Manly Guys Doing Manly Things

To an extent but Tank isn't helping his case. I mean, yes he's go issues but he's not trying to deal with them or even acknowledges he has them.

Also, RL is doing a damn fine job dealing with the psychotic man child. Apparently he's been at it since they were kids.

Well, dealing with super buff dudes with countless different kinds of issues is sorta his job. It's probably like just another day at the job, but with perhaps a slightly more personal touch since he's known Tank for so long.

Explains that slight undercurrent of irritation I'm getting from the Commander, too.
It's like asking the I.T. relative to clean up your computer at Christmas dinner.
He knows Tank, cares about him and his well-being, but I'm still detecting a vibe of "Good god man, I'm on freakin' vacation. Can't I get away from babysitting for one bloody day? I wanna camp and fish and hang out like everyone else."

The depth he's gone out he could probably just reach out and grab the fish at this point.

Yea, but he's trying to relax.

Here's the thing about folks with PTSD - a lot of people with it don't know they have it until they are told that they have it. Mental health services can be patchy, if they are available at all, so a lot of the time it isn't picked up. And a lot of people who do have a diagnosis either don't feel that they are entitled to be helped or that they are worth being helped.

They are still living with the trauma, or with the people who have caused them to suffer it in the first place.

New update, and it's in colour:

And no, I'm not going to complete that song verse from Mulan that is suggested by the title.

Dear god, he doesn't mean what I think he means does he?

That was my first thought too, but no, he's got a mini-bike. As seen here:

The puffin raptors are still the best thing. OUT COME THE BIKES

I want that one in the back that's trying to eat the butterfly. I want to take it home with me and keep it forever.

the moment we've all been waiting for.

Looking forward to seeing that in colour.

I need that in color. It's a nutritional requirement. I am suffering a deficiency of PURE AWESOME in my diet.

I'mma not saying anything else, just go lookie for yourselves.

Oh god this is even better

I did not believe this could get any better.

This entire storyline has been absolutely absurd in the absolute best way.

I think each team should take a raptor and dress it accordingly, then Raptor Squad wins.

This week's episode is now in full, glorious, manly colour. Last week's episode is still monochrome but the author has said she's going to get round to it.

Last week's strip is in color now.

I want a raptor so bad. SO BAD.

I think I can see this heading towards a Gambit Pileup.

And I love it.

The fluffy bird raptors may be cute and all, but I still say the classic-style death Raptors are better.

I agree...

I want a fatbird fluffraptor as a pet so bad.
