Page 11: Awkward
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007Nothing much happens in today’s page, but there’s some good stuff coming up soon!
Oh, and when you comment on the page, DON’T USE THE LESS THAN SYMBOL (<), because your post will get cut off after that. This usually happens when someone makes a heart, usually while saying “I <3 Parker!” All that would show up in your post is “I” and that’s it! I don’t know how to change that, so just avoid it for now!

apparently it didn’t go after the plan. thou she does seem to like Guy…
now shes done something crazy..and guy just gets pushed into a room
March 21st, 2007 at 3:31 am
Will using the html pre tag work? If it doesn’t, I’ll say it here: they look so cheerful. Is it because Janny knows Stasia is going to break down very very soon?
Testing:
March 21st, 2007 at 3:41 am
i love the “yet”
March 21st, 2007 at 3:42 am
Well Stasia looks cheerful in Panels 2 and 3 because she’s trying to seem nice/normal to Guy, and I don’t think Stasia and Janny look too cheerful in the last two panels. Janny looks concerned, I think, and Stasia is worried/embarrassed. Stasia’s nervously smiling in the last panel, scared that Janny’s going to be mad at her, trying to defuse it. And yeah, Janny’s probably scared that Stasia is already in the process of totally losing her mind/breaking down.

Easy solution: Keep ALT pressed, type “3″ on the numberpad, release ALT:

The horrible thing about being up-to-date with a great comic is that it takes far too long (subjectively) until something happens T_T
March 21st, 2007 at 4:25 am
Oh god do I know the feeling Tam. At least with this comic, we know it’s going to be a round 80 pages(if I rember correctly), so things should be faster tan say a… 500+ page comic. Imagine my in being a big Oasis fan in Sluggy Frelance during the ‘That which redeems’ and ‘Oceans Unmoving’ sagas. 2+ years with out my favorite character! Belive me, I know the feeling.
March 21st, 2007 at 5:47 am
Did Stasia suddenly get a new hairclip? Wasn’t it star before? Oo
I lessthanthree Stasias face in the last panel. It really seems to say “Oh please Janny don’t hurt me I’ve had more than enugh trouble tonight!” XD
I can’t wait what happens when Stasia and Guy are alone in the room she just pushed him in… if they’ll ever be alone.
March 21st, 2007 at 6:05 am
Tamanegi, you have put it exactly right, the waitin is the worst part. and KC, if it’s that long, we get the added suffering of waitin those two days combined with the knowledge that it will inevitably end too soon!
This comic has such a delightful and bizarre plotline (and already such well formed characters) it’s hard not too like.

She took the star clip off when she changed out of the pink jumpsuit and into the graduation bikini. You can tell because on page 8 the hair it had been holding back fell in front of her ear.
March 21st, 2007 at 6:50 am
The less than symbol doesn’t work because it thinks you’re trying to use an HTML tag. You could always use the ASCII code, which is &-l-t-; without the -’s. </>
March 21st, 2007 at 7:37 am
I’ve been reading since day one (whoa there, missy) and I haven’t said anything mostly because I … suck at feedback.
Regardless, adoration flows in WAVES from me to both Eisu and Bobby. Stasia’s personality is fab, and I’m fairly certain that Parker is becoming one of my favorite characters in any webcomic.
That’s really all I have to say.
March 21st, 2007 at 7:47 am
“She took the star clip off when she changed out of the pink jumpsuit and into the graduation bikini. You can tell because on page 8 the hair it had been holding back fell in front of her ear.”
While it’s true she changed her hairclip when she changed outfit, the hair that we see fell in front of her ear in page 8 is because she’s looking in a mirror and that’s the mirror image we’re seeing… the hair is still held back behind the ear, just without the clip yet.
March 21st, 2007 at 7:59 am
I’m somewhat amused by the fact that both Jenny and Parker were using the bathroom at the big moment. XD
March 21st, 2007 at 8:06 am
-giggles- Stasia’s Thoughts in the last panel: ‘Oh God please get it over with quick!’
Huh. The ALT 3 thing doesn’t work for me.
March 21st, 2007 at 11:19 am
oh goodness gracious me……..*Sighs*
I love compulsive people.
they make interesting viewing.
*laughs* this is not at all how I thought it might pan out….its so much better.
March 21st, 2007 at 1:28 pm
awww… i feel sorry for Guy… well he may b happy cuz he just married a hot superstar who is willing to wear a bikini on stage… but other than tht… awwww…
March 21st, 2007 at 2:05 pm
“I can’t wait what happens when Stasia and Guy are alone in the room she just pushed him in… if they’ll ever be alone.”
They will be alone soon, for a fairly long conversation! A good one too. Looking forward to that. That’s when the story really gets going. I think you guys are gonna like it. And then when Parker shows up, oh boy.
March 21st, 2007 at 3:31 pm
If you are looking forward to it, then I most certainly am too
Somehow Jenny doesn’t look as distressed as she should be… I mean, her sister just married an unknown Guy (*g*) on stage!
