Description This small thingy took me about five days to finish. I was either that slow or it was supposed to take ages.
Previous rp threads were my inspiration. Last three panels were the most memoriable things for me.
After Eriu took Hel under her wings she made her do some things to train her and make her improve her telepathic skills. First one was to make Hel use her telekinesis in getting what she wants. So she announced she got her some pocket money, and tossed it into the swimming pool for Hel to fish it out. Couldn't know that Hel loves to swim. Blondie was diving in and mostly simply picking up coins. Later she started to help herself with telekinesis by picking more coins from the bottom at once. Spent whole time in the pool though. It was fun to write.
Nicholas is a son of a bitch. Treats women like garbage, like things he can experiment on, kill and dissect. Mean, sarcastic and young necromancer cares only for himself, craves power, demons are his pets. Kind of a man Eriu likes. So she tried to seduce him once. Tired with her talking, Nicholas cast a silent spell and covered her damn mouth with duct tape. Me and my rp buddy were laughing for weeks. Still it makes me chuckle.


Featuring: Eriu's weasel Stue, Elias (~ChocolateFrizz89 ), a plant of unknown origin, some guy that looks like David Tennant (I realised that after I finished the panel. Precious thing!), Helena Hughes ([link] ), and Nicolas' (her brother's) arm in the last pannel.
Parody of the great and memorable quote from Mean Girls

Eriu belongs to me.

This looks like a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde comic I read when I was in sixth grade. At least the colors are similar, the style is a lot more...cool. (Ran out of adjectives) The Eriu character sounds like a very interesting villain of some sorts. Would make an awesme character for a movie! I liked it. I'd give it twenty five chocolate points (if chocolate points existed...)

I have to say I'm rather intensely wary of the implied misogyny...
What exactly was so amusing that it had you "laughing for weeks" ?

Because in addition to the "bitch" & the character's pursuit of an abusive male for a relationship & silencing (and I'll accept the actions might have been in-character, but your response to them certainly isn't), the portrayal is a highly-sexualised one and seems very.. fetishistic in nature.

I'd ask that you check your actions for sexist bullshit, thoroughly.

Ravietta In reply to ScotsDragon [2013-06-28 06:20:30 +0000 UTC]

Sexist bullshit? Man, are you serious? I loled at the hilarous plot twist!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ScotsDragon In reply to Ravietta [2013-06-28 13:28:06 +0000 UTC]

Yes. I am.
The language used, the tone with which it's used, the fact you think silencing a woman is "hilarious", and the ridiculous notion that a seemingly-empowered & sexual character would deliberately pursue an abusive relationship.

What's even more telling is that, rather than explain in terms of character development or backstory or anything REMOTELY resembling the hallmarks of a good writer, you responded with rhetorical questions & dismissal of VERY valid criticism of your content.

Ravietta In reply to ScotsDragon [2013-06-28 13:43:33 +0000 UTC]

Shame on me, shame.
I see you're a writer, mister. I would explain, but you seem like a person who would rather write an essay about how an artist decided to shame women in her rp than actually listen. I will leave you with your invalid and kinda amusing conclusions then.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ScotsDragon In reply to Ravietta [2013-06-29 12:06:01 +0000 UTC]

You seem like the kind of person to be dismissive towards criticism, no matter how well-founded, and then refuse to justify your claim of correctness with anything more than deliberately-vague "Well I'm totally right but you'd never understand".

More than a writer, I'm a reader.
If you write, I'll read & analyse & respond.
All you'd have to do is explain as an artist and rational human being why certain things hold true for your character.
(Which surely shouldn't be difficult. I know /I/ always have a clear understanding of specific characters & their motivations, whether plot-driven or personality-driven.)
[Which, given, "I can x, so others can too" is fallacious, but you do seem to at least be able to write rather well; I'd presume that does extend to/from the ability to properly characterise.]

Ravietta In reply to ScotsDragon [2013-06-29 12:43:54 +0000 UTC]

As a woman I'm full of respect for my sex, mister. I'm not dismissive towards criticism, I appreciate and respect people who come and tell me what I did wrong. I am dismissive towards invalid conclusions though. That's not criticism what you did. You over analysed one sentence in which I tried to explain in short what happened in damn long roleplay thread, you pointed at me yelling 'misogynist'.
I came to the conclusion you're a random visitor, not a follower, and you probably didn't bother to read about the 'bitch', visit the roleplay page I linked in my journal or check anything at all before accusing me of showing women they are garbage. Let me tell you then that both characters are mean, selfish, cruel, hollow, vain, and rather inteligent people who didn't exactly like each other when they met. Woman once tried to persuade the man to help her get rid of the demon who claimed her soul. Was interrupting him, trying to seduce when he was far from doing more than he was paid for, so when she pulled him to kiss him, he let her understand that he finds her disgusting by covering her face with duct tape.
It was funny because as much as she loves to flirt and achieve things by seducing those she wants to use, he's asexual, and neither of us or the character didn't see it coming.
They became temporary partners later and gutted several women at night in the street hunting for guts for guy's project to ressurect his sister.

ScotsDragon In reply to Ravietta [2013-06-29 15:32:24 +0000 UTC]

I did not "yell".
Nor does your being a woman automatically imply respect for other women or women in general.
If the analysis was invalid, all you had to do was explain.

Your grammar is a bit conflicted, but I can see your meaning (I think).
One would think that an intelligent & cruel misanthrope wouldn't interrupt someone doing them a favour in a manner that could cost them, & that they would have done their research.
One might suspect said character is merely above-average rather than exceptional, based on that evidence.

But fair enough. It's simply that, without context, this sort of material grates due to still-current world issues demonstrated (& normalised) by sexism in fiction.
I would rather speak up & risk error than allow it to pass without question.

ScotsDragon In reply to Leondrore [2013-06-28 13:25:51 +0000 UTC]

... you're asking a reader not to read.
You're asking someone with a passion for analysis not to analyse.
More importantly, you're asking that an inquisitive human being not question.
And even more importantly than that, you're adopting the notion of wilful ignorance regarding discrimination.

So maybe you should read more & think more.

Leondrore In reply to ScotsDragon [2013-06-28 16:17:20 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, okay.
It's clear that this person isn't a misogynist and as that's a very horrible thing to accuse somebody of, you're overthinking just about everything.
But alright, I'm done here.

ScotsDragon In reply to Leondrore [2013-06-29 12:01:46 +0000 UTC]

No, it isn't clear. At all.
In fact, with the writing & the responses, it only indicates they are using tired old tropes in the same sexist fashion with zero discernible plot justification.

Alright, I'm done here.
You're just going to keep pushing the fact regardless of what I say lmao.
It really isn't as big of a case as you're making it out to be.
Practically attacking with the accusation, even if he does hate women what will come of it?

I hate women, what are you going to do now?
