Like Mother, Like Daughter

the sleeper hold is no more

Tony Pink

Um, Claire and her mom look practically identical. Surely he could have figured that out by himself.

Jennifer Woodfin

put him in gaming room #4 & he can sleep it off.

Joe

Dale is overstimulated and needs to go breath in a empty room for a bit.

Dan Curtis

Dale's already carrying the mall-rat ninja sword, a sleeper hold might be the best thing for his ability to cope with things.

BrokenThyme

Dale pls, Dale no.

JacklynRabbit

Marten, we need you to send off a packet of surplus chill to Dale, stat!

Hugh Eckert

"Marlon, get the tranquilizer gun!"

Hugh Eckert

Dale has left the building...

Leak

The social equivalent of matter and antimatter coming in contact.

Daniel Drazen

"Dale? Uh, Dale? --Okay, do we still have some tranq-darts left? Good..."

YsabetJustYsabet

Although, iirc, the person she liked having casual hook ups with also ruled himself out on the grounds that he'd contributed a substantial sum to the "get May a new body" fund, in a example of personal growth for him...although I still think they deserve to fuck each others brains out.

Chris Crowther

Are we sure that she hasn't?

Sean Kinlin

How do you know she hasn't? It just hasn't happened on screen. That would imply no major life events like the start of a new relationship, but we know she's into casual hook-ups, which may not be narratively relevant.

Gabriel Burns

While we're on the subject - sort of - I'm a bit surprised that May hasn't gotten laid since acquiring her new body. One would think that would have been high on her post-makeover list.

Clinton also looks almost exactly like Aurelia. One suspects there was a strong family resemblance pre-transition.

Carl Fink

These idiots. Love them!

Daniel Rydberg

Dale no 😅

enchantedsleeper

No more than cis people overall, I'd say

Solomon Garland

Eh, was only a matter of time before he clicked anyway. The family has a close resemblance, especially Claire with her hair. Makes me wonder if, being trans, Claire purposely models herself after her mother as her ‘original model’ of what a woman looks like. Do trans people often model themselves off of a family member of the same gender they are? Genuinely curious, apologies if offensive to ask.

Thisguy

Dale somehow has less chill than Aurelia and Claire put together, and only marginally more than Clinton.

Jay MacKinnon

Didn't Claire take his job when he quit though? Did he go back?

Bill Silvia

"Rest in Deece" -May, (whispered into the ears of her victims as they lose consciousness)

Shane Wegner

"What's a 'La Vache'??" -King Arthur, Spamalot

”That is not the impression I wanted to make…..! Aaaaaah….!”

Daniel Rydberg

Oh, yes. Face first into her giant boobs. Amirite?

Daniel Rydberg

In the newsletter that Hannelore wrote it shows that Dale quitted at the same time Claire started working at CoD. I dont think I’ve seen them interacting with one another ever.

Rodrigo Ourcilleon

Seems like Dale could use a little bit of Marten’s trademarked Chill

Hawkeye

Can May put me in a sleeper hold too please?

Yelling Bird

"This is me if I ever met a Hololive talent" Dude, same. I've tried to get into some of the meet and greets they've held at conventions lately but luck hasn't been with me so far. Maybe one day I'll get the stutter like an idiot in front of one of the talents, lol.

Davkas

you are making it a bit weird, yes Dale

Bagge

It is a true fear of mine that if I met someone who's work I enjoy, I would agitate them and live forever in their memory as an annoying person.

Dan Curtis

I think you might be right. I am lousy at remembering continuity, so I asked ChatGPT if they had ever worked there at the same time. This was the answer: "As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, Dale and Claire from the webcomic "Questionable Content" have not worked at Coffee of Doom at the same time. Dale worked at Coffee of Doom as a barista, while Claire worked at the Smif College library. However, please note that the webcomic may have progressed beyond my knowledge, and new developments may have occurred since then. I recommend checking the latest updates or consulting an up-to-date source for the most accurate information regarding the characters' storyline."

David

I wonder if @Jeph Jacques himself might have encountered nearly this level of enthusiasm from a fan or two. I've never had the chance to meet our host, but I once annoyed Zach "SMBC" Weinersmith at a con. (Not on purpose, I was just trying to make a joke.) I know quite a few more prose writers. True but not important story: Neil Gaiman was the first person to follow me on Mastodon. (I also annoyed Brandon Sanderson at a con once, but I had the chance to apologize later and he was very cool.)

Carl Fink

Just as well Claire is moving to Cube Town. Otherwise things could get pretty awkward.

Melanie

There's a lot of lore to track, but I thought that Claire filled the spot created when Dale quit Coffee of Doom (#4628). Is there some other overlap?

KevinR

Dale, I'm glad you're excited but you are looming over a stranger, shouting and holding a sword.

Diptych

and this is where Dale died. ~<3
