    Padded bras are a thing you know.  While Grace is large she not freak out over level large.  I'm going with either the pizza girl is Smoke or she sees Jeremy behind Grace like Ashley did when she first got there.

     

    It certainly makes more sense for Dan to choose someone established as a person who likes to gossip to show up at a moment where they could get potential gossip material.

    We don't know if the MSHS crew knows her, there's the potential for Diane to recognize her from the cafeteria speech thing she did (if she was paying attention to who all was talking there) but if they do, and they see her delivering pizza, they might freak out at the possibility that she's seen Grace transformed and blab about it to the school.


  2. Ok so after some discussion on discord, I'm even less certain about the pizza girl being Smoke.

    HOWEVER....

    Grace still has her boobs enlarged, the pizza girl is a gossip at the same school Grace goes to, who may likely have seen Grace a number of times over the past year.

    What if Grace's luck with Change Blindness is about to run out?

    Oh I'm not saying it's impossible that they are the same person, I'm just not 100% sure on it.  I know there has been some talk about The Dan saying he was trying to avoid the new person every time thing he normally does, so I'm not totally shocked that there might be an overlap of characters.  I'll grant that Smoke being the pizza delivery person was NOT something I though of, assuming that is what is going on.  For all we know she's seen Jeremy and is freaking out from that... 

    It would be funny though, Gossip Girl does go to the same school as Grace, if Gossip Girl was Smoke, she'd have spent the past few days trying to avoid Grace, which probably would have been much more difficult if they happened to share any classes, and then to come face to face again while delivering pizza? :D

    I'm not sure we've seen her before, but I'm willing to go with that.

    Well, there's 3 features they both share, the side-cut ponytail hairstyle (the ponytail of course looks like it does now because Dan likes using that look for people who are shocked), the earring is a small hoop style by the look of it, and the nose is the exact same shape.

    So either same person, or twin, not like we don't already have a few examples of pairs of characters that look alike, like Elliot/Ellen, Susan/Diane, Tedd/Nanase.

    Well, one things seems certain, the delivery person is female, and we've seen her before, question is though....does her reaction mean that she's Smoke?

    I mean, we don't know the gender of Smoke, and I would expect that if Smoke ran into Grace again, they'd likely have a similar reaction, especially if they were delivering pizza, and someone who scared the bejeezus out of them a few days ago happens to answer the door.

    The watches were designed to allow NANASE use those forms. And she would need full clone forms.

    Also, Tedd even explicitly said that it could be useful for Susan if she would be transformed.

    I was talking about the watch that Tedd gave Susan afterwards with other forms.

    None of the forms Susan requested would really be useful if she was already transformed, I mean sure they'd get her close to her original form, but I would expect that she wouldn't want her mom seeing her in any of them.


  7. 1 minute ago, mlooney said:

    I'm not quite sure how she would figure that out.  Granted she's been shown to make a deduction from limited amounts of data, but I'm not sure how she could figure that out.  She doesn't know about the gender swap party just yet.

    I would expect that Diane giving Justin the pep talk would create another instance of "she's acting like Susan again!" which might have Justin mention Susan's pep talk like "it's funny how I've been getting the majority of relationship advice from the two of you" and maybe a "at least only one of us is transformed" would slip out.


  8. So Elliot's reacting did trigger memories, but then Justin managed to squash them with images of Luke.  Looks like we're not getting a "pep talk from Susan: part 2" after all.

    Though would have been great if it was Diane this time around, she's seen Justin with Luke and would probably have been the better person to talk about that, could have also been an opportunity for Diane to figure out that Justin was "the girl" that Susan kissed.


  9. 5 hours ago, hkmaly said:

    Well, yes, but that was out of continuity. In-continuity, Nanase didn't ever saw how hot her mom was when 18. Well, unless she saw some photo I guess ...

    I kinda suspect that Mama Kitsune doesn't talk about her high school years much, she probably didn't elaborate on why she didn't like Adrian as a teacher.

    5 hours ago, hkmaly said:

    No: the watches are explicitly clone form with the variants pre-mixed in computer. Of course, he CAN pre-mix them on computer again. He DOES have the backups - he didn't scanned Susan in that story, he used her existing backup.

