Tricky Dick

Sven's hand and then Sven's OTHER hand!

Shawn K. Younkin

I prefer the "Hey, Kool-Aid!" method.

Hugh Eckert

Richard is my new favorite character, I demand a 500 strip long flashback to Richard's story! XP

Sean Brannon

I am *so* ready for that ship to embark on another voyage!

Melissa Wilson

She’s giving me Tai’s relative vibes… Not a sister, but maybe a cousin?

Melissa Wilson

Gmail LIES!

Melissa Wilson

Yes; this is certainly fact!

Melissa Wilson

Truth! They can barely withstand mediocre thrusting!

Melissa Wilson

Oh, I'm not saying she's huge, but she's more well-rounded than the other girls at the wedding is all. And I'm super-cool with that.

Yelling Bird

and just like that Sven stole her... ~<3

Mitsuki Ayane

That also explains the lack of personal items, pictures etc.

Doc Gumby

While it may be tempting to see them as closeted closeteers, I think that’s reading a bit too much in.

Philip Masters

I'm guessing one or both of them has a closet sex fetish.

Bill Silvia

Anh might have done better if she hadn’t been interrupted by her discovery of true love.

Philip Masters

One imagines Sven turning Richard’s face to the wall before things got too warm. Every time.

Philip Masters

She’s hardly that large. Just pleasingly built, for comfort rather than speed.

Philip Masters

Unless they heard Sven approaching and hid in the wardrobe out of confused politeness. Also, their genre antennae may be well tuned, causing them to realise that they were currently in a farce. In which case, use of the wardrobe was mandatory.

Philip Masters

Why were they in the closet anyway? The bed would be easier and much more comfortable. And Dora's mom said she would change the sheets tomorrow, and I don't think Richard would have minded too much.

alphanor

I didn't notice the dinosaur at first and thought him talking to Richard was referring to his crotch.

Steve McSheffrey

Better than my mother telling me my grandmother had died, me realizing if I died she'd find out I was gay at the funeral, and telling her right then and there I was gay.

Steve McSheffrey

Hidey-Ho's...

Leak

Heh. Railed. And, apparently not, if Sven was able to interrupt.

legobil

Plot twist: the Robot spa is called Secret Robotics and is located right next to The Secret Bakery.

legobil

I bet the purple haired lady is able to answer this in a few comics, or at least he would if Sven had not entered so rudely.

legobil

[insert South Park Al Gore “it’s super cereal” meme]

legobil

legobil

This is now my in head canon and no one can stop me.

legobil

He didn’t have the heart to take it from it’s natural habitat.

legobil

T-Richysaur Dix.

legobil

I think that Sven would covertly turn Richard to the wall whenever sexytimes were about to go down xD

enchantedsleeper

That diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick

Stephen Wells

I think he IS the snack.

Stephen Wells

She's of French stock, her name is Demoiselle d'Honneur-aux-Cheveux-Violettes, her family were landowners in the Auvergne but moved to America in 1789.

Stephen Wells

@Graydon Hah, I just went to find those links :) Character invented here: https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/11/07/the-spur-of-the-moment

Stephen Wells

She's apparently more efficient than Anh in arranging to get herself railed.

Stephen Wells

It would be nice for May to see it.

Stephen Wells

@Mad Marie isn't that the plot of the Lego Movie? :)

Stephen Wells

Now I REALLY want him and May to work through their issues and get back together, they've both got much better at being people. I mean, May works for Marigold now, she can *refund* him for The Body :)

Stephen Wells

Is Richard Sven's emotional support animal? O_o'

Mrpink

Me neither, although I guess it's now a guest bedroom and those tend to be pretty plain... But somehow Richard survived xD

Clifton Royston

I like the way you think.

Clifton Royston

Any relationship to Rex Ready, Time-Traveling Secret Agent Dinosaur For Hire? https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/04/04/rex-ready-the-return-of-rex-ready

Graydon Armstrong

The Hanners heart eyes on your pfp seem apropos for that comment.

Graydon Armstrong

With the proper chemical(s), plastic can be permanently joined to plastic via a process called "solvent welding".

Mad Marie

I wasn't expecting Sven's room to contain literally only the dinosaur

Charlie Rose

Imagine for a moment, though, another scenario: Steve comes to the wedding with Cosette. Marten asks Steve how boat ownership is going, and Cosette rolls her eyes and says that she's learning to live with it, but she wishes that Steve wouldn't make so many nautical puns. (Steve and Claire then begin punning together). Several strips later, Sven goes to sit down in his childhood bedroom - before Steve AND Cosette AND the pink-haired bridesmaid all fall out of the wardrobe together.

enchantedsleeper

I think Jeph broke up Cosette and Steve just so that Steve was free to get into Situations at the wedding...

enchantedsleeper

Yeah, I had to read it a few times to get what was happening xD I think his brain is just catching up to this new development.

enchantedsleeper

Bah, ridiculous, that's clearly not Faye. Her name is Waye Fhitaker. She's from Macon Georgia, she does abstract wooden sculpture and operates a robot spa and wellness center with a large green ex-military AI named Sparkles, with whom she is definitely just friends.

BookBeard

Correction: It *was* his room.

BookBeard

He knows how his life works

Bagge

Exactly, the illicit wedding hookup room

Salodni Ikkis

DUDE IT'S HIS ROOM!

Tim Keating

My thought at first also, but then also Steve..? But also, time may have passed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

legobil

Eh. I just use the app :)

legobil

They did, actually

Fart Captor

Inside her? Is Steve’s 🍆 the Party?

legobil

Do you mean it isn’t a good way to come out of the closet?

legobil

Did you have to break my closet door?

