THEM

I stand corrected

Jim Feldman

Carried there by an otherwise-unladen swallow!

Don't forget aroused / near a bakery!

Yonatan Zunger

It makes us very horny. We are confused that The Cereal Week is not published yet. It makes us a tiny bit angry. that's how

Igor Mosyagin

Did that have something to do with Steve eating cereal? :/

Churchill (formerly TeaBear)

Confused, angry <b>and horny</b>.

Dean Reilly

Confused and angry are the only real emotions.

Is it just me or does Basilisk have two expressions; Annoyed/angry and Surprise/bemused

Jim Feldman

When are we gonna get that week of Steve eating cereal you keep teasing us with?

Churchill (formerly TeaBear)

One of my favourite ever QC lines- "Alice and Bob have become more powerful than we can possibly imagine." https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3379

Mark

It could have been worse. The *previous* strip could have been the cliffhanger.

Mark

I would start here: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3360 .

I just looked up the Madagascan sunset moth-- it should be NBC's new logo

Friday is two days away. 5/20 one day from 5/21.

dcy665 .

Ugh now I wish you hadn't pointed it out

at0m

Yeah, look at what his buddy Willis is doing these days... This *is* light comedic drama compared to that... :-)

David Pipes

The memories had already been deleted by Corpse Witch. Bubbles didn't know they were gone forever.

Chris Heg

I think the fact that she knows it's a stupid reaction and is already aware she's being irrational about it makes that vastly less likely. She's at the "immediately start climbing out of the pit" stage of recovery, if not the "walk around the huge pit" stage.

Clifton Royston

Wait. That's a Firday strip, right? That a cliffhanger, yes? ARGH.

Yola Leroch

Like that's gonna stop him.

Derrik Pates

If this ever becomes a series, Peridot’s VA should audition.

Andrea Andrew

What number was that. When they saved Bubs.

Matthew Van Gangelen

Also in the third panel Yay looks like Peridot from Steven Universe, and now I can't shake off this association.

Evgeniy Semyonov

The yoga pants buddies are on the town.

Sleepy John

Westhampton but yes :P

S L Hall

"Rokay", like an agreement from Scooby Doo?

2500 bells, so a Madagascan sunset moth... in Boston??? ;D

Damn... all you shippers. I read "RoKay" in Lil Jon's voice. -_-

Lightsabr2

No. But there is some lack of consistency. It was visible throughout the entire set of strips where they made the massive donation to charity, but then was not visible at all throughout the entire set of strips where they put Roko to sleep. Even in today's strip alone, it's visible in the third panel, but not in the last one.

awgiedawgie

Technically, they didn't reveal it either. Bubbles chose to have a memory gap, rather than dealing with the memories. Yay merely discovered that it was permanent (and removed the kill software in the process). Bubbles didn't know at the time that not having the memories at all just might be worse than the memories themselves.

awgiedawgie

It was a very large moth

Bagge

Jeph I’d just like to remind you we’re all very fragile right now and we don’t need more collective trauma

JD

They revealed Bub's memory gap, though they did not create it (as far as we know).

Chris Heg

Yay! (literally and figuratively) An omniscient AI is just what you need to find some hidden history.

Douglas E. Smith

Is that the first time we've seen Yay's neck joint?

Shirley you mean "thiccens"?

Simon Green

So... This isn't my favorite ship, by ANY means. But the name is SO, SO perfect. RoKay?

Joseph Bonnar

Rokay now...

Joseph Bonnar

And the plot thickens...

Joseph Bonnar

I can't help but think of the Them in Good Omens... Omnipotence and all...

We?

Grace Kieser

it's not yet too late for Yay to sidestep any questions and be completely uninvolved with how this plays out?

Mark Thomas

Roko Yay! Yay Roko? I’m so confused ...

Bill Hall

This is an encouragingly screwball twist in what was a potentially bleak storyline.

William Cole

I just KNEW Yay was going to get involved in this, somehow. They are the most likely ones to be able to recover Bubbles' memory.

Tom wilson

Dammit Faye. This needs to not be a Faye-relapses-and/or-wrecks-everything arc, we’re all too invested.

M Cohen

Yay is the very embodiment of THEM-dom.

Sleepy John

I'm sure Yay would have some answers. They would have access to all those secret reports of Bubbles' old team, for starters. But if Bubbles' previous relationships weren't documented (which would be very likely if it was one of Bubs' comrades) then I doubt Yay can help.

Surely there’s a large moth *somewhere* that needs avoiding

Jon Guyer

Hey, you didn't see how big that moth was!

Dean Reilly

Quasi-literally.

Nulgar

Bubbles' first lover.

Diptych

Yay tried to help Bubbles recover her memories only to find they weren’t so much locked away as deleted. And Faye might have remembered that.

Miyaa

Saved. Maybe. (...but maybe she didn't need saving. She seemed glum in panel one, rather than relapse-imminent distraught. Still. Surely Yay can answer some questions, if Basilisk stares at them hard enough...)

Leaflemming

First one what???

Paul Britt

I thought Yay NEVER lied. She’s growing up!

Matt Grayson

Basilisk was minding her own business and Yay is stalking Basilisk?

Miyaa

And now we see what Faye will do with her life. Hunt down and exterminate every running instance of Yay, because Yay was responsible for her father's death.

z

US!!

Matthew Bernal

And what were those two doing? Hmmmm?

Michael Boettger

yay youre basically omnipotent, why would you need to hide behind her

Tamara Macadam

Speak of the devil!

Matt Grayson

And here comes the question from Faye to Yay?

Michael Boettger

WELP
