Ozone said one more weird post wouldn't hurt... or was that one hundred thousand? I forget. Anyway...

Let's take that often used anime setting that's often used (overused?) for "fan service" and have our comic characters come in for a nice bath. What do you suppose they would do? As for Magiversity characters...

Firilis Blade and Wyndgarde would probably be getting drunk off of rice wine while Aiya looks on with horror... but they probably would have snuck in their weapons to deal with the "Peeping Toms" peering over or through the wall. Atashi would be chilling on his side of the bath while keeping his illusions active on his side of the wall... burly armed guards and spikes.Of course, that's not going to stop the more determined guys... Why would he do this? Well, his upbringing and the fact that he's actually a pri... er.. better not say too much now...

Minna would be in the cafeteria area instead. She'd be too shy to join the girls in the spring...

Ching chong ching chong...

Billy vs. Tree -- The epic struggle of boy versus tree.
Sonic Colores -- It looks like it's going to be a good game because I love how the way it makes me grow.

Noooo... I suggested you post it as a community comic project in the networking forum.

Here it's just odd...

Is humorman's post racist? Because if it is... Well that hammer can finally start to fall. ;)

I don't know Ozone. It looks pretty racist to me.
Those were my two cents.
If you have any other questions, please deposit a quarter.

Humorman has unlocked forum achievement "Obscene Onomatopoeia".
 
 
"You tell yourself to just
enjoy the process," he added. "That whether you succeed or fail, win or
lose, it will be fine. You pretend to be Zen. You adopt detachment, and
ironic humor, while secretly praying for a miracle."

Damn, I was actually interested in the conversation...

Well, either way, my cast would probably spend their time playing rock-paper-scissors over silly dares and arguing over whose character could kicks the ass of every other one.

Ummm, sit in hot water?

I'm almost afraid to think of the possibilities here... Cornelius and Valdes would definitely have a lot more fun than the others; Claire would probably be too embarrassed to even get in the water, at least without a towel; and Alexander... Well, he probably wouldn't even be there in the first place, to be quite honest.

I'm not too sure how the scene would play out because some part of my brain starts screaming at the thought of my characters (undead and decidedly not of the sparkly, pretty variety of undead) naked or nearly naked. Right now that screaming brain bit is expressive itself in actual shudders and the odd "gah!"

I'm gonna go and watch something much less squicky to try to erase that mental image...something like...er...the chest burster scene from "Alien."

At a hot springs? I haven't planned to take them to Japan at all, the monsters that live over there are clannish and spooky. Anyhow if they could avoid all the Kindred of the east, and ghost shape shifters wandering around I think any part involving Laura would be NSFW and probably graphic. She has a thing for steam and lack of towels also being outside would probably do it for her.

Rascal would be wearing a turn of the century swimsuit and trying to read an issue of "Good Housekeeping’s dressmakers bonanza" from 1832 while trying to ignore all the noise Laura is making five feet away.

Nikki would probably be 'fixing' something that didn't need fixing. I.E "with so much steam I could finally make that steam powered bicycle!" Also she'd keep telling people who asked her a question in Japanese (she's half Japanese) to "Bugger off, I'm a Brit".

Teresa would be the only normal person on the girls side of the hot springs, more than likely hanging with the little old ladies who frequent them and helping with backrubs.

Aleksandra would have the pigeon on her head and would be talking to the spirits of the springs, occasionally moving something in the area the displeased them or telling some teenage girl to "Get out, and please to be stopping your urination in the springs."

Liam over on the men's side without any of the band members sighing and being lonely till he started a fight with some idiots who tried to peep over into the girls side of the hot springs.

Then they'd all get thrown out, except Rascal and Teresa who denied coming with them.

The problem with this sort of question is that it is that the answers only appeal to a very limited selection of people.
It relies on the people reading other peoples answers to be familiar enough with their comics to know the characters by name and recognise the significance of their actions.

I think this sort of question is fun for people to answer, but the answers are unlikely to interest anyone else, if that makes sense.

