It started as just a few little magic nudges, but it quickly got out of hand. The gang playing volleyball, suggested by BuddrVinyl!

Flora... you make a great hype woman!

Wolf guy

At this rate, the balls going to pop.

Quinn Auer

Keith is Lawful good, Flora is Chaotic good

Keith Keiser

That's definitely going to burst the volleyball

Ryan Reaper

I’m honestly concerned Floras gonna be a mother XD

noxamillion

If only Trace remember the rest of his powers, he would easily win the match... and probably kill all of his friends afterwards.

Jayuzumi

That ball has a true purpose and your slowly squishing it 😂

noxamillion

Cheat Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger!

Wind Walker

I don't think Natani is going to last long against Trace.

Mr reaper

It looks More like the crystals aren't

noxamillion

He is a Basitin after all. They are known for following rules.

Estragon

"Cheat harder!" I like the way she thinks.

MoppyPuppy

Poor Trace, no matter how hard he cheats it will never rival how hard Saria cheated on him with Rose. He didn't stand a chance, it was true love.

Elvenhunter84

Inb4 next week there is a suggestion for "Volleyball Aftermath. The ball pops"

coredumperror

This is adorable. Especially Flora. :)

InTheLionsDen

Mrs. Nibbly should jump on the ball and go for a fun spin.

Kirien Fost

If she'll jump at the right time, just when the ball explodes, she'll go ballistic! XD

Vicroc4

Natani better hope his crystals don't drain before Trace gets tired.

Anonymous

The Magivolly game!

DiDiDi-X

Oh no the ball is gonna pop.

InTheLionsDen

Then when she jumps on she should be wearing a Super Dave Osborne outfit and helmet. It sounds like his type of stunt. (For those that don't know, Super Dave was an Evel Knievel parody.)

Roughlandin

The time is 1:22. Raine and Rose are still upstairs. Reni, Maddie, and Karen are in the dungeons. None of them have been alerted to the volleyball game already in progress. None of them are aware of what is about to happen. 1:23 and 35 seconds. Sythe and Maren look at the doors to the beach room and see the impossible. The enchanted doors, which weigh 350 kilograms each and are specifically designed to seal the rest of the manor against magical leakage, are jumping up and down on their hinges. They run to tell Rose, but there is nothing they can do to stop what is coming. 1:23 and 44. We do not know exactly how fast the volleyball was spinning when it failed. We only know the final reading. A typical volleyball, which is designed to spin at around 3,200 rpm, is rotating at beyond 33,000. The magical energy inside of the room can no longer be held back. At last, we have arrived at 1:23:45. Explosion.

Latency

I didn't get the impression that Natani was nearly strong enough to challenge Trace when it came to magic... but then again this is just for fun :)

metalman20

I need this animated, I need this animated, I need this to be animated right now!!!

metalman20

I can just imagine how she’ll explain it to her kid. “Now I’m not saying it’s okay to cheat, but only if you have to” lol

Spartan277

Even the former lead Templar can be stopped in his tracks by Best Girl XD

The Sexy Beast

Now you should explain who Evel Knievel is... 😉

Duke of Dooks

I hope you get to see this violently erupt

The Sexy Beast

"If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'!!!"

DarthKeidran

This just goes to show the, to quote Snoke, “Raw, Untamed, Power” Natani has. If it were to be refined, Natani could be the greatest thing to ever happen to Mekkan, or the most deadly. Honestly I think that Natani parallels quite well with Rey, which is why I chose to put Natani where I did on my “TwoKinds: The Last Journey” poster.

DarthKeidran

<i> I'm <b>@Roughlandin</b>... and this... is Destroyed in SECONDS. </i> I love that show, but yes, I get your mimicking <i>Seconds from Disaster</i>, or <i>Mayday: Air Disaster </i> instead of <i>Destroyed in Seconds</i>.

DarthKeidran

So you’re saying that the mask Chaos, chose the wrong champion, and the mask Order, chose Keith?

DarthKeidran

Or rather in the process. Because if he remembered his abilities, but not his memories, odds are high he’d make a fatal error.

DarthKeidran

Natani needs to be careful about the power being drawn from that string of grenades before they pop off like the portable Templar Towers they are.

DarthKeidran

<b>@Kirien Fost</b> InterContinental Ballistic Squirrel,

Roughlandin

Actually, I was going more for HBO's Chernobyl miniseries, but good guesses!

