It being Jane's birthday means that half a year has passed since the Act 6 Act 4 flash, right? Maybe they up and beat the Condesce already and have basically been chilling with gently caress-all to do since.

Makes sense, that dress style depends on the sleeves to create a proper silhouette, so in no-arms style it looks goofy.

I'd like to see a sprite combo of Equius and Auto Responder. Or AR in a robot body.

afatwhiteloaf posted:Pretty smooth Jake, soliciting a girl who used to crush pretty hard on you for relationship advice on her birthday that you forgot about. Given that he doesn't know she has a crush on him, if he really did forget her birthday, he probably has no reason to think this conversation will be in any way out of the ordinary.

It says something again about Hussie's writing ability, that we unironically cannot wait for the potential return of a character who is most known for his sweatiness, classism, fetishisms, and being a connoisseur of horrible horse pornography. I just can't get over it. "Now to make you love him", indeed.

Yeah, this is pretty much a quintessential sitcom-y setup. Jane denied having any attraction to him whatsoever, which he took to heart. The soliciting her for relationship advice on her birthday which he conveniently forgot, however, is pretty high on the Dick Moves scale.

Maybe Jake's been spending his time away from Dirk hunting down/alchemizing Jane the perfect gift?  Though knowing Jake he'd probably just give her some kind of skull.

For all we know the first words out of his mouth in the pesterlog sure to follow on the next page will be "happy birthday Jane". We have no reason to assume he'd forget it, he clearly remembered previously, as evidenced by her collection of bunnies.

Captain Oblivious posted:Gcat's tiny party hat is the best. Although it strains my suspension of disbelief to imagine a cat, much less a cat with godly powers, would permit itself to be subjected to such an indignity. I suspect Gcat showed up already wearing the hat. Attempts to evict him from the party ended in the most abject of failure.

Well, it seems suspiscious that neither he nor Dirk mentioned it, plus Dirk was making plans for them to do something and didn't mention going to it, plus if Jake knows it's her birthday and decides to ring her up for romance advice without once remarking that maybe he should just go there since it's her birthday and he's expected... Simply put he's not really acting like a guy who remembers there's a birthday party going on.

The fact of Jane's birthday wasn't really relevant to the previous scene, why should it come up? Why should DIRK making tomb raiding plans have any bearing on JAKE'S intention to attend the party or not? Why should we assume he doesn't have every intent of hopping over there via gate portal/roxy portal/transportalizer very soon? I don't know maybe I just have more faith in his sincerity as a good honest kid that legit cares about his friends than you guys are seeing. I'm an optimist like that.

He can care about his friends and forget a birthday, happens to the very best of us. More to the point, if he hasn't forgotten it actually looks worse since that means he's calling Jane up for romantic advice rather than heading over to celebrate her birthday, which is pretty selfish. And it's not a bunch of assumptions so much as a bunch of circumstantial evidence that collectively suggest he and Dirk have forgotten or aren't thinking about it - thinking that all of the above possibilities are plausibly explained some other way would be a lot of assumptions. I mean, if Dirk wanted to plan some occasion to hang out with Jake, why not the birthday party going on right that moment? He could be making tomb-raiding plans in person then.