Entirely, it'd be more fun if we drew something and slapped a single panel of it somewhere (I don't think this forum works for it). I just like typing, especially when I'm in Lab trying to get hours.

They should all die. By drowning.

Read this comic. It is the greatest journal comic ever written and drawn. Trust me.

I love this. Makes me interested to read your comic more.
Good answer :)

No,no, no, he probably just meant his characters would make racist remarks.

Ahab would probably blow on a bubble pipe and eventually pass out asleep against the rocks. It's been a long week.

Marcus would grumpily sit in the shallow end while an inflatable beer caddy floats by with a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. The Yanks game might be going on a nearby radio.

Bagman would be sitting alone reading the Wall Street Journal, as his chest is disgustingly covered with tumorous parasites which look like faces. No one wants to see that.

It feels weird talking about my characters. They live on a different planet too, but for the sake of roleplaying, I'll go with it.

Laurie would be making awkward conversation whilst being naked. Making puns ABOUT being naked and then feeling embarrassed afterward. Scarlett on the other hand would be comparing her assets to everyone else... Artie would die of over exposer to male nudity.... Seva would thoroughly enjoy himself, though. As in touching everyone.

To be honest with you, all my characters would either be really freaked out or be taking advantage of anime effect to do things normally unacceptable in America. Like sexual harassment.

Well, since it’s my main comic at the moment…I’ll go with the characters from Trolling Around. Leo would inadvertently walk into the women’s bath, assuming people thought he was a chick. So overblown with pride after discovering that they were okay with his presence, he would then come to the conclusion that his ridiculously good looks soothed and aroused them to the point of undressing and jumping into the water. Upon entry, people would notice…well, that he wasn’t female. A guard would confront him, and he would go on a killing rampage against guards and the unattractive females present in the baths.

Ezra would recline in the water in a very unladylike manner, clipping her toenails. Lulu would dig through people’s clothing for change and wallets. Goble would be completely confused about the whole situation and wonder around the baths. OH! And Emily would be feasting on the dead carcasses.

Pinky would wash herself, relax in the warm water, fart, laugh about it embarrassed... Relax some more, dry herself and go. ...forgetting to get dressed. She'd then go back to the baths to try and find her clothes.

Ace would wash himself, relax in the warm water and the certainty of his own awesomeness, convinced that everyone else is secretly admiring him,. He would daydream, constructing an elaborate fantasy in his head about the female characters coming over to join him... get tried of that, dry himself, and get ready to go home.

Cc would relax in the warm water, admiring all the other ladies through slitted eyes, and fantasise about whoever took her fancy. Disgusted by Pinky's water farting spoiling her mood, she'd get out of the water and storm off dripping. In the change rooms she'd then steel Pinky's clothes, along with the various other women she'd taken a fancy too, then sneak into the men's change-rooms and steel most of their clothes too, cackling in a nasty fashion with an evil grin on her face.

---------------

Not being able to find her clothes, Pinky would steel someone else's stuff, which would be 4 sizes too small,. She'd squeeze into it anyway and bulge out in all sorts of sexy places...

Ace would also steel some other guy's clothes, but he'd look even cooler than he did when he came in.

I'm guessing Air Raid Robertson would be eager for a good soak. Ridley, however, would state that having a Japanese Hot Spring appear out of nowhere is likely a trap. Robertson would characteristically ignore him.

And then they would be attacked by ninjas or something.

Because I have no car, and thusly no life right now I give you the Japanese Onsen, I made last night in "Google Sketchup!" Great program (also the free does not hurt) again for people like me who are Maya challenged. If anyone wants to draw said onsen scene and perhaps post it over in the drawing type part of the forums I'd be more than happy to provide a high resolution version of this I'm thinking of working on a little doodle of it myself but I need to finish inking the new four weeks’ worth of comics before I do that.



In addition, it is cold right now in the Starbucks I am killing time in. However, I live in California so 60 is cold.
