Odal:
I was also a little confused. I need to slow down when I read these because I thought it was going to be one of those awkward moments between Hanners and Dora since Hanners went out with Sven. And the fifth panel almost made sense as Hanner's paranoia about her coffee being posioned with Dora's Demon Juice, except that the demons also killed Dora which is when it stopped making sense.
I think the awkwardness is (mostly) out of the way, but that was my initial reaction.

A completely healthy person ... apparently is a bore ?

Probably. I don't think I know any, so I can't really judge...

I'm sure some of it was exaggerated for comic effect, but still, even if there's just a germ of truth to his story, it points to some interesting issues.

I'm not sure if one single bad relationship qualifies for "relationship issues".
--- End quote ---
I concur.

We don't know how many were like that before... but yeah, one element does not a reliable sample make!

--- End quote ---
Hmm no.
I think Fayes skill at sass is what attracted him.
--- End quote ---
Along with being thrown across a bar? Remember, sass is verbal abuse, unless consentual. And it never is, at first!
--- Quote ---And he probably simply thinks she's cute.
--- End quote ---
Yes. Why else put up with all her sass? Unless, maybe he was enjoying it.
Really, though - I'm just playing devil's advocate here. I doubt Angus is that much of a masochist. He found someone he liked, based on what he saw behind the sass, and there were barriers, and he conquered them with patience and persistance.
How many of us can say the same? It's admirable, if it weren't for the "never take no for an answer" aspect of it. I think that may be part of what others find creepy about him.
Heliphyneau:
I can only imagine what they'll put on the chalkboard now after that. :wink:
Panel 5 is awesome! :mrgreen: Perhaps even the beginnings of a special QC Halloween poster, mwahahaha.
Random Wanderer:
Oh Hannelore. Your mind is an endlessly amusing place. Though liable to give me nightmares if I gaze upon it too long.

Actually, Angus knows when to take 'no' as an answer when Faye expresses herself directly and honestly. He turns things down considerably after that. Yes, he's still around, but in a much more low-key way.
My guess is that before that, Faye was so over-the-top it was hard to know whether she was serious or not.
