Welcome, everyone, to the new 910CMX Community Forums. I'm still working on getting them running, so things may change. If you're a 910 Comic creator and need your forum recreated, let me know and I'll get on it right away. I'll do my best to make this new place as fun as the last one!

6 hours ago, Scotty said:The interesting thing about this though, is earthquakes in California tend to stay isolated to California due to the geology there, whereas quakes that happen in the eastern US can affect larger areas because the rock structure allows vibrations to travel farther. For example, there was a 6.0 quake in California back in 2004 that was mainly felt by Californians, maybe some on the edge of Oregon and Nevada as well. In 2011 though there was a 5.8 quake in Virginia that was felt as far north as Ottawa, Canada, and as far south as Florida, I'm in southwestern ontario and remember hearing things rattle on shelves and thinking at first that a large truck drove by the apartment. A relatively strong quake in California would cause a decent amount of destruction in a small area though considering all that's in California it would still be very costly, however a strong quake on the east could potentially do a lot more widespread damage.
All right, but I was speaking of intensity within the zone of effect, rather than extent of the zone of effect. Rattling the windows and shelves is barely worth noticing. It's when things start falling OFF the shelves that there is danger (in which case you want to duck and cover so that none of it hits you).

Dan has made it pretty clear that Wolf and Cranium are supposed to be a parody of Mulder and Scully. Note Wolf/Fox (Mulder) and Cranium/Skull (Scully).

It's a goooooood life.
Anyway, yes, in the days before high school became a requirement for most non-menial jobs, people were mostly regarded as adults by the age of sixteen (though a few things such as voting age in Europe and America required twenty-one years).
-
Apologies for double post, but the usual workaround for the invisible text is not working on my iPhone.
Anyway, by "filters", I meant the little filter screens inside the aerators, not any other filters that you may have upstream from them.
-
Your filters may be partially clogged, especially if you have mineral-heavy water and the filters are at least a couple of years old. If so, then it's best to replace them--and if you want high flow, then choose the ones that reduce the flow rate by 35% or less.

Having lived in earthquake country all of my life (California, then Japan, then California again), My instinct is that unless there's a danger of something falling down (e.g. those fragile vases on your shelf), then it's hardly even worth a second thought.
-
Trivia: in Japan, as in many societies, the liver is regarded as the metaphorical seat for courage (like how we call a coward "lily-livered).
-
It may also be that Immortals are invisible to one another unless they actively scan for each other, and normal courtesy is to avoid scanning without having a good reason.
-
Also, Pandora said/thought that she could only give Ashley the most minor of healing spells (healing small scratches and such) to start with.

8 hours ago, Zorua said:Panel 1: Probably a good idea to tell those people, then. Also Nanase and Edward are about the same height (depending on what shoes they're wearing).
Yes. Considering that Nanase admits to being five feet four inches, if she isn't wearing shoes higher than his, then Edward is not more than five feet seven. Now we know where Tedd gets his shortness genes from.

4 hours ago, Scotty said:Edward likely couldn't detect her magic and that's what gave away the fact she's Immortal, Adrian had also mentioned that it would be a bad idea for an immortal to pose as someone known to be a powerful wizard in front of someone who could detect magic potency. Supposedly everyone has some magic energy and could potentially awaken and use magic, so a distinct lack of detectable magic energy would suggest something else.
It may be that an Immortal's magical aura is SO undetectable that they look like a magical "void" (i.e. a space where there is too LOW a magic level to possibly be a living humanoid). Scanning for magic and coming across an Immortal would thus be kind of like viewing the scene in thermal-band infrared and seeing that she has NO body heat.
-
So basically, the first enchantment is dispelled before the second one activates. That would be a good safety feature for preventing them from overlapping with unexpected results.
-
If your sanity can handle it, look up the entry "Most Common Superpower" on TV Tropes.

Not everything is about Ponies.So says the self-styled King of Denial.
-
There's a reason that "Boobs of Steel" is "the most common superpower".
-
Diane might also have felt guilty about tearing into Justin after the fact, and her defending Elliot online (where she is safely anonymous) is her way of dealing with that guilt.

I would have thought she'd turn into a Lina...

In real-life genetics, brown/black hair is dominant over blonde. Let "B" represent a gene for brown/black hair, and "b" for blonde. If both parents are "Bb", then one-fourth of possible genetic combinations will be "bb". Thus, two parents who have dark hair but both carry genes for lighter hair could produce blonde children.

Hmm, EGS cast cosplaying as Neon Genesis Evangelion characters . . . who would wear what costume? I can imagine Nanase as Asuka (redhead, prides herself on being a top fighter/protector and top student) . . . who else?
-
Name-based affinity being the "worst" form may be like puns being considered the "lowest" form of humor by some people.
Anyway, Pandora speaks as if she is clearly familiar with Catalina, so she probably has been watching some of her interactions with Tedd's group of friends (she mentioned Susan and Sarah specifically).
-
To paraphrase Sarah, "I have discounted that theory as being 'boring'."
(Does anybody recall the page of the original quote?)
-
I think that Edward knows enough about Immortals that he is aware that they can mask their magical auras if they so wish. Pandora would register as a magically inactive entity until she started tossing spells around.
-
Technically, Susan and Diane were born in different years despite being only twenty minutes apart, since it was 31 December/01 January.

She is all made up for her date with Catalina.
More Speculation.
