that happened faster than I thought it would, but ok ...
It gave me an added measure of satisfaction to see Sven being jerked forward by the shirt. Dominated men amuse me (if they were formerly heartless womanizers -- Marten being dominated is not so fun).

Worst case scenario: Sven actually doesn't like her that way.

No, worst case scenario: they have sex.

No and no: Worst case scenario: Monday's strip jumps to CoD the next day, and the Faye/Sven kiss isn't mentioned again, ever.

I don't think Jeph's actually that mean to his readers, but the option is there.

Did anyone else notice in the last two panels that Faye pulling the shirt makes Sven look... um, I don't know... like female, with the long hair and all...? Look again.

What subtle Freudian symbolism is this? ...?

Long time reader, first post.
This latest comic just Made me register!

First reaction - SQEEEEE!!!!!
Second reaction - DOUBLE SQEEEE!!!
And then I started to get thoughtful about it.

I think the kiss certainly was a 'I'm pushing my boundries' and her body language in the second to last panel certainly shows that.
Some people here were talking about how she was all sweet and innocent beforehand, but I think she was being nice, until he said the 'pushing your boundries' comment and then she thought 'what the heck!' and did it.
*edit* - Either that or she was trying to sneak up on Sven, I mean, you would hide the knife behind your back if you were going to stab someone, you wouldn't parade it around, would you?

Worst case scenario - Faye is 'cured' and they all live happily ever after with lotsa ponies and unicorns in a big castle for ever and ever!! And they have lotsa sex and babies!
I'm sorry that is just unrealistic AND it makes me gag. Thank god April's Fools isn't nearby...

I think Faye has far too many issues for this to be a quick fix, but there still is the little part of me, that wants her to be happy, but I just know this won't be the case.
I don't really know what Monday's strip will be like, I don't think they will keep it a secret. Why keep it a secret when Jeph could just milk all the tension and drama it would bring!
*is excited for Monday's comic!*

I saw this coming from the start of the karaoke arc, but I assumed Jeph would cop-out. I'm impressed that he actually furthered the progression of Faye's character, but I reckon he's gona have her think it was a mistake and things'll be back to square one. If Jeph sees this through properly (as in he doesn't just have them break up before Faye develops as a character), then I'll be extremely impressed.

Alright here are my theories on the future with this whole faye & sven thing
a) It is going to lead to them dating thusly making the sexual tension between faye and marten even more akward
b) Another 50 pages about fayes issues
c) Faye is just fucking arounds and it means nothing
d) Jealousy build up
and e) (the least likely) massive orgy

Did anyone forget about Raven, how she was pushing to get with him....I know she's dating that hobo, but she does tend to go through boyfriends like an artist goes through sketchbooks.

PassiveTheory · « **Reply #216 on:** 18 Feb 2008, 01:22 »

Well damn... Part of me wants to be happy, but part of me was also expecting something more dramatic. Maybe some more build up.

But random FayeSvensex is pretty decent.

Naoko · « **Reply #217 on:** 18 Feb 2008, 01:48 »

Okay, I'm really starting to hope and pray that this is Faye's way of getting back at Dora.

On a lighter note, this comic is sadly pushing me farther and farther away. It used to be my favourite, way back when. Now, all it's doing is making me sad and kind of pissed off. Like the pissed off you get after you get over Aeris' death, and think, "WHAT THE HELL, SQUARESOFT?!" or when your favourite game company decides to randomly switch from being exclusive to one console to being exclusive to another. Geh.

DesolateDecember · « **Reply #218 on:** 18 Feb 2008, 06:29 »

I am quite excited over this. I defiantly cant wait to see how this is gonna all pan out. I think that any direction that it goes, it'll keep me reading. What i don't quite understand is all the mellow drama on the boards about "QC is ruined forever!" "I now hate QC for this, I'm never going to read it again" and things of that nature. Judging the average interests of the majority of people who watch movies,tv, and read comics not based on superheroes... this is keeping with the interests of that basic demographic. Jeph knows who will like his comic, and knows who wont. But obviously dose not care if you like it or not. If you personally believe that QC is ruined over this, then just go find something else in the vastness of the internet, instead of criticizing someone else's work. Oh another idea, if you don't like the way the plot has panned out, then go write your own comic.

