Compromise!

Well, not so much a compromise, but rather a reasonable option for them to do. Look, I had to choose some brief words or other to put up there.

Always Three, There Are…

"Wait, I thought it was two." "You're thinking of Sith." "They're not Sith?"

Schedule conflict

The schedule conflict has nothing to do with Susan and Jay. It's actually two anthropomorphic TV schedules kickboxing each other.

Uh, isn't Jay REALLY Against Cheating though? I thought that she kinda blew up at someone for abusing magic to win- isn't it a touch hypocritical to use magic to cheat grades?

[egscomics]

Jay's not claiming to be using magic in today's EGSNP. She's considering magic as a possible explanation for why she's so good at multiple choice tests.

Her point is that, if she was using magic, she wasn't doing it on purpose, but it would explain a lot.

As for her getting mad at AJ, Jay's initial hostility towards AJ came about due to a misinterpreting his spell as reading her mind. The thought of mental invasion was what set her off. She barely cared about the spell itself upon learning what it actually did.

After that, she was prepared to simply play the game as normal with no animosity towards AJ, but then she overheard AJ insulting her. That, and her general mood in that moment, was what set her off the second time.

In short, we don't really know how Jay feels about cheating. Given her personality and history, however, it's likely highly contextual. I will, however, boldly declare that she'd be against cheating in a friendly game.

The Conundrum of Aerial Combat

Don't tell anyone, but they're not actually flying. There's just string keeping them aloft.

I removed Grace thinking "darn sun…" from this page. It's enough for impending continuity that she squints. Drawing extra attention to it just made the page more confusing.

No masks

Unless there's a health concern. Or a heist! But this isn't a heist storyline. Also, note to self: Do a heist storyline.

Angry Tedd

"My bark is worse than my bite!"

"Shouldn't that be the other way around?"

"When you consider who all my barking might summon? No."

Small talk

As in talking about trivial things, not talking while shrunk or whatever. Anyway, so begins Masks, the latest EGSNP storyline.
