C’mon man you can’t just tell people those horns are real. Tim’s worked really hard on that disguise. He bought a hat and everything.

Bloodcarver? That you?
Or it’s the Satyr elder. I know him though, I don’t forget faces from comics.
Our fine Mustacheo’d friend is almost definately gotta be Jon in his human form. He has the same mustache style after all.
My thoughts exactly!! I wouldn’t be surprised it these humans fuss at him for cutting the line, then he blows up in their faces. It’d fit with that ball of sunshine’s character. XD I let myself be surprised, though. In Skindeep I don’t guess plotlines ahead–it spoils my fun! I do it instead in the movie theaters or on movie nights with my friends and drive them crazy with my predictions…which are usually 60% correct. >:-}
If only I could upvote this. Surprises in this comic are the best!
In all this time, we haven’t seen Jon’s fully human form (I reviewed Exchanges and all of the RQs), but I think you may be right about this being him. His nose isn’t shaped quite the same as in his midform, but his pose in this last panel is reminiscent of Jon’s pose in the last panel of Exchanges/Handshakes/pg10(?). The mustache style totally matches, too.
Lorne mentioned in Exchanges that Jon has a DJ gig in the city, so there’s a chance that someone in this crowd would recognize him as such.
Also. I remember distinctively that Jon smokes. It is another tell for me.
Relevant RQ is relevant … ;-)

Wondering Jon or someone worse like some kind of hunter enjoying the same style.
Tim in panel three: “Hmmm … I see that they specifically struck AM [link] from your license, care to share the story behind that … ?”
Okay, that is only funny if one knows that it’s a license for riding what is essentially a bike powered by a chainsaw motor. In USA, I think one doesn’t need a license for them, but needs to be capable of getting a driver’s license. (Basically pass the eye test, hasn’t gotten their license suspended for driving drunk, I think.)
In the States, it depends on the state and local laws. The thing is that the police usually have better things to do than check that your engine’s volume is below the threshold.
My source on that is that I used to have a beach cruiser with a stupid loud motor attached. I had checked all the laws front to back and settled on a motor that was way over the limit knowing full well that the police had better things to do that weigh my engine

(… and usually “included for free” with pretty much any driving license that’s worth issuing a document in the plastic card format for.) Sure, that’s why I added the Wikipedia link. ;-) Unfortunately, the UK doesn’t seem to have a sub-class for tractors (F/T*/K/L in other EU nations) …
Can’t speak for the entire country, but in my area, there is zero license required for mopeds (which fall into the UK’s AM, P, or Q category, depending on the specific model), only an age minimum (14) and registration. We call them liquor-cycles because the presumption is that if you’re driving one, it’s because you’ve had your license revoked.
(of the US; edited for clarity and accidentally cut that part)
Dude, you can’t just blurt out the M-word like that.
I keep thinking this would be so much easier with furries.
There’d be a line a mile long outside Madame U’s of people hoping to unlock their mythic ancestry
Well, I see Jon hasn’t had his medallion revoked again yet, so he must be behaving somewhat.
I have a feeling we’re about to see the incident that led to it~
I’m reminded of a story about parents who told their kids, “Never let us catch you doing that again!” You can probably guess the results.
(Cats tend to learn the same lesson whether or not those words are used.)
Heyyy long time no see Jon!
I notice Fall Out Shirt Boy has stopped smiling. when shenanigans inevitably go down I have a feeling he’s gonna take it the worst
He’s still my pick for the “unexpected turned among the group”, so yeah, that tracks.
The real intent-measuring spell was the vibe-checking friends we scattered throughout the crowd all along!
I have no doubt that monsters are real when I look at the news.
But not the kind of monsters from this story. The kind where it’s the mind that’s monstrous, not the body.
I do believe that was the message behind Scooby Doo: The real monsters are always human.
Saaaayyy … I just had a quick browse through Jims good-bye party in the Underground. Apart from the band and maybe one or two hands weaving through the tables, it’s just Tim and Abbie running the club, right? And since Tim’s at the door right now, that means that Abbie’s working the bar? If so, the humans walking in won’t remain out of the know / in uncertainty for long …
Yes, Abbie was the bartender, and Sam was a waiter. If the tunnel adds enough business, they may have had to add another waiter or two, and maybe even another bartender. But remember what Lorne explained to Tony: humans are experts at convincing themselves that they didn’t really see what they saw.
Most of these newcomers will simply continue to believe that the regulars just have really good costumes. (It will be easier if Abbie stays behind the bar and they don’t see her legs.)
Or, it would be easier to convince the newcomers that the regulars are just wearing costumes if “monsters” like Abbie have acquired medallions and learned midforms.
Not sure how I feel about this lady just… blurting all this out to a couple of strangers
Whew, I read all of the comics in less than a week! I’m caught up!!
Oh no I’m caught up. That means I have to WAIT. UGH
Hello my name’s Origami, nice to meet everyone
Welcome! Glad you are enjoying your stay! Might I suggest reading the side stories and Q&As? (I personally will binge the archives periodically)
