**Or it could be a case of MamasBabyPapasMaybe...he's half gryphon, his mother is human. The simplest explanation is his father isn't really his father at all.


Added DiffLines:

* Michelle's MagicPants don't seem to apply to her shirt... which may be a nod to to images of the classical grecian sphinx, who is invariably depicted topless.

*MaleToFemaleUniversalAdaptor hasn't appeared in the comic yet but it's practically mandated by all of the interspecies couples, many of whom could only have sex in human or midform because otherwise their intimate parts wouldn't even be compatible. It shifts from Fridge Logic to Fridge Brilliance when you realize that one reason poor Anthony is so put out by his transformation into a male harpy because it probably means that he, like most birds, doesn't even ''have'' a penis.

** Depends on how it's broken. It could be that the medallion just gave him the Unturned legacy spell again, rather than the controllable version it's supposed to create (or just didn't break the old spell at all), while still bonding to him so he couldn't use another. In that case taking it off wouldn't work, and even giving it up permanently might not improve anything (but would definitely make a real fix impossible). Hanging onto it and hoping he can fix it someday is his best option.

*If Sam's medallion won't let him shapeshift properly, couldn't he still go to fullform by just leaving it at home?
