Man... a whole bunch of wet towels in here. It was a sweet little smooch! Haven't you people ever been in love? Sheesh!

I remember the days of being in love! I could so see myself acting like Marten when I first dating my ex ten years ago.  Good times, good time. Oh to be young and in love again....

[ReindeerFlotilla]

Not to mention that it's typical Martin troll behavior. I mean, they hadn't gone through the doors, yet. If Claire is really upset about it, she'll need to talk about it with him, but she'll also need to understand that part of a relationship is learning to accept your partner for who they are.

That goes both ways. Marten has to adjust for Claire as well.

I'd settle for either one.

True, but at the same time I find myself reminded of the time Claire bolted like a little red jackrabbit (?!) when she needed a dress for Marten's dad's wedding.  I wonder what's really driving the whole professionalism bit.

[ReindeerFlotilla]

She's never done this sort of thing before. Marten is her first romantic partner, ever.

[NemoX]

long link, ftfy

I lol'd. Roomate looked funny at me. Good job

[Ustrello]

No need for ad hominem attacks, now.

You think that is an ad hominem? Good lord

[valkygrrl]

One more thought before the new comic goes up.

Hold it, hold it. What is this? Are you trying to trick me? And- where's the sports? ...Is this a kissing book??

[MooskiNet]

I don't suppose I could convince you I recognized that quote without Googling it, but in either case I'd love to know the significance.  Marten doesn't strike me as a Dread Pirate Roberts type.

[Kugai]

Neither did Wesley

[MooskiNet]

You seem a decent fellow, I hate to kill you.

[PLGRN8R]

Okay, so THIS strip here, in panel 2

http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2137

Am I the ONLY ONE seeing potential relatives of Emily, Gabby, and Claire in that panel?

[valkygrrl]

It could be the voice of the reader who want more robots... Or just an attempt to get people to chuckle... Or I wanted to imagine them dressed as Wesley and Buttercup (dressing montage!)... Or--and this is most likely--something that killed a minute in between F5 presses.

Honestly? The black girl on that panel has a face I've only seen Cosette do - that of utter indiference mixed with contempt. Faye would be proud, even if she didn't know what the fuck they were talking about.

[NemoX]

is it f5 time already?

[MooskiNet]

Dude, I've already got carpal tunnel from the last ten minutes alone.

[Rghfrgl]

 Not recognizing a princess bride quote is signs I need to rewatch princess bride.

Although in this case it wouldn't help because I'd skip over the fred savage/columbo parts.

That big guy in panel 3... I finally found my QC avatar/look-a-like-if-I-still-had-head-hair!

welp, set a perpetual motion bird to press it for me, Homer Simpson style

[Rghfrgl]

F5ing isn't bad when there's already something on there to squee at.

O-oh gosh~

I'll just leave this here:

Redhead Sven is just creepy. 

[NemoX]

oh cooooomic! where art thou?

[bhtooefr]

It's up, now just for caches to update...

Edit: Marten, time to call Dora, she needs to find Tai's reset button.

[Zebediah]

Yeah, Jeph's been reading the forum.

Oh, I'm pretty sure she already knows where it is...

I think Tai's mentally writing more fan fiction... Or recapping the slash fics about them she's already written.

[Gladstone]

Marten: I know it's not quite kosher, but we can totally keep things professional while at work.

Claire: And I just joined the groundskeeping services part-time, so "work" now includes the entire college.

Marten: Dammit!

[Rghfrgl]

Tomorrow mirrors this strip with Claire talking to Emily, but instead of a dumb grin it's 4 panels of sadness.

Or maybe thurdsay, because if the last few weeks are a indication wed is robot hijinks.

[NemoX]

I know why tai could act like this but....she already knew of it so why the first impression squee? unless it still going from the day before lol

[PLGRN8R]

Tai: The Forum's Voice

[Gladstone]

Tomorrow mirrors this strip with Claire talking to Emily, but instead of a dumb grin it's 4 panels of sadness.

Or, as someone else suggested here a week or two ago (and please don't ask me to dig through several dozen comment pages), Claire will walk up to Emily and say "One," then walk away, leaving Emily looking just as happy as Tai.  Eventual sadness optional.  I still think Emily smooching Marten was completely innocent and without romance, but I could be wrong.

That's the vibe I got, too.

[Half Empty Coffee Cup]

I think we can safely guess which of Tai's slashfics were her favorite.

[Rincewind]

I thought Tai was going to squeee-splode there for a minute. 

[NemoX]

I thought Tai was going to squeee-splode there for a minute.

nah, that's tomorrow or Wednesday, when after saying she's ok with them two, Marten steals another kiss and Tai's head explodes into confetti from the sheer amount of squee

[GarandMarine]

I find your lack of squeee disturbing.

[Rghfrgl]

I think we can safely guess which of Tai's slashfics were her favorite.

As long as he steals it outside the library. The one from yesterday was in-bounds, but if he kisses her at the library, he's going against Claire's wishes.

Tai knew Marten and Claire were together late at night after Faye went to bed, and that Marten was gone early in the morning.  She also knew Dora and Faye assumed it meant they hooked up (and likely shared their assumption).  This is her first actual confirmation that they were a thing.

[vforvancouver]

♪ Red-headed girls, you make the rockin' world go 'round... ♫

[Kugai]

"I'm sorry, Tai is unavailable right now, please leave a message after the squee and she'll get back to you as soon as possible."  *SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

[ReindeerFlotilla]

Tai's obviously been afloat on imagined romance all day and night. She surfaced just long enough for Martin to confirm what she wanted to hear, the when back to imagining panel 3 from yesterday.

OR...

She's catching up on imagined romance because she spent all night writing the erotic parts of the slash fic.

[LilShortstuf]

Then who's the impartial referee?

Well you could just borrow this trophy (Beware NSFW link to Oglaf) (Also maybe this forum deserves the second trophy)




As for today's comic, I was honestly surprised by Tai's reaction because she already knows that something happened. Sure she may have thought they just hooked up and is now squeeing at the fact that they are a couple but I kinda wished for some other reaction. Arbor Day 2003 banner-esque thing would have been dope.
