QC: Behind the Scenes
WAYF:
... I didn't think you meant that literally. :P

Tai: "I kept bugging Jeph about doing a GLBT arc - ESPECIALLY with Dora - but he always made excuses that he 'couldn't get it past the production staff.' So when he finally decides he's going to do it, he puts it right before SDCC." <sighs> "I get the most amount of character development over the last few weeks with the librarian stuff, and now he's gonna..." <off-screen mumbling> "What? Oh. I didn't know that scene hadn't appeared yet. Crap. Well." <looks into the camera> "At least people do know I have a serious side, now."
Dora: "I think there are times that Tai forgets that not everyone in the cast is GLBT. Like me, for example. Happily married to Sven." <looks at the camera> "How ya like THEM apples, Anderson Cooper?"
Hannelore: "What she doesn't know is that I helped Jeph with a bit of her monologue when she was talking to Marten on that walk to the restaurant." <looks evilly into the camera> "YOU guess which part."
Faye: "Some of the bitchiness we play as the CoD Baristas is 100% real. Heck, I did the whole smashed banana thing because I knew it would set Hanners off. She hasn't said a WORD to me since she took her summer Convention hiatus."
Dora: "Oh, she's 100% right. We get so catty with our comments and lines on the set, sometimes Jeph looks at us like we're crazy."
WAYF:
JEPH:
You know, I give the forums a lot of flak for shipping, overthinking my story arcs, telling me how I should write them, finding people to blame during arguments, saying that this and this action is indicative of Nice Guy behaviour, maintaining this belief that all of Marten's actions somehow link back to a desire to hook up with Faye even when he explicitly monologued his approval for her and Angus's relationship, hating certain characters for the wrong reasons, denouncing the punchline of any given "dramatic" installment as unnecessary and cheap when delivering punchlines is my job, drawing my characters naked, writing fanfiction...
You know, there was supposed to be a "but" in there, but now that I think about it, that's a very compelling argument. Screw you, forums.
Anyway, I guess the point I was trying to make was that there are worse people out there, bizarre as that may seem. Did you know that The Vigilant Citizen has accused me of having ties to both the Illuminati and Satanists (who are apparently forming some kind of New World Order together?) no fewer than THREE times? I think my favourite one, if you can call if a favourite, was the first one, very early on, when all the characters still had what The Vigilant Citizen called "triangular" faces. And if you've ever seen a conspiracy theorist at work, you know that if there's one thing they can't stand to see, it's triangles. Apparently if you turn Marten upside-down in one of the comics, his chin makes the perfect base for that, you know, pyramid thing with the All-Seeing Eye at the top. Which is ridiculous of course. The guy who plays Marten is exactly as weedy as his character. Can't do a hand-stand to save his life.

TAI: Okay, I'll fess up: all of the tattoos? They're fake. I can't stand them. Tried getting ink done once - just the letter "T" on my shoulder. Discovered that I was allergic to the ink they use. Passed out from the constant needle pressure, too.
It's funny, because I really do have the piercings you see in the strip. (pause) Yes, including that one from way back when. And I never had a problem with any of those. Different procedures, I guess.
Truth is, Jeph sometimes doesn't remind me to stick the tats on when I'm on set, and nobody notices until after the fact. I've joked about getting a designated "tattoo sticker-onner" for the production crew, but Jeph's already short-staffed as it is.
DORA: He never forgets about my flame tattoo, though. Of course, that's because mine's real.
JEPH: Yeah, as real as it can be for a CARTOON CHARACTER.
(EDIT)
DORA and TAI: Speak for yourself, MEATBAG!
cesium133:
FAYE: That scene with Marten and Pintsize? Completely unplanned. I came into the room and happened to see that, so I took a picture and sent it to Dora. Dora apparently sent it to Dave Willis, and he really ran with it.
PINTSIZE: All I was trying to do was play a nice game of chess, and that jerk took me to Anthrogeddon, modded me into a butt, and then fucked me! Unbelievable!
HANNELORE: You deserved everything you got for shitting on us!
PINTSIZE: I'm sorry, I've never been a butt before, so I didn't know how to control it!
FAYE: You never did pay us back for the damages to the couch from that spaghetti sauce...
