Man, I guess Heather’s family is just full of nymphomaniacs if Crystal was still aroused from that elf and/or was aroused being put into an embarrassing situation like this.
Well, she didn’t look all that aroused in the last strip so it might be part of the magic holding her in position?
I don’t think it was ever stated but, due to her professed near-disgust in the physical act, I always thought she was a virgin and, if she is, she looks a little too pleased in the fact that a very large member possibly tore through her hymen, let alone how tight she’d be from lack of use.
I always figured her disgust was never experiencing any kind of sexual feelings and just observing sex. Sex can be quite messy and disgusting, especially if you don’t get any sexual feelings or reaction to seeing it.
They didn’t. It means that she was either still a bit aroused from seeing that elf naked or she was finding the whole embarrassing situation she is in right now to be arousing. This also shows me that Heather’s family in general tend to become a nymphomaniacs and like being in situations like this.
I’m understanding it differently. The first ‘up’ and patience is fully erect enough to rip pants, the second ‘up’ is getting crystal red faced and smiling…then the act. I’m taking it as an instant uber arousal ‘up’ commands
Urazz
Crystal was levitated as well which is what the second up was.
Being offended by rape is absolutely an acceptable reason to leave the comic, but, if you think this is the first time it’s happened, that’s very naive.
It’s the wonders of living in pornoland. Where the world has very different rules on what is or is not traumatic and people are actually much more willing than they say they are.
It’s one of those things you just sorta have to accept a lot of stuff like that. Like how you need to accept that the correct response to attempted murder/basically any single horrible action is a wrestling match and then happily still working with the guy to enjoy WWF.
Urazz
Pretty much this. Characters in pornos aren’t normal people anyways and tend to be perverts in some fashion. That’s not even counting how outrageous some stories are. It’s why I tend too not get offended when something like this happens as well and try not to apply real world logic and morals to it.
This comic has been a morbid fascination for me for years now, partly from the content but mostly from the weird ways people seem to overlook some horrific things and condemn other less horrific things.
As faerie abuse goes, this strip is decidedly average.
Urazz
Travan, this strip isn’t the only place where you can see things like rape happen. It’s a thing some people are into, both men and women.
Ever since the first bit of outrage that started when Patience under the influence of magic screwed Lucky and readers accused him of raping her because there was no consent she has been used quiet a lot to technically sexually assault others. Lucky when it was quiet obviously passed out drunk thus couldn’t give consent and even if he woke up shortly there after and gave a thumbs up he’d still have it in his system. Drunk/magic consent isn’t consent according to what’s been said. But the dislike of Lucky and a double standard makes it ok with some.
Now she’s being used again and I guess because she’s penetrating it’s bad this time.
This doesn’t bother me to be honest. I just sorta laughed at the double standards of some of the readers or perhaps the laws that defines it. I sorta doubt it was intended to expose this in the readers but I sorta get the feeling Patience has been singled out for these questionable acts.
Crystal’s breasts are bigger? (Not that I am complaining!!!). I just thought they ‘only’ grew when someone was pissed off at her? BUTT… (okay, I am a 12 yr old) But, to balance out ‘dat ass’, she *did* need a little moat up top.
And yes.. that’s quite the smile on her face. NEW facial emotes. She needs to exercise THOSE muscles as well.
If this were something depicted in real life, with real people, I’d tend to agree. But this IS a work of fiction with a cast of totally fictional characters.
Nobody in the comic really exists, nobody really gets hurt…Except readers who need to thicken their skins a bit. After all, there’s really a helluva lot worse than this going on in the real world. If they want to complain or correct any injustices, stick with those that actually exist.
No one is obligated to you to describe exactly why their line has now been crossed. Even providing the fact that the line has been crossed should only be seen as a courtesy to the author.
Exactly, what I was thinking Lurker. You just ask for criticism when you do a ‘courtesy to the author’ in a public forum or public comment section of a web site. Especially if you decide to raise a stink when someone makes a valid criticism on your reasoning on why you are going to stop reading the strip.
