First:, re Friday’s strip, cue the X-rated fanfics! (And I love having a dirty mind. Guess what popped into my head when Helen said “swap bodily fluids with Dave”? Heh heh heh… -_^)

Second: What’s so bad about 2′ long corkscrew penises anyway? Or elephant penises, which are prehensile. Or… And curse you, moderators, for taking out my link to bad-dragon.com [WARNING: DO NOT LOOK THAT WEBSITE UP UNLESS YOU ARE OVER 18 AND ARE NOT OFFENDED BY SEX TOYS!]

(Okay, I actually left the link out deliberately because I don’t want to get in trouble for posting potentially pornographic links. And I really mean that warning above! Look up Bad Dragon at your own risk! Don’t say I didn’t warn everyone! In fact, just go over to TVTropes.com instead! Seriously! Stick with work-safe links!)

He also has this honestly affectionate father-daughter relationship with Faith, again while they’re both planning horrible things. He gives her a knife and says something like “Be careful with that, and don’t put out anyone’s eye … until I tell you to.”

(Let’s see, let’s see, I know I’ve got this down somewhere… ah, here it is.)

Next time…

All I have to say today is that the mittens do a good job of …hhhhh…. situating this arc chronologically.

That, and to call today’s trope bingo: voila.

Off-panel head inserts: 5. Well, I suppose it’s better than a balloon emanating from the right panel wall..

The expressions on the face just recall early Trudeau.

Also, in panels 3 and 4, one of Mell’s hair-tendrils has become a Dave’s-cigarette-like dangling hovering thingy.

 I seem to recall Dave exclaiming after the break-up something along the lines of “Good lord! I’ll never have lesbian sex again!”. I remember that the underage barfly that turned out to be their daughter was there for it… Anyway, I assume this means that Girl Helen is attracted to both Boy Dave and Girl Dave at that point. Mostly because she likes him for his mind, right?
