And Nosy Makes Three

It’s as if they don’t trust me not to meddle in their affairs, or something…

…

Once again, what we’re doing here is establishing the scenario a bit more. As implied in a couple of earlier strips, Poe and Shimako are “an item,” for lack of a better term. I wanted an established pairing to provide opportunities for the kind of banter that you only get out of a long-term relationship. The flipside of that, then, is the (storytelling) need for a romantic situation that, if not actually doomed, is not bound to be a “smooth sailing” deal.

And so… we get Roger and Rei, the jester and rocker versus the babysitter with an occasionally short fuse.

What could possibly go wrong?

I should apologize for two important things, here:

1) I apologize for the lighting. It turns out that the dining room table isn’t nearly as good of a stage as I’d hoped, because I had to get the lights way, way too close to make this work at all. Thus, shiny ducks.

2) I should apologize for the sort-of cliffhanger. I won’t… but I should.
