As long as Emily doesn't join a snake-handling church, she'll probably be okay.

The more important question is: Did she actuall smooch him or just kinda held her face next to his face while saying "smooch"?

Seriously, I cannot tell :psyduck:

Well, Marten didn't stumble into gibbering incoherence, so there is that.

Unless he is so lost for words that even "huh buh duh wha?" have failed him.

For the same reasons, one might feel inclined to suggest "Marten Azumanga Daioh" (shortened "MAD") as a ship name.

(mod) While the posts so far have been okay in my eyes, I want to remind everyone that the author of the comic - and owner of this forum - is generally not comfortable with shipping, particularly if it goes into creepy territory.  Basically, before posting, ask yourself "Would Jeph want to bleach his eyes or brain because of what my post does to his characters", and if the answer is "no", you should be okay.(/mod)

Marten's an attractive dude (according to Cosette and Dora, at least). Emily's right in saying he's pretty nice, too.

Badgers? We ain't got no Badgers. We don't need no steenking badgers...
Nice freshly scented ones are fine though.

And on other matters, I thought Emily's action was entirely appropriate. Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but such chivalry fully deserves a chaste kiss on the cheek.

And shouldn't the ship be Marily?
