I've had a crush on may from the beginning. Her growth just making me love her more.
Panel 3
Nah. Some martial art involving interesting weapons. With a good teacher who taking the students as you find them and is encouraging. It will fit in with the gaming part of her job and get the cardio health, balance, and all the rest. You can for nd everything from Portuguese staff fighting and HEMA to traditional Japanese martial arts in Massachusetts
My wife is a yoga teacher, she thinks I should learn yoga, and she's right. I should. Some day.
Alternate title: "In which Jeph learns 'Be careful what you wish for."...
"It's a job. Sometime, I'm here because you pay me to be here." - Me, to my boss. And I didn't get fired right after.
Employers who expect passionate dedication with not the slightest hint of respect in return are the worst.
“Kiddo”, an abundance of wisdom…how old is May, anyway?
I've for a while felt like AIs were weird because their mental, emotional, and physical ages would likely be far different from the Human Model.
Can May come be my assistant?????
I kinda think May enjoy being taller than Marigold
May's just out here completely turning Marigold's world around.
Apparently, nice_list.txt has far-reaching implications.
At least May isn’t like “hey Marigold, you need to lose 20 pounds” or “You should calm down more when you’re streaming, you sound agitated from the VODs I’ve sampled.” Right?
Definitely. May's controlling approach yesterday could have been flagging a power trip, but the addition of reassurance, validation, and boundary setting suggests she has a much more rounded management style.
"Dang, I followed you because you were such a directionless slob, and now you're all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed..."
Damn it, I was going to start doing yoga again today. Tomorrow, I suppose...
You got this!
No, no, I can see it - if Marigold doesn't start some good habits right away, all that sitting at a chair streaming all the time is going to do terrible things to her back and stuff.
May casually taking advantage of the fact that she is way tall
Are you sure that this is May?
Its amazing how much of an improvement switching from a job to loath to one you are content or even enjoy is on your whole outlook on life.
I always forget May's new eyebrows are bushy af
They were an odd aesthetic choice.
wut
Ineresting to see May in "giving a shit" mode
kundalini yoga too, get on that floor and I wanna see some bending!
I love where this arc is going.
With Kanye West legally changing his name to "Ye" (pronounced "yay"), will our favorite AI demigod adopt a new one herself? It isn't as if she's restricted by laws.
"They" and "themself" (themselves?), not "she" and "herself"
YEAH, YOGA! NAKED YOGA! TEAM, NAKED, JELLO, YOGA!
May is 100% what Marigold needs. Maybe not the Yoga, but the rest, and some kind of scheduling getting out of the house/staying healthy is super important in a self-directed job.
My dad used to lean on me like that when we were playing Baldur's Gate/Civilization together, and panel 3 is putting a lot of good weight on my emotions right about now.
At 6’7”, the thought of simply getting out of bed hurts (being tall isn’t great for your knees). But, can confirm Panel 3 is me
May, for the love of f'ck, choose your battles
I mean, it is an easier battle when you take your opponent with a surprise ambush?
Dah-yum, May!
It's a little hard for me to imagine May being so...responsible. May and yoga, what? Maybe my perception of her personality has been so colored by the bad attitude that living in poverty with a worn out chassis can engender. It's hard to shine when you're covered in shit. That said, the shock and terror on Marigold's face in that last panel is just wonderful. OH NO
Actually, there was a strip a while back where May was performing… something (at the time, I called it "knife yoga"), so the yoga thing is not completely out of the blue.
Layin' down the wisdom with a big blue amazon goblin. I love it.
Maybe May should have handed out copies of the agenda at the start of the meeting.
I am loving Professional Goblin May more and more.
lol *gasp* LOL!
”Definitely not speaking from personal experience in panel 3” Really now? What about Panel 6 then? ;)
I'm so proud of may God damn
I honestly did not expect her to be so good at this.
[imagines Marigold in yoga pants...]
Imagines May wearing an 1980’s power suit with the huge shoulder pads trying to command the room with artists and merchants wanting Burger Oni or whatever Marigold’s persona is.
What's your angle here, May? Wait no that sounds wrong. How can May twist this -- wait fuck --
And there it is.
Marigold: do you perchance know how's the progress on brain uploading? Just curious
Speaking as someone a foot or more taller than many "normal" people, I am so with May in that 3rd panel. It's just FUN.
Not tall myself, but I did have a gf I could do this to.
Give May an inch, and you'll be doing downward dog in no time.
What if it's an Angry Inch?
Everyone in this strip should do yoga
Everyone outside this strip should do yoga.
Marigold doing yoga... Mmmmmm
"YOGA FLAME!"
It will help with adult fun times.
