Your smooth lines are wasted on this one, Nick. This situation calls for the venerable Penguin method of seduction. If you can turn her into something like yourself, she’ll have to love you.
… or was that Mr. Freeze who put Batgirl in a refrigeration chamber to lower her temperature until she had to love him? It’s been years since I studied the classics.
Actually, as far as Tip’s concerned, I’m guessing that’s the #2 best possible scenario, with #1 being if Artie turns out to be not-quite-100%-gay but still prefers Tip to Ginny. I mean, either one has a good chance of leading to a boundaries-shattering meange.
Now Tip and I will be sharing a room,
And Nick is angst-y and all full of gloom!
I reassure him that things will be fine …
I can’t stand hearing an airplane whine!
[CHORUS:]
Hope they have an honor bar!
Moonshine in a quart-sized jar!
Things with Tip won’t go too far
If I am unconscious!
He’s saying, “Wilkin don’t car about you!
I mean, at least, not the way that I do!”
He’s so pathetic, he’ll grumble and pout …
I wanna drink ’til I just pass out! [repeat CHORUS]
@eddurd – at least ‘car about you’ is a typo that retains a vehicular theme. When talking about Nick’s relationships, its detailing like that makes a difference.:)
my theory is that artie was just manipulating tip in the first place, and won’t be into a rematch. and that ginny is over tip anyway. and that the resultant lack of rematches will irritate tip past his usual superpower to enjoy hooking up with total strangers. then, ANGST!
actually though i’ll just wait and read what the comic says
idk, wasnt it tips idea to have sex with artie? so artie wasnt really manipulating him.. (or, more accurately, artie was totally manipulating him, but not into having sex, specifically)
I see everybody’s interpreting “honor bar” in the lil-bottles-o-booze sense. I’m thinking Ginny means a big piece of iron down the middle of the king-sized bed.

…..yep….
… or was that Mr. Freeze who put Batgirl in a refrigeration chamber to lower her temperature until she had to love him? It’s been years since I studied the classics.
Mr.Freeze froze his wife to preserve her life until he could discover a way to cure her. I have no idea who you’re thinking of.
That could be a pre-Animated-Series Mr. Freeze. He wasn’t much of a character until Dini and Timm got their hands on him.
Yeah, it was an episode of the original TV series.
Aw, Nick, don’t be THAT guy…
It won’t get awkward until the two other women that Tip brings back ask Ginny to move over.
Only two?
It’ll only get awkward once Artie turns out to be not-quite-100%-gay and perfers Ginny to Tip.

yea, since Artie and Ginny have already proven theor intrest in Tip, if they’re interedted in each other as well it can only mean good things for Tip

(glug-glug, glug-glug, barf!)
Arrgh … “CARE about you” (and hear I was ready to make a stupid remark to Wykstrad about what kind of sex is a “meange”)
Hear here!
@eddurd – at least ‘car about you’ is a typo that retains a vehicular theme. When talking about Nick’s relationships, its detailing like that makes a difference.:)
Detailing. I see what you did there.
my theory is that artie was just manipulating tip in the first place, and won’t be into a rematch. and that ginny is over tip anyway. and that the resultant lack of rematches will irritate tip past his usual superpower to enjoy hooking up with total strangers. then, ANGST!
actually though i’ll just wait and read what the comic says
It’s true that Tip doesn’t *always* use his superpower, but the situation is just too much not to take advantage.
Yeah, I was thinking pretty much the same thing.
idk, wasnt it tips idea to have sex with artie? so artie wasnt really manipulating him.. (or, more accurately, artie was totally manipulating him, but not into having sex, specifically)
That’s not just a theory. Artie admitted it. This strip and the next one.
Ugh, Nick, persuade her, don’t try to make her decisions for her.
I see everybody’s interpreting “honor bar” in the lil-bottles-o-booze sense. I’m thinking Ginny means a big piece of iron down the middle of the king-sized bed.
That would be a bundling board.
Live steel is preferred for that in my own little reality.
Oh, Nick. Nick, Nick, Nick. (shakes head)
That was smooth as sandpaper, y’know? Take a breath (figuratively), and dial it back a couple of notches. For everybody’s sake.
