I mean they do psychic kung foo, so altering perception to change hair colour must be well within their reach. Fig's white was talked about being natural several times, so maybe they DO use styles.. for style!

Or it could be how he perceives himself? Like how Fig perceives herself as greyscale white.

I think the way Green is seen is the way he is. In the pages that lead up to Cherry's departure, we saw Sherry's true appearance, but Green's stayed the same. So I think that's just him.

Just saying that in addition to #45's comment.

I don't know if we ever got a real answer on Greenie, but Rule in 10%+ was legitmately that pink color--or at least Keratin's son referred to him as "Mr. Pink Wolf" at one point, if my memory serves. Maybe something similar is going on here?
45 . by: June 24, 2017, 9:01 pm

he does have the streaks, bossrat called him "mr. streaky"
44 . by: June 24, 2017, 8:53 pm

Though that said, WOULD his green be visible to others in the story? We saw him go white with his winter coat and he had patches of green. Is he just some kind of oddball? Are coat markings/colors alterable in this universe? Obviously we have Fig, who has a psychosomatic thing going on with her coat, is Greenie something similar?

I've always wondered, I know it's been discussed before but I can't recall if there was ever a definitive answer.
43 . by: June 24, 2017, 8:50 pm

Greenie is also a stoat. We've yet to find out if his coloring/markings are something visible to everyone, or something like Fig's flat white that only the viewers can see.
42 . by: June 24, 2017, 8:03 pm

What kind of weasel is Green supposed to be? The "forehead lines" on him are much more prominent.

Try this link instead, oops. It begins https colon slashslash, a prefix this thing isn't built to handle.

Here's an ermine who's shedding the very next area too, the sneer line, stylized on Fig as chevrons.

@Dani I was thinking that was more likely myself until I FINALLY came across high enough definition pictures of faces late last night, in real life, they are coloured hair! They frequently line up with the base of the brow whiskers to produce the illusion of an unbroken line from front views, it seems.

Pretty sure this is the same wolverine from page 74. He's a regular it seems.
37 . by: Dani June 23, 2017, 11:02 pm

I think RG could be referring to one of two things. Either "this time" just means this particular session with Fig, or that this session was not the first time it's happened, like bluefan suggested. I am thinking the former, because she is apparently "usually on point".

Also, not quite convinced Fig is doing oral now as an employee. Only because we know she was getting good business without doing it, when she was operating on her own. (Greenie overhears it in the bar scene from some stoats).
36 . by: Kaidona June 23, 2017, 8:34 pm

@33 I would say probably the former, since they've been with her throughout the story. I always wondered what those lines were myself since they didn't appear to be whiskers.

@kuu Not specifically, but microphilia always seems to go with either vore or, getting stepped on lol
33 . by: June 23, 2017, 6:45 pm

By the way, completely random but I think I found out about the origin of those lines on her forehead originating from her brows- I saw faint representations of them on a few ermines but not all, and kept trying to figure out what they were. I now think they're either hair parting to show darker skin underneath, or the very first hairs in the springtime to start shedding back to brown. Anyone know?
32 . by: June 23, 2017, 6:40 pm

She's like this because she told her sexual side to beat it (budum tdch)
31 . by: Furrama June 23, 2017, 6:10 pm

Sure let's go with that.
30 . by: June 23, 2017, 5:44 pm

He just loves to play with her big, fat tail.
29 . by: kuu June 23, 2017, 5:10 pm

hahahahoho I was going to say "I don't know. a foot job?"(well F job, after asking about handjobs) only because someone asked me if I would ever do that(but i don't know if i could ever easily be sexual with someone without me being almost a predatory "acts first"

but I thought microphilia had no connection to podophilia.
28 . by: Furrama June 23, 2017, 3:18 pm

She did tell (S)XY that she would do _anything_.

I think after she went to work at the brothel she would have had to do it. That or she decided that since even faces weren't safe with her anymore then why not?

Boys be rollin' that dice though.
27 . by: Kanya June 23, 2017, 3:11 pm

I think she never did oral for a reason though (chompchomp) and since Greenie is pretty much her boss, he should know better then to force her to do oral. Lots of unhappy customers, yah know

26 . by: Furrama June 23, 2017, 1:17 pm

Oh the things I'm learning.
25 . by: June 23, 2017, 12:28 pm

I mean, not to get graphic but it doesn't even have to be oral. It seems like microphilia is often about feet, it might be a feetplay thing. Or a very creative handjob type activity.
24 . by: ItPierces June 23, 2017, 10:36 am

I'm pretty sure that being brought to the brothel meant XX could no longer choose not to do oral. That's a rule she set when she was working on her own. It has no meaning here. She does oral...now.
23 . by: hazard June 23, 2017, 8:22 am

Omg Fig is letting herself be bad at her job, at sex!

The flawless white of her reputation will become marred.

Was pride the trap???
22 . by: Downhill June 23, 2017, 7:52 am

Who knows, maybe this odd pairing works out because he's one of the oddballs we heard about earlier! She just burps on him and he's done.
21 . by: bluefan June 23, 2017, 7:15 am

Uhm... did wolverine remove his mantle during the conversation? :P

I love this page, and this customer XD he's so sweet.
"you should ask for a refund this time." ... Does RG mean that for this happened before?
20 . by: kuu June 23, 2017, 5:38 am

i guess we just assumed the wolverine was fiesty, and of course a larger animal. assume the fiesty because they have a reputation of being brawlers(although I watched a documentary apparently females are very good to their own kind)

as for the "not one type of sex act" , because Fig/XX dosen't do oral, it's a challange to imagine what they will be doing. these animals think like humans but are not shaped as such.

so a "what else do they do". I try to think back to what animals have been seen doing, and trying to apply to what human sexual antics involve. and I guess we assume Fig/XX is on the receving end of action, based on the "she can take on a wolverine"
19 . by: June 23, 2017, 2:31 am

I like Wolverine, he seems to actually be concerned about her, not just about getting his moneys worth.
18 . by: Kai June 23, 2017, 2:28 am

Sherry isn't gonna like this. She was 100% serious about killing Fig if she slacked.. And Green won't be thrilled, either. Humorous pages are usually followed by something bad soon after.

"Horses have ass" was quickly followed by Green and Sherry threatening the workers, and Cherry leaving to prevent violence.
17 . by: Witch June 23, 2017, 12:53 am

i love you fig

In previous dreams, one side was always calling to the other through the mirror, by name, and the other always responded in some fashions. Not so in this dream, the other side is either unwilling, or unable to answer.
15 . by: ItPierces June 22, 2017, 10:52 pm

@10 It's not just this page: 177 may strongly, if subtly, mirror 77. If both 183 and 195 have dreams mirroring 83 and 95, respectively, we'll have a definite offset 100 pattern. Of course, even without a strict offset, XX's new dreams may mirror the old ones.
14 . by: June 22, 2017, 10:31 pm

As silly as this scene is, it doesn't bode well in terms of how Greenie and Sherry will respond to this.
13 . by: Furrama June 22, 2017, 10:20 pm

I looked, and the internet doesn't have terribly much to say about it unless you want to dig through a bunch of X-Men porn.

But from what I can tell, they're not terribly well endowed. But even so, there's more than one type of sex act.
12 . by: Crescent June 22, 2017, 10:07 pm

I'm laughing, Fig is so small in comparison, how does that not *hurt* her. Unless Wolverines have relatively small sex organs, I don't know, and I'd rather not have that in my search history hahaha.
11 . by: Papeipou June 22, 2017, 9:30 pm

It's funny, I read so much meaning into the color purple whenever it appears.. but I think it's just a large part of Zach's palette.
10 . by: Juna June 22, 2017, 8:54 pm

Oh you're right. It was the fisher who was rough with Pomelo, the wolverine was just mentioned in the convo about size difference.

That aside, liking the transition in the first two panels! It's like a less frightening version of how XX woke from her first mirror dream.
9 . by: Furrama June 22, 2017, 8:50 pm

I don't think anyone ever said he was rough, just... a wolverine (let's not be racist now XD). He might just have a microphilia fetish and be perfectly decent.
8 . by: June 22, 2017, 8:47 pm

Heh, maybe XX is dragging Fig back under for more fighting.

"C'mere, I'm not finished with you yet!"
7 . by: Juna June 22, 2017, 8:43 pm

So this is the notorious rough wolverine. Seems nice enough!

And I'm betting hidden XX is trying to take back control... by triggering narcoleptic fits? That may be one way to get out of a job.
6 . by: Seven June 22, 2017, 8:40 pm

Well she wasn't lying about finding out. (tucks Figgy in and gives her a *smek* good night)
5 . by: Furrama June 22, 2017, 8:16 pm

Nice... L shaped whisker there bedhead.

Cue (E)XY to come yell at her for not fulfilling her roll.
4 . by: June 22, 2017, 8:15 pm

ditch smoothie date the wolverine
3 . by: Tenka June 22, 2017, 8:13 pm

Panels 7 and 8 are the most funny panels in this whole comic so far. I'm also happy to finally see the wolverine.
2 . by: Magenta June 22, 2017, 8:03 pm

The wolverine seems like a halfway decent fellow, anyways, being concerned about her.
1 . by: Magenta June 22, 2017, 7:58 pm

Hm. Maybe Fig can find a client with a narcolepsy fetish.
