When one of the choice is giant cake, you choose giant cake, how is this hard?

Maybe you don't want to have a giant cake.

Maybe you want to be a giant.

Diane has been previously established as liking the idea of feeling giant by proxy by shrinking everyone else.

Right but consider this:

g • i • a • n • t • c • a • k • e

[Rater202]

Yeah, but consider this: A slice of cake that is eight-time normal size would take up eight times as much space in your stomach.

After eating enough pizza to satisfy a teenager?

You're not gonna be able to enjoy that giant cake very well.

That's okay, ypu can just turn back to normal size afterwards. I think.

See, you're assuming its possible to satisfy a teenager's appetite.Or that dessert doesn't magically create space in your stomach the moment you see it, only to promptly have that space disappear once you've fully devoured it, causing it to be shunted into the original stomach space alongside the previous meal making you wonder why you ever thought having dessert that soon was a good idea in the first place.

Given how user-friendly transformation magic is in EGS, I fully expect that any food you eat while shrunken shrinks as well.

That would be a life saver if you got stuck as a giant and could still get by on normal person portions.

[PoeticallyPsyco]

This may have already been covered in one of the FAQ sections, actually. I do remember that if you change size any food/air inside of you changes with, and you don't have any problems digesting stuff that's the wrong size.

These blushes aren't really helping avoid the "everyone's into everyone" interpretation.

We know that Ashley's attracted to both males and females and is "in" to transformation in a way that isn't 100% innocent.

She may, in fact, be into everyone.

[Gnoman]

That's kind of what I'm meaning. She's pretty clearly into this, and everybody seems fine.

...So, does anyone else want a Super-Mario parody comic know?

Nope. Mario parodies are overdone. Every joke that can be told has been told a million times, and Dan is definitely not the kind to go for the edgy jokes that may still have a few drops of humor left to milk out. It would be a thoroughly boring affair.

Kind of agreed. It might be cute for a few strips, but would get boring rather fast. I already think the Fable parody vastly outstayed its welcome, and I like Fable.

[Rater202]

Honestly, considering the number of power-ups that amount to costume changes and transformations, I imagine that if Dan did a Mario parody it would be more like the Tombraider parody than the Fable parady.

[Maat Mons]

Diane makes an adorable plumber. It kind of makes me want to see a Mario-verse AU where Mario and Luigi are royalty, and Peach, Daisy, and Rosalina are plumbers.

But more importantly, do you think Diane would look better with Mario's color scheme, or Luigi's?



…

Wait a minute. How would a girl use the tanuki power up?

[Rater202]

...Honestly, that's part of why I want Dan to do a Mario Bros parody.

The designs in this page look good and I'd like to see what Dan does with others.

...I have vague mental images of Tedd as Professor Elvin Gadd.

[Taevyr]

We'd have to colour her hair and such too to make a proper comparison; I prefer Mario-Diane in your mockup, but I think the green of luigi would go better with blonde hair.

And after Fable, fun as it was, I'd prefer to stay away from generic videogame parodies for a while. The courtroom/Ace Attorney thing Dan's working on now sounds like a breath of fresh air after that one.

[Rater202]

I'd actually forgotten that he was planning an ace attorney parody.

[Maat Mons]

This is going to push my paint-by-numbers skills to the limit but...


Hmm, no wait, let's tweak those colors.


That's not any better...

Spoiler: Down the Rabbit Hole

Show

You know what? Forget it. There are too darn many colors.

Anyway, let's just agree that any hypothetical Mario Brothers parody should cast Sarah as Mario Mario and Diane as Luigi Mario. They're basically twins. Except Diane is a little taller, and Sarah has a little more junk in the trunk.

[Rater202]

Why my mood is a bit off today, a dramatization:

"I have a criticism about how you handled something."

Fair enough. I will consider it.

"It's not surprising you'd make a mistake, being a cisgender heterosexual."

...I beg every pardon you have?

Apparrently being upset by having his alleged mistakes blamed on his gender and sexuality, and having his gender and sexuality mislabeled at that, was a contributing factor to Yesterday's comic being delayed till technically today.

That last line of that quote is a good one, I have to remember that for when if ever, one of my characters goes into tranquil fury mode.

[Gnoman]

This comic has near-toxic levels of adorableness.

[Celestia]

I really like how the characters are struggling with this concept of "wrong answers only." It makes them feel more human.

I think Dan's the one struggling with "wrong answers only".

Wrong answers are ... wrong.
