Kit being blind, which originally was a reference to a joke someone made during the tourney fight that turned out to be true by sheer coincidence (or maybe it was morbi posting anonymously).

>can surprise humans work in non-human setting
Sure, easily. If you extend it to "surprise 'people like us' in a setting based around 'people not like us'" then it happens all the time in literature and movies. It's just not Morbi's style (when someone goes out of the way to use farm jargon as animal-themed insults insults, then they probably have a thing for animals that humans would get in the way of). Also would be hard to fit in with the whole mythology focus of the comic.
>>
>>81341861
I don't want humans in this but I don't mind really rare appearances of large weapons or objects that giants could use. This way you can ether assume it was human or human-like

Establishment of some remnants of human society, that are brought up but never really focused on. It honestly depends on what you mean by "purely nonhuman": are you talking a fantasy world descended from Earth where bipedal civilizations speak English to each other, or some hellscape that's supposed to be Earth where unrecognizable aliens frolic around and display little-to-no resemblance to human custom or tradition?

I have no idea if this would fit with your story, but read The Jaunt by Stephen King. It's a short story, you can find it online.

It was made as a last ditch effort to convince the world not to make Hitler's war World War 2.

It obviously didn't work. They intentionally used World War 1 imagery, since to a lot of people World War 1 was an apocalyptic nightmare. Like the idea of another Chernobyl or September 11th, it makes people sober the fuck up when presented with the the very real possibility it is currently the eve of part 2.

The war happened sooner than expected though, so it was released and came more as a conclusion of the present rather than a warning.
Now imagine seeing this, then five years later a single bomb that destroys a whole city is created and used.

It's more about how easy it is for the average human mind to comprehend, I think. In this day and age, a guy bleeding to death in the muck of No Man's Land is a hell of a lot more graphic and "real" to us than an entire city obliterated in a single, blinding flash, mostly because nobody's actually dropped The Bomb on a densely populated city in 70 years.

Hold, the fucking phone here.

I have a crazy theory here. We need to see which panels we see of Mary or whatever her name is and see which ones have the key on the back of her neck and which ones don't.

What if there's two Mary's or more? Maybe in some scenes there's a Mary with a Keyhole on her neck while in others there isn't?

So Ofelia is Friedrich's wife, huh? Interesting
>>
What if the twist is that EVERYTHING is true? At least true to some extent?

Friedrich is already married to Ofelia. That's the wife he mentioned before. We've never seen his wife.

Robot replacements for the cast, as mentioned here >>81347180.

And the earlier prototypes of extremely realistic robots that could pass for biological creatures were an amalgamation of animal types. You want to make sure that your baseline prototype can be reconfigured to a variety of skins and sizes, right? So theme prototypes just happen to look like humans. The flat-face allows for easy attachment of various "snout" types, and the hairless body's mean all kinds of different fur could be applied. Assume that normal human bone structure doesn't apply (all joints can reverse and bend as needed) and arms can be made to look like wings.

Everything about Mary being true just makes sense on its own, as discussed.

>>81347026
I think Mary is some kind of robot, magical construct, or otherwise fake person somehow related to Mystana. Like a backup body or an attempted clone or something. She might be related to Poppy's family but only in the sense than all humans are related to each other through Mitochondrial Eve, but not more direct than that. The incredibly low magic potential plus keyhole is too suspicious.

I don't think Morbi was ever serious about making a game. He just had this idea for a fighting game with animals in his head and he did lots of character designs and stuff, and then he decided to make a webcomic out of it.
>>
>>81347745
I think Morbi began thinking of a cool "What if?" for a fighting game and he began making a bunch of cool concepts for it. Many of the Poppy characters came from it. Poppy was the main character, Mary was Poppy's best friend, Petunia ended fights that lasted too long (her black belt powers is a leftover from this), Kit was a enemy boss, Boris was a boss and his lucky star was a gameplay mechanic. I don't believe he was serious in making it a game since I don't think Morbi has any game making or coding experience.

Morbi's tone is as flippant and jocular as it's ever been. He just likes to banter with people, sometimes aggressively. He always has, as long as I've known him.
It sounds more like you've got some reason to take it very personally to me.

I do love the colors on his suit and the corsage over his stump though, very creative. However the lipstick does make him look like a vampire.

So I've been thinking.

Robot just seems so specific, and out of place. So I'm going to think robots are going to play a major role in the comic.

Maybe Mary really is a robot.

Why were humans portrayed as ghosts?

Could Mary be a ghost in the shell?

The bunny robots apparently come from the moon and Morbi has said that some scientist named Dr. Lagamo (or something similar I forgot what his actual name is) will appear in the comic. Those robots will play an interesting role in the comic, especially when they appeared on that foreshadowing page in chapter 2.

Also they will allow Poppy the chance to rip them apart limb by limb and be super violent.

Not so wild guess: Each of these is true in some way, because Morbi would probably find the sight of us trying to pick one truth out of a pile of truths endlessly amusing. Probably one character we've encountered is actually an uncommonly advanced robot (or magical) duplicate of someone else, living or dead, or one will turn up at some point. Freiderich probably has history with Ophelia, romantic or otherwise (I'll laugh if she turns out to be his sister). Mary is most likely related to Mystana in some deeper way than merely being a talentless descendent.

Of course, the reverse would probably be equally amusing...

Wild guess: Humans are involved, but as implied by the picture, will never be seen directly. The whole comic is actually set on Earth, but in a really weird way...

Remember how Poppy was originally designed for a video game? The world of Flora was created by a video game company as an MMORPG setting populated by strong-AI NPCs, governed by a council of "Archetype" AIs, one for each order or family or whatever of NPCs. The entire thing is sitting inside a supercomputer server farm somewhere on a future Earth.

This is why there's nothing "outside" the Floran universe, if I'm remembering Morbi's responses to questions correctly: After one of the Archetype AIs went rogue, granted all the lesser AI's free will and permanently altered the way the world worked, the entire project was repurposed to a passive-observation artificial life simulation and never connected to the Internet. Earth's reality, being a substrate, is probably more correctly defined as "below" Flora.

Spacehenge is the place human players would originally have spawned in at, and is no longer functional.

The Specter of Fate is the original leader of the game project trying to fix the world and get his MMO back by manipulating NPCs. He doesn't particularly care for the free will of the Florans, hence the name that implies that all they will have in the end is Fate, as opposed to Free Will.

Random unrelated theory: There's sort of a The One thing going on with Poda - she killed the rest of her order so that the remaining magic of the Cephalopod family tree (seaweed cluster?) would all be channelled through her. Like the way some fruit trees get trimmed so they'll produce bigger fruit.

This chapter seems to be about setting future stuff up. Poppy is gonna be the ambassadoer, Kit's family situation is fucked up and Chicadino is gonna have to deal with Poppy in the future. Also this is just my interpretation but I think Petunia and her Poppy and Kit fantasies are Morbi introducing the concept of Poppy and Kit being in a relationship long before it actually happens.

So while we're not gonna see shit go down this chapter it is introducing a bunch of stuff to happen later. Morbi can't just have Poppy be the ambassador out of the blue. We gotta have stuff like this first.

I just realized something about the possibility that this is all a rampit AI controlled video game.

Mary/Poppy's Friends robot is exteremly outdated and old, the second oldest is Poppy's model, third but maybe tied with Friedrichs model being the most updated out of all of them. It's an interesting, subtle design, maybe not intentional maybe it is. But especially with Mary and how old she possibly could be or just how many secrets she has; her mother is also one of the oldest magic users right?

Maybe I'm thinking too deeply about it but I find it interesting nonetheless. Even if it's not true Im enjoying this theorycrafting Morbi.

>THIS excuse to wear THE hat

The outfits the Mothers actually wear don't appear in the official church iconography, and Mary tried to pretend she didn't know much about Church lore in any case. But despite that, she knows this is Mystana's hat. So she either is Mystana, or she's at least seen her in person. And saying "this excuse" implies she could have other excuses.

Or she could be granted temporary omniscience by being OOC. And it could just be odd phrasing.

But hey, I did just notice that the symbol on the Church doors is the same one that was on top of the key Laphoda took. It's probably the symbol of the MoM Church in general.

In the first few months of the fandom. He had a giraffe background character. People liked it, drew some fanart, joked about making her the central character. One or two autists had blowouts over it, whining about how furfags were trying to take over the comic and ruin everything. Big flamewar lasted all night, with Morbi interjecting himself into the mess and generally stoking the fire.

Months later when he was putting trans characters everywhere, somebody from /pol/ doxxed Morbi over it.

Just head on over to the Poppy thread on (4+4)chan to see for yourself.

Some people hate any character having a sexual orientation other than straight. Valente is gay? Total pandering. Poppy is bi? Morbi is in bed with Tumblr. Hallia is trans? Obviously Morbi's friends are corrupting him after he visited a con (people have actually said this).
