Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
In this thread, we discuss the happenings in the webcomic Ménage à 3 (first page here). Currently, the hopeless geek has two girls lusting for him while the busty french girl can't get laid to save her life. We also have a guy who can wear sunglasses indoors and not be a total douche bag. Subverting genre expectations since 2008!
First thread: Menage a 3

Nope. We've seen it, too. :smallcool:

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Future's so bright, he's gotta wear shades.
I'm intrigued by this last page. It contains many hints and nuances.
For one, I hadn't earlier understood that Yuki and Zii used to be in the same band, though I guess it could have been stated somewhere. In any case, the drumsticks she carries should probably have tipped me off.
Zii implies that Yuki's freak-outs ruined her music career. Even if I don't out it past Zii to have nude dudes lounging around, Yuki has proven to be difficult and unreasonable towards fully clothed men as well, even if she doesn't punch them in the family jewels.
More interestingly, look at Zii's expression in the third panel. She looks pretty uncomfortable there. Her phrasing is much... I'd call it heavier than usual, too. I think this might be the first time we've seen her expressing dissatisfaction with her job of getting "ogled by geeks," as she puts it. My first impression tells me that her band breaking up left her high and dry, and the only thing she knew besides playing was being sexy, so that's what she did. Kind of a hit to the ego, there.

...Hey, he has eyes behind those sunglasses.

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Huh. Didi's up to no good again...
Wait, when did that become the new status quo?
-
Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Huh. Third panel Didi has a boyish figure. Never thought I'd see the day.

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Is that face "Oh good, I take her as well" or "I am going to kill her"? :smallbiggrin:

Unimportant, Gary has an Adventure Time T-shirt!

I'd classify that as a "Of course not." face. :smallamused:

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
I'm seeing DiDi's face as "Blocked. Again. Damnit."
So a bit of role-reversal. Everyone is chasing Gary, and DiDi is being left out of all the fun. Possibly the first time in her life since she grew her... grew. (Let's not tempt the mods!)
-
Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Now, I don't know if they'll play it straight or subvert it, but I'm currently feeling that the comic is going towards DiDi's problem being due to not being able to get laid, which is... not actually her problem. She's perfectly capable of snaring her prey. She just doesn't know how to flay it so it becomes a juicy steak (this analogy derailed so fast :smallfrown:).
I'd think slightly less of Giz and Dave if DiDi completes her quest without learning something from it. See previous posts why I think Matt would be a great teacher in this regard.

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
New comic. Didi's face in the final panel is the greatest thing ever.
-
Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Wow. We were all off with reading that facial expression.
Welcome to the inner sanctum of Didi's mind, folks. It's as screwed up as everyone else's.

:smallbiggrin: What do you think you know about my inner sanctum? DiDi is a saint compared to me. Now go forth and smite that unholy asian, DiDi, to get your rightful reward!
I also had my trouble with reading Di's face in the last comic. But I guess it's something like "Of course not" and "Dang, foiled again!"

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Did her imagination just reach into the real world and physically slap her? I think Didi may be a wizard.

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
I think "insane" is the word you're looking for :smalltongue: :smallbiggrin:

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
I'm really liking the turn of phrase for a 'complimentary orgasm', for some reason.
I know that it's meant that he's giving it to her as a 'gift', but in this case it's used so casually that he might as well be offering her a free cup of coffee. :smalltongue:

Of course, why not? Orgasm are great things. We should more often share complimentary orgasm with our friends and acquitances :smallbiggrin:

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Isn't this comic NSFW? and as such not appropriate for this forum?
-
Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
It's mostly SFW with some NSFW bits. Like a lot of webcomics, to be honest.
We've been through two threads with no issues, so.
-
Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Ok, new one. Shouldn't Gary be over that by now?

I've had a girlfriend somewhat of Didi's caliber.
You never get over it. Ever.

We even have a moderator posting in here on occasion, ostensibly to keep an eye on the thread, but I just think he enjoys a bit of cheese/beef cake just like the rest of us. :smalltongue:

What are you accusing Glyphstone of, sir? I'm sure his visits here are entirely not for his enjoyment.
I'd agree with Cikomyr but I think the nosebleeds would stop at some point...

Re: Ménage à 3 III: 47 Seconds Later
Yuki, you do have some great moments.

I wonder why Didi look like someone from Soul Caliber.

My apologies, good sir. I shall retract the libellous slur against Glyphstone's good character forthwith, and instead assert that his visits here are entirely within keeping of moderation duties and that any possibly unseemly delight that he may appear to derive from it, is purely due to satisfaction of a job well done.

Or the blood at least re-directed to a different part of the anatomy.

Which part of the body would you prefer to explode in a fountain of blood? :smalleek:
It should be noted that Yuki is probably enjoying the view just as much as Gary is.

Why would he be? Didi is a very attractive woman. Gary has only had sex once in his entire life, and he cannot have it with his new girlfriend due to her...issues.

I believe the concern here is that if Gary is half as accomplished as we're hearing, he should be used to nude model drawing by now. I mean it's possible he just never did much of it but by the time you've done it even a little of it, your mind just kind of goes into a different mental state.
Of course I think it's a bit excusable considering the context is a bit unusual. Dude's been lusting after her since day one after all.
