WCDT: 2246-2250 (August 6-10 2012) Weekly Comic Discussion Thread
jwhouk:
My "problem" was that I got forced to work OT Sunday morning, thus couldn't get to a computer and get a proper poll/thread together.
And as soon as I saw today's comic, I thought three things:
1. "Well, at least my record of not having one of the WCDT's locked will remain intact."
2. "And the forums exploded in three, two, one..."
3. "This WCDT will probably hit 10 pages by Tuesday."

I predict that unless Jeph pulls an "all a dream", they *will* explode by Friday.
I am also kinda lukewarm on the pairing. Can anyone with archive-fu tell me whether this is the first woman Dora actually dates? Because I have something like that in the back of my mind. If yes, it could be argued she is in there for the novelty.
Also, does anyone else think the kiss scene looks kinda weird? I dunno, it feels like something about their posture is off.
Tomorrow's comic: Dora and Tai come back in. Faye has the "congratulations" banner up (the one that Marten had when Faye slept with Angus.)
I also predict Pintsize will get a hold of pictures of Dora and Tai by Friday, badly photoshop them to something, uh, appropriate to his character and show them to Marten.

I'm pretty sure Tai would be Dora's first female partner we've seen on screen on the comic. (Marten, Jim, am I missing anyone?) She kind of was flirty with Faye's sister way back when QC was in the 160s or 170s, but that never got anything close to more than slight flirting.
Also, I'm curious to see who initiated the kiss, whether it was Dora first (in which case my gut reading would be more of a pitying, "Why not?" kiss) or Tai (just poured my heart out., so let me keep taking the initiative), or a simultaneous draw-in in which case I'll start barfing romantic butterflies.
Boxilar:
Had to work OT Sunday nightand while I could see the forums, they wouldn't let me log in from my phone. Most of what I wanted to say has already been said. Leading up to this, I thought the direct aproach might lead to this, but I still kind of dread the aftermath. I was suprised at my own reaction, in that, to me, it just didn't feel quite right. I think LoliBot nailed why. Dora and Tai have always had a Big Sister/Little Sister vibe going, at least from Dora's side of things. At the same time, it has been pointed out that, to our knowledge, Dora has never actually tried a relationship with a girl before. Tai has never made her atraction to Dora a secret, and Dora is apparently at a place in her life where she wants to try something new. I think if things go south, Dora will weather it fairly well. She has her business and her freinds and we've seen her remain mostly funtional in the immediate aftermath of The Breakup.
I worry about Tai. She has a history of recreational drug use and if things go pear shaped in a bad way, I could see her sliding off a slippery slope like Steve did.
Even still, I guess, color me cautiously optimistic?
On a related note, does anyone want to get a pool together on how many days it will be before a character's change in relationship status prompts someone to write out a "I'm never reading this comic again!" rant?

Womenfolk... nah. But I'd say a wimp! By the way, the poll should be updated to: What do you think mondays comic will lead to?
My guess: Explosions, heat, destruction and grief. They'd make an excellent couple of FBs, but who knows what groundshaking character evolvement those 20 somethings go through in the next couple of months.
P.S. maybe Jeph wanted a excuse to draw more kissing girls!