@ThatOneChick: Did you use the three on the numberpad instead above the letters? NumLock active?
March 21st, 2007 at 3:57 pm
It’s Janny, not Jenny! And she doesn’t look too distressed because she’s still trying to figure out exactly what happened in general and she doesn’t want to freak out Stasia even more. She loves her sister, doesn’t want to go crazy yelling at her right now when she possibly just totally ruined her image and is now seen as a crazy person to the whole world.
March 21st, 2007 at 7:31 pm
Aw, I LOVE Stasia in the fourth panel. She looks so cute there^^
And I STILL say it’s unfair that we can’t say “I (insert heart made of less-than symbol and 3 here) Parker”! We should revolt!! Not against Bobby or Eisu, but against weird things that make the less-than symbol non-postable!
March 21st, 2007 at 7:34 pm
“Easy solution: Keep ALT pressed, type “3″ on the numberpad, release ALT:”
Does that really work…?
I can’t get it to worrrrrrrkkkkk… *Cries*
March 21st, 2007 at 7:40 pm
OMG IT WORKS NOW! (I didn’t have numlock on XD)
I ♥ Parker!! Yaaayyyyy!!
It doesn’t have the same feel as less-than-three, but at least it gets the point across^^
March 21st, 2007 at 7:43 pm
I <3 Parker.
March 21st, 2007 at 11:02 pm
I <3 Parker.
…But more than that, I love Bobby for creating her, and Eisu for bringing her to life! The talent here is just remarkable! I’m so impressed with Bobby’s ability to create such different stories (I read Last Blood too, and am hooked), and Eisu, your art is so fluid and full of life and expression — being able to capture some of that is what I strive for… I hope I suceed to even some degree </end fangirl rant>
Keep up the fantastic work!
March 21st, 2007 at 11:16 pm
I also
March 21st, 2007 at 11:28 pm
Hey, Sari was able to do the less than symbol, interesting. And thank you very much, Sari!
I’ll assume that “testing” also loves Parker.
March 22nd, 2007 at 12:41 am
I ♥ this comic. The concept and writing are great and the art is fantastic! I hope it does get made into a movie. XD
March 22nd, 2007 at 2:25 am
heh, it was I who managed to do the “I” thing instead of I ♥ you- thingie. Oh well. *goes away, slightly embarrassed*
March 22nd, 2007 at 4:42 am
This storyline is really getting good! I can’t wait for the next installment and more crazy shenannigans ^_^
March 22nd, 2007 at 8:42 am
Wait, can we do the less-than thing now?
Let’s try it…
March 22nd, 2007 at 8:42 am
Aw, I still can’t do it. ;_; I guess I’ll just have to ♥ Parker and Stasia for now, then…
March 22nd, 2007 at 11:06 am
I’m testing something.
March 22nd, 2007 at 2:07 pm
I still ♥ Janny. XD
March 22nd, 2007 at 3:51 pm
“The horrible thing about being up-to-date with a great comic is that it takes far too long (subjectively) until something happens T_T”
I so totally agree. x.x
I’m ♥-ing this so much. I can’t wait for the next update with that convo. ♥♥♥♥♥♥!!
March 22nd, 2007 at 4:53 pm
I have to do this num lock stuff on a laptop. So I need to turn on Num Lk, then press Fn and Alt at the same time when I hit the L key that is actually a 3, resulting in the much talked about ♥ symbol…
I ♥ this comic so far? Talk about awkward.
March 22nd, 2007 at 6:19 pm
“I can’t wait for the next update with that convo.”
Actually Guy and Stasia won’t start talking until Page 13. Gotta see a little more of Stasia and Janny first in Page 12.
March 22nd, 2007 at 11:57 pm
I am really looking forward to this story. It would make for an interesting film. And is it wrong if I’m already shipping Stacia and Guy? T_T
March 23rd, 2007 at 12:16 am
Hey, great comic guys! Stories something awesome, and i’ve been a fan of eisu since his days at Gempak (wonder how many people know what i’m talking ’bout)… Nyways, keep it up!
March 23rd, 2007 at 1:39 pm
What kind of priest marries people who just met, so aren’t likely to be completely committed? There’s a reason why they usually make you take a class for weeks. Is this concert in a state where you have to file for a marriage license separate from the church ceremony anyway?
Or this this the kind of stuff for which I’m supposed to willingly suspend my disbelief?
March 23rd, 2007 at 1:48 pm
“What kind of priest marries people who just met, so aren’t likely to be completely committed?”
The same type who goes to a Stasia concert, I guess. Don’t most priests in Las Vegas do this all the time? How could they know?
“Is this concert in a state where you have to file for a marriage license separate from the church ceremony anyway?”
It won’t matter either way in this story, as you’ll see. And you’ll find out what state they’re in on Page 13. And on Page 12 Janny questions the legality of it.