DarthKeidran

Yeah, considering they tend to be more unstable than the battery of a Samsung Galaxy Note7 when the mana’s being drawn from them too fast. I don’t want my favorite character becoming the next “King Louis” or “Marie Antoinette” and developing a “sore throat”.

DarthKeidran

Ah. How was that show? I saw a video from a YouTuber who grew up not far from Chernobyl when the disaster struck and was discussing details they missed that would have otherwise made the show that much more true to life, but haven’t watched it myself.

DarthKeidran

Better yet. Trace and Natani manage to invent cold fusion on accident.

DarthKeidran

Next pic. Natani and Trace are thrown back like two equally matched Anime fighters, that or Anakin and Obi Wan.

Roughlandin

I really enjoyed it. I mean, it was definitely a drama, but they did a good job of being transparent of what portions were altered for dramatic purposes and why. Otherwise it was surprisingly accurate. ...Also terrifying.

Silent Thunder

Natani may not have the raw power Trace does, but they are more well-practiced with magic than he is, so current-Trace has to struggle with his control

Malen69

I would be eagerly waiting for the volleyball to explode from the force being put onto it like that personally.

Jamie Donald

This is the only time flora should be saying that

Anonymous

I'm sorry but I have to contradict you. This is the main difference between magic and sorcery: the magicians using raw power, the sorcerers using mana from power stored in magic items (mana crystals in this case). This means that magicians are stronger when facing an unexpected trial, while the sorcerers are weaker; but if the sorcerers have time to imbue power on the item used to store mana they have access to more power. What we see here is a sign of great power for Trace, not Natani, cause with many crystal any sorcerer may pose a great challenge

Vicroc4

I thought they just kind of cracked when they were drained too fast.

Gone46

you killed me XD

Ordithus

Trace, using dark mana is double-extra cheating!<br>Natani's beachwear is a compromise between being a guy and having breasts. He could just let them be :P

ProudLoneWolf

Natani and Trace haven't really interacted much since the story began, this is as good a place to start as any.

FoxbitPlayz

I hope this gets collored

Aaron Peterson

Leave Natani alone and just enjoy Flora's beachwear. Or her lack thereof. Though I gotta say, fur + beach sounds like it'll be a problem later.

Recently watched an anime called Wise Mans Grandson. There was a scene where the characters were playing volleyball, deliberately using magic on the ball.

Kom

I love seeing the squad together. This is great.

Customaera

That Volleyball is me when under pressure.

Travis9x

Same, I thought mana crystals only explode if they're extremely over-charged?

mrpane

absolute mad lad

SCD

The ball was spinning up there for three hours until both of them got exhausted from using their magic powers for so long.

pumacatrun2

@metalman20 "Is that why I was made?"

Torbjörn Larsson

Keith is not supportive, but Nat couldn't care less. Flora is hyper supportive, but Keith is not careless. / Yah, it could work; ship the pairs!

Torbjörn Larsson

Despite appearances, children are going to grow up to responsible adults ... and Flora.

The_Nitpick

I enjoy that using magic here seems to require holding your breath and closing one eye. Actually, I wonder which will run out first: Trace's (comparatively smaller) lungs or Nat's magic crystals?

Dragonlicious

"Best girl"? He's competing against a man sooooooooooooooo Stop calling Natani, who CANONICALLY is stated to be male by Tom, a girl.

Torbjörn Larsson

According to Flora, Trace's magic will never run out. According to Keith, Nat's lungs will never run out. /Me, running out

Takeda-Chan

Their Boyfriends are Cheatin!!

Lexio

Lol, this is great. Kinda reminds me of the beach episode of Kenja No Mago

DarthKeidran

<b>@Dragonlicious</b>, please, don’t go around correcting people. Yes, Natani is presently identifying as male, but, correcting people’s choice of language is toxic for the community because there are people who have differing views on everything. The last thing we need to do is drag politics into the comment section every time Natani is in a picture.

DarthKeidran

<b>@Joshua Stewart</b>, please, don’t return fire <i>@Dragonlicious</i>. No matter how correct you are, arguing is also toxic to the community. He’s put his opinion out there in a manner that comes across as wanting to start something, don’t feed the embers.

DarthKeidran

You have a point there <b>@Sirio</b>.

