It's the same thing that confused (and then squicked) Grace -- most people in our society seem incapable of seeing someone naked or scantily dressed without putting it into a sexual context. If not for that, there would be no more problem with less-aestheticly-shaped people being naked or scantily dressed than there would be seeing them more heavily clothed. Surprisingly, people are more tolerant to other people dressed in swimwear (at least near water), despite swimwear often covering just as little as underwear.

So ... Lord Tedd wasn't as clear as Beta Tedd said? I still think it was a test and if he didn't kill anyone it just means all Tedds passed.

There are actually plenty of ways of literally listing that center in phone book in way which makes it look like some convention center for sci-fi and/or movie studio and would still make the real aliens try it - either if desperate enough or because they recognize something people don't. Bonus points, real aliens can walk around freely, provided they pretend they are in costume. It's harder for people from alternative universes because they don't have anything in common. The funny part is that there MAY be something like that on EGS earth ... and it's operated by DGB, so Magus's best choice would be to go with Elliot and ask Edward. Or, well, let himself be captured. (Magus's second best choice is to wait for griffins and ask THEM if they have something.)

Well it's obvious: now when he has body, he can open the phonebook and find an address of local center for helping people lost in other dimensions ... "wait, what do you mean there is no such center on your earth?"

Or someone in Magus's universe. Lord Tedd may not know that she went to the Moperverse, but I'm sure he knows the way she got there. Nioi is his pet, not researcher. She borrowed that ball. It doesn't imply she killed 11 other Tedds. It implies he TRIED to. Others might survived just like our Tedd did. (In fact, wasn't Beta Tedd one of them?) Also, I still consider the possibility the Goo was supposed to be more like test than way to kill Tedd. Sure, he might be dead if he FAILED the test, but in such case he would be too weak to matter. And there is whole warehouse of artifacts just next to him! ... but wait. Those artifacts were supposed to be inert. There is no manual to any of them. They could easily be deadly traps ...

He might know how to get back home, but was just unable to because he was missing an important detail, a physical body. It's not like he'd be able to just ask someone to open a portal for him, right? Usually it's hard to get back if you don't know where you are. Unless the universes are conventionally labelled (possibly with sequence of glyphs) ...

EGS universe might have relatively weak magic users, but I would expect it's nowhere near the weakest universe, and it doesn't really have so much interesting stuff to steal. Anyone with reliable technology/magic for traveling between universes would likely choose more attractive target. Unless he has some specific motive targeting EGS universe ... like Lord Tedd. Magus, however, DOESN'T have any reliable traveling technology. He has little idea how he got here and we still don't know how - or IF - he plans to return. But even that return may not allow anyone else to come here. Of course, it's also possible anyone coming from Magus's universe will end up on spiritual plane like Magus ... that would be quite potent defense

We didn't saw him cast anything, he was surprised by Elliot, and while it would make sense to have something prepared for fight with Sirleck, he wouldn't risk having ANYTHING cast on himself because it could interfere with dewitchery diamond. On the other hand, we didn't saw him casting flying either. ... speaking about getting more behind, what do you think Ashley is currently doing? Did she also jumped to conclusion?

I understood why Elliot wasn't able to stand against Tara, but Magus is human and is not flying around or anything, and neither does Elliot. They both just hover in place. That doesn't seem THAT much different from what Elliot WAS training. He did NOT used any spell. And he's speaking as if dodging Elliot's punches wouldn't even require any effort from him. I would expect that he would eventually be able to defeat Elliot. But outclassing him this much seems weird. The "clap" is mostly about strength.

... so, Magus WAS going to wake up Ellen. No surprise. Also, Magus might have point with men being physically stronger. He didn't have any problem fighting cheerleadra, and cheerleadra is supposed to be superhero ... and Elliot is supposed to have ASMA training, which shouldn't be THAT much worse in PUNCHING than Magus's battlemage training.

If the CiC isn't required to be out in the field, then there's no need for physical boosts. Studies here have suggested that women are better multitaskers than men so I would think that multitasking would be an essential skill for someone running the country. Even not in field, I would think men way of thinking is better for battle strategy. Women would lead the diplomacy, but if diplomacy fails, the war will be done by men. Of course, it's debatable how would change of sex help with way people think, but that may not stop the division of jobs based on sex. That's definitely not something we know, even less so "obviously".

Quite likely, although the commander-in-chief of army could be man, meaning it wouldn't be one of president roles.

