Oh, Pete, what depths won't you go to for revenge or whatever?

You know that sound you hear when you meet the boss of a stage in Megaman when his life bar is filling up?

I suddenly picture Cerberus doing that for 10 seconds.

So what is Cerberus doing there? Clearly he doesn't approve, based on his expression....

I can't wait to see if Pete picks an Avatar in this arc. I'm guessing it won't be King, if Pete gets away with/does something to Joel's Fate anyway. I just can't see how that would be any different then what he did to him before (essentially just tricking him) in fact I think it would be much worse then that.

Considering he's going so far as to mess with King's fate now, i'm taking a good guess he's going to try something in the way of messing with King's life in such a way that he's going to wind up in Pete's possession again.

and i have such a hard time reading it, but i'm taking a stab at it and guessing that word behind Essence is Deal.

But again how would that not be against the rules of the game (let alone the rules of Heaven, I mean come on) if what he did before was?

Edit: I could see him messing with King and a bit and making his life miserable yes, but not in a way that gets him back under his control because that's against the rules as far as I understand them and worse then just tricking him.

Essence, Fate, Personality, and Ideal...

I think our fanfiction writers are going to go nuts with these four things once this arc concludes... ^^

He could be using King's Fate to gain control. As long as he doesn't activel interfere with his Fate, it shouldn't be against the rules of the game, and King would just have to believe that Pete is willing to change his Fate if he doesn't willingly become his avatar.

And what if Cerberus' appearance is a subtle way for Rick to say that hew has abandoned his comic to Cerberus Syndrome!? :o

Nah, he wouldn't do that, right?

I could maybe see that I guess, but then King can't really do anything willingly because it would be under duress at all times.

Edit: I could maybe see him dropping the Fate ball in the fight with Cerberus and maybe that doing something to King, but we don't know how it works so who knows.

Actually, it's spelled "Cerebus Syndrome." :oops:

And given how even after the A Sinister Shadow and the Dog Days of Summer arcs the comic returned to the normal shenanigans immediately afterward, I think we're safe.

But that's mere speculation at this point.

Ohhhh, thanks Loomcat. I am not up on tropes, so I guess I need to look that up again. And I doubt it will happen. Just a little offhand comment that will make me seem prophetic if it came true. Which it won't.

And is Cerberus wearing earrings?

In the Myths I believe Cerberus is never actually given a Gender.

I'm sure it's mentioned in traditional studies that Cerberus is Male, but that doesn't mean that this Cerberus is the same Cerberus either. And if it is, it's possible for Rick to give his version of Cerberus a different gender as well in his universe since, well, he can >.>

Oddly enough, I was considering asking about Cerberus's gender right before I saw this. I'm always wary about these things when a new character appears in Housepets.

Oh, no, don't give the shippers any more couples to fight over!

Heh I was kind of joking about that anyway lol but that would be kind of neat.

Edit: Also I wonder is the Arcs title actually ???, or is it like a "the name of the arc would give away what will happen in it so it will be reveled at the end" type of deals?

Heh, now lot of people will be happy, cause Pete returns and he's just himself. I can't wait to see what he'll do this time, cause he's totally unpredictable.

Presumably Cerberus is a superbeing as well, so that means almost certainly no.

Arc 42: Life, the Universe, and Everything. :ugeek: (Man, I've waited to say that.)

Haven't even read it: looks like I'm disappearing for a bit, so I don't cause a ruckus. :? Be back when it's over, or whatever.

Do I detect some passive-aggression in the alt text?

I, for one, look forward to Cerberus proceeding to hand Pete his rear end seeing where this arc goes.

Also, now we have a kitsune, a griffin, an Eastern dragon, Cerberus, ice giants, a "spirit realm", telepathy... excuse me so I can edit the "All Myths Are True" entry on TvTropes. :P
