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.

I am pretty sure Annie would be the worst person to be in a relationship with.

I'd like to know if anything's going to come out of the fact she's been copying Kat's homework, though. Other characters have paid enough attention to it that I'd assume it'll be a thing.

I never even noticed until you pointed it out that Tom didn't use gendered pronouns in that strip. Even more :3:.

If getting pregnant meant you were going to die a few years later, I think that would be a big thing to scare you off of relationships. So really, if any of the characters should have been gay, it should have been Annie, since odds are, straight Annie is going to die in the prime of her life, just like her mom. :( (Not that one gay/bi/confused main character means you can't have more)

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.

There was nothing straightforward about this chapter! Now I must use this smiley too: :3:

There are ways for a woman to have a relationship with a man without getting pregnant, you know. It's not actually a foregone conclusion.

I would have thought he'd complain that it still doesn't count for reasons that require several paragraphs to explain. He still came across as incredibly self absorbed and condescending so it's good to know he learned nothing

You just know he's sitting there smugly certain his scathing denunciation is why Tom decided to go with Kat+Paz.

I'm curious as to how Paz is going to change the Kat and Annie dynamic. I'm sure Annie will be happy for her. Kat and Annie are close...but Kat may like having someone around who is more dependable, who doesn't take advantage of her as much.

I know it's easy to forget this with little orphan annie (yes i know technically not, but c'mon), but Kat's parents are at the court too.

I wonder how they'll react. I doubt it would be bad, they seem like awesome as hell parents, but I'd like to see that when the time is right to explore it more.

Don't really know what the norms are at the court with these kinds of things. My assumption is present day norms, or perhaps even much more tolerant that is in real life now. It's something that hasn't really come up as far as I know. I wonder if its a point of controversy.

Wait, someone else here likes Band vs. Band too? Oh, wondrous day this is! :glomp:

For everyone else who is confused, Band vs. Band is a strip about two bands and their emotional interactions, is full of :3:, and has a unique and utterly charming art style.

Back on topic, what do you think the next page is going to be? Kat talking to Annie? Kat talking to Jones? More Mort Fun Time? Tom finally drawing someone with a dinosaur?

But these things aren't really common knowledge among the court student body, and Kat's fears and anxieties had to come from somewhere.
