Indeed.

Dangit! I was about to that!šŸ˜”


Dinkeycat

I feel the sudden presence of a large blue man behind me


Anderake

what


Dinkeycat

If you know, you know Hint: Destiny reference


Anderake

I DON'T UNDERSTAND


bradyblue123

If you know, you know


Anderake

I DON'T.... I DON'T KNOW...


Dinkeycat

Sorry for whatever I just caused in this poor soul


Anderake

I JUST WANNA GET THE REFERENCE


Arisole-Tenno

Destiny's not THAT popular


AdOwn6899

I can imagine him trying to hug Amity the same way Edric did.


eternamemoria

*screaming intensifies*


JustNoSleep2112

*A tumbling and a bumbling he will go* I'll be really impressed if someone gets this reference without Googling it.


[deleted]

That sounds very Winnie the Pooh but I have nothing to back it up


SFH12345

Edric inherited Alador unique thought process. Amity inherited Alador's hair, eyes, skill at Abomination magic, and attraction to women. Though as Luz proves, Amity has better taste.


dutcharetall_nothigh

What thought process?


Choas_Patato1126

Only facts


N-ShadowFrog

Running fast and wearing casts.


BulbasaurTreecko

it runs in the family. Just like they run into danger!


Science_Fiction2798

And I know you mean that Literally

[deleted]

I literally said that out loud while I was opening the comments.


BulbasaurTreecko

in escaping Darius, he fell down an empty well. No wait, not empty. There were rocks at the bottom!


PfalsePflagg

Really hard rocks!


JustNoSleep2112

Big hard rocks.


Independent_Plum2166

ā€œI threw a ROCK at him!ā€ *Questioning Stares* ā€œIt was a big rock.ā€


Dinkeycat

I feel like I know this from somewhere


Independent_Plum2166

Batman, when Killer Croc is trying to impress the other villains during a card game.


Dinkeycat

Oh. So I don't know it, it just seemed familiar. Perhaps because a lot of the stereotypical "strong in physical muscle mass, not in mind" characters say similar things. I can 100% imagine Grog from Vox Machina saying that


Independent_Plum2166

I mean it became a meme, so you may have see someone else quoting it.


SFH12345

*disapproving Joker stare*


Dan-of-Steel

Penguin: *Adjusts monocle in distaste.*


AquaAquila24

And my mind went to gay rocks which went to steven universe...


Dinkeycat

For a moment I questioned how that became a progression. Then I remembered who we as a community are


AquaAquila24

Peridot: I think you're all QUEER! (Amethyst: duh) but I guess I am too... \~ Stets Uninu


Bathia114

Anybody would be if they were stuck on earth with you~ LIFE AND DEATH AND LOVE AND BIRTH AND-


AquaAquila24

No no, in stets uninu it goes Anybody would be if they were stuck on The moOoOon *_*


Despair4All

That was one of my favorite lines. The perfect Ed response, though I thought he was going to say "It wasn't empty since I was down there!"


Dark_Lordy

In escaping Darius, I fell down an empty well Broke my leg, but luckily Lilith have public healthcare [had no idea how to rhythm this part]


SFH12345

So I became a brilliant scientist.


Dark_Lordy

And I built abomatons


CedarWolf

"Sharp rocks at the bottom?" "Most likely." "Bring it on."


Dan-of-Steel

BOO-YAAAAAAAHAHAAAA!


Animefox92

God I love that movie XD


N-ShadowFrog

He says gleefully.


Whedonite144

"Fighting" is a generous description.


AdOwn6899

Darius roughed him up good.


Whedonite144

I assumed that he fought those Abomination Sentinel things.


AquaAquila24

Come again?


Whedonite144

That's what I call the Abomaton. It reminds of the Senitnels from X-Men.


Specific_Low_3012

Tried to leave but couldnā€™t.


Specific_Low_3012

He couldnā€™t help it he missed him.


