Thank you for continuing Cubetown storylines! I love it!

Did I miss someone else already posting this?… https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QrGrOK8oZG8

Someone has to be the adult. Might as well be Marten.

Opus the Poet

Something Marten and I have in common. It was even noted by law enforcement when they were explaining why they were following me home from work. "Son, you're an idiot magnet. We just need to follow you for a couple of days and we have our ticket quota for the month."

Charles Hirst

I came here to say this... If it were Liz's job, she's not doing it very well. 3 hours late, Liz? That's shameful.

awgiedawgie

The revery alone will do.

adrian koren

This has been a sit-com since the very beginning, with emphasis on the sit...

alphanor

Marten. Marten Marten Marten. MORTON.

ValdVin

A scoop of kids to add the spice

TV4Fun

Moray, you are absolutely not the person to be talking like that, lol

AlexKorobeiniki

It takes a lot to make a stew A pinch of salt and laughter, too A scoop of kids to add the spice A dash of love to make it nice, and you’ve got Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many Cooks Too many

Josh Moberly

A pinch of salt and laughter, too

Josh Moberly

Or knock over a small plastic cup of water

Jason Wotzko

Also a bit randy and makes ribald jokes in French «Ooh, tu as touché mon gros bouton!»

Miyaa

That would be cool. Unfortunately it would spoil the (potential running) gag in the comic of course. Same as my suggestion. 😅

Morganna

Maybe she would like to kick a small plastic trashcan...

Hugh Eckert

Service!

Hugh Eckert

As I recall, Moray didn't seem especially interested in sex when the subject was raised by a misunderstanding, though she wasn't offended either. She just pointed out that she's not certified okay for oral use (ooh matron). I don't get the impression she has an actual libido, even if she also doesn't have inhibitions.

Philip Masters

Gently simmer, I imagine. Boiling sounds dangerous for her.

Philip Masters

That's fascinating BookBeard. So, the opposite of trolls then?

David Durant

It is their pleasure to open for you, and their satisfaction to close again with the knowledge of a job well done.

David Durant

Knowing Cubetown, the door is sentient and you just have to ask politely.

BookBeard

Cubetown’s lofi girl. All that’s missing is the chill music.

Miyaa

What if he forgets his keys? Or maybe Cubetown is sophisticated enough for a biometric security system?

Miyaa

Or, maybe a neon/electronic sign that's tied to the main door lock? Something that he would always do to open the store (and then reverse to close up) that would trigger the sign turning on?

Matt Pedone

Jeph, currently writing the longest-running sitcom on the Web :)

Stephen Wells

That could be dangerous, Byron. She'd almost certainly spring a leak.

William Cole

It takes a lot to make a stew.

TV4Fun

"literally"

allanfranta

Moray may be more uniformly cuddly, but I would still swoon at the chance to stay up at night, just to listen to Marten snore, even if it meant the occasional surprise meeting with a pointy elbow.

Melissa Wilson

Not like there's anything wrong with that.

Eric Sieck

I would like to see what an Emily brand cup of tea would do to Moray.

Byron Wright

She hadn't met Moray yet, and was open to the idea of Moray being a more comfortable bed partner than Marten. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5068

Mark

How many times has it happened so far?

enchantedsleeper

CAN YOU SEE ME? IF YES, PUSH DOOR

enchantedsleeper

That would be such a different experience compared to just smelling it.

Carrie

I forgot about Zlata. I need to see more of her; she's sweet and charmingly English-as-a-second-language. (Apologies if that comes across super-condescending.) Kind of a Latka Gravas thing.

Chris Warren

Claire might get worried about the number of women wanting to get close to Marten, but she'd just have to remind herself that that was basically the Nothhampton dynamic anyway.

Mark

Y'know, I'd kinda like to see hoodie pockets available on just about every type of apparel. Polo shirts, dress shirts, tank tops, tuxedos, wedding dresses...

Steve DeGroof

Marten is just too damned lucky. What an adorable situation.

Chris Warren

CHECKLIST.

