I know, I was joking about that.

Kugai · « **Reply #51 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 12:46 »

Definitely went better than it could have done.

Even with the 'Get Smart' moment at the end.

I'm thinking Hanners won't be able to be able to wait until after an interns update for her debriefing session.

Is it cold in here? · « **Reply #53 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 13:45 »

Welome, new person!

I like it too. It's being funny and sweet and cringe-inducingly awkward. That's good writing.

Platypodes · « **Reply #54 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 13:45 »

Oh man, I laughed for a minute straight over this one.

Dale is so chill and unflappable about everything except the scary scary business of talking to girls. Barely fazed by getting bonked in the face by a door. Completely un-threatened by being called "pretty" instead of something more manly.

For these two, I'd say this was a successful date. No horrible misunderstandings, and they each managed to communicate their attraction to the other.

Zebediah · « **Reply #55 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 15:05 »

Dale is clearly a Firefly fan.

Quote from: Captain Tightpants

We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. And you know why? Because we are so... very... pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die. Huh? Look at that chiseled jaw, huh?

I don't like looking like a cockatoo.
It's just not a good look for me.

My hair does that in the mornings.

Dale might not, since he's Alliance and all.

Are… are you seriously asking why there would be no love lost between an Alliance partisan and an ex-Browncoat?

I got the joke.

~~GarandMarine~~ · « **Reply #62 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 18:51 »

By my standard usage of the term, the Browncoat would be the partisan...

Marigold and Hannelore probably switch apartments every few weeks or so.

Dale, you realize she can probably hear you through the door, right?

Marigold was probably too busy dancing to be listening through the door.

Is it possible to die from cute overload?

Because if so, I might need a little help...

Tulpa · « **Reply #66 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 19:31 »

The whole internet would have died from cat photos and videos years ago if that were possible.

Unless the QC world requires equilibrium. Then we'll be getting terrible news tomorrow.

Whaddaya think this is? Funky Winkerbean?

... of course, in Funky it's not about equilibrium. I think the artist genuinely hates his characters. And maybe his readers.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #71 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 20:02 »

And probably himself.

Tulpa · « **Reply #72 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 20:07 »

Well, the entire QC world could be nearly destroyed tomorrow and turned into a post apocalyptic wasteland where Marten becomes the leader of a band of people consisting of the major characters. Faye wearing a bandolier and holding a machine gun with a machete strapped to her waist comes to mind. Minor characters turned into mindless mutants that have to be fought off. They struggle with having to kill old friends. 100 page arc that ends in it being steve's dream. Then he wakes up and eats cereal.

...I want to see this happen now.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #73 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 20:34 »

No you don't. Although I wouldn't mind if he did that as an extra thank you to people who donated to his kickstarter.

RyanW1019 · « **Reply #74 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 20:38 »

Marigold's face in Panel 1 is just plain adorable.

Border Reiver · « **Reply #75 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 20:49 »

I'm impressed she didn't go into embarrassment overload.

We haven't gotten that far yet. She's stunned right now. Motion lines disappeared from the previous panel, but only her head has moved so moved so far. Probably another 5 seconds until she registers what just happened.

Sounds like a Faye-ish thing to do!

Now my question is, were Faye and Angus in the apartment the whole time listening in or did they just arrive?

~~GarandMarine~~ · « **Reply #79 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 21:09 »

I'm thinking they just arrived. I can see Angus clearing out to let Marigold have her little date.

It was a treat to see a happy Marigold.

Cute moment number three for this storyline.

Tulpa · « **Reply #82 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 21:28 »

I'm pretty sure they're standing by the main door. They probably watched a good portion of the dancing, though.

Did Dale get that nosebleed because of the typical anime trope of male arousal = nosebleeds, or because Marigold slammed the door literally on his face?

Jeph answered that one on twitter:

"is his nose bleeding cause she hit him in the face with the door or cause of uguu-anime-nosebleed?” yes

Method of Madness · « **Reply #85 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 22:55 »

So...he didn't. And that's fine.

Delator · « **Reply #86 on:** 28 Oct 2013, 23:12 »

Hooray, new avatar!!

Also, Dale is still bleeding.

How do you clap a booty?

Skewbrow · « **Reply #90 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 03:10 »

The ever useful urban dictionary suggests a meaning of clap that is fitting (scroll down to explanation number six, please). I am not sure I want to have a mental image of this taking place. Pintsize hitting the fifth harmonic was more than enough of that.

By the main door might mean we hear about them talking with Dale or seeing him having the nosebleed and wanting answers...unless she was dancing for a while which makes it even more adorable

Ugh, that's what I was afraid it might mean...

Tulpa · « **Reply #94 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 13:40 »

It seems like Marigold is the danciest character. I count her dancing in 5 strips and Angus in 4. Also, this is the first time Marigold has danced without Angus joining in or her joining in with Angus. (You know, based on my novice level archive diving)

Welu · « **Reply #95 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 14:34 »

Just imagine how dancey her booty dance would be.

Schmee · « **Reply #96 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 20:48 »

Hmm. Today's comic explains so much, and yet so little.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #97 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 20:51 »

I'm confused, why are Dora and Tai looking at that? And is Dale also looking at that? What a strange comic.

I'm also confused about why we have 2565 and 2567 but no 2566.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #99 on:** 29 Oct 2013, 20:58 »

How'd you even know to check? Now I've seen Friday's comic, but not Thursday's. I guess if you want to talk about it use spoiler tags.
