It’s the oldest trick in the book… but which one of them is pulling it?

FIRST!
Very good! *claps* 😉
I’m going to hunt you down in your sleep tonight polar
Ha, I knew you’d have something to say about this. Lol
Seventy-second!
Alright!
Last!
i didnt notice how is pulling that trick, i did only look at that legs *g
PS: i hope in the next scene she is landing on top of him ;P
Indeed, the next page does take place on the floor! 😉
*Heavy Breathing*
You okay there, chum? /:-o
They are quite lovely legs. Hopefully they will be recurring.
Well, she doesn’t lose them anywhere, so I think they’ll be around.
Pedopedopedopedo PharmaDan’s a pedopedopedo
Just kidding.
Note that she is still a kid, though…
After last panel best fitting scene would be like this:
“She fall into Tim accidently and they wrestling about photo. Then accidently they are kissed (accidently) and now dad and mom are coming into Tim’s room, because of noise in there (they want to punish him for making noises) and here comes the standard scene from echii- “Oops. I don’t want to disturb you, but you are too young for such kind of thing, you know.” Then they are have red face (our monster will be boiled purple) after this and they are saying, that they innocence, but obviously it will not work (only guilty make alibi for crime and argue etc.).”
An interesting take, but no. ;-P
Yay! update! And he’s got a damn good point, she’s not scary! If I was him I’d be far more worried about the parents might say the next morning about that earlier interruption.
Oh, that scene’ll be coming! XD
Tim, we want you to know that what we were doing wasn’t a bad thing… but you shouldn’t be doing that with any of your girl friends until you’re a little older.
“Kay, thanks dad. I’ve gotta go.”
Are you sure? Because if you’re not certain of what happened –
“BYE MOM BYE DAD NOT LISTENING NOT LISTENING NOT LISTENING”
By the way, what do you mean by this being the ‘Oldest trick in the book’? What’s the oldest trick in this case? Him showing her the picture? Her pushing him down? Am I anywhere close at all?
The meaning was sort of lost in translation between words on a page and the execution of the art. It’s supposed to be that she is purposely being coy, and dropping her own defenses in order to lower his, while on the flipside, he is presenting her with exactly what she wants, fully intending to pull it away when she inevitably snatches at it.
*shrug* Probably should have just changed the pages title, but, oh well.
I see he fell for her dastardly plan. I can understand why he let his defenses down lol.
Heh Heh… yeah. It’s really hard to make her look 8 years old, especially with that cloak on. The curves! THE CURVES! XD
Wait, they are 8? but… in the prolouge…
There’s a [10 years earlier] box on page 5.
Tell me I’m not the only one who can see it? XD
There is a [10 years earlier] box on page 5
but i thought it was kind of obvious that they seem to be way younger now than in the first Pages
cute lil pouty pose
now aim for the neck! bite hiiim!
That would probably get him to drop the photo for sure anyway.
love her legs in that first panel and the last one is completely adorable. keep up the amazing work!
Thank you! 🙂
That is a good Question I would like. Also is going to be a “accidental” kiss now soon as because of this too?
No, their ‘accidental’ first kiss comes later. *wink*
So…are they going to fuck? Is this some pornographic cutesy, story driving, romantic ss webcomic? Because I can easily see her trying to grab the picture and end up pulling his pants down.
What?! No, they aren’t going to be doing that! XD They’re going to be too busy fighting over possession of that evidence.
He is Phoenix Wright, She is Manfred Von Karma. Karma must destroy all evidence, because he (in this version she) is perfect and where is no evidence, there is no losing trial (Turnabout Goodbye, if you know scene from evidence room, where Karma stole DL-6 evidences etc.) 😉
Ah my fellow ace attorney enjoyer
*A close up of Tim’s tombstone while “In the arms of an angel plays”* Good night sweet prince
He got the bad ending! Better not screw up so bad next play through!
Shes is a clever duck aren’t she
Indeed she is smarter than the average…. uhhhh… duck.
Nay I say. She is no duck but a raptor.

Hahaha! Oh man, this is going to be one heck of a week as far as waiting is concerned. Seriously, those expressions are just perfect and I’m itching for the next page.
Me too! *scratch scratch*
XD
She looks like a shark from Finding Nemo in the last panel. Also why are the comments so full of insanity and video’s? If it’s going to be like this all the time I’m not sure I can be around all of the crazy people here. I like my nice orderly and sane comments.
Yeah, I’m not precisely sure how that happened exactly… you’ll have to ask Potdad and Creeper about that!
Mostly, I try to keep things pretty concise. Hopefully you’ll stick around, there’s always room in my party!
I found the comic on Comic Rocket and I’m liking it so far so Ill try to stay.
If they cause so much trouble, why not just ban them from commenting?
Oh you misunderstand! I don’t mind their antics. They weren’t doing anything I would consider to be ban-worthy behaviour. Heck, I was joining in for a while even, but after awhile I DID tell them to relax a bit! 😉
I’m pretty lax on banning folks, you’d have to be a real serious a-hole and be attacking/slandering/bothering others to get banned.
I won’t ban people because they are having a good time!
Yum fresh meat! 🙂
Come Slip your bonds of sanity and come float with us down the river of insanity and down the whirlpool of utter chaos. With Potdad and me THE CREEPER as your guides your old life will be a passing memory.
Now now, don’t go tempting every new face that comes through here! Two of you is quite enough! XD Three of you might break the world, like moving the goddess statues out of alignment in Final Fantasy VI!
*Hands you a bound Harley Quinn in her little teddy getup as a distraction*

Now play nice! XD
Too late for that my dear demented friend. Here Is something I composed for our dear soon to be one of us comrade.

Argh….. my brain hurts. WHY MAN, WHY?
Because it is a relaxing break from writing a 12 page history paper thats due tomorrow. Also I like taking poetry and rewriting it backwards.
I’m guessing she’s going to pin him to the floor on all fours, reach for the picture, then suddenly look into his eyes, blush, and his Tim in the heat of the moment.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm…. *thinks about it really hard*
Nope! 😛
Why do people have different colored names?
Because they signed over their soul to the old high one Cthulhu
Some folks are linking to their e-mails or websites, some aren’t actually signed into word press accounts and are just leaving a quick one-time comment…. and others are my secret network of spies.
OOHHH am I a spy?
Do you think you’re a spy? 😉
If your a spy then you must go. *Points weapon at potdad and forces him into an airlock.* Say goodbye you damn toaster.

your a toaster…i’m a mongoose dog
Sweet a spring loaded monstergirl.
Tim you were clever enough to avoid telling her you still have the picutre but then you show it to her… Hopefuly you made a copy.
There are still several ways this can go.
Oh, and congratulations, your comment just now was #1000!
*party balloons drop from ceiling*
*Prepares the Carrie treatment for PharmaDan* Ok Brandon have PharmaDan stand write here in the center of the stage.
No Carrie treatment! That movie has been remade, like, four times now I think… enough with Carrie! XD
fine no Carrie treatment, Creeper grab the box of razor blades and lemon juice while i go get the car batteries and jumper cables, and somebody go get the wet sponges
woot!
oh and Creeper Ptdad I grew up on a dairy farm until my teens you aint got nothin, especially not after pregnant cows going into labor… *shudders*. Besides I wouldn’t be nice like Carries was, I’d probably pull a Whiphand or maybe if I’m really pissed a Willey Pete. *psychotic grin* I don’t sink to other peoples level I go lower.
Boy you know nothing, My tride and true home Ky i milk heffers for a living and raise chickens
