Double Date - 76 - HD

I can has "to be continued?"

- At egscomics

Not actually to be continued! I mean, it will be, the events of this storyline can only go so far in EGSNP, but it's not quite over yet.

Catalina's been wanting to unleash this silly answer since 2024-09-24 07:13:50 +0000 UTC View Post

Surprised Catalina face

I genuinely wasn't consciously trying to imitate a certain shocked electric rodent, but after choosing that face for a preview image, I can't unsee it.

Three spells in one

Cast two, get the third for a higher cost! What, you thought it'd be free? No no no. Merging multiple spells into one results in the OPPOSITE of discounts.

Cats out of bags

Dogs and cats, out of bags, spilled beans everywhere, mass hysteria!

Panel three has a special place in my heart, and it's because it reminded me of something very, very important:

ACCURATE PERSPECTIVE IS OPTIONAL.

Super fast magic

- At egscomics

A spell is never late, nor is it early. It is finished being cast precisely when the wizard means it to.

Which is five rounds from now. Somebody tank so I can do this thing.

Turkey time

At least, I THINK getting three strikes in a row is a turkey? I figure even if I'm wrong, it's a good choice for the preview.

Lucy Kitty!

I confess I did not have an exact context in mind when I proposed the possibility of Lucy finding herself receiving head pats from Catalina and Rhoda.

Of course, it turns out I didn't need one, because OBVIOUSLY Lucy would be dressed like this, complete with cat ears and a tail. It's basic math, really.

Frame Two

Frame two is specifically sized to house non-standard poster sizes that are off one inch from the industry standard, thus making them mostly useless unless you have EXACTLY the right poorly made poster.

Twistier than a pretzel

Wait, are pretzels actually twisted when making them? (Watches a video on making pretzels.) TWIST! They said twist! I'm validated. Pretzels are twisty.

PLOT TWIST, FOOLS!

Oh.

Those are my odds?! Goooood.

Catalina is strategizing, and naturally, we should be very concerned.

Diane fact

The most important thing to understand about Diane is that her hair is pointy, making her instantly identifiable, and preventing any sort of confusing her with other characters.

Next EGSNP Tuesday

I'm plotting to wrap up the Double Date storyline, and I'm not a hundred percent decided on how to do that.

As such, I'm essentially giving myself until Monday for my mind-brain to sort everything out.

If I don't, I'll probably panic and just have Rhoda shrink everyone, and pretty sure no one wants that. Ninety-five percent sure, anyway.

The score to beat

- At egscomics

If you think you saw this comic on the main page for about a minute, no. No you did not. I would never make that mistake, and if I did? I would deny it.

Which, um, is not what's happening now, but I would.
