Man, there have got to be some sweet pickin's at the QC Lost & Found.

Judging by the utensils, the edamame, and the sake bottles and cups, I'm pretty sure it's a Japanese restaurant.

In the box on the sign on the wall behind Sven's head where the restaurant is proclaimed "Best in the Valley," it says "SUSHI." Though there are some vegetable options, most sushi is not vegan.
--- Quote from: Carl-E on 04 Oct 2010, 09:00 ---Yes, it's a toss off joke, and Sven probably knows it'll go right over Hanner's head, but really - he promised he'd be a gentleman, and no gentleman would make a comment like that. It's just this side of "that's what she said!"
--- End quote ---
And where was his top hat and monocle? Gentleman indeed, harrumph. :-P He probably just couldn't help but make that joke. I detected no malice in it, though. Much like when Angus was conversing with Hanners after she stayed the night with Marigold, there is an undercurrent of wonder ("Wow, that really did go right over her head") and affection ("D'aww, her uncorrupted view of the world makes her adorable") there. I think at this point Sven knows that any joke like that is gonna sail over Hanners' head and that to make the extra effort to make sure she got the joke would either result in her embarassment (which would be less nice) or be completely futile, essentially showing that he is equipped with a Useless Sledgehammer Made Entirely of Boobs.
--- Quote from: Carl-E on 04 Oct 2010, 09:00 ---OK, Sven says they'd normally kiss. Hanner's face is unbeleivably cutre with the realization and moment's contemplation of what he's said.
--- End quote ---
I love Hanners' face in the next-to-last panel (numbar 7). That can totally go in the gallery of expressions Jeph has drawn that make me giggle every time I see them. :-D
And everyone knows that cold weather is the perfect time to get a hot fudge sundae -- because c'mon, it's both hot and cold! Also mmmm . . .

--- Quote from: Mojo on 04 Oct 2010, 09:06 ---Sven knows he can't kiss her, and I reeeeeally doubt he'd even try it. He's amused because he knows how she'll react. In other words, he's teasing her. Perfectly fine behaviour on a date. In fact, it can go a long way.
--- End quote ---
Normally, yes. But you have to keep in mind whom he's dealing with right now; he is on thin ice.
bhtooefr:
Keep in mind... Hanners is nothing if not assertive when she needs to be.
And she hasn't ended the date. Therefore, the experience hasn't been that bad, apparently...
Mr_Rose:
Yeah, you piss off Hannelore at your peril; quite apart from the unconfirmed years-later-serial-killer-vengeance vibe she emits from time to time, she can apparently channel her mother at-will...
Plus, she's friends with some of the orbital death-rays.
