    Yeah, E-murl!

    I was wondering why everyone thought he’d be down for getting Frigg’d.

      Because as someone born with a Y chromosome, I can safely speak for my entire gender when I say “why not?”

        Because, as a member of the Y chromosome club with honor, I don’t go banging everything that invites me to. Especially if as in E-merl’s case I still have feelings for someone else.

        You cannot safely speak for our entire gender. I’m pretty sure we never elected you spokesman. Probably because you for some reason think that over 3 billion people can agree on anything, just because we have the same parts.

      I called that he wouldn’t be.
      Though that is just a thing of circumstances.
      I’d probably be fine with it… sorta… once.

    He honestly just looked confused by what is happening in that mental image, but given that it’s Frigg, god only knows what’s actually going on off-panel there.

    But to be srs for a moment, that kind of thing isn’t for everyone, and it’s always good to know your own limits. So good on him.

      I agree. More or less, we all want some, and we also want to see good people get some- but it’d just be better if it was with the right person. It’s hard not to get attached or confused, and it’s really messy if it’s with someone who’s not right with you.

        Yeah, good to have a character who actually knows he will get attached and that he shouldn’t continue rather than what seems like the standard of having him go though with it and regret later…

    Hey, E-Merl… you hear that? Off in the distance, about 12 hours away? It’s the MASSIVE LIFELONG MACK TRUCK OF REGRET, headed straight towards you. And Fr’Nj’s admiration of you won’t ease it one bit.

        E-merl is not Best.

        Frigg, we know, is much more emotionally vulnerable than she lets on. I’d guess E-merl has picked up on that. E-merl’s quite vulnerable himself, right now, and this would be a terrible time for casual sex with someone with whom he works closely.

        And there’s something distinctly odd about Frigg hitting on him now. That, in itself, is enough to give one pause.

          That’s because Frigg isn’t offering because FRIGG wants E-Merl.

          Frigg’s offering because Rachel and E-Merl want to do each other, but Rachel’s both hung up and sees Frigg as an example to follow. If Frigg and E-Merl had gotten together for a quickie, the aftermath would be Frigg going to Rachel and “Yeah, Dope, I totally f***d that. You wanna put me on f***in’ pedestal? Get in there and get your box filled, Frigg-style.”

          In her own twisted way, Frigg’s probably trying to help get them together.

              I don’t think it’s as simple as that. I’m sure that’s part of it, and probably part of what she tells herself, but she’s also frustrated from not getting it on with tall red and handsome (and seemingly not getting any since Best vanished). She’s also rather confused about her new powers still, and probably wants the distraction from that as well. Just my take on the character.

            The thing is, Rachel knows that it is okay to have a quick screw with anyone she feels like. She follows Frigg after all. She isn’t blind

            The real problem is creating lasting relationships. And I don’t see Frigg doing that anytime soon. And that’s what Rachel and E-Merl want.

              the way i interpreted rachel’s rejection was that she wants, very much, to be in a lasting relationship with e-merl. but she sees monogamy as highly immoral because it would be selfish to not share her companionship and affections with everyone. rachel may or may not be experienced enough in relationships to know that she is a “one man kind of gal” but she does know enough about herself to know that pursuing a romantic relationship with e-merl would lead to a life of immorality and or a crisis of faith.

              so her saying “thanks, but no thanks” is what she perceives as the least inconvenient option for all involved.

      fr’nj probably found out because frigg was like “yo, thickbush. you seen e-merl? ima suck every last drop of jizz outta that pansy’s mutt-balls. after that, whattaya think? should i let ‘im hit it like this? or should i ride it like this? or how bout i grind ‘im like this? hmr… probably shouldnt do that last one… thats my favorite and i’ll probably break his dick off.”

          It’s even dubious on the consensuality, since E-Merl is far from enthusiastic about the idea.

    It’s kinda cute how Bandit wants to hear Gravy’s story but I’m not sure if it’s because she likes him or because she wants to hear an hour of how much gold constitutes a mountain.

      Considering she was feet away right before, I’d say she reacted to the keyword “treasure”. Being in the same sentence as the other keyword “moutain” might just have increase her reaction a bit. :p

        He’s a raging ball of ADHD and possible Asperger’s. He knows the technical aspects but hasn’t quite connected it to the social ones yet. To whit, he’s naive as all hell.

        That said, he’s a huge fan of this comic, along with his Mama. :-)

    Since Frigg has a tendency to give Scipio a run for his money in the manly department, there’s a good chance E-Merl is also a little worried about being taken from behind by her glow-in-the-dark Holy Asspect ™.
