Commentary
This might have actually worked better if Grace was exactly the same each panel except for the hat, but I was already going to have to do a whole lot of layering nonsense just for the hat and how it changed her hair, and I wanted to draw multiple outfits, so... Multiple outfits.
Also, Ashley's not having trouble imagining different outfits, she's having trouble imagine someone other than Grace, SO THERE IT ALL ADDS UP MEETING ADJOURNED

Grace in a mad Hatter's Hat :)
David Howe
not a grace-a-monster then?
Platus
Fitting that, of all of them, Grace is the one who would be most fine with not being changed
Merle Blue
Okay, is it just going to wind up that every character in EGS dates at least one other person and also Grace? Just one gigantic unwieldy polycule with a Sciuridae as the linchpin connecting it all? Because it seems unlikely, but I'm not complaining if that's where it's going.

I have never needed something so much until I heard somebody describe the concept

Hah. Last panel only slightly inaccurate; the Mad Hatter's price tag in the original was 10/6, meaning ten shillings and six pence. Not that Ashley's necessarily going to know that either, of course...

This almost looks like a dress up flash game in these 3 panels
A Red Mage Named Blue
Ashley trying to create an oc who isn't easily embarrassed so that she doesn't have to imagine Grace? Yeah, just wait until Ashley finds out that Grace would be completely unbothered about Ashley just imagining Grace in those situations

Grace in a hat is truly the greatest OC

Fun trivia: The 10/6 on the Hatter's hat is a price tag, meaning "ten shillings and sixpence" (in Old British money). Basically, he is advertising his own wares by wearing the tag.

A seer could tell, a wizard or griffon or Luke could probably tell, and I'm sure there are assorted spells for telling the difference. Other than that, though, you probably just need to watch carefully to see if they press a button on their belt or something every time they transform. Edit: on second thought, a wizard probably couldn't tell without a spell or artifact, since that's what made Smoke panic.

Question: in the wild, how do you tell the difference between a shapeshifter and basically anyone who is on sufficiently good terms with Tedd to have access to Tedd's tech, or someone with similar tech?

Just serve them tea. Their lives are so strange that the madness takes care of itself. "This is the wizard's home, Where the hedgehog kitty does roam. Where an alien girl Turns into a squirrel, And dreams of defending Rome." - A perfectly normal description of the Verres household

Now I want to see an EGS mad tea party.

There’s no small amount of irony that the shapeshifter is the one she’s having trouble picturing differently.
