Oh my god…DINA IS AMAZI-GIRL! Wow. I did not have that in the pool.

It’s actually Dina’s hat that is Amazigirl.
The Candyman
Joyce’s hat is it’s archnemesis.

Joyce’s Hat: Oh, you. You just couldn’t let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable hat meets an immovable hat. You truly are unstainable, aren’t you? You won’t kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won’t kill you because you’re just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.
Dina’s hat: You’ll be on Joyce’s head forever.
The Candyman
“Hey. Hey Joyce.”
“What? Who’s there? God?”
“Yeah, sure, why not. Now listen carefully: take Sarah’s bat, and bash Dorothy’s head in.”
“Faz understands that your systematic devouring of him indicates your overwhelming lust for his body, and looks forward to the moment when I fully satiate you.”

Probably not. Understanding what you’d do in the situation you were just in helps you to understand what you’d do in the situation you were just in. Your reaction to how you reacted helps to form who you want to become.
… I think that all checks out.
Yes, but it’s not the adversity itself that is strengthening your character. If you persevere, then you can reinforce your strength, and if you are found wanting, then you can take the time to shore up your weaknesses. This, however, can’t happen during the adversity.
In Amber’s case, growing up with a father like Blaine would not make her strong (which we clearly see in Shortpacked). It wasn’t until she was removed from that situation that she could start to strengthen herself.
Shade
While your argument is true, this is not exact same situation. Amber from Shortpacked! grew up lacking in any self-confidence. DOA’s Amber has been stated to have grown up with anger issues, and anger always makes one more likely to stand up for one’s self than lack of confidence.
I’ve long wanted someone to make an animation of that scene with Dina’s head pasted over the raptor’s.
Somebody
I just want people to portray their size accurately for once. There’s also no evidence that they were packhunters.
The Candyman
Technically no, but plenty of birds and reptiles come together at various times, even they aren’t like wolf packs.
timemonkey
Does it really matter? They’re long dead.
drakeye
they arnt dead they just became roomies with Elvis…and the dodo bird
The Candyman
It matters to paleontology nerds.
HEYOUGUYZ!
Maybe we can explain it thusly:
The Jurassic Park engineers, in mistakenly engineering giant raptors, made a terrible mistake. An awesome terrible mistake. How could Dr. Grant be wrong too? Anyone dumb enough to take John Hammond’s word for anything can’t be right that often. There. Problem solved.

Faz hid that grappling hook there, didn’t he?
Doctor_Who
It’s Dina. She uses it to get around unnoticed.
How did you think she got behind those doors without anyone seeing her? She grapples up to the roof, crawls through the ducts, and drops down unseen.
The Sorayama clan are all master ninjas.

“W-who ARE you?!”
“I’m Hatman.”

Plot twist: Joyce’s hat is secretly controlled by her parents.
KingMabel
Yea, this will not end well….
Squall
I think something irreversible may happen. Like The Saruyamas consuming Faz while he is still alive. And he will enjoy it.

Everybody gets a free Ferrari, and everyone is happy. BUT JOYCE’S GETS A FLAT TIRE!

And you get a flat tire! And you get a flat tire! Everybody gets a flat tire!

OH BOY! MY FAVORITE!
David
It’s turtles all the way down.
JebJeb
Show him how the grappling hook works. Just be sure to put it point blank into his eye.
JBO
I bet Amber has read Watchmen. Hence she knows how Rorschach uses his grappling hook.
thecanvashat
But Rorschach gets caught…
broughtlight
College dorm room closets rarely have a built-in secret compartment to hide your grappling hook and various other Comedian-style gear.
Squall
I think I should sleep. I tried to read your comment and all I saw was
“College Dom nom nom”
JBO
College dom nom nom is what Walky does with natchitos.
Squall
It’s also what Ruth wants to do to Billie.
Endest
Heavy weapons guy approves.
Roborat
Yea, those rooms cost extra, she couldn’t afford it.
Elva Rodríguez
Her father couldn’t afford it.
DudeMyDadOwnsADealership
And what he does to the fingers of guys like Amber’s Korean mob goon dad…
gangler
I’m pretty sure she just has the standard hook on a rope to be thrown without the aid of a launching apparatus.
JebJeb
Well then that makes it even easier to “demonstrate” to him!
Mr. Random
Oddly enough, it always takes adversity to build character. Amber’s standing up for herself. Dina’s expressing herself.
thecanvashat
Faz is… Faz.
Rex Hondo
Faz is standing up for Dina.
Yotomoe
Faz stands up for everyone, if you catch my meanin’
Prickly
Pity Faz isn’t Japanese. There’s an old Japanese adage: The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. If you catch my meanin’.
RevenantBacon
This is getting akward. If you catch my meanin’.
Andrusi
I think a lot of people are going to get hammered after this.
The Candyman
You have to be hammered just to deal with Faz.
Heimdall
I’m not sure even Billy could get -that- hammered.
TPman
No, you have to hammer Faz to deal with him. I’d use a jackhammer myself.
AJBulldis
Hmm…does it take adversity to build up character, or is it only during adversity that one’s true character shines forth?
vsophi
Are they mutually exclusive?
Mr. Random
Probably not. Understanding what you’d do in the situation you were just in helps you to understand what you’d do in the situation you were just in. Your reaction to how you reacted helps to form who you want to become.

Nobodez
Well, if not for adversity, how else are you supposed to get XP?
The Candyman
Dude’s right. There don’t seem to be many fetch quests in IU.
Heimdall
Lots of dialog though. Especially in classes. You have to keep mashing that A button repeatedly.

Oh, God. And so it begins.

I know. I had no hope this situation wouldn’t be bad, but… Auuuuugh. *Shudders*

Then Wolverine carries them through the sewer while singing.

Dina’s parents: DO SOMETHING.

They are allowing him to remain focussed on Amber so he won’t see when they attack him from the sides.
