Bride Goeth Before A Fall (Wk of 1/17/11)

[SAGG]

Kudos on the title pun, RC! (From the 1/18 comic) Man, Ari's sure secure in herself undressing in front of James like that, isn't she? They're almost, ironically, like a newlywed couple...

[SAGG]

(From the 1/19 comic) I wonder now if she still trusts James...

[orfeo]

I'm really digging this James and Ari storyline!

[furrykef]

Ditto that. A completely unexpected pairing, and yet it works great!

[furrykef]

Pffft, "platonic"? Yeah, right, Ari. It's obvious you've got the hots for James. Probably not to the extent you'd ever act on it, but there's something there.

[SAGG]

(From the 1/22 comic) Hm. I'm not sure, but are they holding hands while they're looking in the mirror? RC?

And hey, James--? Ari's a lawyer. They have moolah, generally...

[rcmonroe]

(From the 1/22 comic) Are they holding hands while they're looking in the mirror?

Yes. They're practicing looking "couple-ish".

[SAGG]

(From the 1/27 comic) Wow, Ari's cousin is a hottie!

[SAGG]

(From the 2/1 comic) Gee, I wonder what color should Sherry choose for her hair, RC? It's all black and white to me (and you)!

[rcmonroe]

True enough. It's white now; that pretty much leaves one choice as an alternative.

[Ostracee]

Huh - is anyone (except maybe James) even entertaining the idea that Ari's fully lesbian anymore?

[rcmonroe]

Maybe some of them never entertained the idea in the first place. They all know she used to go out with Rod, and that probably sticks in their minds more since none of them have ever met any actual females she's dated.

[furrykef]

I don't think having a thing for James necessarily contradicts her being a lesbian. Few people are 100% straight or 100% gay.

[DannyBoy]

Sorry, I'm a little confused, hope someone can help out.

Doesn't Sherry already know all about Miriam's ill-fated roadtrip going on tour with Steven in, maybe, Book Four?

Thanks,

Danny Boy (London Derriere)

[rcmonroe]

Sherry knew about the road trip, but she thought when Steven and Miriam broke up, that was that. What she didn't know about (until now) was this.

<useless comment>

YAY, I always liked Sherry better as a brunette!

[SAGG]

So, RC, I guess you feel like drawing all those lines for Sherry's hair again, eh? By the by, how much more trouble is color to do anyhoo?

[SAGG]

(From the 2/5 comic) What in the world--?!

[rcmonroe]

By the by, how much more trouble is color to do anyhoo?

Color would add hours to my weekly workload, hours that I don't have. Otherwise I'd do it.

Hm. You wouldn't consider someone else doing it for you? Or would you have to pay them?

[rcmonroe]

I'd probably have to pay them. If you know anyone willing to do it for free, let me know.

Maybe I can get them to do my laundry for me too.

Enjoying this by-play betw James and Ari!

In the Wednesday strip (2/9), last panel, are they both looking at something in particular (that we don't see), or is this posture coming from their dance steps? (Or avoiding each other's eye contact for this moment.)

[rcmonroe]

Mostly avoiding eye contact. Those darn kids are being shy.

[SAGG]

(From the 2/11 comic) Liqueur loosens the lips, doesn't it?
