Out of character moments

(1/2) > >>

antidemagogue:
I like when characters surprise you by saying something totally different from their normal style (ie raven in http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1129). It feels a little stretched, since it does go against the character that's been built up over time. But it gives me hope that all the annoying ditsy people I know irl have profound analyzes of modern political thought hidden somewhere, just waiting to surprise me. This comic gives me hope in the intelligence of humanity.

Raven's much smarter than she acts. I think that line of hers was very in-character, especially taken as a whole along with her next line.

est:
Raven's come out with stuff like this before.  I have a feeling Raven's book-smart in certain areas, but generally kind of naive about the world.  I knew a girl like that in highschool.  Would top the school in certain things, but have absolutely no idea in others, or how to extrapolate general cases from specific examples, etc.

KamikaziCal:
Yea, in my experience, even the dumbest of people are smart in a few areas... Like I knew some people I thought were really dumb, then we have had in depth conversations on some literature, or philosophy or something.. And I'm sure people would consider "us" (meaning the people that consider themselves smart) to be stupid when it comes to certain topics.

Just goes to show, never judge a book by it's cover... Or by it's first few chapters..?
Unless the cover is really hot... Then you know the book will be awesome anyway.

Surgoshan:
Raven's fairly well read in some specific areas, and intelligent in general, it's just that she's very trusting and has quite simple tastes.
