Comic for September 14, 2019: The Unfortunate Request

[JayJayForce]

Well, it's less bad that I feared, but she's definitely doing that on purpose. Hopefully it looks like Raine is already resisting somewhat. Now, will she be able to overcome the compulsion and if not, will Red be a gentleman?

Dang, I get the new update for two webcomics in a row? Must be my lucky week

[Elemental Templar]

Well... I suppose there's no greater motivator than the urge to avoid accidentally (or in this case uncontrollably) stripping in front of your crush.

Although given how Raines' keidran transformations are emotionally influenced I imagine she's just gonna go full-wolf again.

[SpottedKitty]

Looks like I got it right in my comment on last week's page — this is Rose's natural sense of humour. Now what can poor Raine do?

[greywolf]

Ooo well played Rose! If red was like me he would hand around and check things out. Poor Raine, but despite what teenagers think, you won't die from embarrassment.

[Hayate]

Oh dear... That took me a second to figure out what was happening xD

[Shockwave07]

*Snip*

I do not think she will order Raine to kiss Red. Or at least I hope she doesn't. And it is unlikely to make her attack Red. She is likely to actually overpower the spell in that situation. After all protecting her friends is a way more compelling incentive for her. And then there is no reason for her to go to the beach party.

I think someone was on point here... And we might have some of the source of her transformations.

Does her right paw look like it's skin colored in the last panel?

I believe so. I think a transformation was triggered.

[Ddraig]

I would like to be the first to say "Called it!"

My theory is that Rose is going to order Raine to hurt Red, or hurt Red herself while ordering her to stand aside. That way she'd force her to fight back as strong as she can (she can't use Red directly, he's to straightforward and cares too much about Raine to engage in anything hurtful to her in any way).

I doubt it'd be that malevolent. The worst I could see Rose doing is ordering Raine to strip in front of Red (And this is where I expect Raine would manage to overcome it - hush you). It'd fit both a sense of humor and Rose's older keidran standards of nudity

Anyway, she's definitely fighting it. The collar's even sparking

Does her right paw look like it's skin colored in the last panel?

I believe so. I think a transformation was triggered.

The panel immediately previous shows a similar light gradient across Raine from (I assume) the window, so I think it's just a difference in lighting

[Eclipse]

Okay, Rose is just trolling at this point. I wasn't sure if she was going to cross that line, but she did. She really has no standards, does she?

Oh? Oh!

...Just realized that the collar is still in play!

[Cinnibar]

Well, Rose was concerned (said as much) that if Raine couldn't resist the collar at all, then this method wasn't going to have the desired results.

So she's been giving more and more demeaning orders trying to get some, if fact any result except compliance. About the only thing she is getting is complaints about 'dog' commands, but Raine did jump at Red entering that one time.

So now she's using Red trying to shock Raine with something she cares about as it is clear Rose is not enough incentive at this stage. This is for Raine's own good...and if it fails, then it is clear the collar is not going to help.

Cruel? No, she is trying to get some success for Raine, and Raine is not going to die of embarassment. Success will be it's own reward and failure will be instructive. When a toddler starts to walk, you eventually have to let them learn to walk or fall, even birds kick their fledglings out to try their wings the hard way, and learn how to use them. She's family, but she's helping someone who has never learned this skill growing up.

[AmigaDragon]

Supercharged embarrassment for incentive. Don't want Red to see your breasts? Resist the collar (whether you change to full human first or not). Sneaky one, Rose.

[Warrl]

And so casually AFTER announcing the end of the exercise, while seeming to have her own attention on other matters...

... well played indeed, Rose.

[Kelden]

Okay, I haven't posted here or even logged in, in *ages*, but I just had to toss in...

How will Red react when he realizes what method they've been using to try to help her learn to control her transformations? I can't imagine he'll approve of Raine being put in a slave collar like that, whatever the reason!