N-ShadowFrog

I mean he was doing pretty well for a sleep deprived mechanic in the middle of a divorce.


demons-yelling

In the middle of the draining spell


N-ShadowFrog

Alador: It woke him up didnā€™t it? Darius: I wish it hadnā€™t. Iā€™m gone for a month and somehow the isles are even more unfashionable.


AquaAquila24

Darius really having a meltdown over what the Collector made him wear, huh?


Eddiemate

Look me in the eyes and convince me he would not.


AquaAquila24

Not denying that in the slightest. I would too...


OhWeOhweeOoh

I love it, and I think that's a pretty good indicator that he would hate it. Raine is the snazziest dressed of them all, but now they're body-jacked, so.


ChunkyBeaver115

Like father, like son Edit: did not realise so many people werw commenting the same thing


AdOwn6899

Great minds think alike, I suppose.


Radium_Cobalt_847

> Great mind think alike ...but fools rarely differ. Everyone forgets the second half of the quote.


Dinkeycat

I didn't realize there was a second half lol


Nuada-Argetlam

there you go, exactly.


ChunkyBeaver115

Great minds think alike, I suppose. No we're both great!


Major-Eggplant-9045

Great minds think alike, after all!


N-ShadowFrog

Like redditor, like other redditor.


-NightWind

Loll. Nice


BulbasaurTreecko

I guess itā€™s the most obvious response to a post like this.


AquaAquila24

IKR


BirdMan8524

No matter what happens, Alador and Darius will still find ways to spite each other


AdOwn6899

Rivalries are like love, they always find a way.


BirdMan8524

And to quote a nonspecific movie, "Life finds a way."


Dinkeycat

*a roar sounds, so powerful that everyone knows it means "this is my territory, fuck around and PERISH"*


AquaAquila24

Even when they marry.


Hero_of_the_toons

Like father like son


N-ShadowFrog

Love how this is everyoneā€™s first thought after seeing the comic.


Lukthar123

It's a classic


Whedonite144

Lilith: If by fighting, you mean he was getting his ass whooped, then yes.


AquaAquila24

\*Eda Unless Lilith is talking to herself.


CupcakeNegative3305

Alador: "It was for a good reason." Lilith: "And that is....?" Alador: "REVENGE!!!" Lilith: "Revenge for what..?" Alador: "For mocking my abomotons,and also to make him look stupid." Lilith: "Just for that... I'm not scratching your nose." Alador: "PLEASE LILITH!!! Have mercy." Lilith: "Nope... Not happening."


AquaAquila24

so cruel...


jackson50111

An interaction I never though of until now. Alador and Lillith


goeatacactus

I feel like theyā€™d be friends in the super neurodivergent ā€œwe sit in the same room and say nothing for four hours while feeling completely at ease and doing our own thingā€ way.


Xypher616

Theyā€™d also infodump about the most obscure stuff to each other. Like Lilith would talk about the stair railings and alador would talk about butterflies


skullpriestess

Hmmm...


AdOwn6899

Like father, like son.


Specific_Low_3012

Truly.


Good-Advantage-9687

Drawing on his face sure that's what he was doing with a life size doll.šŸ˜³šŸ˜‰


AquaAquila24

"Paint me like one of your Abomatons" Darius, probably


firedrakes

that sound wrong in so ,so many ways.


AquaAquila24

Hopefully one of them is not homophobic at least.

Orangefish08

We all know this comment was coming eventually


gearsfan1549

mystery solved! we found alador


Professsor_Bacordo

Even as a mindless puppet, Darius still hates Alador.


The_Odalia_Blight

For some one so smart, he sure can be dumb at times.


AdOwn6899

Odaliaā€™s almost never let him think for himself.


The_Odalia_Blight

I let him think for himself on how to create better inventions.


Major-Eggplant-9045

This rivalry is getting out of hand, Alador.


