"They are TOTALLY dating!"
"We are NOT!"
"Hey, is BUBBLES BLUSHING?!"
"I am not!" the blushing Bubbles lied.

Exactly. Amanda will be this chapter's Tilly. She's an outsider who will be the catalyst for the next stage of Bubbles' and Faye's relationship.
Penquin47:
I like Evie.
"That's me. I'm Evie." For some reason it just made me laugh.
OldGoat:
Yep, they're an item alright.

--- Quote from: A Duck on 07 Jan 2018, 21:12 ---Oh god, this thing about self employment hits WAY too close to home, specially the comment at the bottom of the comic.

Right!? I hate it when people say, "O, you work from home, can't you do "X, Y, Z" for me?" or "I envy you, you can take off whenever you want."
Well, shit, sure I can. That is, if I don't want to meet my deadlines, if I want to lose the trust of my clients, and if I never want to eat, again. WHY NOT!?!
Ok, that last one may be hyperbole since developers are always in demand but if you want to stay your own boss, then, no matter your skillset, you will only be as good as your word. And your word = your work. And, as an independent, good work will always take a significant percentage of your time.
BenRG:
Ah, the wonders of someone who is still in full-time education and has no conception of how life actually works! I'm not criticising Amanda here; she likely really does have no reason to know just how difficult it is being self-employed.
Evie is an interesting one isn't she? When you're creating a SO for an existing character, the temptation is to make them basically something one-dimensional that makes the established character look good. What is different here is that I suspect Evie is the smart one and Amanda is the adornment who possibly needs help not to get overwhelmed by the world; this is not the normal thing you see in fiction.
Now, am I the only one who thinks that Jeph had been staring at his pile of bills and his very long 'to do' list when he wrote this comic? :-P
