--- Quote from: BenRG on 02 Mar 2017, 01:35 ---I think that the problem here is that Hannelore didn't communicate clearly enough to Dora what she found and why Dora might care whether Hannelore gave it as a gift to her friend.

"Hey Dora, I found this ugly old clock in the cellar, I wondered if my friend Brun might like it."
"Yeah, whatever."
Tawdry Quirks:
As great as the miscommunication about the clock is, I think the part that amuses me most about this strip is the waiver to visit the basement. Or specifically that there's enough of a demand to visit the basement that they even need to have a waiver pre-drafted.

In this case, a valuable industrial-era antique that a collector almost certainly would want to bid for on eBay.

You're assuming that Hannelore knew there was something more special about the clock than "this is an old clock and I have a friend who is interested in clocks". You can't communicate what you don't know.

--- Quote from: Zebediah on 01 Mar 2017, 05:19 ---So Tortura just showed up unannounced in Steve's kitchen this morning. Didn't even bother to knock, because she didn't come in through the door anyway. Steve is completely unfazed by this because he knows how Tortura rolls.

I can see this setting up a Tortura vs. Creepybot scene.
"How did you get in here?"
"How did YOU get in here!?"
--- End quote ---
NEXT UP: Tortura signs up for companion AI because she doesn't want kids, ends up with Mercedes. Hilarity ensues.

That's true but it's an assumption that I feel safe in making. To me, in panel 5, Hannelore isn't saying: "Well, I didn't know", she's saying: "Maybe you should be more aware of what's down there!"
