I feel sorry for everyone who thinks that Dale's speech bubble in the third panel should be going off-panel, including Jeph. Clearly, you haven't been around enough amazing couples that thoroughly know each other. And haven't been half of enough such amazing couples. They are a delight to behold and a delight to be a part of.
I think this is the comic that convinced me that Marigold and Dale should get married.
Yep. And if they do they will be excellent parents. Not sure why, but they're about the only regularly-occurring characters I can see in that role.
Since Jeph is fixing this comic anyway, I'd rearrange "No hugs too sweaty need shower" to "No hugs too sweaty need shower" or place some punctuation in it.
the whole point is that she's shouting it in quick succession - that's why he intentionally didn't separate them out or use punctuation
Surprised this didn't come as an email. Good comic none the less :3
Check you spam folder... Patreon started to get flagged as spam last night sometime in my email.
is that supposed to be Marigold's text bubble in panel 3? ~<3
Yeh that makes more sense, I thought it might be a voice message on Dale's glasses...
So adorable!
She's a lovely goblin and I love her
I love that Dale knows this about her.
I THOUGHT DALE WAS SARCASTICALLY REPEATING WHAT HE KNEW SHE WAS SAYING OUT OF EARSHOT! ANYWAYS, NEXT STRIP BETTER BE MARIGOLD IN THE SHOWER!
Why do you care about naked primates in a shower? We don’t care about some finch or blue jay splashing around in a birdbath…hmm, or DO we??
I am so loving all the Hanners-Marigold-Dale coverage in this arc. Feels like old times. How about a quick jam session from the band mates, while Marigold washes up?
Did anyone else get the notification for this marked as spam?
yeah the email update was marked as spam as well for me, i wonder if it is the Mr. Pibb reference
I had interpreted it as Marigold being so sweaty that Dale needed a shower after trying to hug her.
Or that he'd be showering with her.
Okay, Dale is officially a good boyfriend.
Dale! Using VR glasses to spy on your girlfriend is NOT COOL!
Now let’s see how May congratulates her.
See. Very supportive and understanding boyfriend who actually ‘gets’ her.
I just thought it was her voice coming through the speakers in his glasses because that's something that could totally happen in this comic. 😁
And here I thought he was reading her socmed post. (I assume those glasses of his are AR screens.)
You're right about the glasses. He met May when she was just an AR ghost they projected for him.
I love the way Dale understands Marigold. There's something very sweet and loving about it.
Grumbling when you're happy is a mood
Dale speaks pretty fluent Mari-goblin, doesn't he?
I thought Dale was grumbling about having to get in the shower with Marigold after having already showered today.
ME TOO
I was very confused why Dale sounded like Marigold.
Screw Diet Dr. Pepper. Dr. Pepper Zero is where it's at.
Double eww
Also panel two is amazingly evocative.
Yeah, I figured it was just Dale channeling Marigold, as only he knows how to, because he’s fluent in grumbles.
I thought Dale was translating grumbles.
same.
Lol, I thought her and Dale were just so in sync that he was speaking for her.
Dr. Pepper is the only doctor I can afford, so I get it.
Diet Dr Pepper… eww.
In the future, when the Dr Pepper War comes, we shall know which side you are on heretic... 😂
Why is Dale the one grumbling in the 3rd panel?
Speech bubble mistake.
Lol I thought Dale was just filling in the grumbling he knows is happening!
That's what I thought too... but it makes more sense that bubble was meant to go offscreen.
