Blackjoker:
I don't know if Hannelores expression is from trying to visualize an Okapi in space or a kind of odd consternation at someone following the conversation for this long.
Emperor Norton:
Actually, hands clasped in front of her, while looking more downwards except when she speaks to Elliot seems a very shy stance.
Yes, if she was arching her back forward and raised her chin and smiled while holding her arms that way, it would look more flirtatious. There is more to the "flirtatious girl" stance than clasping the arms in front of you like that. In fact if you look closely even when talking to Elliot, she only raises her head as little as necessary. She looks at him by raising her eyes. And her facial expression is DEFINITELY not flirtatious.
So in my opinion, Jeph created a perfectly natural shy pose. Its also why he draws Hanners that way regularly.
Carl-E:
Specious claims?
You can't do that on the internet!
:police:
Is it cold in here?:
"It was a rhetorical okapi! You actualized it!"
Kobukson:
Wait...if the "tallening" (as I like to call it) is due mostly to the spine, wouldn't that imply that the okapi would not grow taller significantly since their spine is horizontally oriented rather than vertically oriented and so gravity is not compressing the vertebrae down like springs? If so, this would explain Hanner's reaction to me in that she was thinking "what, are you thick?" while poor Bakery Guy doesn't even know what an okapi is, hence his comment.
