But why? Why can't they all go out on a date with him?

She's just assuming he's not poly. And bi. Bad Marie. You shouldn't make assumptions like that.

Penelope's affection for Christophe reminds me of Tatiana's unrequited love for Domenico. Would not be surprised if it is revealed they are related a few strips or chapters from now.

You can't all go on a date with him? Somehow, I think he'd be okay with doing just that.

She is indeed a wonderful artist who could doubtless turn her hand to anything, but from what I've seen, I don't get the feeling that she's very interested in depicting some of those bits in all their wrinkly Lovecraftian glory.

I'm not sure if Penelope actually has a thing for Christophe. It's possible - a bit of a comedy cliché, even - but I haven't seen anything that says she's more than a friend who does properly friendly things like cheering his successes.

The jock having an unrequited thing for the geek girl is more original and kind of interesting...

Huh, a jock who isn't getting the girl he wants. That's somewhat original, though considering how much Marie actually cares for sports (as is not at all), not very surprising.

No it's not? That trope is rather common and has been used in many of tv, movies and books.

I take it you guys don't read/watch much romantic media?

@themacnut: She cared enough to show up and support a friend.

The first thing I thought when I saw the page was

OMG what happend to her face...

Yeah, call me a jerk but I'm a little displeased with the art change. It didn't bother me that much till I saw todays page, this one just looks wrong to me.

Yeah, don't think of this as a complaint, I'm happy this free Comics exist and updates and stuff, I'm just a reader with an opinion.

Jerk...

What? Ven said to call him/her a jerk. My calling him/her that has nothing to do with the displeasement of the art change, that's his/her opinion, he/she is entitled to it ^^ I'm just following what Ven asked to do, which is calling him/her a jerk ^o^
