...I think this is more than that. I think that Matt really does have a bit of a thing for Gary, even if he still can't quite admit it. (Hence the past hallucinations problems.) He's awfully, awfully keen to get Gary into threesome situations, if he really sees Gary as a harmless nebbish. Having cute women (previously Peggy, now Yuki) also present isn't unpleasant for him, but may ultimately be an excuse.
Oh, come on -- she's always been a bit of a dodgy Asian stereotype, or at least had a weird tendency to play to that stereotype. It's a long time since she told Kiley that she could please Gary by just lying there while he had sex with her. She's just got a new (distorted) idea of what Gary might want now.Swiftwinged Doom wrote: ↑Thu Mar 29, 2018 1:51 pmSweet freaking Jesus, what the hell did Matt DO to that poor girl!?! She's been broken down from her former self into a walking parody of the C**k Hungry Asian stereotype of so many awful pornos.
From Gary's point of view, Yuki is someone who has no difficulty saying -- nay, demanding -- what she wants, and generally asserting herself. She spent days using him as a human sex toy, and she's kicked him in the nuts more than once. He can hardly be blamed for not seeing her as a poor wilting flower. She's apparently once more saying loud and clear what she wants to do, despite the fact that he never asked for it. I can't blame him for taking her at her word, yet again. Expecting him to suddenly transform into a white knight for her seems a bit much.And I have to say, I'm really disappointed in Gary's apparent apathy to her situation. This is a girl, who even if he doesn't like her romantically anymore, is still one of his closest friends outside of the core cast.
Gary spent most of the history of this comic being a blank-faced dummy to whom stuff happened. He's now mostly a blank-faced dummy, but one who sometimes wakes up and says "no". Stuff still generally just happens to him. It used to be mostly bad stuff, now it's mostly good stuff, and he's learned to refuse most of the remaining bad stuff. That doesn't make him a deep personality.I also feel it's really shitty on Gary's part that he only recalls his obligations to other people as last minute asides. He also seems to be super fickle in his passions, going from I want to make comics, to I want to study under a Mangaka to I'm at my office working on video game art and every time he takes up a new passion, he just completely discards the others, which feels like a reflection of his romantic life. He just kind of bounces from spot to spot and never really worries about the cost that comes from getting tangled with so many girls sexually. It's caused Yuki to completely rearrange her life to be with him and he just doesn't seem to give a shit at all. It's kind of frightening really
I've made sushi at home, both in the US and when I lived in Japan.. it isn't super duper common, but it isn't super rare either. Its not terribly hard tom ake decent sushi. Its mostly a cost thing. But whatever it is that Matt seems to do for a living seems to pay for an insane amount of living space, mass dinners, sex toys, and all that. its pretty easy to make a really rpetty rolled sushi flower. and if you're making something like nigiri? even easier.Spidrift wrote: ↑Thu Mar 29, 2018 3:35 pmHmm. Is sushi really something one expects as home cooking, even in Japan? I had the idea that it was a specialist skill, and the whole point with good sushi was that you went out to places run by experts. But I'm probably wrong. And anyhow this is probably just another oral sex joke.
Gary isn't really apathetic to her right here. Those two are conseual adults. He properly stated his opinion when she stated "for gary" he turned her down solidly. From his perception, since she never brought anything up. This looks entirely like Matt and Yuki are "a thing" (vomit) and that she and he just want him to join in for a threesome (as both Yuki and Matt have tried at least once before on seeprate occasions with varying succcess)Swiftwinged Doom wrote: ↑Thu Mar 29, 2018 1:51 pmSweet freaking Jesus, what the hell did Matt DO to that poor girl!?!

This is a girl, who even if he doesn't like her romantically anymore, is still one of his closest friends outside of the core cast. In my mind, Yuki and Sandra ARE core cast, since they've been with us since year 1 and we've been watching them grow from the beginning.
