They love the night, this pretty pair,
Now they’ve had a fright and scare
They’ve lost their friend, our Steve,
But not in the way they’d grieve.
Slipping under the covers to sleep,
A love and affection near unique,
Their peace disturbed by a sharp cry;
Steve’s found Mice and now they’ll fly.
Sleeping their way through bedtime terror;
Isn’t going to work; they’re in error
If they ever thought he’d go away….
Delusional Steve’s here to stay!!

There is no sleep, only cries of triumph when Steve's around.

Well so much for my (admittedly forced) head-canon.

If I'm not mistaken, 2011 Rick was a little prejudiced.

Looking back to the earlier arcs, it doesn't surprise me though. Come to think about it, the whole comic has always had a lot of parallelisms to real life equivalents. Thought he'd always keep it subtle with the roos though, let the readers imagine them as just friends/couple if they want.

Re: 2016/01/09 - Not Over Until Its Over
Cheers for adorable smooches! I'm very happy with the outcome of this arc.
But also, I had to look into the forum when I saw it. Because when at first I cheered, I also thought "Someone will definitely be disappointed by that", and well I was right. Blaming it for not being subtle is blunt, to say the least. A webcomic of this length and history is much invited to make a "no discussion" statement at some point. But most of all it's not the comic and even less Rick that is a disappointment, but anybody that accepted all the other smooches wordlessly, but has to go grumpy on that one.
Readers need and want to connect to the stories they read, especially if they already feel a lot for the whole story. It's one of the hardships an author has to deal with, and one of the greatest boons. And as a gay man who has to hide his orientation, has to hide his love behind closed curtains, a little tell-tale kiss plain on the screen in a gay relation is a relief and a welcome gift Rick gave me. One I and many others will appreciate for a long time, and that's what counts.
Another word on disappointment: During following this webcomic, it made me stumble when Cerberus was turned into a female. Because I didn't get why, why had the character have to look 'endowed' all of a sudden, why go through the trouble messing with latin grammar, just why was it not good enough to let that remain neutral for at that point cosmic entities had no actual gender-identity at all.
I was a little peeved on that at first, but this is Ricks work. I want to read his story, follow his creativity, learn whatever he has to show and tell. That being as it is, there is no expectation that could be disappointed. I trust that he does what ever he sees fitting or necessary in his every strip, and as such I enjoy and respect everyone of them.

Awkward expectations. Like those two dudes that act as a comedy duo who act like brothers, but are not brothers or even romantically involved.Sleet wrote:There's been kisses before. Why is this one disappointing?
I like that the relationship was established now. Now i'm curious if this is going to have any afect in the f uture of the comic for these two? x3

Three of them were Bailey-King: One when he proppossed, one before bailey left to fight, one at the wedding.
One was Fido resurrecting Sabrina, which can't be considered a propper kiss.
One was Dragon trying to kiss peanut, one was Miles kissing Lucretia in the forehead, one Sasha kissing Fox in the cheek.
The only full-blown kiss that wasn't between King and Bailey was Jessica and Zach
All of them except for Dragon-Peanut/Sabrina and Lucretia-Miles had a big impact in the storyline
But that's beside the point.
The 'roos have always been portrayed as two guys living together and doing stuff together, you could always consider them as just being "close friends". I think Rick always wanted them to be what you wanted them to be up until now, and by doing so and actually introducing them as an actual gay couple he's contradicting what he said and kind of "reinventing" their characters completely IMHO.
It is disappointing because it gives the impression he's betraying his own principles and ideas.
Off to a good start.

Also it's not reinventing with the roos because they've been a gay couple since at least 2012