    I mean, we didn't see it, but Tedd could have felt that a modified hair spell would work better than a full on clone form variant just to change hair styles.


  10. Just now, mlooney said:

    Could be.  That does fit the flow of the comics, but we still need to know what he was whispering to Ashley to really know what is going on. 

    Pure speculation, Elliot doesn't know that Justin felt so strongly about him at Grace's birthday party and the effect that Elliot had when he said Justin looked cute in female form, Elliot might have been thinking back on Grace's birthday, and is about to put foot squarely in mouth by inadvertently triggering those feelings again.


  11. 12 minutes ago, mlooney said:

    Just a slight change of subject, why did Elliot change back to hsi masculine form between this comic and the last one?  I mean I know the meta reason, but why did he do it in universe?

    Don't know, but maybe it had something to do with what he was whispering to Ashley on the previous page? I would assume that he wasn't paying attention to Justin transforming (beyond maybe the super busty form), because he was busy whispering, and then transforming himself, then got to see Justin's final form.

     

    But is it even his final form? ;)


  12. 35 minutes ago, mlooney said:

    Getting a "you're hot" response from Elliot seems to have caused Justin to have a mental blue screen.

    Who's mom would Ellen be referring to here?  Apparently Dan accidentally designed Justin's form to look somewhat like Bakugo's mom from "My Hero Acedamia" :

    550.jpg

    Dan on discord:

    Quote

    Mention of My Hero Academia finally made it click why I thought of "someone's mom" (or, at least, a possibility). I unintentionally dressed Justin very similarly to Bakugo's mom o_o

    Just now, hkmaly said:

    ... if he knew he can get such response from ELLIOT he wouldn't bother waiting for pizza.

    I'm wondering if Elliot's reaction has reminded Justin that he still has feelings for Elliot, does Susan need to give another pep talk?

    Just now, hkmaly said:

    Ellen's mom is young, so she doesn't see that big problem with it ... but for Susan and Nanase, the combination of "Mom" and "Hot" seems weird. We saw their moms, so it shouldn't be that surprising.

    If Ellen's basing her hot mom comment on her own mother, then Susan's and Nanase's looks are understandable. Nanase's mom is hot, when she's been made to look 18 and given cat features though.

    Maybe this is another "second life" memory though? But then the question would still be who's mom? I feel like Tedd's mom was out of the picture even in that universe, unless it was Edward that left Tedd and Noriko was a better mother, would still be extremely awkward. Archie's or Kaoli's moms are probably seyunolu as well, dunno if they'd be comparable.

    Just now, mlooney said:
    Just now, hkmaly said:

    Also, yes, it's totally scan worthy. Also, yes, Diane, we can scan you too but we already have blonde Susan you can use as backup in case of problems.

    Well, aside from blonde Susan being taller than Diane.

    Does Tedd still have the backup files of the forms she gave Susan 3 weeks ago?

     


  13. Just now, mlooney said:

    I can't think of any time he has.  Plus don't Matt and Justin go to different schools?

    Matt goes to north, so he'd only potentially recognize Tedd again, certainly Elliot, Susan and Sarah if they don't transform.

    Though if Matt delivered pizza to Justin before, that'd change things. Also Matt had to have turned 18 in the past year, he was 17 at Grace's birthday and apparently wasn't supposed to be making deliveries, but my guess would be that the regular delivery person called in sick and Matt was the only other person available to cover it. He should certainly be old enough by now to have been making deliveries legally for a few months.

    Well actually, it pretty much does mean that. If he had infrequent partners, years apart, he might know who Diane's mom is, based on her age, but Susan was described as his descendant. If he's hundreds of years old, and has infrequent partners over hundreds of years, that's still quite a bit of uncertainty. "I was in my actual twenties" says he knows who it was, and  there haven't been others to cloud the source.

    If he's had other partners, they were relatively recent, but still distinguishable by Diane's age.

    I'm saying based on the statement of "without him knowing" there could have been partners that he slept with, and then remained in contact long enough to know they didn't get pregnant, whereas with Diane's mom, Adrian said they had agreed it was a one time thing and that she never came back to him when she got pregnant, Susan's ancestor could have been similar.

