    Whose child was Marta's?

    We haven't seen her in the strip before, but from the way Fugue said that he sent the others after her son, I'm assuming her son is the Phagocyte.

    Well, more likely the kid he thought was the new Phagocyte, who is actually not at all since the old one is still alive. And I'm kinda sure that she was the fortune teller doing the seance earlier, but I can't really check at the moment.

    I think it's more the concept of her being a beautiful geek that blew his mind. And, um, other parts of his body from each other.

    I think the joke is that his shock at his preconceptions of gender roles being challenged caused him to explode, not that she talked him to death
    nope that's wrong it's the infatuation thing

    You people are blind!

    The man is encountering an attractive women who is single and connects with him on a great many hobbies and displays a great deal of intellect and his very flesh rends itself in agony as he tries to figure out a way to have a genuine human conversation with this person without seeming like the neckbeards who frequent his shop.

    Been there, body felt like doing that.

    The women at the shoe shop brought up how hard it was to play Command and Conquer: Tiberium Sun due to the resolution being so low.

    The man has a terrible acquired autoimmune disease he got from being bitten by a blackfly on a recent trip to brazil that causes his immune cells to target and lyse muscle tendon cells, and they just ate through the last bit of connective tissue holding his body together

    Marty: The future, it's where you're going?
    Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

    Yep, she pulled the blackmail card.

    surely this is where amazigirl's grievous physical assaults could at least satisfy the audience

    I just realized that he's doing in panel 1 what she's complaining about doing in panel 6.

  • BahamutZEROBahamutZERO Registered User regular
    I didn't read it very closely before I came to my previous interpretation, reading it more closely it's definitely more what royce said, he's exploding because he's overloading with how much he wants to hang out with her

    So that park where No-Rae and her ex would hang out is the same one that No-Rae and Seol-A were walking around holding hands in. Doesn't really matter, just kind of amusing.

    Also gawd seol-a you sure talk a big talk considering you turned tail and ran the moment ex-boyfriend showed up... Which is probably exactly why she's trying to talk such a big talk now, I guess. Maybe she'll even convince herself it's true.

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    It can actually be both at the same time.
    This woman is talking his ears off... but she's talking about things he loves and nerds out about, and with an amount of detail to and to an extent that implies extreme nerdiness.
    She's also Hollywood beautiful and dressed in a way that you wouldn't expect somebody with those inclinations to be, and that is already cause for "I don't know what to do HALP".

    Net result is total loss of system integrity, as is normal.

    I like this interpretation of explody-guy comic, but it also makes me sad because it seems like just a one-off joke and we're not going to see them become a happy and well adjusted couple with many shared interests.

    Yep, she pulled the blackmail card.

    she can't prove fraternization, and she should have already told her RA about Becky's roosting beforehand
    girl ain't got any real leverage

    I guess it would at least be an ending instead of endless what-ifs, misunderstandings, and missed opportunities.

    Okay so I mentioned a few days or so ago that I wanted to a fandub of the latest bit in Paranatural as soon as it wrapped up.

    Well I just finished the audio. It's little rough, but I've never worked on something this long in such a short time. And I think it's some of my best voice work. I reeeally liked reading this. Paranatural is the best.

    Video is in progress, but the audio is ready if anyone gives a shit. Links to the relevant pages are included in the SC info.