KnightRider007 made a viable point though that the line that was crossed that is making you stop reading has been crossed long ago.
Two people being raped by faerie magic. One previously not only a virgin but completely non-sexual. And both of them, of course, going immediately upon penetration from expressions which show that they aren’t liking the physical manipulation going on to expressions of complete joy.
That’s your mistake right there. Those are not “people” in the same sense that you and I are people. Those are fantasy constructs that bear no relation to reality and whose resemblance to “people” is purely superficial.
Also, for a different perspective, go to an adult roleplaying site (F-list for example) and check how many players (women included) want to enact non-consensual scenes (rape included) with their characters on the receiving side.
Yeah, I’m wondering why Oberon even announces that he/she is done with this strip and how long he/she even read it because stuff like this has been going on in this strip for a long time now so he should’ve stopped when he first saw these kinds of things happening.
Lurker
Everybody has their own personal “breaking point”, and it is legitimate to express opinions, engage in discussions, and discuss preferences. Asking Jaycee to tone it down is not out of line.
For the record, regardless of the view I expressed above, I am personally not happy with this scene, as both Patience and Crystal are nothing more than fairy-controlled marionettes, not much different from inanimate action figures. And yes, the fact that they are still aware of what is happening but powerless to affect it in any way is disturbing.
I enjoyed it more when the fairies were more subtle in their meddling.
Hah, you’re funny.
Remember back at page 15 or so, when the prude twins started raping the knight and were manipulated into liking it because of faerie magic? And at least half the comic ever since?
Have you perchance started reading this comic recently? I have, and I must say it looks far more rapey and less enjoyable once you have to wait a whole week for only a couple of panels of progression. Perhaps I’ll wait a few months before returning to read the whole scene in one go, because that way of reading has been hilarious in the past. And of course the novelty is wearing off for me.
Don’t act like this depiction is new in the comic. Faeries sexually manipulating humans with often unconsensual sex as a result, is the *core* of this comic. If you’re only realizing this now, good that you’ve realized this. Unfortunate that you hadn’t realized this earlier, but eh, it’s a lesson for the future.
If you’re disputing this, I’m all ears as to why the current scene is significantly different from past scenes.
So, the men being ‘raped’ by women is fine? Even though he may have ‘technically wanted it’? Goodness you’ve the double standards, the only medicine for that is a healthy dose of sarcasm and a slight motion of the hand. Shoo. Shoo I say.
The reason I’m upset is because Crystal seems more like a child than an adult. She shows up apologizing for being mean while not understanding the concept of appropriateness, doing things like asking for forgiveness while someone is in the middle of having sex. Everything she does that’s wrong, such as having Adan taken away because he won’t give her a peck on the cheek, is typical kid behavior. She’s flat chested and not interested in sex, just like a normal pre-pubescent girl. The faeries fall in love with her because she’s sexually innocent.
Once Crystal does something stupid – take the Elf’s clothing away because she thinks it’s ugly (again, a very child-like thing to do), she’s forced to orgasm. It’s obvious she doesn’t enjoy it but now she’s not innocent so she’s fair game to be tortured, a.k.a. if you have sex – even if its forced on you – then you’re a slut and sluts deserve every terrible thing that happens to them. She’s not a sexually innocent child any more (not that it was her fault) so she suddenly gets breasts as if she’d just hit puberty. (Rape causes puberty, apparently.) Crystal then immediately has her clothes ripped off and is violently bent over so she can be penetrated as brutally as possible. Again, this is for a character that’s mentally and emotionally a child and effectively 12 – 13 years old physically.
The fact that Crystal is blushing in the last panel instead of screaming in terror and pain doesn’t make it any less terrible.
This is very different from earlier comics.
