Enjoy!
-
Emily: Black Emperors need mice from fairies!
-
EMILY: "La la la la li Lu le loh!"
Or, you know ...
EMILY: "Trick or Treat!"
MARTEN (thinking): "Surely you mean 'April Fool!'"
-
"Hi honey! Dinner's almost ready!"
-
"Hi honey! Dinner's almost ready!"
It's twice as funny when you don't specify whose line that is.
-
Emily: "I'm ready for our wedding ceremony!"
-
EMILY: "La la la la li Lu le loh!"
-
Emily: "Did you know that there are 3173 species that use colorful feathers and food gifts to attract a mate?"
-
Emily: I have no idea what that bird was called, but it was BIG!
-
Emily: I have no idea what that bird was called, but it was BIG!
...and delicious! Anyway, look what was inside it!
-
Emily: "Now I'll have different shorts and top, but you should get a good idea what my Carnivale costume will look like for this year."
-
Emily: I have no idea what that bird was called, but it was BIG!
...and delicious! Anyway, look what was inside it!
... it yelled a lot, though.
-
Emily: do you want to see my first draft of our mating ritual?
Marten: I er, uh, sure?
Emily: Great! The first step is to shave all these little guys, then I'll...
[invites others to play along]

EMILY: "1,771,561. That's assuming they got in here three days ago ... "

NEW PANEL:

-
May: The end of the world is coming! We're going to be KAWAII-ized!
Hannelore: I don't see the problem with that.
-
May: "Seriously, Fighter Jet would be a fantastic name for a kid!"
Hannelore: "I have a friend named Fighter Jet, but he actually is a fighter jet."
-
May: "What are you doing here?"
Hanners: "I told earlier, this is a real deep cover assignment and if you blow my cover, before they get me the world will know about you, Pintsize and that weekend in Rio with Momo."
-
May: "What is the meaning to it all?"
Hanners: "42."
-
MAY: "Why didn't you tell me? You told me Darth Pintsize betrayed and murdered my father."
HANNELORE: "Your father... was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. He ceased to be Steve Austin and *became* Darth Pintsize. When that happened, the good man who was your father was destroyed. So what I told you was true... from a certain point of view."
MAY: "A certain point of view? Well, that's a load of dickbrooms."
HANNELORE: "May, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view. Steve was a good friend. When I first knew him, he was already a great pilot. But I was amazed how strongly the Air Force was with him. I took it upon myself to train him as a cyborg. I thought that I could instruct him just as well as Rudi and Oscar. I was wrong."
MAY: "There is still good in him."
HANNELORE: "He's more machine now than man; twisted and evil."
MAY: "... Watch it, meatbag."

Game, set and match to DSL. :laugh:
-
I think cesium133 won that round for timeliness, though.
-
I would be happy to split the prize. What was the prize, again?
-
Your reward is you get to end your day with breakfast at Milliway's!
Or something like that, fuck I dunno
-
In that case, I will start off with something that is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
Iced, of course.

Very good, sir. We have an excellent selection of ices. Will that be hydrogen ice, nitrogen ice, carbon dioxide ice, or methane ice?
-
Two parts hydrogen ice with one part oxygen, please.
-
That sounds explosive.
-
Quite uplifting actually.
-

Not a problem sir. I happen to have some premixed.

Hi. I'm new to the forums. Was it ever made clear if the basket full of mice panel was real or a fantasy sequence? I'm assuming fantasy, but, you know, it is Emily we're talking about.
BTW, I would *love* it if Marten got together with Emily. I think she's crazy adorable.
-
I imagine all will be revealed in the next few strips.
(not really this is Jeph we're talking about)
-
After the last two comics, I'm pretty sure we can put the basket of mice in the "fantasy" bucket. Otherwise Marten would be angsting about that instead of the smooch on the cheek.

Welcome New Person!
If you're so inclined head on over to our Hi! I'm New! (http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/board,6.0.html) forum and start a thread introducing yourself.

One of the charming things about the strip is that people completely ignore the bizarre (AI civil rights, cybernetic arms, supervillains, Pizza Girl) and obsess over the mundane. "Emily kissed me on the cheek! What? Oh, basket of mice? Yeah that happened -- AFTER SHE KISSED ME ON THE CHEEK!"
So, yeah, I think the basket of mice is fantasy, but....
-
Well, it's not like the mice were all wearing little hats.
-
Emily must never know about the little hats. :psyduck:
