Dangerously Chloe 24-03-16 Girl shaped now

[Error of Logic]

... If Abby takes another peek through Death's Door after all the recent crap, I do hope she at least gets a mild warning. This really isn't funny anymore - to me, anyway. YMMV.

[TJgalon]

I am also impress with how Alchemy has stayed female with all these lovely female around.

[Error of Logic]

Alchemy might just be bisexual regardless of her current form, and have some powerful fantasies about being in a multi-girl orgy.

Abby. Die. Break a leg. Have your hair shaven off in your sleep. Srsly, fck you!

A bit extreme but yes. Abbey, Kimmy and Pandora are no help at all and need to be punished. At the very least told off for being them.

If they're bringing a vampire, please oh please let it be Layla

Why? Chloe and her didn't exactly part on the best terms. If anything I'd love for this to be an excuse for a Nina cameo.

And seriously after all of the things Teddy has been through and seen he's shocked that vampires exist.

Layla drinks blood, we don't know if Nina started doing it after the Quintessa incident, besides, the bad blood between them is the beauty of it...

Maybe they can bring both, after all, they're sisters...

I have to throw in my two cents about Abby's character, not just in this chapter, but in several recent chapters as well. In the beginning, while Abby had a selfish streak, it was still clear she loved Teddy. Now, it almost seems like she doesn't give a rat's ass about him, and just wants to see him suffer.

This is a trope known as Flanderization. Basically the opposite of character development, Flanderization is when a certain trait of a character (in this case, Abby's selfishness) becomes more and more prominent until it eclipses their entire personality. It's named after Ned Flanders of The Simpsons, who was originally just a nice guy who happened to be religious, but is now a religious zealot.

Flanderization is very rarely a good thing, and often reduces a character to a one-note joke. I am BEGGING the writers to reverse this trend and give Abby some character development. She was once one of my favorite characters, but not anymore.

I have to agree

in the past it seemed she was joking with him, and we could easily see it

but now it seems she is just cruel, and there is no hints she is joking

I really like this developement. I'd like Teddy to eventually keep his shape shifting ability, which I suspect he'll need to eventually save Chloe and her friends from Hell. For now he'll have to learn how to master that particular skill. Perhaps a weekend session with Sergeant Slash-Stab. She could possibly mistake Teddy for Chloe insisting that he/she correct her hair. "I'm sorry sergeant. "I had an accident and I think I forgot." To which the sergeant would put her through a rigorous refresher program starting with the hair. "Give me a bouffant cadet love! "A beehive! "A Mohawk," "A rainbow Afro!" Etc...

Except doesn't seem like he has shapeshifting here, since they all seem to think he's stuck like this.

If he could shapeshift, wouldn'tthey suggest it as a solution?

That's a bit unfair to Pandora. She's at least tried to be helpful. Not lie she could have predicted Kimmy doing something like she did.

If they knew he had it, sure. There is no reason to believe that Alchemy would know, and as for Pandora... how often can you believe anything she says?

[Radbaron]

People... remember when Chloe and Pandora tried to give Abby "the talk"?

Do you think their understanding of human biology has changed ANY since then? (It's the Incubus that bears the little demons , they're going off that assumption)

As for Abby... well, thats twice (3 times?) now she's had her big brother turn into her *ahem* BIG sister. Instant jealousy. Plus hormones. Plus whatever Chloe and Pandora emit...

You mean, if he has it at all. Pandora has actually been very helpful the last few strips, so there's no reason to doubt her word yet.

My point is, if the solution would be that simple, why are they suggesting these drastic measures?

I didn't notice that until you pointed that out. Agreed. Either change her character for the better or send her off to summer camp. And chters about her being there.

[Alexander Collins]

Does anyone else the feeling that Slash-Stab and Pandora are related?

Two things:
1) Last time, Chloe (after licking him to confirm he was still 'really' male), said that her blood had given him her shapeshifting power, and was defaulting to her form, but he had no control over it "yet". Half-dose notwithstanding, there's no reason to think that wouldn't still apply - the effects have supposedly been boosted, not locked. How easy it would be for him to gain such control is unknown.
2) OTOH, Chloe's DC-era shapeshifting has been limited - she can change her surface looks easily enough, and also deage to apparent childhood, but not alter her overall body type while staying the same age without constant effort (going "full incubus" apparently being a different thing). IOW, as long as she's an adult, she's always a big-boobed female...
