the joke of all this is shes acting like any of this is effecting Phil in some way, she could hit him forever and all Phil would do is brush himself off and ask if its his turn yet.
tho this is does feel like its heading down the path i was kind of hoping for.
Lilith is going to say something stupid (most likely about kate) and make Phil mad and his null powers will show themselves to not be as completely defensive as everyone thinks they are. still unlikely but it would be an interesting thing to see.
She’s attributing something accidental as something deliberate, and in her rush at having supposedly discovered her foe’s secret, she’s failing to notice that there is probably a *reason* his face isn’t “powder.”
I’m not sure if she’s angry, happy, or both.
looking back at everything else he’s been through the answer is he won’t even have a headache
No real pain, as in nerves registering damage, but he will have a headache, at least when he thinks about this beating.
It’s all just a matter of time…..Unleash your power Phil! Like Booster Gold!
…and my hatred of Lilith as a character just continues to fester like a gangrenous amputated stump in a Civil War hospital. Yay.
point of fact. he doesnt take damage, but still feels pain. so this is still a brutal beat down that hurts like hell. so unless phil can zone out like hes done with practice, though this time while being beat down, hes in for a world of hurt.
He only feels it when he expects it, and a only as much as he expects,
Phil only ‘feels’ the pain if he thinks it should hurt. Its Psychosomatic Pain. With his glasses off, he can’t see where he’s going to be hit and how hard so he can’t process the pain like he could if his glasses were on. The event is already over before he realizes he’s been hit.
You know those folding fans they use in anime, when punishing perverts and jokers? Those really only make a loud noise, and don’t really hurt more than feelings. That would cause more pain to Phil I think, than any other weapon can.
Actually traditional fans were bladed, and if you hit with them on the side properly and they were metal you can have a similar effect as a deadblow hammer
Yeah, but the ones I’m referencing are made of folded paper, they make a loud slap.
True but it isn’t exactly baseless, like many things that are now considered more as toys they started largely as weapons
Probably not as much as you’d think. He has in the past indicated that his sense of pain (at least for excessive trauma) is comparatively dull. Do also remember that for a time he decided that falling down flights of stairs was preferable to walking them ( http://yosh.katboxad.net/comic/short-cut/ ), and described being skewered by who knows how many blades as “only hurt a bit when it happened but now it just feels uncomfortable” ( http://yosh.katboxad.net/comic/poor-phil/ )
Man I really need to re-read this whole thing again.
