I . . . I didn't want to leave him in the towel. There's only so much blatant fanservice I can give.

Oh, you're doing just fine so far

Fanfic writers and RPers should love this arc because of all of the background info that it's revealing.

Also lol fanservice.

Wow, this is just....different. I can see this going horribly wrong in many different ways.

Yes. Yes it can. But they have to be 'just good friends' like Bruce and Roosevelt.

Ease up on the beans, Argent.

I like the fact that Jata's towel has a little Snuggy like sleeve for his tail.

And finally we know Sabrina's last name. Is she somehow related to Nino D'Angelo and his song Guardian Angel?

Strange... In my thoughts, Diss has always been a cybersquirrel.

Right. That was also my thought.

A short question in between, where does your avatar come from? Looks familiar, but I have no clue...

Whoa, great eye! I would never have noticed that!

I didn't notice either the different collar color nor the beard. I mean something was different, but I could not say, what it was.

Wonder if Jata buys the story with the 'boyfriend'.

To use an old British comedy catchphrase I think he could 'crush a Grape'...

I must admit I think Sabrina's "Jack O'lantern smile" in the third panel is amazing!

Legotron123 · Post by **Legotron123** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 7:04 am

I'm not sure if he assumes she's joking, is in denial, or just isn't paying attention.

deepskycyan · Post by **deepskycyan** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 7:43 am

Engineering? Credit to team?
Correct me if I'm wrong, BUT ISN'T THAT A TF2 REFERENCE?!

Also, love Sabrina's expression in panel 3, I don't think I've seen Rick draw this face before :P
And my guess is that Jata isn't really taking Sabrina seriously, thinks she's joking.
Wonder how he'll react when he realizes she's not O.o

Isn't Grape the sexy little crossdresser. <3

I like how Grape is blushing the entire time, it's adorable. Also, nice chin fur to make her look manlier.https://www.housepetscomic.com/forums/p ... 01bd640cd6#

Yes, that is great!

And in the last panel she somehow reminds me of Keith Keiser from Twokinds.

HundKatzeMaus · Post by **HundKatzeMaus** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 8:52 am

Something tells me that Jata already know that Grape is a girl and that he will just play along

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 9:35 am

And then Jata was like "I must break you... like tiny grapes." in the third panel.

TinFoilHats · Post by **TinFoilHats** » Mon Sep 23, 2013 9:36 am

Rick, I like you and I enjoy your comic, but I kind of agree with Shadow. Don't you think your taking the fanservice a little too far? I mean, I usually don't mind a little fanservice, but some of these comments make me feel a little weird(no offence to anyone. Just sayin').

Jata's face in the third panel reminds me so much of Sheldon. "Haughty Derision it is."

Like so...with my knee! X3

Grape/'Concord' seems so pleased with things -- at the present -- getting this close to Jata. I suspect her true nature will come out as his aggravating arrogance starts to wear on her.

Okay, so I'm not the only one who got a Halloween-y vibe off that!

yes, yes it is. I have a feeling that tf2 is a favorite of dissension as of right now.

and is Jata getting more and more muscular?

I think it's funny because I think Grape is the one enjoying it the most. =3

I also picture Grape putting on a Sylvester Stallone impersonation now with that collar. only because it's so heavy-looking.

After revealing Jata is pretty much anti-human, I'm sure the punch-line of this arc is going to be Grape doing a Gorilla Press Drop on a leopard. X3

That, or Sabrina/Grape tag teaming him. cat girl power! woo!

Oh man how did I not get that my first time reading.

TheWolfKin wrote:As for Jata, my guess is less "that cat is a girl" and more "how many ways can I crush him and prove my superiority".

Actually, from what I've seen of him, it's probably more of a "Aww, that's cute. That male cat thinks he holds a candle to me."

I'd agree with you there.

PineCat wrote:Grape and Sabrina? C-can this be a shipping now? Please? *^*

Well I'm pretty sure they don't actually have anything between them. This is just to make him think Sabrina isn't single, remember?

WhoElseButQuagmire wrote:

Yes. Yes it can. But they have to be 'just good friends' like Bruce and Roosevelt.

Bruce and Roosevelt are not "just good friends," I'm pretty sure.

Considering that phrase arose from racism, I'd advise against that!

Yes, basically.

Your right, 100%, this will not end well for Gape, Sabrina or he who opposes Jata.

you + Jata + disagreement =pal-drive!!!

Because Grape exploding upon encountering a betoweled leopard would exceed the ratings.
