So,... spoiler alert! If you haven' read the comic, read it first!
He says his flesh is blue while looking at his arm. He doesn't specifically mention ears except to say they're back, which would be obvious when he felt their weight and, I imagine, started to hear properly again.extrabigmehdi wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 5:13 am My last post didn't appear. Sorry, if a repost.
How Big Ears could know his ears are blue, without looking at mirror ? That's a bit disappointing.
Looks like it from this page. The "FWASH" is outlined in blue, so maybe that's Ears' new IME.
I had a similar thought.Frownsalot wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 3:43 am Well.. if this isn't the definition of "friends will become enemies", I don't know..
However, notice he is carrying the little soul piece that they rescued (broke off) from Kore, and it seems perfectly OK. I suspect that he doesn't directly affect Kore, however Kore will now have problems trying to attack him since he can only attack "evil", but even Kore will have a hard time declaring an angel to be evil.Starling wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:31 am Ears's ears are back! And he looks badass with the blue flesh, it's like war paint!
But apparently he's part angel now. What are the implications of that? Also, touching angel flesh hurt Complains... Would that also affect Kore? He's not part demon but he is mostly made of souls. Maybe it would affect him somehow.
Probably will view Ears as a fallen angel at best. And Ears being a goblin, aka monster, and even hanging with part-daemon Complains, it'll be all a ruse where a monster has gained a way to usurp the holy powers of an angel for their nefarious needs. He does not need to know how it happened, just that the knowledge of how to do it can't spread and he must defeat this abomination before it spreads its purity-tainting knowledge to other monsters...
I think Kin's case is a bit different, since her injury was so crippling that she wouldn't have been able to play a part in the comic for a long time without some kind of fix, whereas Ears could have had longer, before getting his ears back. Let his loss affect his personality, deal with his pain, then eventually return them after he's had to cope without them for a while.Aegis J Hyena wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 1:45 am That was unexpected. Felt kind of like when Kin got her tail back in the Maze. Seems almost... too easy? There's got to be a drawback for such an instant heal.
I don't think it affected his personality or would even leave a mental scar, because he cut them off to save his friends. That's a good enough of a reason to never dwell on it negatively. If anything, his view of it would be positive. Hence, whether he gets his ears back now or much later or never would have never changed his character in any way.Glemp wrote: ↑Tue Feb 02, 2021 9:02 amI think Kin's case is a bit different, since her injury was so crippling that she wouldn't have been able to play a part in the comic for a long time without some kind of fix, whereas Ears could have had longer, before getting his ears back.

And that would be the clue that you should cut it out all together. If it did not affect his character, what is the point? We already knew he was self sacrificing and unconcerned with personal loss. Ears were cut off in the room before this, right? And now they're back. Them being gone was even more minimized by his head being covered by the blind fold for the little time.Starling wrote: ↑Tue Feb 02, 2021 2:23 pmI don't think it affected his personality or would even leave a mental scar, because he cut them off to save his friends.

There was some final choice made by someone, somewhere? Yeah. Not really the topic here, but I think at the moment it's free game as it might spell the "official" end to this forum.
Yeah this sucks. They didn't even post on that thread or make an announcement.
Not having a link to the forums on the main page is definitely putting the life of it on the clock. If there are intentions to have a solid forum platform for the remaining oldies (and newbies) that stick around despite the ever-changing environment, then at least some official post here from Ellie would be nice. (Even if it is only "we are working on something, please stick around".)WearsHats wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 12:29 am The site redesign has been a long time coming, and was always planned to promote the Discord server (which has been there since Discord was in beta, originally as a supplement to the live stream). But the forums aren't being shut down. The plan is to update the existing boards software, see how that goes, and take it from there. Unfortunately, that plan got postponed due to RL issues, so it's still pending. We'll let you know when we know more.
