... So, long time no see, Eloise. (I guess she's either a lesbian or a bisexual.)

Or she just suffers from an unreliable and limited income, and she has to share a bed with her flatmate because they can't afford more space...

(No, I'm not serious. In this setting, probably bi.)

I had to check the tags to figure out who that was. I was wondering why Marie was so angry at her friend.

Me too, until I looked up the TVT characters page because I forgot Marie's name, and saw that Eloise's profile had a crop-up of her face from this new strip (probably because Art Evolution makes her look quite different compared to her first appearance). They really do look alike, don't they?

Two cartoon-strip cute girls with spiky blonde hair, drawn by the same artist, do tend to come out rather similarly, yes. But don't forget the character name tags below the strip; those can help a lot when tracking characters.

And actually, Eloise hasn't changed much in appearance since her first appearance. Actually, she's only been in three strips to date, plus, presumably, one silhouette.

Yeah, but it's exceedingly rare for me to remember to look at the tags.

So, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that it was Eloise swearing to destroy Sandra at the end of the volume.

And while the similarity between them is probably coincidental and due to art style, I wonder if it'll turn out In-Universe that Eloise and Marie look similar and it gets mentioned. I certainly thought it was Marie at first and was rather confused.

New SDB. Ruby's minor hang-ups suddenly get dialed up a notch; Dillon has surely cried wolf once too often by now...

So uh, Nathan was actually correct. There is a niche of straight men who look to have sex with other straight men. They're on craigslist if you want to poke around.

Yes, by most definitions, however they still identify as straight. This could be seen as an issue of biphobia, or something to that extent, but the main point is, Nathan could have easily said that to Dillon, and not have been lying (from his perspective).

Huh. I've slept with men who claimed to be straight, but I mostly considered this to be an amusing fiction for social reasons. It's kind of weird to consider that they may have actually believed it.

Eh, I could see the occasional exception for someone who's doing the sex not because they're actually attractive, but because it's a power trip ("I'm so masculine that even in homosexual sex, I'm the MAN") but yeah, more likely they're just making excuses.

Keep in mind, those craigslist dudes tend to search for OTHER straight guys, or at least, "non feminine" gay guys, so there is a very strange play of masculinity going on there.

It's also a tad racist, since they tend to be white dudes who only want other white dudes.

The latest Sandra has been altered slightly. Pity, twins was such a great image.

Motion lines were added to the last panel, to make it clear that it was a reaction take, and not that Eloise was sleeping with twins.

I too thought it was twins in the SOTR.

Bedding twins is both impressive and really creepy, when you think about it.

... Why is Ruby's face twitching and she's holding/restraining her hand so tightly?

Oh, poor Matt. Way to crush his newly restored self-confidence.