DarthKeidran

If I recalled correctly when writing the above comment, The first tower the group encountered self destructed when Trace drew (or was rather, fed) too much power from it, but i May be wrong. I’m half way through an 8 day work week of 12 hour shifts. Insanity might be setting in.

DarthKeidran

It appears that there was balance in the force after all.

Isaiah.J.M

I think at some point the volleyball will pop

Dragonlicious

@Darthkeidran It is toxic for people to misgender trans characters. It is not politics to correctly refer to someone by their gender. Knowingly misgendering someone, even a character, is dangerous and harmful to trans folks. Excusing the misgendering of those that are trans, even characters in media, is excusing bigotry. Tom has made it painfully clear, Natani is male. Referring to him as anything but male is harmful and bigotted. And it is just plain wrong on a moral standpoint.

DarthKeidran

<b>@Dragonlicious</b>, I understand the point that you are trying to make. The problem is that the Male V. Female fight is one which has been fought off and on for the majority of the time that Tom has had a Patreon, and it tends to result in two situations. People hating each other’s guts, and Extremely long comment threads that don’t achieve anything progressive or otherwise. The reason this is a problem, and is toxic to the community is because “Progressives” tend to focus on “Political correctness”, or subjectiveness, whereas “Conservatives tend to focus on “Factual correctness” (not sure that’s a phrase anyone uses), or objectiveness. One is based on feelings and the other on cold hard “What’s in the pants”, and no amount of non-constructive discussion is going to solve either parties problems. (Constructive conversation on the other hand would be politely asking for something and discussing the reasons. E.G. “Can you please use male pronouns for Natani because he has stated I’m a man multiple times” is far more constructive than “He’s a Man! Stop calling him what he isn’t!” And gets very much the same message across). Just so you are aware, despite that my ideals more closely align with <i>@Joshua Stewart</i>, I almost only refer to Natani by name, or using words like “the former”, or “the latter” as that is language appropriate to the political diversity of the community. Additionally, I will never correct (although I may have in the past long ago) people’s choice of words, instead defending it from people seeking to correct each other (regardless of if it’s the male or female side of the argument) because I value free speech. Ultimately, I don’t want us all arguing with each other, it’s like beating the dead horse’s skeleton it’s happened so much.

Dragonlicious

@DarthKeidran This has been a problem for longer than Tom has had a Patreon, actually. Since it was first revealed that Natani has female body parts. Since his link with his brother was first revealed. It has been an issue. I got into a huge argument on Tumblr with someone who refused to acknowledge that the link even existed and that Natani made it up as a way to hide his shame (this was before it was revealed that his gender identity is not the result of the link but existed before the link had been established, for the record). This is not about political correctness, which is something I don't care for in the slightest to be frank. "One is based on feelings and the other on cold hard "what's in the pants"" It is not about feelings on the end you're claiming it is. Tom stated in his Natani ref sheet that he identifies as male while has a female body. Natani has stated in the comic that he does not want to be called female and to "cut out that miss crap". The idea that "what's in the pants" determines how someone should be referred to is harmful to quite a good number of people. It ignores the difference between gender and sex, which is the sole reason trans people exist, because of that difference. This is not a matter of free speech. In fact, free speech has nothing to do with this. Free speech means that the government cannot silence you, persecute you, or censor you. It does not mean "I can say whatever I want without being criticized by anyone". Because that's a misrepresentation of what the freedom of speech actually is, according to the law. You're "free" to say whatever you want just as I'm "free" to say whatever I want in response. You're "free" to speak your mind but everyone is also "free" to respond in any number of ways. That's what it means for free speech.

