2013-09-24 Do you enjoy his services?

[Eisu]

New strip up!

Even being as ticked at Gary and Sandra as she is... Senna just cant help but to show off.

[Fluffy]

'He serviced me so well last night, I may have passed out'.

Um...no, Senna; I'm pretty sure that was the booze's doing.

And how cute is it that Gary took Sandra's hand and is guiding her out of the room? XD

[Bambikles]

Hu, hu, may be the first time I find Senna's self-centeredness quite endearing.
That was a close call Gary. Try not to screw it all, will ya ?

[Spidrift]

Now, now, Tatiana - don't try to look confused there, let alone even shocked. You're in a notoriously decadent industry, to start with. And remember, you may have a bad case of the unrequiteds, but you're also this comic's closet BDSM queen. A geeky toyboy who can actually shag like a monster should be totally vanilla by your standards. Plus, you lead with your chin there - English may not be your first language, but really, "do you enjoy his services"? That sounds very odd, unless you were trying to hand Senna a feed line.

Anyhow, a couple of points to Gary for the recovery there. It was probably something that came naturally to him - retreating into his domain of competence when the rest of reality gets too much - but escaping and rescuing Sandra for the moment is escaping and rescuing Sandra for the moment.

And while Senna might be lying like a rug, just to annoy Tatiana, it appears that she may have genuinely pleased memories of the night before. (Whatever the reasons, and really, who cares? A result is a result.) Just so long as Gary doesn't conclude that he has to be pissed as a newt to do a decent job in bed.

Hu, hu, may be the first time I find Senna's self-centeredness quite endearing.

Senna has a certain elegant perfection. Other Ma3 characters who behave badly have redeeming features and traumatic childhoods and all that crap, but she just gets on with being Senna. And she does it so well.

I wish I had read this strip first since it builds up to Tatania's conclusion in Ma3.

Quote removed. The DAMNed

[Spidrift]

Yeah. I think one should assume that one should read SotR first on Tuesdays while this crossover continues, because the strips tend to alternate, and it'll be following on from Saturday's Ma3.

Which reminds me - the mandatory art comparison. Today's panel 1 (with cameo inset) actually summarises all four panels of Saturday's Ma3, as that's the necessary set-up for today's joke. It's a good trick, but it does explain why panel 1 is a little bit cramped. Fortunately, Eisu's cartoony style can actually do "cramped" rather well; the way that four extreme expressions burst out of that panel is like ... well, I'll avoid pretentious Renaissance art comparisons, and just say it's like a vodka cocktail with lime and chilli. A bit extreme, but what the hell.

Also, Eisu's Senna and Tatiana are losing their cool rather more than their counterparts in Giz-world, and as we can only get the one Sandra expression, we don't see her being unnerved by Gary's enthusiasm. But never mind.

Incidentally, that in turn reminds me - note Senna's magnificent mood swing/recovery from "seething" in panel 3 to "smug" in panel 4. She's quick on her mental feet.

Ka-Ching. Game goes to Senna.

But the match is not over yet.

*moseys over to Ma3*

Well played Senna. Well played.
