Making Amends

You know it's like that thing when someone you really don't want to talk to insists on you having a conversation with them. Those people just oblivious to the fact screwing you over in the past left a miserable impression and maybe they lost all rights to a relationship with you. Yeah...

Wow, talk about agression! she sure knows how to threaten someone!

Are you referring to her more habitual facial expression or following your avatar (Ardent from Alice Grove) and appreciating the first time the camera panned down to her butt in this dress ( <a href="http://www.alicegrove.com/post/103178472649/17-comics-in-our-first-butt-joke" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.alicegrove.com/post/103178472649/17-comics-in-our-first-butt-joke</a> )?

My assumption on that is that Ellie, already shown as the desperate instigator of Monopoly games in <a href="http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/small-town-saturday-night/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/small-town-saturday-night/</a> , may have also decided upon the need for titles. I suspect the girls might've started with the titles when Herb started "losing it" as Ellie put it and possibly starting nicknaming them (like calling Ellie Lightning Bolts or Anise the Goofy One).<br><br>Ginger would've likely been old enough not to be as concerned at that point, and Tarra's towering self-confidence wouldn't have cared. Anise seems to be on a different wavelength than the rest and Juniper just tunes out. So that's where I'm suspecting Ellie might've been the source of the need to come up with their own nicknames. Also Ginger &amp; Tarra's nicknames make the most sense if Ginger had &gt;1 kid at that point (and maybe wasn't in state or speaking with Rosemary enough to be part of the meeting) and Tarra probably had a few degrees and maybe her Olympic medals, so likely already moved out.

I had a thought (shocking, I know)- what did they call Juniper before she earned her moniker as "the slutty one"? And Ginger too, for that matter; I can't imagine she became "the one with all the kids" until at least the second rugrat. It's easy to forget that since we see characters during a relatively short period of time and they appear mostly static, that they have past history, some of it quite extensive. Who were Juniper and Ginger before they went all boy-crazy (in entirely different ways, admittedly).

I think that would be exhibiting far more foresight and care for interpersonal relationships than Juniper is capable of expressing. I can understand that you like her and that therefor you WANT her to be good, but every action so far has demonstrated (IMO) extreme tendencies of shortsightedness and self-absorption.

THERE'S the Quinn I love...

Maybe I'm misjudging Juniper, but I've got a feeling she's going to go lean over the DJ table pretend like she's making a request, and ask Ian to let Quinn know that he has no interest in Juniper.<br><br>I don't think she wants to try to steal Ian, but I don't think it's in her nature to avoid prodding Quinn a little.

See comics Juniper ( <a href="http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/juniper/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/juniper/</a> ) and Name Dropping ( <a href="http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/name-dropping/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://shotgunshuffle.com/comic/name-dropping/</a> ) for reference.<br><br>Juniper's baby daddy was Quinn's ex boyfriend stolen away from Quinn by Juniper.

Juniper was held back a couple of years, but Quinn can't let go of high school drama of a girl who "stole" her boyfriend.

Can someone remind me exactly what Juniper has done to need to make amends for? I'm well aware of what she's ABOUT to do and all I can say is that she's playing with her life here .

Trying to remember, how old are they now? Because part of me says Quinn is a tad on the overreact side, but then again, I'm an old man. The idea of being that pissed about something from highschool leaves me thinking even Juniper deserves a break. Granted, she handled it the very worst way: the "never my fault" non-apology.

Juniper may be getting an interesting new haircut if she doesn't back off.

Juniper looks mildly terrifying in Panel 2, like some sort of irritated snake woman hybrid.

Man, I have had that. Those moments where you can't even stand the SIGHT of someone you hate them so much.

I keep hoping that Juni is going to surprise us and do something to lighten Quinn's mood, but I just can't bring myself to actually believe it.
