Nate goes and turns the charm on
as Rex tries to turn Trixie off
Whereas I think Nate’s got a chance
all I can do with Rex is scoff.
He’s got no chance of dissuading
the loveliest of Batty girls
whilst Nate stands up ramrod straight
and shines? He positively glows.
Cleo finds she’s met her equal
in this strangest of Human boys.
Crafty and cunning and quite wise;
he’ll never be one of her ‘toys’…
Nice back and fourth between Trixy and Rex. You can tell they’ve had this conversation before.
Rex: I’m not interested.
Trixy: Uh huh, we’ll see how long you hold out!
And then there’s Nate! Going the extra mile to give customers what they want indeed!
To my knowledge, Zeke has yet to have changed expression from one of “heehee, life is fun and I love everyone here!” since his first appearance. Look out, Jin and Benji, there’s competition in the good boi department!
How do I get the ability to summon birds on demand?
Carry food in your hands. It works all the time, so long as the birds can see the food. Just make sure they don’t leave some, uh, leavings, on the food.
Either that, or persuade them to just want to be close to you…
Retcon: How do I get the ability to summon birds on demand that are not out to steal my food or kill me ^^
Learn to sing like Snow White.
Tried singing, summoned Cthulhu, need help.
We need upvoting.
What, no god rays to go with the doves and pretty pink smoke?
He couldn’t rent the spotlights necessary for that on such short notice xD
Not even Nate can plan for instant godly impersonation.
Yeah, I guess those are a bit of a pain to keep around on a moment’s notice basis. They can’t all have business snek’s resources.
With the doves, Nate should at least have a matched set of automatic pistols while John Woo sits out of frame in a director’s chair.
Nate, you make me laugh.
Trixy keeps trying, while Rex “plays” hard-to-get.
And, Clem wants to continue the review. I wonder how she’ll react when she takes that first bite.
I am thinking she will start singing one of Leonard Cohen’s more famous songs, Hallelujah. Or maybe the version by Handel.
Heh! Clementine asks Nate to put on a show for the camera, and is surprised that he shows off. Was that a bit too “authentic” for you, Clem?
Nate isn’t one to pass up an opportunity to mess people when given the chance.
What do you think he’ll be doing in 10 or 20 years, professionally?
Negotiator, politician, used car salesman, under cover reporter, actor…. Plenty of options so no idea.
Those are all good options! Perhaps working with Cleo as her marketing director or in charge of researching their competition and figuring out ways to beat them.
I think be will do all of them – and at the same time as well!
about 10-20 years, if he gets caught.
I don’t think anything we’ve seen him done is quite that serious yet. But if he’s going to routinely do stuff where he’s tricking others to get themselves in trouble maybe eventually. And if Larissa would just learn a little bit of self control she wouldn’t be getting in so much trouble either.
Daniel here. I can see him ending up in the country’s Intelligence Services, given his already proven ability to dig up information on people. He seems to be cool, calm & collected enough for that kinda work, though fieldwork is less likely due since he considers himself a pacifist. That said, this page – https://www.twindragonscomic.com/comic/a-fair-proposition/ – shows as well as his intelligence gathering abilities, he’s physically capable too, being on the basketball team helps there. Maybe even eventually ending up as the guy who gives out the orders like in shows such as FBI, Criminal Minds, etc…
The Poor Bear getting stunned by him. XD
I wonder how long has Trixy been hounding Rexbo for a date…
As for Nate’s “Bishounen Mode,” he should teach it to Kai. The young Dragon is already adorable and looks a bit like his sister, so Kai shouldn’t overdo that technique unless he wants people to mistake him for Kaya! Meanwhile, Clementine looks more surprised than anything at Nate’s “authentic” display, and who can blame her?
Well , who will give up first : Trixie or Rex ? Bets are opened ^_^
An advise , Nate : give up to the basketball and go to cinema XD
Alt-text: Used dramatically, they’re called doves.
They’re called doves the rest of the time too. 🙂 Pigeons and doves are two different birds. (though possibly related.)
No possibly about it. They’re both part of the ‘family’ Columbidae. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/554182/what-is-difference-between-pigeons-and-doves
When I was a teenager, I read on Pop Up Video that ornithologists said they were the same bird. Don’t know if they’ve since walked back that position or not.
Read the article. It says you are right.
Yup! I went back and looked at multiple places on the internet; they seem to agree that you are basically right. I’m only partially right. 🙂
There are many species of pigeons and doves, and they live all around the world except in the most extremely cold climates. The articles agree that -usually- the bigger species are considered “pigeons” and the smaller, sleeker ones “doves.” However, even the ornithologists aren’t totally consistent in that usage.
Oops. The things one -thinks- one knows. 😉
So Nate is using the John Woo approach.
“Bishounen Mode”, huh? Something tells me Nate is not gonna be one of those people who graduates gracefully to “biseinen”.
And, still feeling bad for Trixy’s unrequited crush.
Well, you wanted to see the “whole experience”, Clementine!
What, surprised that others can suddenly go all “on camera” mode?
I, too, enjoy going over-the-top with enthusiasm sometimes!
The question isn’t when/if T-Rex will happen; the question is, “Are they a good match for each other?” When I was a teenager, there was one girl who kept bugging me to date her. Unfortunately, she turned out to be nothing but bad news, and I had to cut off the relationship later. That was 15+ years ago, but it still bothers me that I wasn’t able to date a decent girl because the bad one wouldn’t let me go. I hope Trixie turns out to have decent moral character!
Poor Miss Mini-oranges isn’t used to the zaniness of the Nates! XD
For Jesse’s Adventure: I’m VERY much enjoying this bit! I ADORE traditional dancing; both ballroom and square dancing! I don’t get to participate in that nearly enough, so I love seeing it anywhere I can!
If you make color prints of the ballroom dancing panels, I’ll be happy to buy!
I’ve been square-dancing for 35 years. 🙂 Howdy! 🙂
Oh poor Rex. At some point he will learn that when a woman sets her sight on a man she will get him. Unless he ain’t into girls that is ^^;
He might have a chance of escape, but she don’t strike me as the type that gives up 😉
I just hope she’s actually worth his time. There was a girl who put her sights on me as a teen, but she turned rotten. I’m glad I cut myself loose when I did, even though she tried to stop me.
Ouch! Yeah been there. It can’t be very harmful for a person to end up with a bad partner.
Trixie is playing the long game like Leonard Hofstadter or Amy Rose. Just wear down their will until marrying you is the only way to end the game.
Or ChiChi.
Chichi didn’t wear Goku down though. She just reminded him that he promised to marry her and he just went with it
Bishonen mode looks suspiciously like John Woo mode. Hope everyone brought their guns.
He may look human, but Nates a Mythical as well isn’t he/
