This entire thing is beyond dope. From his joy at her being able to move to her surprise re-birth. You are KILLING it with this. I CANNOT wait to buy one big ass tome of this story.
For all that Abaddon doesn’t want to get too Jojo in his postures, that triangle-leg stride of White Chain is peak “Hoh-Hoh! Then come as close as you like!”
“This is the truth of it, and now I understand.”
“Hm…interesting. What reason do you find for this, 82 White Chain?”
“Before, I was stone. No matter how much I changed inside, no matter how my soul grew, no matter how much I grew-stone remains unchanged and unmarked.
“To demons, they change as their masks change-or so they think. As their colors and masks change, they merely become more of what they are-no less but no more.
“But, flesh? Flesh changes-in every single moment, in every single time. Flesh grows, flesh retreats, flesh lives, and flesh dies. But, flesh will change. If I wish the changes of my soul-for good or for ill-to manifest, they must have a form to manifest into.”
“And, your new appearance, child?”
“I needed flesh that was as much as I am, that could become as much as I was and more. And if only for that, Solomon David, I am thankful for your aid in my search for enlightenment.”
24 Liminal Blossom Punctures the Heart of the Unrepentant, Deliciously
Well, I understand whole symbolism and all that stuff, but damn – this plain human body looks so much boring compared to her original four-winged, fire-haired, many-eyed and glowing true form.
I imagine there’s plenty of opportunity for that form to appear when she’s powered up, as she learns to inhabit this new body of hers. A kind of Super Saiyan, but with eyeball hair!
Solomon slowly turns back in disbelief, golden rings fall to the ground, the facade of his pride broken. The untouchable technique no more. Someone wakes the angel and now she truly opens her eyes. Transcendent, as flesh itself is the accumulation of all states an angel could ever be, for in flesh flows all from plasma to the neutronic beating heart, and so much more.
And to be honest, she does fare better in her next reincarnation.
So, like, I think I get what happened. White Chain’s angel form went thru Solomon, and I guess activated his key fragment? And formed a new body thru sheer desire? and I think drew his blood by becoming his daughter in the process? Maybe????
A soul forged from the pure cold white flame, and for it to take on a physical manifestation of its own. No longer an Aeon, yet not quite a Human or Servant.
89 White Chain truly is no longer shackled by ancient traditions and old ideologies. The Sister has broken the status quo in more ways than one.
As others have already said: ALL HAIL THE NEW FLESH.
But more importantly, quite aside from what powers does she have, is she angel/human, what will be the consequences, and whatnot, are they going to call a time out on this fight? I feel like both contestants need a “WTF just happened”minute right now.
Don’t mind me, just *screaming* over how amazing this story arc has been and how amazing White Chain is and how fantastic this is as a capstone to her personal journey.
Seriously, having her gender validated through transubstantiation during an epic death match against a martial arts god because she transcended her limits through sheer force of will? A+. The best. Could not be more awesome.
“…and a seam from the bottom of my foot to the top of my head began to gently part, releasing a humming silver light, and with a pair of fingers I caught the edge of the light and gently tugged, and it came sliding out, and I held it there in my fingers, I held her there, and I saw my body lying in the grass, and I held the silver light in my hands as her mouth parted, as she lay there in the grass her mouth parted, and with a sigh she breathed in, and the silver light passed into her body, and she lay there, perfect and sated. I have Gender Dysphoria. With love.”

You know, I’ve made up so much fictional scripture to comment on these sorts of comics, it feels pretty weird to be quoting an actual poet. But DAMN, it fits the page well.
“Trans* Manifestoes” is a great book by the way. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in trans-relevant poetry!
YYYEEEEAAAAAHHHH BOI!
Rebellion, the single right of the soul above Sovereignty, and in fact its basis.
I think, therefore I am.
I am, therefore I am not you.
Try me motherfucker.
Also, Love that I called the title!
I imagine this stirs the Primes.
Transition goals
Punch Dad, Self-Actualize.
Yeah, okay. Me too, White Chain.
That DOES resonate a lot, doesn’t it?

Forged by fire and flesh and pain, lo a new world is made in the very instant of the old’s destruction…
Vigilant Gaze sensed it coming, a Miracle of Change.
But none of us could have imagined our SISTER White Chain would … BECOME in this manner.
I hope Juggernaut Star can see this right now.

She had a good teacher, or rather, a fine friend.

Do it by/to your self