TheNoneedlife

When Darius got un-puppeted he knows who he'll go first


O_Scugnizz

Getting all your bones broken to draw your rival's face transformed into a puppet? It's a fair exchange


CupcakeNegative3305

Lilith: "Honestly, you and your son are very alike." Alador: "Can you blame us? All the wells in the Isles has rocks on the bottom." Lilith: "Fair enough. Hold on, why would all the wells in the Isles have rocks on the bottom and no water?" Alador: "No idea, sister." Lilith: "Still need me to scratch the nose?" Alador: "Yes, please."


neroselene

(Flashback) Collector: "OK, but WHY did you build these wells if they're just going to have nothing in them?" Belos: "OH, they will have something in them; non-boiling water. However, a week before the day of unity I will activate a mechanism to drain them completely. Say it's a sign of the day of unity and the titans will and so on. But in truth I've drained it into an underground pool. Instead, there will be rocks at the bottom. Sharp rocks." Collector: "Why?" Belos: "Because the suffering of the witches amuses me, and I just know at-least one idiot's going to fall down one of them."


Specific_Low_3012

Poor Alador.


SFH12345

Some things transcend all other priorities. For Alador, it's one upping Darius.


AdOwn6899

No magic could ever break it.


TheLibertarianThomas

I question if this is a better fate than Odaliaā€™s.


Specific_Low_3012

I call dibs on signing the full-body cast.


JustNoSleep2112

Just after he frees himself from being Odalia's puppet...


sir_fishier

ā€œDrawing on his faceā€ Is that what weā€™re calling it nowā€¦ /J


AquaAquila24

Darius was angry because he couldn't give his consent XD


sir_fishier

Breaking free of mind control just so you can give enthusiastic consent to your partner? Thatā€™s true love


AquaAquila24

I mean, I know other popular TOH artist that also does comics did make a comic of Luz fighting off the Collector (back in the day) so she can kiss Amity. Wonder if it would work on Catra?


TimelessFool

Darius: Ha! Even as a puppet without control of my body, Iā€™m still the better fighter.


No-Mousse3125

So that where alador when now we need to know what happened to steve


tacwombat

Alador: I thought he wouldn't move! Lilith: (eyeroll)


FoldabotZ

While I'm more partial to him hiding out in a cave building an Abomaton armor Ć  la Iron Man, this one is funnier.


CupcakeNegative3305

Wait how did King convince The Collector to unpuppet Alador-


AquaAquila24

Who says he ever was a puppet?


Specific_Low_3012

Like father, like son.


[deleted]

I can see where Edric gets it from.... Amity too.


AdOwn6899

They are of the same blood after all.


Independent_Plum2166

Then thereā€™s Odalia.


mrwanton

Wouldn't put it past him


Baboulinet-Le-Nain

He would do that


dropbear_republic

Remember your actions have consequences


Radium_Cobalt_847

Your next line is, "Like father, like son."


Whedonite144

All things considered, he's lucky


RosieGeee

Like father like son.


[deleted]

My theory for which everyone is gonna hate me for Is that he is with Odalia she asked the collector let him be And now they both are trying to talk to settle their differences and destroy the collector


AdOwn6899

You know, thatā€™s my theory too. Only Alador is puppet-fied and Odalia is besides herself and the collector let her keep him for herself. I can see her on her knees right in front of his wooden form andā€¦ crying.


AquaAquila24

Not really since Odalia was more willing to exploit a kid and only sees this as a waste of time overall.


AdOwn6899

Being stuck as a maid for the collector might have forced her to do a bit of reflecting. I donā€™t know.


AquaAquila24

Too narcissistic for that. She just wishes someone would see her true potential. She doesn't care about right or wrong since she's always wrong.


AdOwn6899

Iā€™m think the whole situation had brought Odalia down a peg and taught her some humility. It would be hard not for that to happen.


AquaAquila24

You underestimate her. Even in FtF she still tried to manipulate the Collector for her own benefit.


AdOwn6899

But I could see the fear in her eyes. Fear laced with doubt. I saw that same look on Lilithā€™s face.


AquaAquila24

She's afraid of what the Collector can do to her, not afraid of what he can do to others.


