But the other may be pining for the old days when I was stricter...

Fair enough; although my attempt to take a back seat hasn't shown as much as I expected, I do spend less time checking the forum than I used to, so I'm more likely to miss things.

Filler Arc sounds wrong. My guess is focusing away from the banger that was the Fay and Bubbles thing. Boring stuff happens, life goes on. Marten has to catch up to Faye, as far as occurrences are concerned. Maybe we see Penny again, maybe even Raven.

TheEvilDog:
This year we've had two major stories that shook the status quo of the comic.

They were also quite long compared to other arcs and felt drawn out towards the end. What seems to be happening here is Jeph is trying to get back into shorter arcs, going for more character development in a shorter time frame. Or he's throwing out drama for shits and giggles, who knows.

--- Quote from: SmilingCat on 23 Aug 2018, 00:53 ---I feel like people are attaching more gloom to two imperfect people making mistakes and then talking them out like adults than they should.

--- End quote ---

"Talking them out like adults" doesn't mean shitting all over one person for making a non-mistake because you're not under any circumstances allowed to acknowledge that the other person is being a dick. That's more what you call "being in an unhealthy relationship that should end".

Tell you what: We'll talk about that when it happens, deal?

Edit: If you feel like talking about unhealthy/abusive relationships in general, independent of the comic, you could also create a thread in the Dicuss!-, or Relate - subfora (Emphasis on 'could' - no mandatory involved). No need to wait until you have a postcount in the x*hundreds, they've been FFA for nigh-on a decade now.
