Completely offtopic, but since it seems to be the generally accepted style for the young ladies around the pool: When did showing that much underboob become reasonably demure bathing costume? Admittedly the whole social concept of "bathing costume" that doesn't serve specific function is a...

Correction: Poor kids.

I can see several ways this could go well, depending on timescale. Plus, of course, the ways it could go poorly in the short term. That's the nature of relationships, and prophecies.

People are hard.

Poor kid...

"Note to fellow demons: DON'T MESS WITH THE BUXOM GALS. The 8-ball T-shirt isn't just cute, it's a warning."

...She's definitely picked up trained reflex/muscle-memory from =somewhere=. Remember (others may have pointed this out before) that she's carrying most of a society's worth of memories, pushed very firmly into the background but not inaccessible. It may be interesting to find out what else she can...

This raises a question for me: What is the etiquette of teleporting into someone's house? It looks like Shelly didn't "knock" first even in the paranormal sense of the idea. OK, maybe she's classified as "a friend who has the key and can let themselves in"... but I'd think you'd ...

Personal reaction: Even if that's all true up until the conclusion... Humans aren't that simple and predictable, and will often react to being told what they're going to do by deliberately doing something else. Anything else. Whether it's the right answer or not.

Trying to contact Paul regarding a commission (folks may have seen me mumbling about that in comments on one of the recent eBay auctions), and I've been unable to get the e-mail to go thru. Could someone ask him to e-mail keshlam dot cat dot nospam at verizon dot net if he doesn't hear from me soon?...

Glasses: Maybe she's been wearing contacts. Or maybe her eyes just drifted far enough to need 'em. Or maybe they're flat glass and she just likes the look. Wings: Actually, that makes me wonder whether part of the reason sirens tend to be busty is the additional chest muscles needed to drive the win...

On the good side, she now has a puppy her own size she can cuddle.

I sometimes wish my own personal demons *were* real creatures I could isolate and blame. Alas, I have to own them...

I have to point out that Castela quite literally "pulled herself back together" in record time there... Still thinking about yesterday... Sounds like someone botched her extraction pretty badly. Taking a kid away from those it loves without making it hate you can be difficult even in abusi...

Actually, given the princess's introduction, I suspect the mermaids' reaction is "Someone beat her? Who should we be terrified of?" That may take a bit of straightening out. "Hey, anyone can be knocked over if taken by surprise; don't look so shocked. And I bounce right back. And I'm ...

"KARACK!"? Quite a change from "POIT!". Yes, I know, she also made quite an entry... Apparently Monica has picked up a few special effects while we weren't watching. Reminds me of the old story about the wizard who always dropped a small smoke bomb as he teleported out, just to c...

The more I look at this, the more it looks like Monica is channeling a certain librarian. Even the relative scale and pose are correct... Not that this is necessarily the best role model to adopt, but not the worst either.

Gossamer Jaguar Girl: That thought did occur to me, Cricket manefesting her own guilt... but the representation of Monica (outside of the supernatural special effects) is a bit too accurate for someone who hasn't met her. So I'd say Monca is actually present, though we may be seeing her thru a filte...

Hm. I had my doubts about this entrance. On the other hand, given Cricket's issues (her own and her clan's), a quick dominance display might not be a bad idea. "Let's get this out of the way now: You do NOT mess with me. Have a cookie, dear?"

Ah. Better. Still poor impulse control and sense of proportionality, but at least she's aware of it and is fighting it.

Yeah, a good role model for controlled power might help. And Monica has become that. Partly thanks to Nudge letting her see what happens if she loses control.

OK, I know the fae believe in "don't get mad, get even". And that she's the supernatural equivalent of a Mafia princess. And she's powerful enough that an unrestrained impulse can have serious consequences. Even so... that's an image I really didn't need. She's a juvenile, and teenagers ar...

In that final frame it seems that Atsali's bust has reduced somewhat. May just be accidental drawing-to-drawing variation... but given how suddenly she developed it's clear that there's some shapeshift involved, and I wouldn't be entirely surprised to find that the release also reduced psychological...