“Or this this the kind of stuff for which I’m supposed to willingly suspend my disbelief?”
Not at all. Remember Britney Spears’ first marriage? This stuff is extremely believable.
March 24th, 2007 at 12:53 am
is parker a men or a women?? he/she looks like a women put hes/shes acting like he/she wants to marry stasia
March 24th, 2007 at 2:24 am
Parker is a woman and yes, she does want to marry Stasia.
March 24th, 2007 at 2:29 am
Hello! Have been reading since the start, but have yet to leave a comment. Just thought I’d let you know that I adore the comic, the storyline is original and the art is awesome. And Parker is wicked, she makes me laugh. Looking forward to the scene with Stasia and Guy, should be interesting.
March 24th, 2007 at 12:31 pm
i once read in +EV that you were going to start a comic based on the the character princess amnesia is that still an idea or did you make it?
Parker is wicked crazy
March 24th, 2007 at 1:47 pm
I ♥ Parker and Janny. HA! It worked! -dances- Poor Stasia. I feel worse for Guy, though- Stasia’s probably use to the press, but now Guy’s face is gonna be plastered on newspapers and magazines, and he’ll probably get some stalkers [Paparazzi or Otherwise], too. [Or, rather, would in Real Life- that’s just speculation here.]
March 24th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
It’s “Princess Amazia,” not Amnesia! And I still plan to make a comic about her, yeah, but there are about six other graphic novels that I want to start up before that, so it might be a while. Currently looking for artists for many other graphic novels like “Marry Me” and “Last Blood.”
March 25th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
“is parker a men or a women?? he/she looks like a women put hes/shes acting like he/she wants to marry stasia”
Girls can like girls that way sometimes, y’know… And I thought it was really obvious that Parker’s a girl. Especially in the bush scene. And the fact that she has two strange lumps on her chest. XD
“Parker is wicked crazy”
Heck yeah, she is. XD
March 26th, 2007 at 6:50 am
Bobby: I love your writing. Eisu’s art is so awesome too.
I’m curious to know what other stories you have in mind, and uh… *gulps* if you would consider my art for it?
March 26th, 2007 at 1:37 pm
I ♥ the whole comic!! yay!! lol. just had to say it.
March 26th, 2007 at 2:59 pm
Thanks, Alecat.
“I’m curious to know what other stories you have in mind . . .”
All kinds. Not gonna go into detail about the concepts, but there’s a cartoony comedy involving aliens (which I hope will be a CGI-animated film), a political thriller set in Washington, D.C. (need pretty realistic art), a very unique World War II romance set in Japan and America (realistic also good for that probably), a sports drama (baseball), a real-time movie set in the future involving a trip from the Earth to the Moon and back (aliens involved in this one too, but human looking), a crazy romantic comedy (crazy in a very different way from “Marry Me,” though), a drama involving seeing someone’s entire life in a unique way, and a few others, including “Princess Amazia.” “Marry Me” and “Last Blood” are actually two of the most recent concepts. All of the stories I just mentioned were thought of in 2003 or earlier. I also created “Marry Me” in 2003. “Last Blood” came about in a brainstorming session with my brother in the summer of 2006 when we were trying to think of ideas that we could actually film at the school in South Dakota on a really low budget.
“and uh… *gulps* if you would consider my art for it?”
Looking at your deviantART now. Better than most. I’m also probably going to need a co-writer or two for certain stories, since I plan on doing seven or eight (or more) at once in the near future. Stay in touch and who knows.
April 7th, 2007 at 8:09 am
I <3 this comic so far
April 16th, 2007 at 12:57 am
i ♥ marry me!!
♥parker
May 22nd, 2007 at 5:39 am
Heyas
I’m glad to see you may have found a new potential artist (for other projects of course.. I can’t imagine going away from Eisu’s work before MM is completed). I don’t want to sound like a broken record or a skipping cd or whatever the analogy would be for mp3’s…. but I ♥ MM! (and I’m also excited that the little heart thing works too 
I never knew about that..)
May 31st, 2007 at 1:57 pm
I’ve noticed over the corse of this comic Stasia is refered to by her sister as Ana. Is her real name Anastasia?
Just curious…
This is such a nice comic though! I love it!
May 31st, 2007 at 4:55 pm
Yes, Anastasia Tyler.
September 30th, 2007 at 1:43 pm
♥. Wow, it works.
April 20th, 2008 at 11:03 am
RE: alt-3: you have to use the number *pad* (the 3/3 digit grid). the numbers above the letters on your keyboard won’t work for it. If you have a laptop, you’ll probably see “alternate” numbers written on some of your keys, often on the right side of your keyboard, that you have to hold down “Fn”, “Function”, or some other such key. For examle, on my laptop, I press “Fn” + Alt + “L” (because 3 is the alternate character for the L key), and get a ♥.
May 20th, 2008 at 8:45 am
Or you could just copy & paste the ♥; that works, too.
Love the comic, please keep up the good work!