DarthKeidran

Ok <b>@Dragonlicious</b>, I'll give you that. I've only been a fan for around as long as he had a Patreon and I, admittedly and regrettably, engaged in some of the fights I mentioned. Also, I feel you misinterpreted what the message I intended to convey. My intent was to provide a little perspective in regards to what many conservatives deem to be 100% fact. Politically speaking, I'm centrist leaning right (by probably only a handful of degrees), so I agree with you more than you may think I do. Similarly, I'm not intending to deny the fact that Natani is identifying as male, or other information which has been established in canon (E.G. I understood from day 1 of reading the comic that Natani and Zen shared a mental link of some form, although the idea that the link pushed the gender identity onto Natani, due to the manner of the fractured soul was largely deemed by the masses to be canon until the page you're referring to where "Youngtani" educates Natani on their tomboyish/masculine preference in life prior to the curse). Ultimately, as I've stated in this thread, and to reiterate a point in previous threads, trying to get someone to change their choice in language is very difficult when the only thing faced is harsh criticism or demands to change. The only reason I am more politically sensitive in my choice of wording around Natani is because of transgender coworkers and individuals I supervise in both my previous and current job having meaningful and constructive conversation. Without that, I would likely currently be vehemently "shouting" something along the lines of "Natani is female and has a fractured mind" despite the established canon, instead of trying to reason with you. Additionally, I don't disagree with you. I don't mean to say that free speech guarantees not being criticized, but what I meant with that whole spiel was more so that we should seek compromises through constructive conversation, or agree to disagree (which most in the "maletani" part of the community that have fought in the past eventually seem to have chosen), rather than seeking to destroy one another on here (which is what straight up correcting one another tends to move towards quicker than a Tesla Roadster 2.0), for the reasons I mentioned earlier… "People hating each other’s guts, and Extremely long comment threads that don’t achieve anything progressive or otherwise." Lastly, I apologize, sometimes my Autism shows and I don't alway's word things in a way that it comes across as intended. (P.S. I'm going to hit the hay so I can make it through 12 hour day #4 of 8 in a row without any trouble.)

Jordan Dean Ezekude

Can you imagine Trace and Natani as playable characters in a Lethal League-esque game?

Dragonlicious

@DarthKeidran I've been a fan of TwoKinds since early in chapter 2, so I've seen a good part of the drama that's come and gone (though I largely tried to ignore it at first but I do love a good debate every now and then and would attempt such a thing) I do not align myself with any political stance beyond "you human? I treat you as human" and "respect is not earned but disrespect is so unless you earn disrespect you shall be respected". Because of this, many do find themselves agreeing with me regardless of their political alignment. And just as many disagree, I've found. Since you're not denying the fact that he IDs as male, it should be easy to understand that he is male. I don't see how it is so hard to understand. I'm not trying to get people to, as you put it, change their choice in language. I'm trying to get them to understand the reason why their choice in language can be seen as hurtful. Yes, in my first response I was a little... intense. But in my defense to that, it was six in the morning and I had been up since 4am and rather irate as a result. I also have seen Joshua for ages argue rather harshly in "defense" of continued misgendering of Natani and what I've seen was eerily similar to how my own family would argue against gendering me correctly. Since then I've gotten the change to relax and rest, allowing my mind to not be so cray-cray. I am rather ashamed of how I responded initially, though I do not really regret it because it was my true feelings said without being as harsh as I normally can be when in such a state. As a fellow autistic, I can understand the issue of words not coming across as intended. No need to apologize. I've been able to understand you well enough. Oof @ the lack of sleep. I know that feeling.

SCD

The ball went out of bounds, they both lost.

Ebin Shumate

Well if you go by physical gender then it’s one boyfriend and one girlfriend

Spartan277

There is no Dif in Gender and Sex, its the same thing, its ALL politcal that has brought this "you are what you identify" crap to the front. Nat has Tits and a inny, not an outy. She's a girl. You can Identify as what ever you want, it doesn't mean you are one. It's far more harmful to let these people who are stricken with Gender Dysphoria to think they are something when they are not instead of trying to help them aside from giving in to their delusions. Don Quijote was not a Knight, People aren't owed a winners prize because they tried, College should not be paid off because you chose a dumbass major and can't get a job for it. @Darkkeidwhatever, No. I'm not gonna not fire back when these morons. Good day sir, but I'm not gonna have someone "check" my ability to speak.

Argonwolf

Natani, this is not a fight you're going to win. Best to just play fair.

Bebere

Well, only one thing left to do for Keith: break the deadlock by smashing the ball down to Flora's and Trace's side. I mean, the magicians are keeping it nicely immobile in the air.

Dragonlicious

Gender and sex are different. Just because he has tits doesn't mean he is female. He has stated this. Tom flat out said "Gender Male" on Natani's reference sheet. Being trans is not a delusion. "I'm not going to fire back" you say yet.... you did. And quite rudely, I might add. Calling trans people delusional. I sure hope you never interact with a trans person in the real world because if this is how you treat fictional trans I'd hate to see how you treat real trans.
