Long distance relationships are hard. Maintaining one takes effort from both parties. Even that’s no guarantee, as the survival of the relationship also depends on the personalities of the people involved.
♪ Skylar don’t lose that number,
You should call Atsali, now, herself.
Tell her ’bout what you’re bringin’ for your shelf.

ok, so that ominous sound from last strip was Atsali’s phone ring tone.
Let’s hope Nadette can survive being in the same room with two Succubusses…succubai?…
Succubi.
Succubae 🙂
@Karen – both are actually correct
In this case Succu-babes!
Or, to borrow a term from another webcomic, “Cubi.”
That makes it sound like there are three of them.
Or that they should be more box’m than buxom.
*adds some bales of cardboard to the pun jar*
Oh dear. From that phone call it would appear they have a lot in common.
If at FAUST you don’t succeed…let her call you!
no! bad! walk out right now.
“I have one of those.”
Is she speaking about her talisman?
We haven’t seen that lately.
Would you?
I hope Skyler Faust isn’t going to be one of those “Everything’s cool, so long as you stay in your one-fifth of the dorm room” kind of roommates…
I think we actually saw Skylar in one page a couple of months ago. She seems alright.
She was in a couple pages back in December.
She might take up space for her art, but does not seem privileged enough to be that kind of roommate.
Will Nadette have competition?
Someone said “Absence makes the heart grow fonder” was about men. For women, it’s “Out of sight, out of mind.”
While Nadette loves Atsali with all her heart, I can’t help thinking that for Atsali it’s a case of “Love the one you’re with.”
I don’t see much difference in that regard . . .

Called it!

future love triangle in the making
I’m still wondering if Skylar is related to Dr. Faustus, of literary/playhouse production fame…
