The Young Protectors—Spooky Jones: Past Sins—Page 13

July 3, 2018 Alex Woolfson 73 Comments

Ouch.

So! Anaado refuses to believe that a Demon Prince could ever be good and sees ending the spell as a stab in the back. Things sure don’t seem to be going well. But we know Spooky can sometimes work miracles in the last second. And he can be good with heart-felt words when he has to be.

Will he be able to pull some rabbit out of a hat this time and get Anaado to understand? Or will he have to send his first best friend unwillingly back to Hell and torture, with the ashes of betrayal in his mouth? And if so, how will that effect Spooky—and his relationship with Kyle?

Tune in this Saturday to find out! Hope to see you there! 😀

I don’t like this ultimatum…

Although this isn’t really a normal relationship situation is it.

I would hope not.

I dunno, seems to happen to me pretty regularly 😉

I kind of also see this as Anaado experiencing a new human emotion: Jealousy. And when it’s for, what he calls Kyle, his arch nemesis, I can imagine it could get really intense and bring out a very defensive stance. Especially since he has to go back to torture and mindgames just to let that monstrous demon prince remain with Spooks. If only he knew… :/

I think that Anaado has only known one human and that’s Spooky.
He has, however, known lots of demons.

The crucial point, however, is that Kyle is primarily human and his demon side is subordinate to his human side, which is what Anaado needs to understand, too!

Well, this is awkward

*hugs Spooky*

I can understand Anaado’s frustration.

Could you imagine being locked away in a dark jail cell for years and years.
And suddenly you’re free! Set free from someone you know very well and trust.

And then he is like “Oops that was an accident. I need to send you back!”

That would be rough to deal with. So many emotions all at once. You’re happy and then all of that stops in an instant. A lot of emotional whiplash.

But Spooky needs to get Kyle back. Could you also being so afraid of sex cause one time you burnt your house down and hurt a lot of people. They next time you did you got teleported to Hell and allowed an asshole to make a deal with Satan.
And then you finally trust someone enough to do it again and then suddenly you’re transported to Hell again! This time… All by yourself.

Oof. There is a lot happening. I feel bad for everyone involved right now.

This third time Kyle isn’t in hell, but his body got snatched (he’s in there but unaware/unconscious according to Alex), and that isn’t exactly a great end to a date.

Oh good… Well I mean… It’s not good… But! That’s a lot less scary for Kyle.

He’s basically roofied with Anaado now controlling his body. Not the greatest thing either!

Feelings are running high and hard. Crawl into hiding hole, taking sneak peeks.
Please be alright

I know this isn’t a competition, but, and I can hardly believe it possible, I would say Spooky slightly beat Kyle in traumatizing ways to end a night of passion.

This is just another way of being (back) in hell, and the story behind goes so much deeper.

(It hurts so bad to witness)

*marches with protest sign* GIVE KYLE BACK!! GIVE KYLE BACK!!

Poor Spooky. 🙁

I don’t like Anaado’s attitude…….so bitter and hate -filled……right now he is no better than Kyle’s Father……time to send him back!

Of course he is, he’s spent the time since Spooky got away being tortured for helping him. Torture doesn’t make people happy and eager to forgive,

He’s just spent 7 years in a dungeon, with horrible treatment, only to get a sniff of freedom and having that and his only light (Spooky) taken away. I think he’s allowed to a little leeway to be angry and irrationel. It’s several shocks in a matter of minutes.
I don’t like to see Spooky hurt and crying, but I’d say Anaado is reacting pretty ‘normal’, given the situation.

This is a repost for clarification:
Alex has said this: I feel comfortable Word-of-Godding this one. When Anaado talks about Kyle’s essence being “subjugated” and especially when he says it’s “completely submerged,” Spooky understands that to mean that Kyle is currently unconscious.

I am really starting to not like anaado, I mean dude not everyone is the same. And sure him having been locked up like that can’t be good, but the rest of the world has been moving on with out him, he needs to grow up…
Sorry to the people who like him, but to me he is starting to sound like a child that won’t share his favorite toy

Well, fully 100% of all the demon kings and their ilk he has ever met were raging assholes, so it’s sort of understandable that he doesn’t make distinctions now!

On the other hand the one person he has ever known to be trustworthy is Spooky, so he should still listen to him and his judgment of Kyle!

Naado, don’t be a shnook, it’s not how you feel, it’s how you look! And you look Mah-velous!

The “last” button isn’t working right. It seems to take it to the page with lava bird if you start before then, and then it acts like a “next” button

Oh man I really don’t like Anaado, stop guilt tripping spooky damn.

He can’t believe that Kyle should be the first ever king/prince of hell to be a decent person, and from his experience that’s just not plausible. He should trust Spooky, though.

It maybe the thing parents pull all the time: I trust you, I just don’t trust them.

Anaado is a Takwin Demon and as such doesn’t have parents.
That’s mentioned on Spooky’s Origin Trading Card

correction: Takwin

Does it mention other demons having parents, or only the royals? I can easily imagine the royals keeping clear track of their bloodline due to prestige and pride, but the random demon minions and such…not really. Do the royals just create them? Do they spawn out of thin air?

I’m sorry, I misspelled that it TAKWIN …
Wikipedia says: “Takwin” comes from Islamic Alchemists and refers to the creation of synthetic life in a laboratory.
A Takwin is a homunculus, that is: a created life form in the shape or image of a man, created in a laboratory. As opposed to man who is Divinely created.

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is one type of homunculus.