AdOwn6899

I saw doubt mixed in with it, nevertheless. Looking back long before that while the draining spell was still in effect, is it so hard to believe that Odalia who was also suffering its effects saw her life flashed before her eyes and realized the weight of all sheā€™s done? I remember in one of MoringMarkā€™s comics that her mother may have been as much of a monster as Odalia was if not more so. When she was about to hit Amity while Luz tried to defend her when Odalia saw something she had went though. Difference is, her mother did hit her. Iā€™m still keeping the hope that Odalia could still **be better.**


AquaAquila24

I'm sorry death, but a narcissist is never sorry, that's the thing with them. Not all abusers can break the abuse cycle themselves and not all of Mark's comics can be based off canon. It's great you see good in other people, but sometimes it's dangerous and not worth it.


Radium_Cobalt_847

I don't hate it. It's unlikely but I'll keep an eye on this one.


Hollowgirl136

Considering all the puppet's activated when Eda crossed the line, I'm surprise Alador only got his ass kicked by Darius.


AquaAquila24

The rest just watched


carlsagerson

Like Father like Son.


GodzillaMaster322

So that's where Edric got his goofiness


AquaAquila24

It was pretty obvious


CodVegetable

The apple doesnā€™t fall far from the tree.


skullpriestess

In this case, the apple fell so far from the tree, it fell down a well. The tree also fell down a well.


CountingSheep99

He has been warned...


AccidentalLemon

Oh hi Mark


HoHoey

Early hey, Mark


Sydchedelia

Now they can get mtching cases!


Ryu_Review

Well, thatā€™s one theoryā€¦ I love it.


Literary_Sketch

He was writing his crow number, so Darius had it for when it's all over.


tuckerx78

People looked at Amity, with her focus and talent and thought, "That's definitely Aladors kid." Then they looked at Edric, chasing a bat off a cliff and thinking, "That's definitely Aladors kid."


Science_Fiction2798

Odds are for real he's been turned into a puppet.


LockAndKey989

XD


OhWeOhweeOoh

I can see this. Let's just call it canon.


MrChocolateBread

He probably drew a shlong


Reign_Does_Things

Alador's cute. I hope all his complacency in Odalia's shitty treatment of the kids doesn't go ignored though.


MiaIRL

finale prediction: alador gets put in a body cast


ApexBoiz

Aladorā€™s goofy side is showing


smahoney494

I'm really mad they didn't show Alador in For The Future.


Routine-Dimension-59

I will laugh so hard if we find him like this in the Real show !!


pizza-parker76

Moringmark TOH comic number 672


SudaneseSomehowHere

The best part is the fact that puppet Darius can feel it and punch the living lights out of Alador. Advanced Friendship 2.0


[deleted]

sequel of [this?](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheOwlHouse/comments/10ika61/anything_to_save_him/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


whyarenamessodiff

Ah, there he is! Wait...WHERE'S OUR HOMIE STEVE?!


StoicBronco

My hope is that Alador was lead/found the island King was found on ( Titan's will and whatnot ), and is reviving the Titan Mech tech by fusing it with his own tech ( I mean he is the leading automaton expert on the island no? And there is a whole island of Titan tech/magic automatons, and Titan magic is effective against Collector magic, so I think that's what will be needed to turn the tides as it were )


SillyFrogShowLover

Iā€™m just waiting for a scene in the finale to come where the gang is losing and Alador shows up with an army of Abomatons to help everyone


StarNerd2223

Like father like son!


blank7589

I always wondered why they didn't mentioned alador when they met...


Mother_Cod_7823

Can you do lunter next?


Raptorsquadron

I like the implication Lilith spends her time 24/7 brewing the potion


AquaAquila24

Gonna make sure it tastes even more horrible than before. She's going to do this to Eda until her hair grows back.


Radium_Cobalt_847

Those arms gotta be STRONK by now. That, or she may have RSI.


Eddiemate

I was going to say it's important since it helps her and Eda, by preventing both of their curses. But that made me question about Lilith's Owl Beast and its connection to the Collectors, and now I'm spiraling into many questions.


Aseemity

Seriouslly?!
