  1. The first thing I thought of when I saw panel 5 was "Yes. For truly, I am… A HORRIBLE DRAGON!" http://www.octopuspie.com/2009-01-28/251-a-horrib

  2. ARC SUDDENLY GETS REAL

  3. I just realized I used to be younger than them when I started reading OP, and now Im quite a bit older. *GROAN*

    1. Y'old fucker.

  4. In love with who????

    *GASP*

  5. Yowch, Will's leaking!

  6. Oooo… That's not good. Tattoo bled through his bandage or the bandage fell off when he was throwing up? Either way, that shirt is stained for life.

  7. Does anyone know what song they're singing? I tried googling the lyrics and couldn't find anything!

    1. I think it might be this: https://youtu.be/Uev2J_cBHjQ (Broken Social Scene – 7/4 Shoreline)

    2. It's "Fire Eyed Boy" by Broken Social Scene

  8. Yeah, drinking a lot before getting a tattoo will make you leak your red juice out a lot.

  9. First time poster here, just wanted to ask Meredith if the BSS references are because you saw the band playing recently. If positive, was it at the MHW or at Panorama? I'm just wondering because I was at the MHW one and it would make my memory of that night even better, which I thought impossible, knowing that the author of one of my favorite comics was also there.

    1. Nope, never seen them live! That sounds like an amazing show tho. 🙂

      1. It was! They played every song I had wished to see them perform live. They also announced a new album so that was also great B)

  10. Huh. I just got a tattoo and not only did I not leak at all but I didn't even bleed really. It formed a perfect scab which later flaked off except in one area that's taking a little longer (I got the thing 2 weeks ago). It wasn't even really red the next day, my coworker (who has tattoos as well) was pretty amazed that my skin took it so well.

    Is the leaking an alcohol thing?

    Is the leaking an alcohol thing or do some people just do that?

    1. Alcohol. Plus he puked and the bandage probably fell off.

  12. I listen to 7/4 Shoreline at work almost every day. 10 AM, the caffeine kicks in and shit gets doooone

  13. To those posting about the tattoo thing… as someone who's covered in tattoos, I can confirm that there's a LOT to play in a tat "leaking" ink.

    1) Alcohol, duh. Thins the blood, raises ink, heals improperly.
    2) Some people are just bleeders. I know I am. Mine bled from anywhere between 3-6 hours after I got them. You have to remember it's a LOT of little cuts.. plasma is constantly being pushed to the top of your skin.
    3) Could just be excess blood he didn't clean off, bandage came off and sits on his clothes. It comes through.
    Ever fall asleep with a fresh tattoo? Ever wake up and notice that there's a literal identical imprint on your sheets/covers/whatever? Yeah, that happens a lot. Especially with me.

    Anyway, great arc. Keep it up! Can't wait until the end of it! I'll be horribly saddened when this comes to an end.

  14. My instant answer to the last panel was "With Eve???" Even with Will crouched over a toilet I still ship those two so hard.

  15. Who is Will in love with? Hanna? Eve?

  16. Aw wait, Larry tried to warn Hanna about hooking up with Steven. Turns out he just wants them both!! ;_; Poor Larry. Why did no one consider he might need a 3-0 3-some???

  17. And back to the shrink's office now? ETA: Yup

  18. I'm really hoping he's not mumbling into the toilet about being in love with his therapist.

  19. I remember 30. That was SO long ago….
