bullshit doesn't stop it from happening. She's looking for advice on how to handle that.

TheCollector wrote:Ah yeah! Atsali didn't freak out on Nadette or anything!

I don't think she had time. That expression in panel one suggests that she's still trying to process what just happened. And then, well, something else happened...

Thor wrote:"Grandma Lily" does seem a touch strange though, only because there is no other Grandma requiring the addition of the name in order to distinguish.

Perhaps Atsali isn't quite comfortable just calling her "Grandma" yet, so she adds the name to get a little distance.

And what are the commercial possibilities of ovine aviation?

This may be leftover Ethetian stuff, or her Incubus heritage manifesting, or a weird synergetic combination...but let's all remember, it's not necessarily an entirely good thing. Depends on several factors, most critical of which is how in control of it she is.

Yeah, I've gotta agree with Atsali here. Not funny. Really not funny.

Except to us, of course...
