I think anybody has the potential to be a spectral.

Dolash posted:How does possession work with non-spectrals again? Frog-guy considered it for Max's dad, but I don't remember if they can still spectrally recharge from that. I think it was mentioned that if a spirit possessed a non-spectral, then they would slowly get turned into a spectral. But I can't remember where that was stated, so I might be full of it.

Yeah, this fact combined with Forge being close but not exactly black (to avoid it being too in your face), and having Spender's dual spirit nature focused on here... it just seems obvious that Forge possessing Max is the way it's probably gonna go. Forge's metal powers also compliment Max's pre-existent powers nicely, and it has the added bonus that his powers are STILL useless against ghosts.

Max getting possessed by Forge is the worst thing that can happen because the first thing he'll pick up is his predilection towards anime monologuing. Ed will remain the only holdout.

I dunno I think one metal dragon-themed monster is enough for Max.

If I had my druthers, I'd hope that Isabel gets possessed by Forge. I think their personalities would be more fun to play off of.

Basically any Paranatural character but Spender or Isaac would roll their eyes and shrug off one of Forge's monologues.

Yeah, I feel like Francisco would shut Forge down with a devastating no-nonsense one-liner (then shrug off Forge's sputtering rebuttal). I need to stop now before I develop a headcanon.

It's okay, none of the other characters in the area have compatible spectral signatures

Oh man. Update. Oh man. SSJ Spender. And I am dying to see where Forge winds up.

Forge will follow Spender to the screaming and will possess Max. This will happen because then Spender will have a "not again!" moment and it will be great.

For whatever reason, I'm totally hearing Lucifer as Tim Curry now. I am totally OK with this.

Did Forge escape with a "Look behind you!", or did Spender turn in response to Lucifer?

I'm pretty sure that "AAAAAA" is Max, about to get run over by a train.

Dolash posted:Did Forge escape with a "Look behind you!", or did Spender turn in response to Lucifer? He heard a scream it seems. Probably Max, because, well, yeah. Man, Forge and Spender just can't stop one-upping each other, with Forge countering Spender's post-fight cheap shot with his own backing down in the face of death. (I don't actually blame him, I just felt like making that joke.) Also, wonder what's up with his armor. Apparently it's not a part of him, since it's lingering after his destruction, but since it was invisible at the start of the chapter it's not normal metal either. Anyway, looks like Spender's going to go into slow-time mode to save Max. More likely to work than Isabelle outrunning the train, at least.

Well, presumably if he can fuse with a spirit of light he'd be able to move at the speed of light. Which means he'll slam into Max in a tenth of a second and splatter our protagonist at drat near the atomic level.

"Spirit fusion will make my job impossible" Looks like Spender's dark side is going to slip loose.

Look at Lucifer doing his best to contain the evil dark... viney stuff there. I only just realised that's why he's always facing away. He's facing the monster he's containing. And he's using his light to project that cage shadow on the wall to contain the shadow monster. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 08:14 on Sep 20, 2014 |

Yessss now Forge is free to possess Johnny. It's so obvious but so awesome.

Weapon-forging, fire-breathing Johnny? A lot of nerds are just plain doomed. Edit: I have a vague memory of talk from Zack about what he was planning as far as potential abilities for Johnny, not revealing specifics though. Anyone recall what I'm remembering/hallucinating?

During the sphinx fight Zack said something about Johnny getting "the most annoying abilities" which most people took to mean the sphinx's. He may just have been joking, though if Johnny ends up getting abilities, I can't see him get anything but obnoxious ones. I think Forge is going to go possess Max, personally, though that may interfere with the spirit that may or may not already be in there.

I thought the rule was "one spirit per vessel"?

That's what I meant with the interfering part: if there is already something possessing Max (and I think there is) then Forge may fail to. I'm not sure if it's really impossible for two spirits to possess one person, or if the spirits can agree not to mess with eachother and most don't.

Forge and Scrapdragon's powers just seem to work too well together for Max to not have both of them. But Johnny's nose slowly turning into an anvil would be pretty cool too, I guess.
