I'm kinda hoping it works out between them. It'll be interesting to see Matt actually caring for someone other than himself and it'll be nice see to Radic a little less uptight after some "Treasure Type O" much, much further down the line.

Keep the comics coming Coffee!

I predict something going horribly wrong, because i always expect the worst possible outcome.
That way i'm not surprised when something does go wrong.
Its also the name of the Comic.

I was fully expecting Matt to dine-and-dash as well, though I'm not sure Radic will let him do it. There's really a ton of ways this date could end up, depending on how many perverted comments Matt makes and how he reacts to the expensive bill.

No matter how this date ends up, there have been hints showing that Matt cares about her more deeply than just getting in her pants. Radic, however, might not realize this. I want to see how their relationship evolves as a response to this date that may or may not result in the two of them getting kicked out of the restaurant.

As for where the overall comic is headed, I'm enjoying these small, refreshing breaks from the main plot. You're taking advantage of this pause in the main story to develop the characters. It feels a bit like filler, so I wouldn't want this kind of thing to go on too much longer, but I understand why you'd follow Lloyd's flashback, Rust's rise to power, and Janine's dark backstory with lighter, comedic strips.

I expect his plans to be dine-and-dash or forgery-related as well, unless he did something surprising and won a coupon at an archery contest.

During the date, I expect him to continue to be adorably flabbergasted by everything and Radic to at least smile at his innocent silliness.

Then again, I might be biased by my hope for more silliness. :3

I don't think she goes there on the first date. Maybe first base.

Though if they do end up kissing, we can expect Serrin/Janine/someone else to interrupt them in the most awkward way.

(Psst, Coffee! Just saying that Radic/Matt has been my favorite pairing so far. Granted, there aren't that many other pairings here to compare it too, but still. I like what you've done with them, both with comedy and character development.)

Ok. How many think they will reach 1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, or all the way? It doesn't matter if they're interrupted by Radic crying foul or by a thousand-pound monster coming in the window.

I say 1st base.

But then I'd just fly into something! It's already a blizzard here in my avatar spacey place!

As for what base they will get to? Definitively the Red base, Team Gale strikes me as a Blue team. :3

So I've been away for a while.
I've also been trying to sort out my photobucket, so the fanart links are no longer valid. I don't have time right now to link in the right ones, but I think you can find them in my first in the Art Upgrade Project post... not 100% on that though.
*

In the meantime, thought I'd drop this here. I did it for your birthday Coffee, but decided at the time it was a bit too rubbish to actually send you. In retrospect I think it's kinda cute. The whole "party" ought to be there, including the non humanoid members, but I may have missed someone in my hurry. Am not up to date on the strip, but totes planning on coming back.

*They're all over here Please PM me when you've got the folder, Coff, because I'd rather the links were more direct if possible but don't have the time to reformat stuff right now. Thanks. See you around.

That link reminds me of the artist who drew for the Penguin Editions of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory/Great Glass Elevator. Fun, fun, artist.

Sorry everyone, Skyward Sword took up a lot of my time this week and I was gone all day today. I'm working on the comic right now but I'm exhausted; it'll be up tomorrow morning. In fact, I'm going to finish it before playing tomorrow!

[delurk]I'm betting Matt will try for 2nd base. He will come back to the hotel and ask Lloyd for a Lay on Hands. [/lurk]

Training spice tolerance? Hogwash! The only way to get used to spice is to eat the spiciest thing at the restaurant right off the bat. Matt knows what he's doing. He will absolutely hate himself over the course of the meal and the morning after, but such is the price to pay for looking manly on your date.

Hogwash? When I was younger I couldn't touch anything spicier than dalh. Now? Bring on the coconut chutney. It's bad here, they overdo the chilli.

Matt is about to be in so much trouble and he doesn't know it yet. I look forward to grinning at his pain.

Are you kidding? This is Matt and Radic we're talking about. Either Matt breaks down and starts bawling like a baby from the heat, or he's in obvious pain but tries to tough it out and Radic is annoyed at his trying to be macho.

Naturally. I might be proud he's trying to take the manly route, but I have no delusions as to just how poorly this is going to end for him. (hence: hating himself throughout the meal and the morning after.)
