Goddamn it's odd to see Dora with shaggy hair. And the blond roots just make it weirder.
You've lost. You're the Bomb Squad after the bomb's gone off. I'm the blast ongoing.
Woah, a forgotten thread. Yeah the hair threw me for a loop too. In a few comics she'll be all blond, which will take some getting used to. This calls back all the way to number 1302

I liked the time-skip. It's a bit atypical for the series, but it's nice to see time advance faster than three days a month.
the statement above is false
Planescape Hijack
Seconded.
Also, man
◊, someone is going to walk by and jump to conclusions, I'm sure of it. Unless during the time skip Marten suddenly stopped being a Butt-Monkey or something.
"m'llennium hand an shrrr..." Not sure what that was supposed to be. If Martin is butt monkey, the it'll turn into Not What It Looks Like. If not, it'll be "OMG what happened to Hanners!"
Planescape Hijack
Okay, so, this means Dora and Marten are going to break up really soon, I bet.
Well, it would be an interesting piece of plot...
OG Troper
"m'llennium hand an shrrr..."Unless that was sarcatstic; it's Foul Ole' Rons Catchphrase from Discworld. "Millenium hand and a shrimp!"
the statement above is false
It was a reference! I thought it was a reference. Seemed too non-random, but yet odd.

Well, she and Marten have something in common, at least.

Off course, with Coffee of DOOM it would be the logical course of action; insults just don't cut it anymore.
Also, I just read todays strip for the third time, and only now noticed that a cafe really shouldn't have swords. Normal Cafe's, at least.

The sword's not a new thing. (Also, it was in another recent page)
Oh man, that was hilarious. It's the look in her eyes, with the tiny pupils.
I never noticed that sword before in that older comic. I think we might get some explanation soon.

I think it's the "anti-robbery broadsword" from waaaaaaaaay back.

Heh, I remember that thing.
Has Dora ever been this tsuntsun before? She's shown hints, but nothing quite so severe as going all mad-eye on a girl who asked out her boyfriend without even knowing he had a girlfriend. The "you have feelings for five other girls who aren't me" was a lot more understandable—-the cause was more understandable and her reaction wasn't half this severe. I don't know if I want to say this is Character Derailment or what; maybe this is hinting something recently happened to Dora that's massively stressed her out, or something.

Shortpacked called, they want their Drama tag back.
Hope they don't break up.

1. Aww, I'm glad that seems to have been enough to get it out of their systems.
2. HAHAHA. That poor girl...I like to think she has a nice life in general and she's just having a very bad day.
(and 3: Drama? In QC? No way!)

They all drop what they're holding. There's a trope for that, somewhere.
OG Troper
I lul'd. Will she become a recurring character?

Man what the hell does Pintsize have to be down about? He's got a pretty sweet life.

I really have no idea how that was supposed to make sense, but, well, they're drunk, of course the logic...isn't. Anyway, I chuckled.
...
Maybe I'm still feeling that "they're going to break up!" foreshadowing, even though it's been averted, but I get the feeling that this lack of inhibitions is going to lead to drama. Hopefully not! Maybe they will just have fun and nothing will go wrong? R-right?

I thought we had a thread for this before, but I can't seem to find it.
Anyway, I just needed to say that today's
comic bummed me out, as it did its creator. I hope Faye doesn't go through with it. There's a pretty good chance she'll have a change of heart, I think. Sven definitely needs some comeuppance - karma still needs to bite him for that time he kicked Marten out the bathroom to deal with his date. What a jackdouche.
