lol, Mal... you are a bad influence on all you encounter and completely incorrigible, I feel I ought to disapprove....
Tangent, I don't think the P+A fanbase are angry with you, judging by comments on your blog, they just disagree.... and uh yep, the Otenba Files fanbase do seem a little wee tiny bit angry maybe... lol. Ah well, it's the risk you run when you write a bad review, people gonna disagree.

Yeah. I stepped on some toes over at Otenba. In a bit of whimsy I alerted my critic (and sarcasm major) friend Steve Anderson on their opinions that criticism should be sarcasm-free and quietly polite in every way. Matter, meet anti-matter. Anti-matter? Have fun. =^-^=
The amusing thing is, even at my most critical I'm not making personal attacks or claiming something sucks. And I was mistaken on the gender of that teacher (gender-differentiation can be difficult sometimes in the drawn media unless you use exaggerated art) and admitted that mistake. *shrugs* I've worked hard to reduce the asskissing in my reviews without going over the top.

I don't think Kaeti would be hiding anywhere. She's got a Faery-killing blade and is currently mad as a hatter (and I still find it absolutely bizarre that the Fae consider themselves "good" but it seems like the Faery side of human/fae crossbreeds are the ones that usually go nutters - human Keti seems clueless and nice, while Kaeti is... not). The only reason she'd be holed up is if she captured An and is wooing her.
Poor An. *chuckles evilly* No! Really!

Nice to see Iordan's wing is healing up. Then again, at least a couple of those pirates can actually work magic, so one of them probably can do some minor healing spells for wings. ^^;;
So, is Dan going to sport a scar now? (How Final Fantasy!) Or is it still fading and healing?

Still healing. Much as chicks dig scars, we decided that it'd be breaking out own rules to have him permanently scarred by a non-silver blade.

Even if it is a badass magical blade. =^-^=
No, it makes sense. And it also makes sense it wouldn't have healed fully yet due to the laws of narrative suspense - by having Daniel obviously having been hurt, it allows questioning on what happened and also would create tension between Jin and Kitty as Kitty harmed her brother.
Actually, one thing I'm actually going to include in the AD&D game I'm starting to run is the PCs having silvered weapons - two of the PCs are half-elves and the third is a Satyr, and I'm actually having iron and steel be uncomfortable to hold for them (though not nearly as lethal as it would be to full fae - though the Satyr will have issues with cold iron).
Still not sure what race the last PC is going to be - I've not heard back from her yet. (The NPCs will be human, just for the amusement factor of roleplaying a black human who has to keep explaining to suspicious peasants "I'm not a dark elf. See? No pointy ears. I can hold iron. Sheesh, haven't you people ever seen a dark-skinned human before?"
(Of course, the region in the game is still recovering from a nasty war between an alliance of elves and fae against an alliance of dwarves and humans - and the elves barely managed to squeak out a stalemate by raiding behind the lines. Having the Wild Hunt destroy farms and the like is not exactly the best way to win the hearts and minds of the peasantry!)

page 11_07... beware the accidental lame-ass pun!
My fave bit of this page is Daniel huffing his hair out of his eyes because An won't let him rant at Kitty. Dan totally wants revenge for that face slash. Kitty however is having the time of her life, a strong enemy to fight, a sword to recapture, people to taunt...

What's not to love? =^-^=
I must admit I'm glad to see Kaeti went and recruited other people to fight with her. The thought of her singlehandedly devastating the entire city in her mad rampage was perhaps a wee bit over the top. But having her work with other criminals and causing that mayhem... I can see it, even if I didn't expect it.
And Daniel in a huff is amusing. =^-^=
Now all we need is the Fifth School of the Dojo: the Piracy Class. Kitty can teach. ^^

But did he earn a red dwarf, a yellow dwarf, or a larger main-sequence star?
And how's he going to add something that big to his sash? oO

It's not the age, boyo. It's the intellect. =^-^=
And the insanity level. ^^;;

i keep my insanity in check seeming it runs in the family that we loose our 'sane-ness' and intellect is all about who the person is.

I love that in that last panel Em has managed to perfectly capture my shit eating grin. That would be my "I'm a royal pain in the ass and you can't stop me" smile.

i for one love this panel... the way keti looks with the head down, blue wings and sword... amazing. the essence of human keti is missing though... maybe it disappeared into the corner of her mind or the universe... anyway i cant wait for the next few pages1
