This is how I understand it, but the fact that he adds "for once" implies that one night stands are his usual... dates, for a lack of a better word.
It feels like a casanova beginning to grow tired of his lifestyle and longing for a meaningful relationship. Why not ? Everyone has the right to change.
Though why it would be meaningful with Mary is still quite mysterious, besides the "I love because you're resisting" thing.

Umm, maybe it would be meaningful because he really likes her and respects her personality?

Of course, but it has yet to be seen, and the elements we have there is that she turned Christophe down, seemingly several times.

Chrisophe might be one of many that Marie has turned down. She is cute as hell but the girl is focused on gaming and Alex. Other guys need not apply.

So, basically, you're saying that Christophe believes Marie is a guy? Or that... Nope, I can't make sense of your post. You may have to elaborate.Zippy wrote:He got the idea from Penelope, who got the idea from.. well... Alex & Marie's "conversation" while on an open mic, which she took literally.Mutant for Hire wrote:Makes me wonder if the 'Alex likes guys' bit is just wishful thinking on his part.

Read the strip where Penelope overhears Alex and Marie. Marie apparently implies that Alex has and enjoys sex with guys. Penelope heard that and told Christophe.

Penelope interpreted the talk about kicking other players' behind as talk of sex
