He's allowed now, you can wear casual in your home.

I was GOING to say something about how his-room-where-pants-are is right there (and thus no need to walk by), and was going to bring up this comic ... but I got distracted by the fact that in between then and now the apartment wall seems to have somehow shrunk in on itself by a good four feet, losing the Mogwai poster in the process.

I... get distracted by things.

Is it bad I want a map to Faye and Marten's flat now? Just to get a sense of where everything is.

I normally don't like to critique the artwork, but I just don't like the way Faye is sitting. Having a body type similar to hers...well, girls like us don't pull our knees to our chests very often like that because it is a bit difficult to get your arms around everything. Just my two cents...

As someone of Faye's body type, I had to try sitting like that.  :lol: For me getting my arms around everything was no problem but you'd have to do it with a back to the chair. Sitting up in bed I felt like I was going to pull myself over.

On Elliot's dialogue yesterday, I thought the gist of the conversation was grand. It was Elliot's mini-speech in the last panel that sounded sort of forced to me. Like no one would say it naturally, outside of some kind of self-improvement seminar.

TinPenguin:
I'm really not getting this "soapbox" vibe everyone else is feeling. I saw it as a simple exit retort. It also shows us something about Elliot's character and method.

As for the "out of character" nature of his congratulation, I don't think it is at all. When you've been hopelessly pining after someone for a long time, getting a sudden reality check can snap you out of it very quickly. A few years ago now, there was a girl I'd been pining after for a couple of years. I never told anyone. One day, I was talking to her, and I just realised "this is never gonna happen". And I wouldn't say I was over it just like that, but I very quickly came to terms with the fact and moved on.

Elliot is a well-meaning bloke, certainly not a confrontational type. I can believe that he would be genuinely happy for Marten, without necessarily being completely over Padma. But he's accepted it won't happen, and if anybody's gotta be with her, he knows Marten isn't a bad guy.

Knock yourself out.
