Awkward Zoned Part III

I'm not sure if we know that she took it back, or is holding it for Quinn and intends to hand it back to her. From the stance of reluctantly accepting the position of wing girl, appearing to be the owner of something Quinn doesn't want to draw attention to would be part of that role.

That One Guy

Well the title a few comics ago WAS "Self sacrifice". She looks like she feels left out, but in that particular comic, it seemed like the figured it was for the best of Quinn's happiness. Hopefully Quinn will look to include her, rather than exclude like she did Ellie with the movies.

Feels to me the whole "taking the Harley Quinn doll back" has to do with how Quinn reacted to Ian's whole "I got dragged here, this isn't my thing" type statement. She came back with "I don't normally do this kind of thing" which just totally blew off the fact that her and Pumpkin where both comic book fans totally geeking out a minute ago. So maybe Pumpkin is a little sad that her new friend has reverted to the old "I'm too cool for comic books" routine, thus destroying all that bonding done over DC comics earlier? I'm kinda new to the Patreon thing, so ....

I really like Pumpkin sometimes. I also can vouch that it can be a lot of not-fun and very sadness-making when you've observed enough of others' mistakes to have the wisdom to recognize and do the right thing when the situations come around to you.

That One Guy

Asking if he's imposing suggests Ian is proposing joining them in their activities. An explanation of who Pumpkin is would be part of the reply to that. Pumpkin is in the spot of wanting an emotional connection. She doesn't feel comfortable with her family or Ashliii & Bubbles, and Quinn was at least friendly and helpful in return. So, aside from any question of romance, I'm sure Pumpkin doesn't appreciate losing Quinn's time. However, jealous of the intrusion or not, she didn't hesitate to do the right thing and help Quinn out.

That One Guy

Yes. I'm confused. How did Quinn get to "She's my roommates sister" from Ian's "Ok, is that imposing" statement? Or is this the proverbial flub up of the small talk. Did Pumpkin shoot herself in the foot? But she's still referred to as, "The Shadow" so yes, I suppose that the feels are along the lines of being snubbed once again in the sisterly manner. Ian is substituted for Herb, and introspective thoughts turn to inner turmoil and increased self isolation.... I hope not. Pumpkin is a smart kid to be well balanced so far. Waylaid by Katrina (that B*#&$@*#@&), ego slapped by Ashliii. Have Pumpkin, Ashliii and Bubbles gotten back together at the lunch room table yet? Or even the bus for that matter?

Mr. Blue

That kind of sucks. But unless Quinn totally torched the inroads that Pumpkin made, there is going to be some conversation along the lines of WTF?

Mr. Blue

The third panel is so frekking sad. Also, good on you Rushe for giving out advice were people also sometimes forget to ask for it.

Awww, dem third-wheel feels.

Oh boy... We'll see if the Buckingham temper flares up or if it just makes things awkward from here on out. Hopefully things turn out okay O.O

I saw your picture post. haha

"I'm fifteen" *steve suddenly in another state*

Holding the Harley doll was a nice touch, since the both of them pretty much have unrequited situations they're in.

"Just" her roomates kid sister. Ouch, all that bonding torched. At least Eagan acknowledged her hoodie wearing prowess.

I think she had a feeling...

Awww...poor Pumpkin getting pushed aside.
