For those interested in what Melvin meant by “break free from a totem”, see this page.

Happy to see the story progressing again.
Just me, or does Dick looks like Pride from Full Metal Alchemist.
Also I’ll ask the obvious question: how did Melvin and Red end mixed? Because Mr. Knight seems oblivious to the fact these two are separated beings.
I believe that is Melvin’s female form that he disguised himself as when he entered Dick’s building. It got changed when he put on the Witch’s hat, that he thought was a wizard hat and the spells attached to it redressed him to meet the former owner’s fashion sense.
It did seem to upgrade the female forms hips and bust along with the clothing.
BTW, WHERE is the Hat?
The hat is the magical part of Mel’s outfit, so I’m guessing it’s been shunted elsewhere, since it’s not part of this mental conversation.
If that’s the case, the clothes Mel is currently wearing are also part of the magical hat and should’ve been shunted along with the hat, leaving her in just her birthday suit.
Or in her
original dressstrike that, in the boy clothes Melvin was wearing before entering the “shop”.My understanding is that the clothing is *real clothes* which were stored magically inside the hat, and it brought them forth.
It would be interesting to see if some of the female characteristics Melvin is displaying in his male spirit form carry-over to his male human form. Is his sense of self being changed the longer he is female in this magic realm, or is Dick playing some kind of mind game on him?
I’m sure Mr. Knight knows EXACTLY how it looks. He’s not 5, he’s several hundred years old.
… I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s partially fourth-wall aware and is doing it for us. BTW, nice try but you are still enemy.