Brian Leahy

If Sven expected to be able to go to the illicit wedding hookup room without getting into adult situations he really need to rethink

Bagge

And we do!

Bagge

That would be Steve's idea of a cute nickname, though.

David Paul

That's Steve?? In the last panel, he looks like an inflatable date -- there, but not really, shall we say, in the moment. A pity, given the lovely Ms. Zaftig.

Ursus Ridens

Boxer shorts. "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!'

Charles Hirst

Indeed! http://voith-usa.com/ESL/Ray_ESL_Cache/Topics/Cartoons/Far-side/far%20side-dinosaurs%20extinct%20smoking%20cartoons-562%20-.jpg

Holly Nelson

Ey, I'm Steve-ing over here!

Alex Mullenix

We're going to make up for the time jump by spending months on this wedding. And we're gonna like it.

Alex Mullenix

Wouldn't be the first time in this room, I'm guessing.

ValdVin

Naw, those things are easy to fix, almost entirely because they’re so easy to pop loose

Magic Chopstick Games

A cigarette holder holder, probably

Commodore_Perry

Threesome?

Jose Alfredo Villalobos

BOMP

Cute_Fuzzy

Whereas wearing jockey shorts to a wedding is tight!

Sean Kinlin

Wearing comedy boxer shorts to a wedding is great.

Thomas N Wyndham

They didn't intend to come out of the closet so soon, but it seems like they're okay now that they're out.

Sean Kinlin

OR DOES IT?! Plot twist: Her great, great grandfather, Jebediah Cereal, invented cereal. She is actually Sugar E. Cereal, heiress to the cereal fortune!

BookBeard

Some people wear their hearts on their sleeve...

Sean Kinlin

Aren't cigarettes what really killed the dinosaurs?

Sean Kinlin

She's just putting the 'party' in 'wedding party.'

Sean Kinlin

For the short arms, yes.

Doc Gumby

Friend of Tai's, I *think*. At any rate, she stood up on Tai's side.

jonesnori

😏🙂🤘😌🤘

Carrie

Seriously! What did he expect?

William Cole

😲

Carrie

😲

Carrie

😂🤣😂🤣

Carrie

So Steve and his Special K?

Miyaa

Aww yeah! Big girls are fun. :)

Yelling Bird

Ohhhhh thanks for catching that

Ilana

GDI

Miyaa

Sven somehow channeling his inner Sheldon

MikeT

I am totally here for watching Sven's gradual growth and transformation. Also for this as-yet-unnamed bridesmaid and Dat Ass.

Yonatan Zunger

In fairness, they *are* in the illicit wedding hookup room. Sven is the one breaking the rules by going there alone. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5404

BookBeard

Aww, I like Sven's moment of being a cinnamon roll there. I can't think of another time when he's smiled over something that was just cute.

Uniquitous

Per Dora's comment in #5411, Richard is likely made of Lego, which would make welding inadvisable. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5411

BookBeard

Steve and one of Tai's bridesmaids

Grace Kieser

I see Steve is wearing his lucky luurve shorts

Frank Wales

Is Richard a product of Faye's early (while still working at Coffee of Doom) experiments in sculptural welding? Yes, this is a question for BookBeard. :-)

Amelia Lewis

Damn. Too bad this series is wholesome.

Killrain42

And a tremendously long cigarette holder, I presume

Frank Wales

Well that's not cereal.

Ed Marshall

Sven smiling so fondly at what must be a special toy/friend for him to still have it now is so very sweet and very heartwarming. I feel like we might be seeing a side of him that he very rarely lets other's see.

Green

I guess she is going to have to come up with a good explanation for not being in the wedding photos in yesterday's strip! 😂

Dean Reilly

Goddamn bifold doors... weakest link, every time.

Kenneth Carlile

She is so hot I get it steve

Austin DeRose

Who is the couple??

Paul Britt

Things that go bomp in the night

Mad Marie

Steve’s already moving on to this friend of Dora’s.

Andrea Andrew

She is my entire type...

Adam with two As, a D, and an M

gmail said this might be spam

Tyler Laing

My spam filter did not like the subject line, apparently.

Dave Van Domelen

It has its merits.

Rich Holmes

He needs a fedora, a trench-coat and a cigarette.

Doc Gumby

But not without Sven. This is confusing Richard, as it should.

ValdVin

Dick Rex, Dinosaur Private Investigator

Commodore_Perry

I'm sure Richard has seen his share of adult situations.

Bill Silvia

Oof size: Extra Thicc 👌

Kurist Zero

Thus answering the question, "Does Steve eat more than just cereal?"

Doc Gumby

Richard is a good name.

Richard

For a second... just a second while looking at the thumbnail, I thought that was Faye and I was sure that was not Bubbles...

Kenneth Harris

We don't have a name for Purple Hair Bridesmaid yet, but she really is becoming a big part of this wedding.

ValdVin

This isn't a cut away to Steve having cereal, but he certainly is having a snack!

Bridgette Ryan

Dammit, beat me by --> <-- much

It's Lina

Hey Steve.

It's Lina

'Ey, Steve!

TwoRavens

Awww! Avert your innocent eyes, Richard!

Vilinda

And now on the hook for closet door repairs

Zig Justice

is Sven healing his inner child with a lego dinosaur? good for him tbh

Logan Nix

Aww, that is really sweet

Tannerbot

I'm sure Richard has seen worse if the rumors are true.

Michael

Hell yeah Steve! You get some! And you go girl! Get that dick!
