“Respectable behavior?” “Lodged in your brain?” Sheesh, there are things Adagio does not understand. I’d rather live with a nice healthy balance between these two lifestyles, and I’m pretty sure most people would.
Agreed. Note that Adagio’s view on the matter may not be entirely reasonable. But the same can be said of Ruby’s view as well. :)
So since Adagio is getting her potential mother-in-law all sexed up (or getting her to “loosen up” and “have fun” as she would probably put it), does that mean Ruby is gonna help Adagio start behaving a little more respectable and polite?
I mean, Ruby, by way of Peach, is part of why she is cleaning her act up a bit.

Oh, sure, but the finger bite was a more subtle tell and I like Stellarator putting that detail in there. But even from start to finish, I feel like Ruby’s expressions are her getting more and more into the idea.
Adagio is going to help Ruby pop her cork, as it were. ;)
Love the expressions on Ruby throughout, especially in the 3rd from the last (where the guy is returning in background). That finger bite is a mare who is doesn’t want to it it, but she’s buying what Adagio is selling.
That little “flutter” of her wings in the next to last is even more of a dead giveaway as to how she’s reacting.

Thank you! I’ve put a lot of work into the expressions and body language with this one.
You know, it suddenly occurs to me that Adagio and Ruby just let this complete stranger stallion who randomly approached the two of them go buy them drinks entirely out of view of their table. I don’t think it’s how this chapter is going to go, but you sure could shift this comic into a far darker tone if you wanted to right now.
Don’t do this, boys and girls. Unless, I guess, if you’re secretly a creature thousands of years old with a resistance to poisons and super strength.
You know…that sort of thing definitely reveals that a guy is the one writing this. If I were a woman, I’d likely be used to being constantly vigilant about things like that. (I could have fixed it by having a server bring the drinks.)
Welp. Just goes to show how we aren’t aware of our own biases a lot of the time.
But yeah, not going to go that dark. Not my thing.
Though if I DID go that dark, Adagio would at most feel woozy and unsteady…and if they ever found the stallion in question’s body, they would have trouble identifying it.
I will it, that followed by her carefully and gently carrying Ruby home would be an interesting and touching story. Just not a Stellarator Pornographic Universe story.

Adagio, you’re too old to be shooting those finger guns. Guns didn’t even exist back when you were young enough to pull that gesture off. Stop trying to look cool and hip, old lady.
Ooh, sassy. Back in her day, they were finger slings, I guess? XD

I mean, she’s gone this entire comic without screaming.
Oh, derp. >.<
finger guns :P
“That’s not the point!”
