Whenever I hear those lyrics, I think of the Captain Picard remix. @.@

Exact same thought I had the moment I saw the title.

*plays the Picard song*

A truely epic pic, Mabs. :3

You have created a truly epic character here, and I salute you. :)

MINK IS MY FAVORITE :(((((


..Lol. I might draw him >_> Someday. :)

*gives comment CPR*

lol XD

m-m-m-m-make it so. make it so.

*highfives!*

Jean Luc Picard, as a point of reference, btw.

I just noticed the suction cups on her tail.

I think Mink is a guy.

Really? The skin color is so feminine to me.

All the 'cubi from Jin's clan (the one Mink's from) have the same pastel colouring as Mink, male or female.

Well they're all pastel colored, but not necessarily that SAME pastel color.

Didn't say the same colour, just the same type of colouring. But yah, I could have been clearer.

I think Mink is intentionally as gender ambiguous as possible.

Considering they are shapeshifters, sexual determination based off of genitals is kind of a transitive thing.

I guess we don't know yet if their Gametes are linked to their birth sex. For example, if Abel decided to become Abela for several months, would she start to mature ova in her ovaries? Granted, it could simply be said that the 'cubi would simply just lift their testes into their body, and still remain testes.

Ah well, various questions no one really cares about, heh.

Love Mink.

hehehe.. abels face!

Darn you! XD

I was going to say you could always try and find a way for Mink to show up in the current timeline by manufacturing a rip in the space-time continum to include mink as some sorta not really epic avenger of the deep seas... Or as a By day pool salesman and by night denfender of Justice... Or... Just have him run into Abel during lunch. Or stop by Lost Lake for Poutine.

D'awwww....i'm sorry, he's just too cute and if there were plushies of him, I'd want to get one X3

It would have to have a pull-string-tape-machine sewn in to blabble on endlessly, though... but that would be SO ADORABLE!!!

And his tail would whip around and stick to the first bit of skin it touches and never let go... but that would be SO ADORABLE!!

GRUMP!
FACE!
X3

Excellent art, Amber. Poor Able. Though, he might have doner something to get himself into this mess.

YAY for star treck references :)

yay for Mink!

Poor Abel. Cute Mink. That's all that needs saying. Wait, there are other characters besides these little side-story characters? No way!

Actually, random question: was Mink a part of your original Abel's Story plans? You know, the one that was 1/4 to 1/2 the length that it currently is?

Mink mink mink <333

Hahaha <3

sounds like mink would be the only one capable of singing (and finishing). 'the song that never ends'

I have no objecting with you drawing Mink. I love the little butterball so dang much, I know I'm going to miss him when Abel's Story is over. (Like Xander, and Shanna, Anna and Hannah. I guess thats a real testament to character development....) And besides, a happy Amber is a happy everybody.

...but again, fsdkjfksdfjklsfjklsfjsflk MIIIIIINK. Cutest tetacle gloop thingy ever.

Nice job on making mink I like him! I'm a fans!

you'll have to call again

I farking adore Mink >w<

But Mink is so adorable! More squigglies please!

Promise to draw him as a wallpaper!

... which pretty much guarantees you'll stop drawing him.

And the odd thing is, I know a RL version of Mink (albeit a female one). She's my SO.

And like Mink, sometimes shiny-object distraction is your only hope!

Honestly i wouldnt mind sittin down and listening to everything Mink would have to say. It would be somewhat of an adventure in itself.

"I enjoy drawing Mink more than I probably should. I should probably draw some of the other DMFA characters. You know...the ones that actually show up in the comic more than a few times in a backstory..."

Well the answer is obvious. Make mink more prominent and change the comic's title to Dan's and Mink's Furry Adventures! :p

or maybe thats a subconscious hint you need to put mink in the main comic more. XD

STAR TREK REFERENCE WIN.

Holy god, wiiiiiiin. Amber, I will always love your facial expressions. They just... fare so -well- in the artses. @_@

Mink forever. ~

Adequately sums up his/my reaction. Surprised amusement!

Again with the eyes and the smile and the talking and the cute! D:

How many sylables till Abel snaps... Do I have any bets?

It doesn't have to be like this.

All we have to do...

Is keep...

Talking...

Pink Floyd FTW

I have a solution to that problem:
introduce Mink into the main storyline!

Cute

Fffff I thought I would post those lyrics and be funny and original. BEATEN BY OP

Miiiiiink

Yes, Mink is cute and lovable.

Mink is such a brilliant character. Seems like fun. x3

You enjoy drawing him, and we enjoy getting fanservice of him. Life is good

Abel's face is win. :)

Mink is ADORABLE. I'm glad you keep drawing him...her...whatever!

I'm with the others here, lets see mink make an appearance in the main story! can you imagine abels face if mink showed up at the Inn, likely planning to help abel like a good friend and bringer of joy should? or worse, the chaos it would cause not just at the Inn, but also with one minks clan, since as I remeber their nto allowed outside by the clan leader? or perhaps the school is trying to reintroduce the clan to the world in a place they consider safe, after all theres two other cubi there to protect poor innocent mink from the world (or the world from mink)!

Do a picture of everyone in the cast cosplaying as Mink (and everyone has to use actual costumes, no illusion spells or shapeshifting allowed)!

By the time it's done, you won't want to draw Mink again for a long time.

You just haveto show pink up today also. That is the only locigal conlusion for this.

Plus... I can't help but see Mink singing Abe about the joys of life. You know.. "Always look on the bright side of life.." and all the academy whisling.

You cannot escape da-mink!

Any relation between your story character and Mink?

Mink

Man mink is awesome. it's too bad he can't be in the main cast and he's just backstory squigglies. i also wouldnt be shocked if he's still in the academy, learning in present DMFA time. teehee.

But Mink is just so cute! How can you not enjoy drawing him?

Make Mink a main character.

Problem solved.

The most adorablest filibuster.

Mink: 8D
Able: B(

BAM! onehundredandfiftieth fave!.
... and now I have that song in my head. Thanks a lot Amber. (<-serious)
=P

Clearly you just need to make Mink a main character, so that you can draw him all the time. Squiggle, squiggle~

It really shows how much you enjoy him by how well you make him evoke with such delightful expressions! I love dang-near every panel you've drawn him in! Especially when you'd brought him in with Aryanna: "You still wanna have the hot sex with him, dont you?" XD

Beeee-yootiful. ^_^

i'd say you dont yet enjoy drawing mink enough. Mink is like Desu. you always need moar desu

Mink just talks so much to drown out the voices inside his head.

They tell him horrible, frightening things. They wonder how many hats and socks he could make out of Abel.
