We have decided to decline your offer of a butt kicking.
Something definitely happened in that black panel with the white line. She cut him? She took some of his black flame to become human? She achieved some degree of royalty?

Can't wait to see. What an amazing development.

The way I saw it is that she passed through him in her ethereal form and sort of stole some mortality to incarnate into flesh and blood.

Ah gently caress, I'm really happy for her. Absolutely love this poo poo.

I read it as ‘she passed right past him without touching him’ - and I don’t think Solomon can imagine passing over an enemy like that, because his hands are swords and his life is a prison.

Okay so White Chain won and her wish was instantly granted. Unfortunately, indecent exposure is a capital offense on Rayuba. Shame, but rules are rules.

I really appreciate how we had like two dozen different suggestions on how this was going to go in the next couple panels, but no one even landed close to White Chain punching straight out of her shell as like... an organically embodied angel? Is that what this is? Who the gently caress knows, it's awesome
I mean, based on how Angels and the setting have been described up until this point, White Chain pinocchioing herself into a real girl, whether via Wish or punching, makes the least possible sense.

Dave killing or trying and failing to kill his surprise angel daughter would be supremely disappointing, but that's probably what's going to happen, because it's the tidiest way to show that his philosophy was bullshit and Dave was only ever about Dave

I disagree that what happened makes the least possible sense. Specifically, the Art is lying in the face of God. White Chain can’t lie as an angel... but what happens when she has a truth that the universe has not recognized? She appears to have come face to face with the limit of her being and God blinked first, and that’s Royalty.

yeah, i legit think this is going to make him happy, it's an insanely raw display of power and royalty and that's the one thing that he still can feel joy from. and what will make him unhappy is her telling him to go gently caress himself

regardless, fridging your trans character the second she gets self-actualization would be the worst move and i think tom's better than that

You know, we've talked before in this thread about the orders of angels representing the successive powers that ruled Throne, and the possibility that a new order under Allison would in turn demand a new order of angels.

It's also come up that each of the orders maintain their armour, and bodies, in different ways.

I think White Chain just founded a new order.

A satisfying narrative twist is one that you don't see coming, but nevertheless makes sense in hindsight.

The whole arc of the angels and devils has been built around the idea that they are different from mortals and servants, and have to find their way in a universe that has been ordered by humans since Zoss split the firmament and humans gave masks to devils. Abbadon's comments and off-panel text as recently as the Allicio bit indicate that the cold white flame and hot black flame are not long term (or in many cases, short term) compatible with squishy mortal bodies and souls. Devils and angels both pay a price for their immortality, either in the need to consume, or in being static. The existence of Petals, for example, doesn't make any sense if being an angel is just something you can opt out of while still retaining a coherent identity.

It's not narratively satisfying to say, "actually this has been possible all along, just nobody in the whole history of the cosmos has ever tried it, every single one of them just assumed it was impossible" or "no one in general and White Chain specifically just didn't want it badly enough until right now."
