MillionDollar Belt Sander:
I actually laughed.
innermoppet:
Hmmm has anyone considered the fact that Steve just told Marten he likes having a finger up his ass five minutes before someone wonders if he's gay? Maybe that's why he freaked? In my experience, most guys (gay and straight) really like that particular sexual move, but straight guys get weird about it and wonder what it means about them sexually. Doesn't stop them from requesting it though.
I guess what I'm saying is that contextually, perhaps he's not so much offended as he is worried.
Just a thought.
Near Lurker:
Marten, um... didn't you go over to flirt? You're not seeing anyone...
jwhouk:
Could it be that our dear Padma is a bit clueless at times? Perhaps like a certain barista (or two?) we know?
Here's my argument: Yes, the characters at our new locale (TSB) are similar to our current cast of characters - but not in the same package.
Padma is showing some signs of forgetfulness/clumsiness/obliviousness, akin to Cosette. She's also got some entrepreneurial talent, similar to Dora. She also appears to be clueless about relationships, like our protagonist Marten.
I suspect that as we learn more about the rest of the characters (namely, Renee, Elliot and Cross-Tattoo-on-Neck Guy) that they'll have aspects of their COD counterparts - but not in the ways we expect them to have them.
For example, I'm betting CrossNeckGuy may be a combination of Sven (lothario), Steve ("the good buddy"), maybe a tad bit of Angus (obliviousness?) with a bit of Wil thrown in (a poet at heart).
emikoala:
My favorite part of this arc so far has been the facial expressions of the Unnamed Young Gentleman Who Was Already With Padma and Rene. He's sitting there looking distinctly uncomfortable and annoyed with suddenly being ignored while the girls debate whether or not the cute new boys are gay. I love that Jeph puts those kind of details in.
