New Strip! Teddy has to think fast when he takes Abby to a store to buy her new clothes and underwear!

Are they.... just ignoring the wings and tail then? Or do they think it's some sort of "costume".

Either way, not sure what Teddi is doing here exactly....

Raise your hand if your reading just the forum and not the actual comic.

...why is Teddi letting her go a size too small?

That explains the clerks' reaction. I know Abby now has that knockout succubus physique, but seeing a hot girl modeling underwear in a lingerie store isn't that out of the ordinary unless she has horns, wings, and a tail.

Teddi did say she wanted to see if they matched her costume, so that probably implies to the clerks that the wings horns and tail are said costume

Also, goodie, more creepy Abby fanservice. :ymsick:

Okay, suspension of disbelief is a necessity for any fantasy setting but... what kind of shoddy store doesn't have damn changing rooms?! From the shown layout, it seems as though Abby got undressed and put on new underwear right in the open of the showroom. For crap's sake, I know she is an idiot, but she's with Teddy - ah - my mistake, Teddi is really god damn stupid, too.

It sort of feels like the writers are trolling (especially since the last panel shop assistants have such ridiculously clownish expressions), however, I will give the benefit of the doubt that they simply don't know what to do next with Chloe, so we get the meandering, pointless, and creepy-when-you-think-about-it fanservice instead.

I didn't even think of that, but yeah, that's a good point. I don't think I've ever seen a store with a mirror in the middle of the floor, except maybe once, but that was a store that sold suits, and the mirrors weren't for modeling underwear for all to see. Thrn again, this is a world with a strip club that has a shower on a stage where people think a girl with lucky the leprechaun's voice is sexy, so f$@& logic i suppose.

Sometimes you just have to nod and go with it. :|

Presumably Abby has to be in the open for Teddi to freak out when the clerks make the comments about her getting laid at the party.

And presumably she had to be out in the open in her undies (even though no mainstream store in the world would usually allow that) because she couldn't possibly look sexy enough in a dress or other outfit.

All of which requires an awful lot of nodding and going with it.

It almost seems that sometimes all the creators think about is the final panel and that nothing before that has to make any kind of sense.

Edit: and I've read enough manga to know that scenes like this aren't uncommon but they usually involve buying swimsuits which are designed to be seen in public and not underwear which usually isn't.

I notice Teddi has acquired a more conservative wardrobe.

The open area changing room is disturbing enough (especially when you consider men also frequent lingerie shops); but the fact that Teddy (Abby's brother) is helping her chose lingerie is even more disturbing.

Just because they share the same genitalia now doesn't change the fact that it's still creepy af.

I think I see where we’re going here.

Teddi will realize shortly that he really does need Chloe. Abby can’t possibly have anything like a normal life now, she can’t even hide her wings. She’s going to need someone to point her in the right direction.

Well Teddi does have more experience of buying "grown up" lingerie than Abby and seeing that her taste is pretty weird perhaps it's for the best that Teddi is there to stop her buying a basque with teddy bears on it.

*checks again, then again, still doesn't get it* Those look the right size to me. What about them says 'too small'?
