    ... also, she MIGHT be using magic for keeping her appearance ...
    Susan: So you are Noriko? You look good for your age.
    Noriko: And you look dark for blonde.
    Based on her being sort-of celebrity I would assume he saw her photo. Also, he might not REMEMBER she's Edward's ex-wife but he has enough clearance to know and was probably told - if he didn't know, the deadly stare would make less sense ; it's more likely Cranium thinks he should know.

    Excellent points. Was our Tedd the actual target? The Goo never attacked Tedd, or even tried to. That would tend to support the "strengthen the other Tedd's" theory.

    This same comic proves that EGS exists in a fantasy world where a huge black man can hide in a bush at night in a rich white suburb of Chicago without being arrested.

    If you believe I was suggesting something like that, I don't know how you got that impression. I certainly didn't mean to suggest that.
    All I've been trying to say is that reconciliation between Tedd and Noriko should only occur if both parties want it (and not just because it turns out Tedd has magic), and if written realistically (which I hope it will be) will take a lot of work and pain along the way. The early parts of it are particularly likely to be painful, and as such I expect the story their first meeting occurs within to be on the downbeat and/or bittersweet side.

    Ya know what?
    Maybe we could convince some artist to create a web-comic that features a cute girl who is secretly part squirrel.
    Who knows?  This cute girl might be able to transform into an even cuter squirrel.
    I think I might read that story for a while.

    I don't like to think about it, but I suspect what Ellen misses most is having something to miss.
    Every "Memory" she has from before the first encounter with the Dewitchery Diamond is borrowed (Elliot's), false (Government cover story), or superimposed (Second Life).  And those "memories" contradict one another.
    It seems to me that Ellen throws herself into the shenanigans of the present, at least in part, to avoid thinking of her (lack of a) past.

    Right, so far, not in canon. But Susan could have all sorts of spells we haven't seen yet. She didn't know she could summon multiple fairies until the very last comic in Playing With Dolls. And like you, the doll doesn't really have a Nanase look.
    I actually gave some thought to this. The basement is a very secure area, maybe the most secure in Moperville. And the fairy didn't attempt to speak. Maybe Nanase did have something to say, but hearing the conversation, decided to wait and listen first.
    But then, changes clothes and starts flying around the basement. Going to get something? Or is Nanase just doing fairy tricks because she's bored?
    I wasn't, but Nanase is acting very much like a jealous ex now, isn't she? Or maybe like a jealous mother. Could Nanase already be turning into her mother? Remember how her mom reacted when she found out Tedd had a girlfriend?
    Another way to look at it is that the whole time Elliot was dating Nanase, and then dating Sarah, he never seemed to take the initiative. Then Elliot meets Ashley and immediately starts dating her. He even organized this party for her. What's this woman got that I haven't?!!!

    I'm not sure if Ellen actually sees trouble, or if she's projecting or something else. Case in point, Ellen has expressed attraction towards Tedd in the past, she's admitted to Tedd that she thinks he's sexy, she's even teased Elliot about it and as I've linked before, Elliot's admitted to it as well. She might be thinking "while I haven't actually acted on my attraction, I'm not immune, Ashley might have difficulty as well."

    This is actually an argument for the party -- Ashley's image in Grace's thoughts has become less like the real Ashley in the same way that any description becomes less accurate when it's second or third hand. Once Grace has personally seen Ashley her mental image of Ashley will be a lot less distorted, which in Ashley's case means nicer.

    First, Ijuin, I don't recall seeing that reference in these forums before.
    Shame on me if I have forgotten where that pun has been previously posted.
    Shame on ALL of us if this really is the first time someone has mentioned Charlotte's Web.
    We must hold ourselves to higher standards and never let a Pun opportunity escape our notice for so long.
    Second, Liz was growing whiskers in the last panel.  You can't have pages of transformation discussions in EGS without SOMEONE transforming.

    Not talking about it is not healthy, but you can do plenty of not talking without isolating yourself.
    THOSE however are not likely to specifically target people with weapon summoning talent. Granted, not being specifically targeted is not much consolation when you end up dead.
    No way.
    I mean no way she would be able to save Pandora if she had trained with Nanase. Unless, in addition to learning how to fight, she would get some ranged weapons more effective than stun hammers and fairies.
    Regarding the possibility of Susan being bothered by it ... ok that is definitely possible.
    The "grandmother" and "dead" parts are probably more important to her now, yes. I was just summarizing.
    Note how Grace though about possibly being seen as monster by Rhoda: did Diane though about her being quarter immortal from this angle yet? We don't know. One possibility is that she though about it and rejected it as pointless worry. Another is that it's something she doesn't want to think about either.
    Maybe.
    If it was fixture, it would mean she's risking her mother will notice it's missing. In any case, she enchanted the trunk, obtained the sword and put it into the trunk. That's some effort motivated either by logically evaluating she might be target, or by fear.
    Not following it with any training is not logical. Understandable, but not logical.
    Greg MAY have some experience with weapon fighting we just didn't saw (black belt in three disciplines). Even if not, he can teach them something about fighting in general.
    Sure, Adrian Raven would be more qualified, but Greg will still be better than nothing. And as I said, not relative.
    Also this, yes. Even if he personally don't know kendo, he is likely to at least know someone who does.
    Yes. Also good point with her having "couple" of swords, which may mean even more than two ... which, of course, doesn't change the fact she could've steal some fixture.
    To be fair, goo is hard to fight with sword even if you DO know how to fight with one. And, she did tried: it's hard to see but in second panel she is striking the goo with the sword.

    ... that's Nurture? I though it's Logic. Everything she says is logical. ... yes, I know, she has round ears.
    Not only youthful metabolism. Based on Nanase, with some training you can learn to burn calories on spells. It would be illogical to skip this opportunity.
    Also, I think this dance was great.
    ... so, Susan will be hanging with Diane and if something happens both can arrive

    Hmm. Maybe Diane isn't quite there yet. You might take comfort that unlike every member of the Main Eight:
    Diane doesn't have a last name yet. Diane has had no scenes with Tedd or Sarah yet. Diane hasn't had any scene with the Demonic Duck yet. On the other hand, Diane has her name in the title of an archive chapter now. Nanase's only made it into one non-canon NP title, and Justin's name hasn't been in any archive title.
