It's a secret! (waffles)

No peeking!

Hanners continuing to peek anyway.

The unmentionable DAAAAAANG

Pintsize's coma

"Damn, girl!"

Mister gentleman

First he was all , and then he was , but soon he was , and finally he was

BOOBS!

Happy Arbor Day 2003!

[Welu]

Somehow when I first read the comic this morning, I thought the whole background in the last panel was the wall, so Faye had made Hanners turn around and stare at the wall and was telling her she couldn't look while Faye and Tai stared.

I like the actual last panel better.

[Akima]

Still, better than Pad-ten.  Paden?  Paten?  Patton?

Paten could be quite romantic...

"Sit, Jessica. Look how the floor of heaven
Is thick inlaid with patens of bright gold:
There's not the smallest orb which thou behold'st
But in his motion like an angel sings,
Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubins;
Such harmony is in immortal souls;
But whilst this muddy vesture of decay
Doth grossly close it in, we cannot hear it."

[Throg]

Happy Arbor Day

Somehow, I knew Hanners would peek. Wonder what it'll show about her relationship with Marten: whether it's really purely platonic or the stalking / biological sample collection has any deeper significance.

I imagine Hannelore would love to be able to have a relationship with Marten, but knows it will never happen, and is (fairly) OK with it. She also tends to be quite happy about the other characters' uh... happiness.

+1, mademoiselle, +1 An impressive use of the Bard's work, with interesting implications.

[Yarin]

in the newest comic 2056 in the second panel on the right does it look like there was something there that didn't load properly or is it just me?

[raoullefere]

If they get down to sexy times, can we call them Marma-laid?

No, just

No

Yes! I mean no. I… I think I mean I agree.

You're encouraging him.
Also, the spellchecker markups Firefox puts in this remind me of the correction fluid company time travel joke in Adams' stuff

[idontunderstand]

Blabla

Blah blah bluh?

[Sorflakne]

I like Hanners with longer hair.

[Is it cold in here?]

Hannelore doesn't get prettied up for Marten or do any of the standard female courting activities, which she probably knows about from reading.

Her fantasies have been shown, and they didn't involve Marten, unless he has a job we don't know about as a volunteer fireman.

[ink slinger]

I surprised that Hannelore didn't 'YEEEELLLLLLL' when she saw all that smooching... All that fluid interchange, full of bacteria and dental plaque!!

Hannelore, while more or less OK with her semi-asexuality (for lack of a better term), is not uninterested in love/sex/etc. Try to kiss her and she'll freak out, but she is not grossed out by other people kissing. Of course, if things start getting too hot and heavy they'll have to burn the couch before she agrees to visit again.

[iduguphergrave]

7. That is also a very low couch .  (Was it always that low?)

I thought the same thing while watching the UStream, but think about it: that couch has seen a lot of action and I don't mean just sex; it's been puked on, passed out on by multiple people, and of course Faye used it as a bed for several months. On a related note, they should probably steam clean that thing soon O_o

[Soulsynger]

Hot damn.

With a couch that low, I keep half-expecting them to topple over and continue on the floor.

Also, I never thought the kitchen was that WIDE. °O

[VonKleist]

Hmm, I´d really like to know the secret of that 'secret wine' 

[StevenC]

in the newest comic 2056 in the second panel on the right does it look like there was something there that didn't load properly or is it just me?

People tend to call this a wall.


To the comic: whoooohooo go Marten and all that stuff. Also adorable Hanners and everything everyone else said already.

[Yarin]

People tend to call this a wall.

what is this wall you a speak of?

[DSL]

People tend to call this a wall.

what is this wall you a speak of?

A vertical structure designed to compartmentalize space, or to keep ceilings from crashing into floors. You may have noticed there was none in the foreground of the first panel of the preceding comic, making it necessary for Hanners to hold up the ceiling, with halfhearted assistance from Faye and Tai.

[Overkillengine]

2. Well now all five characters have drunk bubbles.  Though I have the feeling that more than just Tai have the possibility of winding up pantless in the morning...

Technically I think Padma counts as being pantless right now.

