6	''[[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/ Phoenix Flair]]'' is a webcomic by d. Marie Licea, hosted on Tumblr. It follows the life of Anala Karpe, a former [[MagicalGirl Avazon]] who, for as-yet unexplained reasons, despises her past self and the Avazon organization.
7
8	Anala is currently trying to lead a somewhat-normal life as a high-schooler, but is perpetually pestered by Couriers - essentially recruiters for the Avazons - to join up with them. Although it's implied that Anala is already an Avazon (or possibly ex-Avazon) under the pseudonym Phoenix Flair, no one seems to be aware of this, not even the Couriers themselves. Between the Couriers and her daily life, Anala is at wit's end - and to make matters worse, she feels obligated to try and dissuade other young girls from becoming Avazons themselves - a task that's easier said than done.

17	* BeingGoodSucks: At least according to Anala, [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/131211787567/page-29-the-words-dont-you-mean-if-your being an Avazon is a grueling ordeal, with few rewards and plenty of injuries to look forward to...]] and in addition to that, [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/131942856502/page-31-page-33-start-from-chapter-1 an Avazon is unlikely to have more of an impact than they would by participating in any other kind of benevolent volunteer work.]]
18	* BerserkButton: Two notable instances so far; mentioning Phoenix Flair around Anala got a courier [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/123006271092/page-4-page-3-page-5-start-from-chapter-1 punted over the horizon]], while Isabella [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/132141751752/page-32-page-34-start-from-chapter-1 does not take kindly]] to people insulting her friend Lily.
19	* EmotionEater: [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/130535123752/page-26-miasmal-is-both-the-singular-and-plural "Miasmal"]], the entities the Avazons are charged with hunting down, feed off the negative emotions of humans. Most people can't perceive them, but according to Anala [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/131003352772/page-28-lily-only-watched-ghostbusters-because they're not actually a huge threat.]]
20	* HugeSchoolgirl: Anala [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/page/21 utterly towers ]] over even her male classmates.
21	* InsistentTerminology: At least one of the Couriers has a tendency to correct anyone who calls an Avazon a Magical Girl.
22	* MagicalGirl: The 'Avazons' are an organization of bird-themed Magical Girls.
23	* PlayingWithFire: Anala is implied to have retained some form of fire-based powers from her time as Phoenix Flair. During a moment of intense anger, the [[http://phoenixflaircomic.tumblr.com/post/132387785067/%EF%BD%99%EF%BD%8F%EF%BD%95-%EF%BD%8C%EF%BD%8F%EF%BD%8F%EF%BD%8B-%EF%BD%8C%EF%BD%89%EF%BD%8B%EF%BD%85-%EF%BD%99%EF%BD%8F%EF%BD%95%EF%BD%96%EF%BD%85-%EF%BD%93%EF%BD%85%EF%BD%85%EF%BD%8E-%EF%BD%81-%EF%BD%87%EF%BD%88%EF%BD%8F%EF%BD%93%EF%BD%94-page candles near her start to burn extra-brightly]].