Shane Wegner

Moray does seem to be affectionate towards Marten and Claire. But as runrin suggested, affectionate like a pet (and she does kind of remind me of my cat Skittles).

David Paul

Depends on how seductively you can say "open for business".

David Paul

That's been Marten's role from episode 1 somehow. First to Pintsize, then to Faye, Hanners... and now to the good folk of Cubetown.

Constanze Carstanjen

He should just get rid of the sign. Door unlocked: open. Door locked: closed.

Morganna

I'd bet there is already an entire research department in Cubetown dedicated to studying Marten's "Weirdo Attractor Field".

BookBeard

Well, we know she gets dumber when you stick her in a freezer, presumably because colder water is less conductive. So to overclock I guess she would... boil herself? https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5092

BookBeard

This has been a running theme in the comments ever since Moray showed up xD But we haven't had one in AGES

enchantedsleeper

It's a real shame for residue collectors. Maybe if you ask nicely? https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5380

BookBeard

I'd like to think that instead of smelling tea she just swallows a tea bag and lets it steep.

BookBeard

Nice. 😊

legobil

This comic makes me so happy

Alcaria Swain

As a completely different form of AI existence, I'm wondering if olfactory sensation produces the same kind of hallucination triggers for Moray as it does for other robotic AI cast (IE: The tea huffing visions)

Kurtis S Whittington

Great, now I have the song in my head… I only heard it for the first time yesterday, talk about timing ^^'

koalou

Professional coffeeshop shill.

Andrew

Soon after it becomes a competition to make S+ first tho

Andrew

Ol’ Boaty does a Speed 2 to come check

Andrew

The Librarian and the Babysitter

Andrew

I love that he's wearing a polo shirt with hoodie pockets. Some things die hard

Evan Embree

Don't tattle, Liz

Bagge

Dean Martin in September 1953 - practically yesterday!

Charles Hirst

Both Liz and Moray would confirm the other to be an S-tier weirdo. Neither would be wrong.

legobil

How much subjective time has passed for Moray since yesterday? For all we know she overclocks while everyone is sleeping and gets into trouble our cast is not yet aware of.

Jeff Brown

I’m honestly impressed 43 people (as I type this) got this 72 year old musical reference.

Populuxe

touch means different things to different people. for me, its more how close she likes to get to him, constantly glomping on, that makes me think she feels attached and wants to hold onto that. i could see moray as aro, but it seems to me she really wants to be around, and physically intimate (at least platonically) with the two of them. i'm also okay with moray just being marten and claire's cat lol. snuggling a bunch, then mostly doing her own thing.

runrin

Liz needs a chili recipe - that is both Tibetan & beanless.

Sparky

To be fair, I'm also poly and dying for more representation in media, but those three wind up waking up in bed together with surprising regularity

That one guy

Bravo!

William Cole

I agree with AA.

William Cole

Moray does seem to go out of her way to be touching Marten.

William Cole

I mean, that's a statement that can be perfectly true in a specific moment, but not the next day, without any dishonesty.

Carl Fink

Claire has said she and Marten are strictly monogamous. But that sort of thing has never stopped shippers before, so you do you! https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3691

BookBeard

Fun fact, they're ALL s-teir weirdos. And I'm here for that 100%

Andrew Mitchell

It's definitely Marten's job to flip the sign, but he's also the one who decides if the sign *should* be flipped. So technically only he can say if he's doing a good job or not.

BookBeard

Returning to Cubetown might get us closer to finding out, actually. If Yay wants to determine the Directors true intentions, and thus whether it's safe to return, a message to someone they trust in Cubetown, a.k.a. Claire (possibly relayed via Aurelia), seems like a likely first step.

BookBeard

Zlata worked there (due to a misunderstanding by Moray) until she was hired as Claire's underling. It's a democratic worker's collective with nobody in charge, but at least the ice cream machine hasn't injured anyone recently. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5093 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5117

BookBeard

When a sentient blob Steals a gremlin's fake job That's A Moray!