    Also, what are the chances there were 1 or more times where Adrian slept with someone, if she happened to sleep with someone else within a couple days and then later found out she was pregnant, just assumed that the father was the other man?

    11 minutes ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Hmm, ... it seemed she enjoyed it, but also was happy to disengage. If nothing else happened since then I'd think she was willing to let sleeping cats lie. But since she is actively pursuing changing her outlook, maybe she sees feminine Justin as an opportunity to further that. If so, she'll probably say so in the next few comics and ask to be transformed male. 

    The last time Susan thought about it, she realized that she could find men and women equally attractive, so technically she doesn't need to transform.

    However....

    15 minutes ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    I guess that would not work out long term for them. Justin was not happy being female.

    The fact that Justin is still firmly into men regardless of form, would mean that Susan would have to consider transforming if she were interested in doing things with Justin again. But as I said before, she doesn't have to want to do things to still think the form is attractive.

    Diane though, looks like she wants to do all the things.


  15. 2 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Susan: "She looks more interested than concerned to me, like an "Ooooh what's this?" kind of expression." - I don't think so; I agree that on the surface, that is what her expression looks like, but what we know of Susan, she doesn't project herself into a relationship, making strides to get there, but not even in the ballpark yet. Her best chemistry so far was with Elliot, and in her mind, that might bear fruition years in the future. So I don't see her thinking "Ooo, hot Justin(a), I want."

    Considering the history between Susan and Justin, Justin has been the only that Susan's been physical with, yes the circumstances were unique, but Susan could probably logically say that he's familiar territory, at the same time though, Justin had said that he didn't want to ruin their friendship and Susan would certainly agree, however I don't see why she wouldn't think that Justin looks attractive here, at least to look at.

    3 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    "... very thirsty ..."  - That could be a euphemism for a few things; did he hint more specifically? I guess she already has           relationship, really, from what we know of her family, she's h their support most of her life.

    Diane wasn't worried about telling her family she'd be dating a girl, in fact, she told them the same day her and Lucy became a couple. Other than that, Dan was just responding to someone commenting that Diane was thirsty based on her reaction, so basically all we got is that Dan agreed with it.

    3 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    "... he is a deadbeat dad ..." - Doesn't seem so. Her mother is rather well off. Of course, it may not be from him.

    Bad phrase on my part, basically I was implying the possibility that Susan's dad has had multiple affairs, and it doesn't necessarily mean remarrying, he could be hooking up with married women, but that's pure speculation.

    Also possible that Susan's mom has a well paying career too.

    3 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    - Yes, but when Pandora said that, he did not have to stop and sort through possibilities, he knew immediately which events were the source of the pregnancies that bore them. It would appear that despite the half-breeds thing, he didn't fire any blanks.

    That's true, he did say there wasn't a lot of moments where it could happen without him knowing. doesn't mean he only slept with two women in his life.

    3 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Justin has boobs in panel two. It's a bit subtle, easy to miss at first, I did not catch it at first glance. (I was going to say, 'they do not jump out at you', but ...) ((Points?)) (((Yes, yes there are ...))) ((((Stop it, you!))))

    Panel 2 is basically Justin's FV1 form, Tedd suggested that Justin start out by not picturing any particular forms and then build from there.

    21 minutes ago, hkmaly said:

    She doesn't want to "have" her, but she may want to watch.

    She might imagine Elliot in her previous form with Justin in panel 3 form.

     


  16. 13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Susan looks slightly concerned; guessing it's about her own reaction to some negative feelings; 'That's not Justin'

    She looks more interested than concerned to me, like an "Ooooh what's this?" kind of expression.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Sarah is pained in some way for Justin. Not seeing how that makes sense.

    I dunno about pained, but she certainly could be thinking the form goes a bit overboard for what Justin wanted.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Nanase is either clearly attracted or ogling but not actually attracted. I suppose in context it should be to the very first form. That form isn't bad, but it's kind of common currency where they are, happens a lot. If she's really that visual, and really likes them that big, then it's odd that she's into Ellen, not chasing after some Lucy clone.

    Ellen's got other qualities that Nanase loves, but Nanase also blushed at a female Justin before.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Grace is cheering, reasons are unclear, but then again, it's Grace. This panel seems random. I guess it's saying, they have emotional reactions and the reasons are not going to be given.

