Oh dear. What a twist. Who would think that love triangle misunderstandings might happen. What a surprise.
In all seriousness, Paul’s kinda been hitting us over the head with the 2x4shadow. Not complaining, just observing. I grew up watching Three’s Company.
OK, ignoring for a moment the insensitive use of the R-word, that’s not what Briar is. She’s not what they now call “intellectually disabled.” Maybe more “high-functioning autistic” or something like that?
But she is adorable, and she definitely needs someone around to help her with social situations.
no speaking as a high functioning autistic she is not. that broad is a derpy ass dingbat.. With cognitive impairment. Oh and retarded is accurate. I’m retarded Both socially and occasionally in intelligence (IQ 140 still have a learning disability It takes me a while to learn thing sometimes but I NEVER forget ) Quit trying to spare peoples feelings with intellectually dishonest tap dancing around words you think are problematic because some one told you otherwise
You have hit the Nail on the head *Old Wolf*, I have been working in this field for 20+ years now and they have recently gotten away from the term “M.R.” for the other that you mentioned, although I don’t think she is this or doesn’t appear as Autism. I will just have to see what Pab has in store for us.
All right, so I’m not quite sure what all this comment is trying to say, but I can tell by the abusive language it’s meant to communicate dissatisfaction.
I have a handy guide for you, so you can communicate better on the internet in the future instead of sounding like a 15 year old lost on the internet.
Step 1: Reflect. What are you not enjoying? Do you enjoy it at all? Are you being held at gunpoint to stay here?
(Now step 2 is up to you. You can do one or both! Such whimsy)
Step 2a: Create constructive criticism to let the creator know what you are and aren’t enjoying. You may or may not realize at this step your criticisms are childish and could be kept to yourself based on how helpful you can phrase the problem you’re having.
Step 2b: Go and do literally anything else. The internet is vast, but real life is so much more invigorating. Maybe go study the color of the leaves this time of year.
Uuuhhh, wow. She can’t even tell that she’s still in school, and not at home? She’s not really functional at all, is she? Poor thing definitely needs caring friends.
When Monica was the Main Protagonist of the strip, we used to have a running gag that started with “Wapsi Square, come for the Boobs, Stay for the xyz…” where ‘xyz’ was whatever interesting subject was the main subtext. In my case I’d often end it w/ ‘stay for the knowledge’…
In this case, despite the obvious eye-candy, and in addition to, there is more than meets the eye here. Both Figuratively and Literally, and from my fellow square-heads too boot…
I thinking she may be more high functioning savant mixed with cliche airhead.
She clearly has some gifted ability, signaled by her spotting room numbering patterns a few strips ago.
That being said, I feel like a pretty grave injustice is being done to the savant archtype by the choice to mix it with the “cliche airhead” tropes. It comes across as a bit insulting for a webcomic that has attempted to make realistic characters whose quirks are deeper comedy fuel
Too early to make a final judgement yet, but yeah, first impression on character design is…questionable for sure.
…Oh, SHIT.
I think you mean, OH SHIRT!
Could not have put that better myself…
But, if they DO head to Mucho mocha, will we get to meet Briar’s sister?

It’s a high school in Japan, how could there not be anime rom-com misunderstandings?
Shawna is a smart person. Cas will explain and then everything will be alright. This is not an anime and Shawna is not Tsundere.
What he said. Though it does look pretty bad initially.
Are we sure about that last bit you said?
Great just got caught up now besides plant thingy needs be napalmed out of existence we got a r******* succubus…
And you keep reading why?
Because r******* succubi are cute from a safe distance.

Step 3: Keep your crap attitude to yourself!
Awkward~ :p
Our Gal Castela has gotten out of other compromising positions before. Remember Reginald Butterfly, ensorceled naked teenage boy?
Quick, Cass, say “Shawna, quick, help me out!“
Exactly!
Shawna: “What out of YOUR clothes?”
Uh, some help here?
Uuuhhh, wow. She can’t even tell that she’s still in school, and not at home? She’s not really functional at all, is she? Poor thing definitely needs caring friends.

She’s a comic character.
She will be whatever Paul makes of her, for his reasons alone.
She’s a comic character.
I’m going elsewhere for a while.