BookBeard

I gotta say, I'm really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really liking Cubetown a lot. Like, I'm so happy we're splitting time like this. That being said, I would please like to know what's going on with Yay. Please. And that whatever it is, it turns out good. Just sayin'.

Mooster

Are we sure of the nature of Liz's attachment to Martin? Does our author need to bring in, oh, say, Clinton* to worship her? Also, I'm having trouble imagining a Cubetown cafeteria. Have we seen it? Given the state of Cubetown, might it be, well, odd? *Sorry, Eliot, for the drammer.

Ursus Ridens

So really, the Director wanted to hire some Parents for Cubetown. Marten and Claire are an....interesting choice, but not one without merit.

MikeT

They already have one.

Ursus Ridens

Ooh, a cafeteria. Hey, I bet I know a couple of weirdos who have cafeteria work experiences from Northampton, 🇺🇸. (They probably also know what to do when blood is added to the food.)

Miyaa

Same reason the T-1000 didn't leave liquid metal droplets everywhere. All of the goop, wherever it may be, finds its way to Moray.

Michael Steamweed

I'm suspectin' she ain't hired. Just a regular. THE regular (the only one there).

Michael Steamweed

Why does it have to be just one S-Tier Weirdo? Why can't it be everyone in my group??

Michael Steamweed

Ya know, that's a trio I hadn't thunk of before now. But since you mention it.....

Michael Steamweed

It literally is not her job. I'm not sure whose job it is. Maybe Marten's. Maybe no one's? :O

Michael Steamweed

Same. Not even sexual reasons. I just think moray enjoys the thought of being in one

Egos

Oh, Lord, the Director doing a wellness check! A boat-sized tentacle comes out of the ocean, right through a window, lightly tapping on Marten's shoulder. He freaks out every time. :D

Michael Steamweed

Oooo baby ♥️

Holly Nelson

Depends on if this is a euphemism, I think

Adarsh Nednur

She’s in love with both Claire and Marten.

Andrea Andrew

I’m sure we could set up regular wellness checks for the open sign between Moray, the Director, and Ol’ Boaty

Magic Chopstick Games

Can I have a goopy girl to make sure my sign is getting flipped?

Populuxe

It would make sense if she had to powder herself several times daily

Mia Augustson

The Liz/Moray Field is a major test of Marten's Chill Zone.

Doc Gumby

If it's Liz's job to make sure that the sign is flipped, she needs to get more serious about it.

Dean Reilly

No, I really think she doesn't understand what a "crush" is on a fundamental level

Zig Justice

Just checking. Did you mean "too naïve not to have a crush on everyone?"

Mia Augustson

Three distinctly different and keen goblin faces today on Liz.

ValdVin

Shipping the Martin/Claire/Moray polycule harder than ever

That one guy

If everyone that you know is an S-Tier weirdo, does that mean that no one is?

Sammitch

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!

Shawn K. Younkin

Ah. So she's non-Newtonian then

Mia Augustson

do you think she's got that sort of hydrophobic powdery feeling that those weird gel toys you cant hold onto have?

runrin

what exactly is her job?

Brendan Luster

Compared to the gobin, Marten is a giant-sized silly.

Celine Chamberlin

It's like the skin that you find on custard if its left uncovered

Polymathic Man

I'd say Moray has a crush on Marten, but I'm pretty sure Moray is too naive to have a crush on anyone

Zig Justice

Liz might enjoy a recreational table flipping, but a plastic one

Jason Wotzko

Liz doesn't want to lose her excuse to hang out with Marten

Jay

And now that song is stuck in my my head again 😂

Daniel Burnett

I want Moray arm hugs now.

Joel Bateman

It's the goblin's job to flip the sign!

John

How does she not leave residue all over everything??

Mia Augustson

still incredibly hopeful for a marten/claire/moray polycule, or at least for moray to hook up with them sometimes. ok. thanks.

runrin

Marten and Claire seem to have kids now.

Orion Rhine

These two need a sitcom.