    Grace being enthusiastic about transforming isn't new, she's probably just happy that Justin's doing it.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Ashley seems interested, but probably more like it fits her fantasy world more so than Nanase's keen interest. OK, kind of fits.

    Given Elliot whispering in her ear, maybe she's getting ideas for something for later.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Tedd's reaction is interested, but in what? The magic? Female Justin?

    Both? Maybe Tedd's giving more advice on how Justin can further adjust the form?

    Maybe Tedd's making a comment about Justin thinking about Elliot's earlier busty form? Heck maybe that panel 3 form is the result of someone sabotaging things.

    13 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Diane, ... it seems extreme, but not clearly positive or negative. Guessing either turned on or squicked. The steam clouds suggest turned on. FWIW, that seems extremely out of character; she's about relationship. OK, to be fair, her relationship with Justin is vastly improved, I can see a sudden crush and realization that she's attracted to him.

    Dan's stated that this party has been an eyeopener for Diane in terms of what she's interested in, I can only imagine the things she'll want Rhoda to do with her and Lucy when Rhoda tells her she can do size change magic and such.

    Also Dan's confirmed on Discord that Diane is "very thirsty" ;)

    8 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Ashley is a bit like that as well. She's had one online relationship, so at a distance, and both she and Elliot seem able to not rush into things, to the possible annoyance of others; recall Sarah's complaint about Elliot and the lack of sex? She likes being in a relationship with Elliot, she can be attracted to others, but possibly in ways she would have no intention of following though. I'm going to guess slow burn, not exactly ace. Same with Elliot. They've kissed, and that was a big deal. When the notion of going further was on the table, they ran from it.

    (And it's a bit weird that Elliot's parents allowed for the possibility, and the extent of their advice was 'be safe'.)

    It was suggested that Elliot's lack of interest in having sex is more of a safety measure due to knowing how his Mom had to drop out of college when she got pregnant with him. Wanting to make sure he's ready to start a family is not a bad thing.

    And Elliot's parents know Elliot's at that age, it's not that weird for them to want him to use protection, though "keeping it between girls" was an unexpected suggestion.

    7 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Ellen and Nanase? They make out, but that's multivariate, and not spelled out. From her dream world experience, you'd think Ellen would be open to the notion of sex, but she got her finger burned, and may have a barrier. Nanase seems generally reserved. I'm guessing no type O treasure yet.

    Ellen was burned on the idea of sex with men, I don't think she'd be opposed to sex with Nanase, and there's been a few instances where Ellen's implied having "sexy plans". Also Nanase was quick to suggest to Sarah that "being the same sex" was a better alternative to abstinence.

    7 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Diane and Lucy, again, romantic, platonic, kissing, no evidence of more. Diane, for her part, breaks boundaries, and would seem to be OK with doing more, but recall that she took some pride in her virginity.

    They just started dating, in fact they just had their first date yesterday (in comic time), but they've apparently been about as discreet about their kissing as Nanase used to be about using magic in school, Of course Diane's held off on sex because she wanted to find the right person to have a family with first (which got put on hold when she started getting jaded about dating) she might not rush things with Lucy, but at the same time, Nanase's wisdom above would apply here too.

    7 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Rhoda and Catalina, like Ellen and Nanase. Rhoda is shy, I'm guessing they've held back.

    Rhoda is shy around people she doesn't know, she also held back how she felt about girls out of fear of being rejected by Diane, and we saw her reaction to finding out that fear was unfounded. I think Rhoda and Catalina have done a great deal of experimentation. And again, both being female has perks.

    7 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    Susan needs therapy. Don't get me wrong, I like Susan, but she's still a wounded bird, haunted by her past. Well, her parents. So Mom's not going to fix this. Just the fact of no relationship with Dad is weird and unhealthy. 'I hate you' would be much better; at least it's not a vacuum. I suspect Spock was a safe place to retreat to, hence the Trek fanning.

    Susan has been thinking about it, sure she's currently not interesting in being a participant of "things" but she's not completely opposed to "things" in general and she's expressed the desire to get over a lot of the stuff that's preventing her from enjoying her life, maybe one day she'll find someone to start a family with, that's up to her.

