Either Julian has a supernatural gift for accidental double entendre, or he has the clumsiest seduction technique in the history of adolescence.

I'll admit it would be much funnier if it was all because of double entendre. Time to put him out of his comfort zone, in a completely different way than Ruby. And it's funny as hell !

Wonder how many more comics they'll drag this out before we find out which it is? The way these comics go, I can see it going either way at this point.

Maybe, by the time Ruby gets back, both will be too drunk to fuck...

Oh gods...the question is, how much is Dillon reading into things and how much is really there...

Will she then take it upon herself to help them into bed so they can sleep it off. Tempting. Very very tempting.Don Alexander wrote:Maybe, by the time Ruby gets back, both will be too drunk to fuck...

Honestly, Julian's lines are barely double entendres, and his body language was wildly romantic last strip. If he isn't after sex, the writing here is trying too hard.themacnut wrote:Wonder how many more comics they'll drag this out before we find out which it is?

One problem with this scene is that it's very similar to when Dillon first brought Ray back to the apartment - right down to the discussion of beer. Except that this time, Ruby has been sent away. Slightly repetitive writing, to be honest.Don Alexander wrote:Maybe, by the time Ruby gets back, both will be too drunk to fuck...
And of course essentially fairly harmless, so she could square this with her conscience with only a little doublethink. Except that Dillon would end up with a nervous breakdown...brasca wrote:Will she then take it upon herself to help them into bed so they can sleep it off. Tempting.

That and the fact that I doubt a woman Ruby's size could drag and lift a man Julian's size into bed.

The trick is tto convince the drunk that he should go a certain way and do certain simple things. Steering, not lifting.

Poor Dillon...
I thought for sure that Julian was after Dillon in a romantic sense after the last strip. Now I'm not so sure. Dillon, like myself, could be reading too much into this.
If this keeps up Dillon mind might break under the strain of figuring Julian out.