There ARE other options ... It might be the lid for the diamond crate, though that crate is on the opposite side of the window as seen in the overhead shot just after Sirleck's demise, you can see the diamond shards on the floor in front of it. Looking at THAT image however it DOES seem there is one crate open there ...

Quantum physics says that there are infinite many possible directions single photon can be polarized in, but you are unable to measure it. Where did you get the "nothing was really uncountable" bit?

It's possible that most combat spells in Magus's universe scale off of physical strength, similar to how Nanase's fairy punch spell is as strong as her punches. Magus directly SAID that on this page. Seems so. Dan, have characters avoid needless violence by talking to each other instead? How unprecedented! ;-) Well, Nanase was talking with Abraham WHILE fighting. Sounds quite likely to me. It seems reasonable to believe that because magic is so public in his world, that the cycle of system changes was broken much sooner, or didn't exist at all, which would mean that the ability to switch sexes has likely been known for a while. There could still have been a sexist lean before gender changing magic was ever considered, but for all we know they might have been more matriarchal before, heck they might still be matriarchal and the idea of becoming male is considered a necessary step down for them. Magic being public doesn't mean the cycle was broken that much sooner ; could be just few centuries and the gender change itself might be something which was not seriously researched until their universe version of women right movement, which somehow took the turn of turning females into males ... I'm not sure but you may be underestimating the number of possibilities. The correct word would likely be uncountable ...

In EGS universe, seers are wand-makers, kind of wizard, but are not able to get their own spells. Terra used spells, and it did seemed she didn't used wand, but, well, different universe, different rules. IF there are some seers in her universe, it would be hard to recognize them because the rules not only can, but obviously are different there, based on how Magus's magic works differently than EGS primary universe magic. Also, dragons.

Was less likely to do anything. Now that Arthur's experienced what being a Seer is about and how Magic has both changed and not changed, I think he'll be more likely to act, especially if he wakes up and is like "Oh my god, that building full of useless artifacts is now a building full of potentially dangerous artifacts." That still doesn't change what is he likely to do with Magus. Why should he be party to it? He's not seer. It's possible Terra is, but she would probably not qualify anyway because she's using magic of different universe, not speaking about still BEING in that universe. Abraham was seen as a threat because he attacked public school, hurt one teacher and almost killed one of students. No. There wasn't that many of them and they were at ground level - the X Winter is when the ash is high in atmosphere and not coming down fast enough.

The difference was that Tedd was there, as opposed to three young women all of whom she probably felt more comfortable with...And the rather iffy continuity probably helped, too. True. Also, the "myth" was that women are ALWAYS happy, which is quite easy to bust.

An NYPD officer in California is an officer by courtesy only, with no legal authority. (Except possibly in the context of a prisoner transfer - but the prisoner will be handed from one police force or prison-guard force to another, not encountered randomly, and with a bunch of paperwork, prior notice, and scheduling involved.) Therefore wearing an NYPD uniform in California is not impersonating an officer. Ok, THIS answers the legality question. Thanks.

That costume is more akin to Amy Pond's kissogram costume than to any real police uniform. That was the whole reason Susan found it so embarassing. That doesn't answer the legality question.

Funny comparing Tedd's "experiment" with what happened when Susan ACTUALLY got transformation with bigger breast.

To be fair, that was under Edward. Arthur Arthur leads the DGB differently ... and by differently I mean he is even less likely to do anything. Yes, what is Magus afraid of? Almost as if he saw some darker side of DGB that we never noticed in comics ...

Firefox, only addons I use are ublock Origin for adblocking and tampermonkey for the forum layout script, both were recommended by members here. See edit. Wikia is using fastly CDN, which probably has some geographical caching which is buggy enough to give you older version of page because you are in different region and when you refreshed the page it updated.

Ok I see what happened, I don't know why, but your link has the #vandalism in the URL but the page it directs to doesn't have a vandalism section, previous version of the page maybe? I removed the #vandalism from the URL and it loaded the updated page. That's extremely suspicious. Web browsers shouldn't work that way, even with caching involved. What browser did you used? ... ... oh. Right. Wikia is using fastly CDN. Apparently, fastly have some bug in their caching.

That would be obviously impossible to do inside universe which follows theory of relativity, but considering we don't know if EGS is such universe ... ... it would also explain why Adrian Raven noticed. And, well ... I'm not sure if it would be harder than the retroactive changes.
