Comic 923 – Fleshy parts
Baker Notes
Hello my cookies!
Yup, like any craft, it has its limitations. Since Luna never really got any direction with what she can do, she is stuck to the basics or simply experience being… well… her. Luna’s clothes are PART of her morphing, she doesn’t CREATE clothes, they ARE her.
So, answer me this, How much does this disturb you?
It’s not disturbing I kind of suspected though kind of like plastic Man
I vote that they should get her actual clothes so she doesn’t have to do…that…. O_O
Seconded
Thirded!
Fourthed!
Fifthed!
Sixthed!!
I only see 3 up votes tho…
Oh, right, the down votes…
I never really understood why Luna is doing this whole cover up in the first place. The old guy they needed was murdered by a dreamy. Then Luna pretended to be him rather than just sneaking out. Now she seems committed to this deception for no reason I can see.
I would imagine, that it probably has to do with the fact that she fears she would be perceived as a Monster or a coward. She has no proof that a Dream Soldier and her Phatranious killed Ciallmhar, aside from the stab wound, and it was just shown that she can form Objects from her flesh. So what’s to prevent Missy or Tammy, for that matter, from accusing her of doing the deed herself? Something that she wants to avoid at any cost, since she fears herself being thought of as a Monster. The only way they would know it wasn’t her, is that Ciallmhar would have fought back and that she lacked any sort of means to defeat Ciallmhar. Which only leaves one way she could have known. The real way, Luna saw it happen and did nothing. She only acted after CIallmhar had been killed. She fears being branded as a coward. And while you could say that she was brave to face the Dream Soldier, it was really a desperate bluff in order to drive them away. I would imagine that being called a coward, would be almost as bad as being labeled as a Monster. And while it makes sense to us that she had no way of stopping the Dreamie, in her mind, the fear that her friends wouldn’t forgive her and or might abandon her, is a way worse outcome then deceiving them.
I suspected she is doing that and I didn’t think much about it, but thinking about it is a little disturbing. And the more you think, more disturbing it gets.
It’s only disturbing from a specific perspective, else it’s like scales: top layer comes off anyway, no reason not to paint it the colors of mana. Still supports the idea that she needs a proper wardrobe.
Now, new question! Who here has gotten on to their dog/cat/ferret/etc. for failing to get dressed? Who fails to see the relevance to the previous question?
Poor Luna, she looks really stressed out in the last panel. I mean, it’s not really that bothering. And when you think about it, it makes sense when you consider that Luna changes forms quickly and is usually wearing clothes when she changes to another form. I didn’t think of it as some sort of Sailor Moon type of Transformation, so the clothes had to come from SOMEWHERE. The only way they could be possible is: Illusionary, Conjuration, Creation or Transformation magic.
Can’t be unseen! CAN’T BE UNSEEN!
I would say it makes sense, after all we’ve never seen Luna purchase clothes, however she does seem to have a good sense in fashion with her and Hos working together on the new outfits.
I seen worse.
They gonna find out Cianballer’s death very soon
So on a technical note, she’s always been naked?