So, I am so excessively excited about this part of the plot. I knew it from the start, and I don't care what anybody says. It's amazing!
Although, I don't want to get over-excited about this cause it could just be like a one time thing. Cause you know, what would the comic be without bitter-Faye? Well, hoping everything goes well with the comic. And hoping that Faye won'T go soft or anything.
P.S. I'm starting to miss Marten.

hi...i've been reading the comic for a long time and never posted here, but i felt the need to say one thing....

don't you guys think that when faye goes into CoD, she should wear the "everything is ruined" t-shirt? or is that just me?

I do think Faye and Sven will be good for each other, even if the relationship doesn't last (Which I doubt it will). He needs someone who won't put up with any crap, and vice versa. But more than anything else I'm looking forward to the havoc which will be wreaked when Dora finds out

If you think about it, Sven is the only character Faye would have had sex with in QC.

She has abandonment issues, emotional problems that stem from a fear that if she grows close to someone that they'll abandon her. She pushed her boundaries and sexed up the smarmasaur precisely because she doesn't feel close enough to Sven to feel hurt when/if he "abandons" her.

I agree that QC's gotten a trifle soapy, and that some of us are reacting at least a little like every soap-addicted housewife that ever tuned in to watch The Young and the Should Be Long Dead from STDs.

But I've yet to see a stupid, moon-mouthed, extended take drawn in QC.

What?! I totally, wholeheartedly disagree with that! There is noo way QC had gotten the least bit soapy! How?! Just tell me how!
I don't know if some of you have failed to notice that Jeph totally made that comic funny as hell! I laughed my ass off. He could have totally made it corny and all but lucky for us we didn't have to put up with awkward cheesy shit. So, my props to Jeph for making me laugh my ass off when he didn't have to.

I guess you guys are right. But you have to admit it's not a typical "I-love-you-so-much-lets-have-sex-but-oh-wait-you're-my-brother?!?" soapy.

I like the "I defiantly can't wait" part.

I'll probably keep reading, but I find it kind of depressing the way that things are turning out. I have a lot of other webcomics to read, as well, and it used to be "OH MY GOD QC," but now it's "oh, QC, the plot got weird, but OH MY GOD CTRL+ALT+DEL IS AWESOME." It makes me kind of sad that I'm not as into QC anymore.

And I know that Jeph doesn't care what we think. I don't care what he thinks, either. It's interesting, but interesting in a "what the fuck is going on here" sort of way. He's not a bad writer, and I really don't want to bash him or anything, but... I just really hope he has a good twist/storyline coming from this. It's not like they can just get together, and it's not like they can just be "okay ignoring this it didn't happen hahahahhhh." He's got a chance to do something good with this, or he has a chance to turn it into an even deeper "what the fuck is going on here." It's his story, but I just hope it doesn't turn into something really silly. (Hey, I think the whole kiss-and-sex thing was silly, but maybe he has something good coming from it. I don't know yet.)

And yeah, I have other things in the vastness of the internet. There are hundreds of webcomics out there. I just happened to like this one a lot, too.

As for writing my own comic, I do love to write, but I think I'd rather write storylines for a video game company.

Oh no, no, no. 'Soapy' isn't necessarily bad. The kind you're talking about in your German-style noun is, but, to me, soaps kept drama alive when in primetime everybody wanted to watch Gilligan in his next idiocy. The same elements that people laud Shakespeare for including in his work are present in the daytimes. The problem, really, is that some Daytimes have been running for forty years or more, and so we tend to notice repetition after a bit. The first time "I-love-you-so-much-lets-have-sex-but-oh-wait-you're-my-brother" happened, it was dramatic: it's the tenth or so time it’s used, in pretty much exactly the same way, or with only a far-fetched premise to make it 'different,' that cheapens it.

Given the timeflow in QC, it may take us forty years to get through about five, so no worries on that sort of thing.

Whats really pissing me off is that everyone seems to be expecting Sven to step backward in his character development, rather then possibly be able to change himself, and actually be something GOOD for Fae. Incase anyone's not noticed, one of the major themes of QC is overcoming issues and learning to live your life, be yourself, and have fun with it. Sven by this point officialy qualifies as a main character. Fck, if Hanners can come as far as she says, why can't Svenn?

Faye: Issues of self confidence.
Sven: Issues with realisticaly being reliable and dependable.

The two both have major personality issues, but they also seem to present each other with support. Fae is probably the first female that Sven has ever interracted with without 100% intent on screwing an dumping her. Sven boasts far more self confidence, and that can be a good thing to rub off on Fae, unlike Marten. I love Marten, but he's too passive and soft to really show Fae a good example of how to gain self confidence in my view.

I'm 100% behind this new turn, and I hope it becomes an education experience for the two characters, and continues to uphold QC's traditional style of character development.