I’m sorry, I misspelled that. It’s TAKWIN …

No no, what I meant was a reply to “he should trust Spooky” – that Anaado here may be like our parents are sometimes. He trusts Spooky but he does not trust Kyle.

oh, ok.
That makes sense. Anaado probably had no parents merely other demons to raise him as a demon.

One thing is for sure, Kyle is *never* going to want to frot again.

Yeah, no more “smooshing thingies” for him!

Why? he’s not experiencing any of this, as far as Kyle knows things went great. Yeah, it’ll probably be a bit weird if Spooky tells him about this but things you don’t actually experiencer are less traumatising.

Oh dear… I wonder if I really wanna know what the royals did to them ;___;
nevertheless I understand where he’s coming from… I mean try to tell a beaten dog that not all humans will beat him up D:
it’ll take it’s time… but then how much time do we have here?

Well, Anaado sure knows that Kyle is for sure “one of them”. A demon royal. Apparently there seems to be a line between normal demons and demon royals that isn’t just power. It seems from what Anaado is saying that the royals are more cruel and just impossible to show any kindness. He’s probably thinking Kyle, as a demon royal, plans to do something to Spooky if the spell is broken.

I wonder, though, if Kyle is so powerful as a demonic royal, is he aware that he’s being possessed/displaced? Is Kyle’s soul in Hell? If so, what do the other demons think of him? Is he being worshiped like the royalty he is? Or is he still on Daddy Laampros’ nasty list?

Kyle is currently unconscious in his own body.

Is that a Wonder Woman spin in panel 4?

I don’t know, Dave, but Anaado is rockin’ that breechclout!

I think that just might be a flounce.

I wonder if a royal was responsible for Anaando’s situation.

They certainly were, either directly or indirectly.

The fact that Anaando called Kyle “it” from the last page just made me ticked off. I feel bad for Anaando, but I don’t respect him whatsoever.

Yay, the birth of a new supervillan enemy!

I hope not.

Calling Kyle “Filth” … not the way to gain friends and influence….

To Anaado, Kyle is filth. He’s demonic royalty, and demon royals apparently treat anyone (non-royal demon or human) like trash. Anaado doesn’t know the good Kyle. The Kyle who saved the world. Who used his demonic powers for good, and even had the strength of will to resist his father’s, another royal, influence. Too bad Anaado and Kyle can’t meet and get to know each other. They might be willing to share the body…and Spooky…then. XD

:(((((((((

“I would give anything to free you, but his life is not mine to give.”
“The death of Spooky Jones.”
Is he going to give his own life?

That is what I’ve been worrying about for a while now.
The whole “something impulsive, awesome and probably stupid” thing.

Awesome, yes. Stupid? Does she have an alternative, other than becoming a monster himself?

Last night Girty’s Run Creek flooded from too much rain. It flooded two days ago on Monday. Most people think Girty’s Run Creek is a vaguely obscene reference but I assure you, it is not.

It is a matter of perspective you see…
Anaado has only know hell and torture and creatures taking pleasure in the pain inflicted on others. For a brief time, Anaado knew Spooky and experienced something much greater than his world. It’s an obscene and vulgar world.
But Spooky and Kyle grew up never seeing torture, never seeing cruelty, with love and affection mornings and nights. Their world only went bad when it overflowed {like Girty’s Run} once every half century, not daily, not by the minute, not planned cruelty for the future.

Rain? What is that? I have barely seen this phenominon for 2 months. The Danish agriculture business -crops, fruit, animals- is screaming and begging for rain.

You can have it — from Jan 1 to June 21 this area had 26 inches precipitation. Average is 18 inches. Since then, July was more rain.

It varies here on how much rain we *have* gotten in the last three months, but the alround answer is ‘not enough’. Some places, or most of the country, hasn’t gotten more than maybe 1-2 inches of rain in total since April, and it’s been weeks in between rain.

At least if you go for nature and agriculture needing rain. We just had a national ban on making open fires. This even includes having outdoor barbeques that uses coal in your garden. You want to barbeque it has to be a gas grill. You can get fined for using a grill or make a bonfire in public places – even places build for it.
There’s been a growing amount of regional located open-fire bans for a month, but as of two days ago it became national. That we have a full national open-fire ban.. I don’t think it has happened in my lifetime. A few regional ones sure, but never this early in the year where first places started the bans already in early-mid June.

The heat wave and the resulting storms are amazingly localized. Places less than 10 mile from my house were flooded and sometimes less than a mile separated minimal rain from torrential rain. It’s the way the thunderstorm heat engine works in the hills and valleys.

Yeah, it’s very similar down here in Germany.

It suddenly occurs to me: the expressions on Anaado’s face make him look more and more like the old Harvey comics character Hot Stuff the Little Devil.
(Anaado lacks the tail, and wears a loincloth rather than a diaper, but the skin colour, positions of horns, and ears are all evocative as well)

This makes me worry that as the angry words escalate that Anaado might loose his temper and start spitting fire at Spooky.

Hello Campers,
I’m all partied out from the 4th of July.
But tonight’s camping is open and anxious to hear from you, our readers.
What will Spooky and Anaado/Kyle do tonight?

Tough decisions are in the air!

How does this spell end?

Hopefully with Anaado voluntarily releasing Kyle, trusting that Spooky will come to get him out!

I keep wondering if there’s a way to keep Anaado here and still get him out of Kyle’s body…

That would probably need Kyle’s active support, but that transition might take too long to keep Anaado there…

Anaado in a jar, maybe?

That would cheer him up!

I want Anaado to stop making Spooky cry.

oh yeah!
