What? How does that even apply?

Well, Black Mage was hoping sexually.

Considering it was just mentioned that he recently went through puberty, this is actually possible...

As well as being an alternate defintion of blue magic!

I think this is the first time I've ever actually written out "black mage" on these forums...

JONJONAUG · 02-01-2006, 06:44 PM

...ok then. Excluding that last stupid remark, let's move on.

I still think blue magic is overrated. And in FF, blue magic pertains to all abilities, not just the magical ones.

Deathbane27 · 02-01-2006, 07:00 PM

This doesn't appear to have been said yet...

Black Mage appears to believe that blue magic will make him immune to the spells as he learns them. It is not implemented this way in any FF game that I've played (though I didn't play 8 or 9).

My bet is that Black Mage will, in fact, get Blue Magic, and nothing more or less.

However, he'll be in for a comedic shock when he finds out immunity wasn't part of the actual package, just the marketing literature. :p

What Magus may end up giving BM is the TRUE embodiment of Blue Magic, which is very likely to be completely different from what everyone in the comic's universe thinks it's supposed to be, and doing so in a way that ultimately screws BM, or he could even inadvertantly screw himself for a long time coming because he doesn't quite realize the depths of the newfound powers that have been granted to him.

Blue Magic has hitherto only existed as a theory. Were that theory not an accurate description of whatever power Magus is about to bestow, there would be no reason for him to refer to it as Blue Magic.

I mean sure there's the off chance Magus is just outright lying to Black Mage, but then in that case he might as well just say "Behold - Blue Magic!" and Black Mage just, I don't know, develops unsightly back-acne and then his bones all melt out of his skin. And then Magus is like "sucks to be you," and that's the comic.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen, it's just not really an avenue of inquiry that is going to get anyone anywhere.

Heh, I just noticed. If Black Mage gets his class change next comic then it will be at the beginning of Black history month. Just a thought.

Chaoswizard · 02-01-2006, 07:36 PM

maybe magus isnt giving him the powers at all but gives him an impossibly hard quest to get blue magic. then he leaves which would ultimatly piss off bm since he would have to wait longer for a class change.

Everything said seems to point to BM getting a class upgrade within the next 10 or so comics, at the most. I don't think that they're going to start a huge quest just for BM's class change.

Of course, if it does happen, I think I'll scream in agony at having to wait.
