So, has no one noticed that Melon is nekkid?

Wait, a character got longer hair in this webcomic? Are you sure it isn't a frigid day in the underworld, or a sign of impending apocalypse?

What? But they just put that dermal on! How can she have lost it already?
Seriously though, she was a skeleton a few strips back. Merely not wearing clothes is nothing.
Also, she still seems to be heterochromatic; I suppose eyes are a completely different job to skin…

Everyone noticed, nobody cared.
oddtail:
I'm disappointed at the resolution of Faye and Bubbles' conflict.
If an argument ended that way between, say, two friends of mine, I'd be very happy for them.
As a resolution within a story - that's kind of a nothingburger. It doesn't tell me much more about them and it isn't interesting. I'm not saying they *needed* to have a big fight - a positive ending to their fight could've been more interesting, or at least more elaborate. As-is, it is ground that has been thread before, and honestly doesn't move things forward.
There isn't even implication Fay (or Bubbles) is avoiding conflict out of fear rather than for healthier reasons (as her conversation with Hannelore briefly indicated). No, it reads like "they were angry at each other, now they apologised".
I honestly hoped it'd go in a newer direction. Show something about them, or have their fight resolved in a uniquely Bubbles (or uniquely Faye) way, or notice something deeper about their relationship, good or bad, or anything like that.
I still have some leftover hope this is not entirely over, but right now I'm not too optimistic. I hope the comic doesn't just jump to something else. Not everything in the comic has to have a deeper point, but this has felt a bit *too* superfluous to me.
