Slim-Jims are ok occasionally.  I prefer meat-jerky.   Specifically fish or turkey if I can find it.   Bison is ok,  Elk is good but hard to find.

To be fair to her, punching Pintsize upon meeting him is an entirely reasonable response. You just have to wear a gauntlet when you do it.

Also, the Fibonacci sequence is perfect for him because he FIBS a lot.

For comic #2340...

1. Marigold looks very "rowr-y" in panel #1

2. "Tannelore" continues on.  Wonder how long Jeph will have that bit last?

3. Emily's "donk" face in panel #3 amused and entertained me.

4. Emily's teary face in panel #4 is cute and amusing too.

5. Marten certainly has his fill of non-sequitur friends these days.

Or is Marigold still thinking of her as a child?  Perhaps the new chassis hasn't sunk into her habitual conversation yet.

Emily dun broke Pintsize but good. Probably needs her hand x-rayed too.

The question is, what lesson will she learn from this?

1) Don't hit Pintsize on the head anymore

2) Wear hand protection when hitting Pintsize on the head

Or is she such a cloudcuckoolander that she'll forget this whole experience and do it again later?

3a. She will forget entirely only to suddenly remember, milliseconds from impact, stop and pull a mail gauntlet from her purse, saying "now I remember why I keep this in there!"
Then kiss Pitsize on the forehead and skip off, entirely forgetting to continue hitting him.

Maybe Pintsize was could see it coming from Faye and Marigold (after all, they were provoked), but he hadn't really even got started with Emily when she cranked out the surprise hammer fist.

Very Scott Pilgrim-ish touch there, too. 

Or, maybe Marigold *told* Emily about the "woob woob" incident, and she was looking for an excuse for some payback.

Pintsize was garbled after Faye tossed him against the wall after he goatse'd Veronica. One suspects the damage is cumulative, even if he appears to recover. D'you suppose this damage will revert him to his little perverted self?

Wait, why did she do negative 9999 damage? Wouldn't that have healed Pintsize? Ever since QC turned into a computer game I've lost track of logic. oO


Also... Hanner's tan is confusing me.

1) She has it.
b) She hasn't it.
iii) She has it again.

Oh but in Final Fantasy, damage and healing are shown as white numbers and green numbers respectively. So white numbers with a negative sign in front would be negative damage.
