Description
Now before I get lynched by other fans of Penny Arcade, allow me to point out that the title of this deviation makes reference to one of Gabe's own dreams coming true and was inspired by actual Penny Arcade comics. My defense:[link] - [link] - [link]
I considered Gabe's joy at the idea of being a princess hilarious, thus this image was inspired. The third comic simply clinched whether he'd actually be female versus being in drag, the latter I would find more disturbing. ...I have strange priorities. Anyway, I thought the latter would be funnier, but given that third comic, I decided to go with the former. I kept his face the same (his nose might even be a little bigger than normal), so I think the effect I would've gotten with the drag approach essentially remains.
Princess Gabe is essentially wearing a Pac-Man variant of Princess Peach's gown from the Super Mario Bros series, making this image truly something out of a gamer's nightmare (or dream; whatever floats yer boat).

I am highly amused by this, in particular because I've recently created an OC named Gabriel, completely forgetting that I was once an avid reader of Penny Arcade, and my Gabe just happens to already look fairly girly. XD;; Now I'm picturing him in a princess dress thanks to you. Good show!
BTW, nice touch on the Pac-Man accents, it really drives home that it's Princess Gabe.

If Gabe ever wore a dress, I think I would wet myself, in a mizture of pitty, shame, happiness, and...The need to go to the bathroom. o_O;

Oddly enough, this about right for Mike. He probably would enjoy this if you emailed it to him. Just don't tell him I told you that, he'd kill me.

Yes, makes sense and your idea is backed with sufficent evidence. Make Gabe a crossdressing hermaphrodrite. Wiat.... CAN hermaphrodite's crossdress? I suppose in this picture he is either one or the other. Well congrats.

Disturbing....yet strangely provocative. I approve.

Gabe in any office of power frightens me to no end.
But Tycho is the major of two evils..

Holy shit! I was reading through the Penny Arcade archives when I saw this! What a coincidence.
P.S. - I found your a week or so ago, and read it nonstop until I caught up to date. (I'm a fast reader with too much free time) I really like your stuff; keep up the good work!
