Tom please, there are apparently blind, deaf, mute children reading this comic who have never heard or seen kissing before.

All that's missing is "I'm nine years old and what is this?"...

That said, I like it more when the GC thread is commentary about GC, rather than metacommentary about GC comments. So of course, I'm doing a metacomment. :v:

But on the other hand, I don't see much to say about the chapter so far. Kat and Paz are cute and funny together, but there isn't much room for speculation about the greater mysteries of the Court.

I like how this chapter showed us that progress is actually being made with the bio-robot muscle stuff, without needing to focus on it and instead doing some big character growth.

I love how Paz just sees through everything Kat does. Either Kat is really bad at disguising her motives (she is), or Paz is basically Batman. And then Kat gets her mojo back today.

Why not both?

Of course even if Paz is Batman she's better, because I don't think Batman can talk to animals.

On the other hand, given his history with the Joker, I don't think Batman is afraid of clowns.

(As for enthusiasm about seeing cows, I give it 50/50.)

Correct. "Adorable" and "cute" are fine, but "sexy" is not a word that should be allowed within 300 feet of Kat and Paz.

I can't really remember that last terrible thing to happen, actually. Robot getting attacked on the roof seemed pretty terrible at the time.

Cyphoderus posted:

It legit makes me sad seeing so many people missing the point so hard

Are people just that egocentric, in that they think a "character has been ruined" just because it doesn't conform to their expectations? As if their ideal fiction was completely predictable and conformed exactly to their view of the world. That's boring fiction, man! You see it in this thread too, when people are speculating: so many people thinking the comic will go in x direction, when x is what they think should happen, and not, you know, similar to the kind of thing Gunnerkrigg Court has done in the past.

"Love makes you act in strange ways"

It was played as a bit of a joke in this chapter but it seems possible this relationship is going to sour the whole "angel/creator" thing Kat has going.

I hope not, I want to see how the robots react to the Angel/Creator having a girlfriend. And Paz reacting to the fact that her girlfriend has a cult of robots who think she's a divine being.

SHISHKABOB: Nov 30, 2012; Fun Shoe

I don't think there's been any suggestions whatsoever that Robot has "feelings" towards Kat that would make him jealous of her and Paz. Robot very explicitly said that he loves Shadow.

# ? Nov 12, 2013 04:42

Heavy Zed: Mar 23, 2013; Is there anything here I can swing from?

Yeah I don't think anyone is implying that.

But the robots as a group make a big deal about Kat and it's not clear yet how Paz will fit into that picture or if she can at all. One really obvious thing that could happen is the robots assuming that Kat will want Paz dead at some point, since that was what love drove Diego to right?
