Watched a couple of episodes on cable today, first time I've seen one in years!
A friend borrowed copies for a movie night, and after my son started watching them, and having fun, got him a box set every Christmastime...well, that and the Real Ghostbusters.

That was... unexpected.
So. Lots of questions. Why didn't Atsali's facial markings show up, where are the legs taking her (and why), just how strong ARE they that they can carry Atsali, who is no light weight (or is this just a show and i should really just relax), what WEIRD sort of psychological quirk on 'Sali's part could lead to something like this, and what's happening to the others who got sucked into Nether? And did Atsali ACTUALLY scream "WTF?!" The nerd.
We'll see what happens next.

I imagine the facial markings didn't show up because those are the legs of a student, and they innocently bumped into her.
Last I remember, they showed up when Thymbris was wearing her "Underworld Uniform," which was creepy as all-get-out.

Well, halfway . . . the reflexive swing was predicted yesterday.

Um, she's a siren/succubus who just went through puberty . . . her hormones are so high they're in orbit . . . and she's at least attracted to girls . . . I think the symbolism is pretty obvious, even the part about the legs taking her away and thereby absolving Atsali of responsibility . . .

So is she being carried away someplace in particular, or are the legs just running around randomly like a chicken with its head cut off?
Also, its not wearing a tie. Isn't that against the school's dress code? Scandalous!

We know she likes boys, too. Remember the whole thing with the faun/satyr Jacob earlier this year?

It'd be interesting to see this whole sequence animated. Possibly translated into the classic Scooby-Doo style.
