Once again, I am in the minority. So, seriously, I am the only one that thinks Kade is really plain and unattractive, as well as even more annoying then Nina? (And that says a lot to me)

[theodoric476]

I just think that Kade has learned about the delights of being a cat girl in a bikini. As they said after World War I about the returning dough boys, “Gonna Keep 'Em Down on the Farm? (After They've Seen Paree)?”

Once again, I have been forgotten!

then Layla will no longer be the alpha of the school.

Is she? Because Cess and Laura don't seem to think so.

[Raamyah]

I don't know - that comic seems to illustrate that they do think she's the Alpha. At least on a higher level than they are. So, when this happens, her "Alphatude" is really cemented.

I wouldn't call girl-Kade unattractive, although his/her/its figure is certainly less impressive than any other girl in the comic aside from Nina. As for annoying, I'm witholding judgement for the moment.

[Aquila89]

No, in that comic, they definitely don't think she's the alpha. Cess earlier says that Melissa's departure created a power vacuum. They didn't want Layla to fill it, because they wanted to fill it themselves.

By the way, I'd like to see what are they up to now. Do they still hang out with Chloe?

[Sheela]

Well it *is* possible that there could be more than one alpha in a group, they'd just be at odd with eachother ... or end up becoming a "powercouple".

Also, methinks Kade is enjoying his/her strut just a teeny bit much.
Who know, maybe he doesn't want to become a boy again ?

[NekoLLX]

You mean Kade may turn into...Sonya?

Sonya?

[Artemisia]

It's a cross series reference, no worries.

[NekoLLX]

Ah cause i have a gender bent chanracter in my own series who goes by Sonya

Well, just as a warning, the Trans Community can be rather unforgiving. I've been on the receiving end of some pretty upset comments. Personally, it's a trigger, so I tend to get upset and have kind of said the wrong things in the past when that's happened, but if you are publishing a story, just be aware with it.

[NekoLLX]

it's a magicical trasformation that takes place roughly a year after the main story to set up events even further out. so it's not a main aspect unlike Kenny's arc in Tokusatsu year 2-6. But i'll keep your warning in mind.

[Astrotrain]

I like to think that this is the beginning of an offbeat but heartwarming friendship between Kade and Blair, at least on Blair's part, that will outlast Kade's girlie bits.

Human interactions are more complicated than those in, say, a wolf pack or a group of baboons, though their interactions have turned out to be a lot more complex than we had once thought. Cessily and Laura (and most of the other students) probably saw Melissa as the alpha, and Cess wants to replace her. Melissa, however, was the queen bee, not strictly the alpha. Layla, as I see it, is outside the high school social hierarchy: she isn't interested in being "the queen bee", but she is attractive and very strong. She is, to coin a term, the 'virtual alpha' - she could be the queen bee if she wanted to, but she isn't interested. Cess and Laura, when they think she may have overheard them badmouthing her, are terrified.

Also note that the only one (as far as we know) to stand up to Layla in public is Brooke. And she is even less likely to want to be queen bee.

One other point: There have been quite a few references to the possible use of the Orb of Tiresias. Has everyone forgotten that it shattered into a zillion or so pieces? Now I'm sure the the mad scientist... er... the highly respected teacher... Ms. Twigett has at least some of those fragments and she may have a way to use them to reverse or alter the effects left over from its use. If she does, it might work... or something.

OK, so now I'm getting this vibe about the Orb of Tiresias being shattered like the shikon jewel... and I'm imagining Kagome, Inuyasha, and company collecting the fragments of the Orb so that it can be restored and used to fix the situation.
