I think I might have to upgrade my Katvatar because that face in panel 4 is amazingly A wonderful and heartwarming chapter end, thank you Tom!

Tardigrade posted:Next chapter will probably have nothing to do with it, but still. I'm okay with this. Tom is good with offscreen character development, and I don't know if "awkward teen romance" is something that's going to get chapters devoted to it in the foreground. I'm sure we'll get snippets and comments here and there with Kat talking to Annie or Annie talking to Rey or Robot about how they're doing. I'd almost be more worried if it does get screentime

I'm glad Paz was finally lucky. Incidentally, people on the website that shan't be named are going insane with rage over this. It kind of reminds me of when they made the new Ultimate Spider-man black/hispanic.

I've never felt such relief at a comic update before. No hearts were broken this day. Who knows how long their relationship will last, but man is it cute as hell right now. I've always liked Paz, so I'm hoping this leads to her having more screen time.

Well, that was so adorable I had to check this thread to see how many other people found it as adorable as I did. Kat's face on panel 4 is great but I'm partial to how hopeful Paz looks in the third panel

Hmm. Kat asks her parents what they'd think about her dating a girl. They think she's talking about Annie?

"Sir, it's an emergency! We have hit peak adorableness!" "To the lifeboats, men! We must escape the incoming tumblr flood!" Short, downplayed, and totally on point. Good job, Mr Siddell.

Adding my appreciation to this chapters ending. I read this comic every Monday and today it put me in such a ecstatic mood. Don’t think I have ever had something I read on the Internet do that for me.

This is the -est way to start a work day. I'll probably even do some actual work today, that's how I feel. I'm just so glad that both get to be happy. Just look at me, a 30 year old so emotionally invested in webcomic characters. Siddell this is all your fault! The only thing left is to sit back and search for some angry comments to laugh at. Maybe Draw? Do some drawing? Blackheart fucked around with this message at 17:24 on May 27, 2013 |

Knowing Tom's lust for money, the clear course of action now is to -donate so that he eventually builds up a Pavlovian association between his beloved cash and -inducing chapters.

My poor heart is exploding. Also joining the chorus of "Kat's jacket is amazing". I didn't even realise that the Treatises were the chapter before and not the one after. Boy I feel like a dumb.

I debated staying awake for the 3:00 a.m. comic. I couldn't do it but it was kind of nice to read all the other reactions before I posted. SO excited to see how this goes for them! Paz is so brave!

There aren't enough in the world. So glad I was wrong in my attempts at treatise sooth-saying. When I saw the large-ish number of new posts, I went to open the comic so frantically that I accidentally opened the wrong comic. I too am emotionally invested in the relationships of fictional teenage girls.

I'm really glad to have my initial predictions proven wrong. We'll see where this ends up but for now it's a really sweet turn of events and I'd rather enjoy the than wonder how this might turn in later chapters.

So we should get the bonus comic now, right? We could go back to Annie, Smitty Smits and Parley, but we actually might finally see the full love letter. It must've had some references to the animal pens which is why Kat suspected it had to be from Bobby first. Speaking of Robots, what if Boxbot can actually combine with Robox to form... the most average robot? It has arms and legs and all, but nobody seems to have good or bad opinions about it. It would clearly be named Boxbox. edit: durr, it's actually in ursine asylum's avatar. I am the dumb. Blackheart fucked around with this message at 17:26 on May 27, 2013 |

I was so sure this would turn out okay, and it did! It just didn't have bad vibes around it, especially after being reminded of what happened during the Zimmy in Annie's psyche chapter. Tom's also been on a bit of a straightforward streak lately I feel, so I'm sure we'll have more mysteries and conundrums introduced soon enough. Opposing Farce posted:We'll see where this ends up but for now it's a really sweet turn of events and I'd rather enjoy the than wonder how this might turn in later chapters. That was pretty much my reaction too. Even if things don't turn out to be the best down the road its a delightful turn of events at this moment.

Never stop ing As for Annie's reaction, I think she's going to be super-pumped. She might be briefly confused that its Paz and not a boy, but that'll last like a panel and then straight back to being super-pumped.

Eeeeeeeeey! I'm so relieved all this was actually pretty drama-free. Kat gets asked out. She accepts. Everyone's happy. Good.

1stGear posted:Never stop ing Annie didn't assume it was a boy in the first place. And yeah, I can't imagine her being anything other than supportive of Kat having a relationship, for all that she's kind of a dolt when it comes to romance. This leaves Annie the only student character without some sort of relationship or crush. She's never shown any romantic inclination at all, not counting the trick she tried to pull on Jack. I wonder if that's important. It could just be her father's influence; he looked much the same.
