Never change Marie, never change.I love what Alex does here. Being the good brother can be tough sometimes but this was well played by him. Marie on the other hand
Really good strip

I guess Marie can be just as clueless as Alex.

If the hug was awkward we're gonna need a whole new word for Marie's reaction from the looks of things.

So this is the perfect couple : Marie will see things Alex is clueless at, and reverse !

Basically, the geekiness in that room just went over several critical thresholds and is running for the horizon. Awkward sibling hugs may be awkward, but they aren't supposed to be ... choreographed ... that way. And everyone has blind spots. And...
Ah well. Good strip.

(just from a technical point of view, I'd like to point out, in case it hasn't been noticed yet, that the preview image for this [like, the one that appears in other comics] hasn't been updated yet 
)
I'm stuck between "aww" for the awkward sibling hug and "oh dear, Marie..." for, well, you know what for x)

Don't over-stress. If you manage to get it done tomorrow, just schedule it for Tuesday rather than running to stay still!Eisu wrote:Tuesday's strip is up. Will try to get Friday's up tomorrow. Will TRY...

I see Alex is treating this with all the required gravity. In her surprise, Marie nearly falls.