[Is it cold in here?]

Hannelore wasn't happy with Faye and Angus kissing on her couch.

[DSL]

Well, there was the breaking-and-entering aspect of it (glass houses, I know ...)

[cesariojpn]

Hmm, I´d really like to know the secret of that 'secret wine' 

Maybe she crushes the grapes by herself? Maybe it's a weird concoction of cheap dollar store grape juice and yeast fermented in some big retorts in her closet?

[Method of Madness]

It's not what you're thinking.  That already exists, it's called Soylent Wine.

[WAYF]

For comic #2056...
...
7. That is also a very low couch .  (Was it always that low?)

Actually, I think Jeph may just have forgotten to draw a line in. There's a patch on the couch next to Marten and Padma where light is being cast, but it seems oddly square. I'm willing to bet that the couch surface is meant to end there, after which it goes vertical.
Makes sense for the characters' leg positions as well.

It's one of these, I'd wager, considering Faye's love of hobo beer.

[Method of Madness]

What kind of beer is hobo beer?

[TinPenguin]

There's an element to Hanners' behaviour of 'living through people'. She's accepted that there are some things she'll never be able to do (even if she'd like to) because of her OCD, and so instead takes pleasure in her friends being able to do those things. And, since she's never been able to have these experiences first hand, she observes them with great curiosity.

[Throg]

TinPenguin, IsItColdInHere, Andy147: points taken.

Secret wine, you say? Bet it's Two-Buck Chuck.   

[DSL]

Secret wine

Many couches do not have a seam there, but just a smooth bend of the covering; I didn't find the depiction unnatural in any way.

The taste varies from person to person

Now that I have perused that comic again, it becomes apparent that Midnight Hobo is not a beer, but a bourbon.  Derp on my part there.

[jwhouk]

Secret wine

No. I can NOT afford time to follow ONE MORE webcomic.

(points to the pun jar) Pay up.

[Method of Madness]

@Yarin - You skipped a line, but well done all the less.

@Wimblesaurus - I took those for bourbons.

RED TEXT - @jwhouk, he was finishing my Futurama reference.

[jwhouk]

It's still a pun-ishable offense.

[akronnick]

If you guys keep this up there won't be room in the box...

[sluthy]

Comic's up.

Wow, that was quick. Will Faye return the favour? 

[crazdgamer]

Panel 4: Deactivated Pintsize.  Lolz.

I didn't even notice, hah! What if he suddenly woke up? His mind would explode with possibilities!

*/macnut looks at comic #2057, gets to the last panel, dances.*

Things are going a LOT better for Marten than I expected so far. Longs like the few posters who predicted Padma would indulge herself in a goodbye fling with Marten were dead on. Me, I didn't think Marten would get anywhere near that lucky.

[WAYF]

Cut to comic 1887, but with different characters

Wow, the poll actually called it!

And the punchline really makes me grin, in spite of the situation.

[DonInKansas]

Pintsize on the ground

Lookin' like a fool with your Pintsize on the ground

Dear Jeph:

Please release a line of DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG undergarments.

[haikupoet]

Officially jealous of Marten. Wish I could have a hot night with a sexy baker chick.

Maaaan... there's no reason for her not to. She likes Marten. She made that pretty clear, even when Marten didn't realize it. Why shouldn't she?

[Method of Madness]

Because it violates the laws of the QC universe.

[LeeC]

Elliot: Hey marten, how was you're night?

AWKWARD ZONE!

Not really, once she leaves we'll get a mopey, depressed Marten for who knows how many strips.  I'm not looking forward to that arc.

Also, sex on a first date?  Padma is the definition of slut.  I think if Marten got herpes that would be a good lesson for all the readers out there, a girl putting out on the first date is usually a girl putting out for everyone.

[cesariojpn]

Seriously, I thought "Damn, Jeph must've made an error with Pintsize's speech bubble.

...wow, epic fail.

Earth to stoutfiles: being a slut is not a bad thing. Sleeping together on the first date is not a bad thing. And the two are not necessarily related. Seriously, what the hell?
