#305 “Total Flop”
As far as anyone is concerned Tim totally biffed it last night, and I think he’s fine with that idea… for now.

Welcome back!
A few questions about dear Grace Dobbs:
1). How old is she?
2). Is there a Mr. Dobbs?
3). Will she have a larger role in the story?
4). Who is bigger? (Ruthless, Moonlight, or Grace?)
5). Will we see her wearing “less clothes” later on, like Ruth and Moonlight?
1. About the same as Ruth.
2. No, they are divorced!
3. Probably not, other than eye candy.
4. Tough question, but I think it’s a tie between Ruthless and Moonlight.
5. There is a good chance we will see Grace here in a little less at some point. Perhaps a nightie.
1. So she’s between 30s and 40s. She looks great.
2. Aww, that’s a shame. Hope she’s able to meet someone.
3. I’m not complaining.😉👍
4. Good for her.😉👍
5. I look forward to seeing that moment.😉👍
Wonder if we’ll learn more about Spencer’s mysterious “She” soon?
We will find out, eventually. It’s a plot point.
So, not this chapter?
Sometime this decade – probably.
Common isn’t obvious?!? Marcy jumped his bones horney after seeing Tim and Shadow… and she IS a Naughty Girl.. like many pretty blondes… and she blew Spencer’s mind …which he is STILL getting over!
“I would have heard it one way or another” – is he boning Midnight? That would explain why he looks like he couldn’t sleep a wink at all.
I assume he would have heard Marcy talk about it, considering they are talking about her, and not Shadow at all.
If she’s only kidding, she’s putting a lot of ‘effort’ into it. That some cushion Tim’s got there, and it looks like he’s getting skin-to-skin contact, too. And honestly, talking with your friend’s mom about whether or not you scored sounds a bit sketchy.
You’re right. Next week she sits on his lap. 😛
Lucky Tim.😉👍
… and does an exotic dance with milk and cookies?
Why do I feel like Shadow would do something like that?
Wishful thinking?
Theory: Noxian’s actually have a vaguely Latin accent(like classical Latin from Ancient Rome), which might explain why their home is called Nox, the Latin word for night.
I keep reading this as Mrs Boobs.
Possibly, there’ no way to EXACTLY know for sure… so we are free to picture it however we want.
Until we get some idea what a Noxian accent sounds like, the idea they have a Latin accent is my headcanon until proven otherwise.
… and HOW does a “Latin accent” sound? [Feel free to use a phonetic alphabet}
Off the top of my head, I’m not sure. It’s a dead language, but it has diverged into Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian, and Romanian.
veni, vidi, vici (I came, I saw, I conquered.) Pronounced: Vee Nee, Vee Dee, Vee Chee
In my Latin classes (Lo, these many years ago!) the taught pronunciation was “vayni.veedi viche”.
Any ideas on how a Latin accent would sound in English?(Different pronunciations, etc.?)
There’s no certainty.
In UK English in the 1920s-30s, the fashion was to pronounce Latin “v” as “w”, so “veni, vidi, vici” would be pronounced “wayni, weedy, weechi”.
I also heard that “c” is pronounced as “k”. Caesar would sound like Kaesar, Cicero would be Kikero.
Found something that tells how Latin pronounces certain words👇

Idea for the Noxian accent: A mixture of a Latin and English accent.
Æ is used in place of both “A” and “E”.(Hello would be pronounced “Hællo”)
C is always pronounced as “K”.
Words beginning with “V” are always spoken as “W”(Very would be pronounced “Wæry”), but used anywhere but the beginning of word it sounds like “V”(Love is pronounced “Lovæ”)
The “Rs” are always trilled when pronounced.
Disregard the “V” part, too confusing.

It’s not a bad name!
The question is: How does Spencer’s Mum (Mrs Grace Dobbs) know about Tim’s activities of the previous night? (Panel 1).
Did he discuss a possible “date” with Spencer, or Marcy & Craig?
As I recall, his evening’s encounter with Shadow was completely unplanned and unexpected, so HOW does Grace know?
They talked about Tim possibly becoming a man when Marcy was gonna come over to “study” that night. Spencer made a big deal about it, and she joked about some hussy stealing her little Timmy away.
A lot has happened since then… it can’t possibly be just one night.
It was back on Page 160 (that’s a lifetime for two whole generations of honeybees!).
It’s just the next day since Tim and Shadow boinked.
Ah, yes. Our favorite Human-Noxian couple have finally consummated their relationship.
A lot of things can happen in just 5 minutes, Spec Ops operators and people who wake up very late for work and the environment is not the ideal know
“It’s just the next day….”
It’s been more than 8 hours (Tim time) and yet no action from Midddy who seemed quite exercised when we last saw her (“TIIIIMM!”)
That’s the point people are making. This page reads as a continuation of page #160 where Spencer was talking about Marcy’s study visit, hence the comments about ‘last night’.
Makes me think of The Graduate (1967).
Hahahaha, classic. Brings to mind Missy from Bill n’ Ted. Orrrr…. Bulma’s mom. I need to write a vivacious mom character sometime.
I am quite wondering what means all this part with both guys. What is the use of this part among the whole story? Not really sure.
Stay tuned! 😜
Yeah, he biffed it alright. Biffed it all over her chest, her belly, her thighs, her ass…
Haha!
Get your scissors, Shadow!
Better luck next time, Tim.
I like Mrs MILF’s character already.
Man, don’t you just hate it when your mom hits on your friend
That’s why they pretend to do it.
Embarrassing their children is a learned skill & they practise it.
Public singing, dancing, PDAs for example.