    I think the conclusion she came to at Grace's birthday in regards to her dad is probably the best we'll get to her having some level of understanding, since she was able to apply her experience as a male to what her dad might have also experienced, of course it's possible that he is a deadbeat dad who's been having fling after fling, but maybe Susan's opened up to the possibility that it might have just been a one time moment of weakness.

    8 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    I suppose Dan was raised in some guilt inducing religious household, isn't that the common reason?

    I don't think so, being raised in such environments have been known to result in webcomics of a much different tone.(linked to the first comic just in case)

    Ellen and Nanase at least got unclothed enough to swap shirts with each other.

    Can't really use swapping shirts as evidence when Nanase is capable of doing the swapping magically.

    5 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:

    On another note, Adrian is hundreds of years old, has a recent daughter, and Susan is his descendant. "I must have been in my actual twenties" ... doesn't get much action, does he? You'd think living with a feminine looking boy would spark rumors, no? Not that there's anything untoward to their relationship, just, what is he thinking? Guessing that Adrian was part of a rescue when Noah's parents died, or maybe owed them a favor. It could be just, 'he won't do well with a human family'. Both of them are fated to have a bigger role, so I guess we'll find out more, eventually.

    Either Adrian didn't get much action, did get lots of action and the fact that "less likely for a half-breed to become, or get someone pregnant" and Susan and Diane happen to be the only times when Adrian wasn't firing blanks, or maybe there are a few more half-relatives scattered about. I'm not really expecting to see any other relatives showing up in the comic unless it happens to be Susan's dad or Diane's mom.

    Based on what Elliot is doing here with the skirt they might have taken clothes off.

    Panel 1. You're right, it absolutely does look like something happened with that skirt. "This is the most impulsive thing I've done." - perhaps Sarah was right, Elliot was holding back with her.

    Panel 2 &3. We stopped, we didn't want to stop, and we both recognized we would loose control if we didn't.

    Panel 4. We feel continuing is inappropriate, because even though we're obviously attracted to each other, we are just getting to know each other. I think it's a fair point, sex can overshadow other aspects of a relationship; I suppose it depends on the individuals.

    Panel 5 & 6. If we stay here, we are going to continue. If we want to not do that, we should leave.

    There is something autobiographical in fictional writing, in a meta sense. You get a flavor of the person behind the comic, some sense of their beliefs and struggles with issues, some more so than others. I have the notion that this sequence of events means something to Dan, because it encapsulates how many of his characters respond to relationship.

    I think the makeout session got to the point where Ashley was just starting to pull off Elliot's shirt and the scene we saw had Elliot tucking the shirt back under the band of the skirt. Heavy petting could have also just caused the shirt to become untucked.

     

    Also it hasn't been mentioned yet here and I had missed it too until it was pointed out on discord, but between each panel of Justin's transformations, there's more "click"s.


  17. "Ronin" is someone that could be a good guy, if he stopped being friends with Tony. It's like I get the feeling that it was originally Tony, Ronin and Elliot that were friends when they were younger, and Elliot and Ronin had a lot in common, but when it came to Tony's behaviour, only Elliot had the ability to tell him to shove off.


  18. I too, am wondering what Elliot's whispering, is it a suggestion for something they could do later?

    Panel 3 Justin is pretty much identical in form and outfit to Susan's "Bubble Tea" form.

    Last three panels seem to be trying out Diane's and Tedd's suggestions from earlier before settling on something in between, like panel 8 would have combined Diane's suggestion for hair length, shirt and dress, with Tedd's "no height change", bigger boobs and over shirt, but then panel 9 had Justin want to be shorter but went too short, then panel 10 was correcting that.

    Well if we end up with a month of chibi we will know that The Dan still reads this forum and is trolling us. 

    Well, he's on discord now, the worry (or hope depending on who you ask) is that he's secretly viewing the NFSW channels and getting ideas for risque transformations.

    So not only is it being meta about game rules, it's being meta about rules and mods that don't exist.  You can't see it right now because you aren't in the same room with me, but I have an eye twitch going on right now.

    Parable is heavily inspired by the Fable games, but not copying them exactly, Quality of Life mods exist for other games that allow modding.
