That was well-played.

Well. We've done it. We've hit 15. As it's Saturday, we may well hit 20 before we're done.

As for the poll, the various variants of Mistake is missing one of its own: Mistake (Both of them.) Though, given how close Claire seems to just purring, I might suggest option: Cat

um, I think the goal of the OP was for this to reach page 15?
Anyways, let's get back to talking about how adorable Claire has been this week.

Super adorable.  Adorable to absurd, possibly dangerous levels.

OK, somebody needs to do the WCT/Poll for next week as I'm fresh outta ideas

At least I'm honest about it!!!

I might be able to do it, but work has been very fickle as of late.
May I?

Well, I'd say because page 15 makes it the third longest Comic Discussion thread in the forum. (The other two were during the Break-Up and When Marten Got Drunk And Despised His Role As The Nice Guy).

But generally speaking, 15 pages has become something of a running gag on the forum. Any time there's a potentially explosive storyline ongoing, someone usually declares "15 pages by Wednesday/Thursday". Never happens but hey, it's fun.

How many options does the poll need?  We can just all throw out ideas til we find the best ones.  I suggest Steve Week: All Steve, All the Time.

I just realized that I have no idea what Steve's last name is.   :psyduck:

Steve has no last name. The US Department of Kicking Your Ass took it from him when he became an agent, and gave him a number instead. And they won't even tell him what the number is.

He has to get through that year's supply of cereal somehow. Just... please no Steve Year, however much more adequately it would deal with the absurd surplus.

But Claire's blushies are psychic.  They foretell that something either amazing or depressing will happen soon.

Same. It's a good place to be, and it'll still be all kinds of adorable, and there's still room for wacky hijinks as Faye would likely read more into it. My disappointment would come if Marten has an attack of the awkward after being so at ease these past two strips... and we all know that's very likely.

The last news story I heard about Australian police was how at least two detectives had been charged with the murder of a student and had been involved with a major criminal and the drugs trade, so I'm wondering if that's what ZoeB is referring to.
They were "business associates" of the highly transphobic ex-cop giving me grief, yes. It wasn't so much him I was worried about, it was them. The more I found out about his "business partners", the more concerned for my family I became. However, the threat has receded.

I am now horrified at the full-throttle ass-holeishness of my initial "Selective censorship" post above. I appreciate being able to continue the conversation in a forum dedicated solely to it.

*slinks away*

If that's the worst thing you ever do, you're doing far better than me! Don't worry about it. The mods are pretty darned good, and don't take offence at innocent mistakes.

I'm sure there's an exception for literal ships, so long as they follow the law of the sea. (There is a further exception for pirate ships, who need not follow any law... but succumb quickly to scurvy.)
