Heh, yeah. Poor, poor DIllon. He won't be able to lust after Julian without feeling like a cradle-robber. Meanwhile, we now know why Julian sought out Dillon after all this time. Unfortunately for Dillon.Salty wrote:Huh.

but do not be surprised if the "get candles for us" was a ruse to get out that "pesky girl" and there won't be any romance while she is gone

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
Okay, there's stuff we don't know here. Julian's agenda, mostly. Putting Dillon into a state of gay panic is definitely a good trick, though. Of course, this may all just be a trick to get Ruby out of the place while Julian has a private (platonic) conversation with Dillon. But probably not.
Now, is it just me, or are the poses in panel 2 a bit odd? I assume that Dillon is addressing Ruby, and she's leaning to the side to peer round him at Julian - but in that case, Dillon is 90 degrees out for purposes of addressing her. Weird.

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
What it looks like to me is, Julian turned 18 and came looking for Dillon, first thing. Probably had been harboring a serious crush on his memory all through his teen years.
Which is AWESOME because that's exactly what I did when I turned eighteen! Sadly, when I finally tracked her down she was married with two kids.

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
Yeah, I'd just thought that, in reality, the most likely explanation here would be a variant of that. Assume that Julian has just come out, but is as nervous as any teenager would be - then he hears somewhere that a nice, good-looking guy who he's known for years is actually gay. So he jumps on the chance to get what he needs from someone he likes and trusts. It'd generally be rather a bad, emotionally confused idea, but it'd be perfectly understandable.
If that is the case here - and this is SDB, not reality, so no bets at all - then the good ending to hope for is that Dillon finds out and talks Julian through his panic, and Ruby eventually calms down and helps with intelligence and encouragement (and, okay, offers Julian a modelling job later). But that's quite enough unsupported assumptions for one day.

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
Seriously, is EVERYONE gay here?? (Or at least bi.)
Okay, okay, it's been pretty much established over in Ma3, but this is really starting to look like a fantasy world to me.
(Okay, oka,y again, it's a comic, they can do whatever they want...)
It would be brill if Julian were totally trolling Dillon (perhaps not even realizing Dillon is gay), but that's sometrhing people in this comic basically don't seem to be capable of...

Sorry, had this same conversation on GGAR...
But, at least in this universe, Gary isn't, and I suspect the guy from the pet store isn't.

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
So I get to the last panel: for about a minute. I mean seeing Dillon short out like that was really funny.
I'm not sure what Julian's end game is, but if it is to mess with Dillon and get Ruby out of the apartment then, mission successful.
@Art I don't know about you but I needed a good laugh after what I saw on GGaR on Monday.

Re: 30-06-15 Colorful Cupcakes
Agreed that it seems to be excessive, but in this case it's great imo. Julian fell in love with his babysitter and Dillion just happened to be his babysitter. I just hope this is the one time Dillion we see Dillion turn down. Not that it would be terrible either, but as Dillion shows, Julian is that little boy he babysat.Don Alexander wrote:Seriously, is EVERYONE gay here?? (Or at least bi.)

I'm guessing there's a 7-8 year difference between them (I think Gary is one of the older members of the Ma3 universe main cast at 30).
