Page Thirty-six
Ooh, it’s hard to get used to working on the comic all week. Especially on fridays, because that is the day my boyfriend has off work. He doesn’t actively try to distract me I just need to have better discipline.
I’m terrified at this point that I’m making Osgood too harsh, but I wouldn’t date my boss either.
I wonder if this is gonna turn out to be one of those things where every day is awkward because of that conversation.
awww, well i guess this wouldnt be so entretaining if she had said yes in the fist place.
And although i love the character… i guess i wouldnt be willing to date the doc either >.>’
The subject change was not harsh at all, Doc. Not a single little bit.
Man, Delia’s face in the third panel is so cute <3 I really love how you draw mouths.
That Doc is one smooth operator- I’m sure Osgood DID NOT see that subject change at all. I love how Schtein’s cute little pouterface in the first panel changed immedeatlely to his default anger face.
Aw… I’m guessing Delia is flattered but exceedingly confused on top of being put on the spot. Any girl would duck out of that topic of conversation… Still, can’t help but feel bad for Schtein.
Osgood’s not to harsh, I think she let the doc down really nicely. Like Virus said, it wouldn’t be all that much fun if she said yes right off the bat. And of course Schtein just had to bring up Langstrom. Haha.
I don’t think Osgood is too harsh. I also think her method of adding insult to injury seems fantastically accidental. Like she does a LOT of thinking out loud and sometimes winds up accidentally implying that her boss has never gotten it on with a lady.
I had been wondering, though, when the touch aversion developed. If it was always there, HOW DID SCHTEIN GET HIS FAMOUS PH.D. IN BOOTY-PLEASIN’?
Wow, they’re getting a lot of the romantic tension out in the open really quickly. Some comics it can take YEARS just to get to this point. I suspect some strange complication is about to come in.
His touch aversion developed in childhood. Those films he was in as a teenager showed him not wearing gloves, and I was going to make a joke in the comic about them paying him not to wear his gloves, but those pages were wordy enough.
As for how he got his PHD in BOOTY PLEASIN’, I’m sure that’s more talk than actual experience. I can only imagine his experience with ladies has been far and few in between.
Oh, snap, is he a 36 year old virgin? YEESH.
lmao, i bet you he tried to build a lady robot at some point in his youth. Win win for him!
Well I wouldn’t be surprised actually, given the kind of pick up lines that he uses….
Okay, I am sad that Schtein is sad, but let’s face it, angryface Schtein is the only one for me. And she DOES like him! Eeeeeeeeeee.
I am so excited for the next comic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those exclamation marks are my way of expressing my happy jitters.
of all the things for him to get defensive about, i like that it’s his probable virginity. He certainly isn’t big-headed for how smart he’s supposed to be and it’s amazing that he didn’t get envious at the prospect that his female assistant is smarter than him. He’s very likeable
Not the end of the conversation! Now I wanna know! D<
XD Great as always!
Man, panel six is awesome! I love that listing to the side thing Schtein does. You’ve got such a great grasp on real human body language. It’s wonderfully refreshing and I can’t wait to see where this comic goes.
Aw, I don’t think Osgood’s being too harsh, like Kris said, it seems largely accidental in a thinking out loud way. I know that I’ve done it before. 9_6
Still, can’t wait to see where this goes and how it’ll get worse. ‘Cuz it ALWAYS gets worse.
Panel 1 and 6 make me want to say: “Awww.” Awkward times, like a purple, candy corn stuffed panda.
Awww, as much as I love Schtein, I would have to do the same as Osgood. still feel pretty bad for him D’: . I’m pretty sure there is going to be some awkward times after this though
Aww, poor guy. But, you know, I think Osgood’s right. Even if he WASN’T her boss, he hasn’t exactly been acting like prime boyfriend material. :T Give it some time, I guess.
I agree with Osgood here 100%. I actually think she was really kind about it.
Second to last panel is WIN. As well as a challenge to adult fanfic writers everywhere.