Heather is an adult who enjoys sex. She gets punished with humiliating sex (e.g. uncontrollable orgasms at embarrassing times) because she’s so selfish. She knows better but doesn’t care. She enjoys the sex, just not the timing. Everything that happens is a humorous comeuppance to her egotistical ways.
Sir Thane is also an adult. He gets raped because he’s cursed by a spell that mind-rapes women into needing sex from him. He enjoys the sex (although it happens more frequently and goes on longer than he’d like) and the women not only enjoy it but they become incredibly gorgeous as well afterward. It’s intended as a hilarious win-win scenario. Besides, if Thane didn’t like what was happening, he could easily hire a male squire to go into town and deal with people so Thane could avoid all women.
Both scenarios are nothing like forcing sex on someone who not really an adult and doesn’t want or like it.
I can’t necessarily define where the line is for me, but this comic has gone very far past it.
Actually, Sir Thane doesn’t even want the sex most of the time if I recall. The first story arc where Thane gets cursed has him having unwilling sex with unattractive twins if I recall, and his curse causes him to get aroused if he sees any naked woman if I recall and his erection won’t go down at all until he has sex with a woman.
Yes, Sir Thane could potentially hire a squire to go into town for him so he can avoid women altogether but the again, Sir Thane is an idiot so that thought never came to him is my guess. He also may not have enough money to hire a squire on a permanent basis to help him.
That’s a very long and rambling way to obfuscate the fact that you have double standards. The core of your point is that it’s not to your taste, which is fine, but there’s a reason for the saying about not arguing with taste.
But it’s not, she’s depicted as older than Heather when they were kids hanging out together. That’s like being offended by a 200 year old tree pollinating a tree sapling, there was no consent there and that poor tree just hit maturity and if you think hard you can get upset by it. Realistically, everyone has desires, everyone has needs, everyone has cravings, that being said, not everyone acts on those. A fairies magic seems to work only when one or a mix of those are present, if we’re already taking a hop, skip, and a mile long jump away to stretch a metaphorical resemblance to hitting puberty, could we not also look at it as fairies unlocking the deeper darker desires that go unanswered and ignored within each character? This is all a matter of perspective people, if you look at anything in the right light it can appear much worse than it is and entirely different than what you may think. This comic has been vulgar, unorthodox, amusing, dark and a variety of other things, now that being said, why don’t we all take this comic at face value of strictly entertainment purposes, stop looking for deeper meanings in a pornographical natured comic, and stop trying to tear apart a fictional piece for some weird hidden message.
Charon the Fateless
For those tat TL;DR this: C’mon guys, stop being so serious over this stuff it’s fantasy!
I wonder how many people are ‘signing up’ to say that they refuse to keep reading?
…and I could *swear* that I’ve seen some of these comments of the same style and diction as others that swore they’d never touch this comic again…on previous pages…
Oh well; in my way too many years of observing and interacting with fellow homo sapiens sapiens, I find there’s nothing more appealing than something to complain about, be it something trivial and ephemeral and imagined, or something legitimate and serious and critical.

Hopefully the comic will finally move on, past this boring and belabored arc. Probably not, but we can dream…

You know, Patience just has to sleep with Albert and then she can claim she slept with all of the youngest generation of the royal family. lol

When did the faeries hex Crystal to enjoy this?

They didn’t. It means that she was either still a bit aroused from seeing that elf naked or she was finding the whole embarrassing situation she is in right now to be arousing. This also shows me that Heather’s family in general tend to become a nymphomaniacs and like being in situations like this.

People come and go. Most go silently. Those who state they’re leaving generally come back to read the comments their departure has generated.

Hey, guess what?
No one is obligated to you to describe exactly why their line has now been crossed. Even providing the fact that the line has been crossed should only be seen as a courtesy to the author.

A “courtesy to the author” is something done respectfully and in private. A post to a public forum is an open invitation for comments.
Aside: Jaycee is not the first to attract such criticism.
See, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gor#Criticism
