Tarnum:
I can see Dora talking about a car accident, forgetting about Faye's history for a moment. But I would expect Faye to have a moment of thinking "WTF did you just say?" before realizing she meant nothing by it. It kinda seems Jeph forgot about Faye's past.

Perhaps. But then again, if you remember Dora's parents, Tai's use will probably register as "normal" to her (Dora), and even if it is an issue will just be dismissed.
Then again, I figure that Tai's young, and will probably grow out of it.
Tova:
Maybe.
This is all prompted by a new comic, in case anyone else was wondering.
shanejayell:
On the plus side, I think Faye and Bubbles will match up well in abstaining from drugs.
Unless you count Bubbles's tea sniffing.
BenRG:
Dora's coffee mug is interesting, isn't it! I wonder if the picture was inspired by her first sight of Mieville one morning when he was hungry and she'd been lying in?
Jeph's notes on today's strip is also interesting. It's unusual for any character except Marten to reflect his anxieties (Hannelore is usually deliberately exaggerated to absurdity as a kind of vaccine for his mind, IMO). However, here we have Faye reflecting his concerns about addiction and the harm that chemical habits can cause. We'll see about Tai. I think that it is most like a sort of a reflex habit thing she does whether or not she even wants to at this point.
Off topic, Jeph is working on a new regular strip: Shelter in Place. I won't reveal too much as it's a Patreon exclusive at the moment and I consider that to be a kind of information embargo. However, I think that I feel safe reposting his project summary in his announcement post:
--- Quote ---You may have noticed I haven't been putting up bonus comics the past couple months- I've been working on something a little different instead. It feels kind of weird to be writing QC these days, since it exists in its own world where there's not a pandemic, and I felt the need to write something a little more grounded in OUR reality. That's what this comic is about!

Nothing seems set in stone at the moment; I don't even know if SiP is even more than 'yellow light - let's think about this' at the moment.
