The worry about the convo is usually a lot worse then the convo though!
Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
And then Peanut runs home, never to go on dates again. The stress of the game is just too much for him.
I also get a kick at seeing Tarot having surprises here and there. You figure she would be prepared for this, but I personally think she left the spoiler charts at home. =3

Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
So either they really can just understand dogs or Tarot is using some kind of psychic projection thing. Both of these, again, make me question exactly why Tarot let Max and Grape go without at least informing them about this.
Also I'm guessing that it has to do with the game ending in a year, Or that the whole reason she started the relationship with him is to help Dragon win the game.

Okay okay, I'll admit, the alt. text pretty much proves that dogs can talk but cats can't.

Wasn't the last time the Game was mentioned was back when the comic wasn't colored?
"Living is Hard Dying is Easy"

I thought the game wasn't a thing anymore...
THE GAME however, looks like some of the speculation was right, what sort of juicy details will be revealed?

Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
Huh, took a second for me to realize what game Peanut was thinking. Oh, well, I typically don't remember trivial details.
And Tarot, do you really think it was a good idea to bring up something like that on a date? I'm not sure, but I don't think it's recommended to let your boyfriend know that something really serious will come up at the beginning of the date.
Love her reaction in the last panel, though. It's like she's seriously starting to notice what she'll have to put up with.

Yeah, it seems Tarot is not omniscient, as for the game, Peanut actually thinks she is talking about this game.Xane wrote:So she can see the future but doesn't see that bringing it up at all already ruined part of the date? Also how much does Peanut even know about the game, Dragon basically told him "that's a story for another time" during We're Snowed In.

Tarot: "So yeah, the Spirit Dragon is fighting another spirit, and in order to win, I have to beat the other spirit's main lackey, who happens to be King.
I need you to help me get a head start by breaking King's legs."
Peanut: "Okay! : D"

Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
This is the second witness to Tarot talking who just happens to be wearing 'Dragon Green' clothes.
In matters concerning 'the game'
Tarot is a newcomer without knowledge
Nothing, once admitted, can be the same
and it doesn't work to her advantage.
Thinking of the game means you'll lose;
a fact Tarot has now acknowledged.
It's the worst term she could possibly use
It's no wonder she's embarrassed!
There's only one little old lady here
shushing the dogs in the cinema pew
She's wearing some familiar gear
It's got kind of a... Dragon Hue?
There's nothing to stop Tarot talk of the game
but is the Dragon watching all the same...

Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
At first I thought that woman
To a chinese granny stereotype,
But now, as pointed by the welshman,
The image of the dragon I cannot wipe.
She does seem to carry,
Right there, over her head.
A tiny serpent, green and creepy,
On this, some light needs to be shed.
This an obvious foreshadowing
O weird stuff to soon come.
They better start quickly revealing,
Ere our interest be long gone!

And just like that, one online comic author made so many people lose the game. And I was going going on months without losing.

Either Tarot is using Jedi mind tricks on the population, or Gallifrax is definitely NOT like our universe. There's no way they'd get away with these kinds of shenanigans in a universe with this high a reality level.
More like the universe of Disney and Bluth.

Re: 2013/08/05 - Callback Theater
Technically, no we have not. Especially since Tarot wasn't specifically mentioning 'the Game' social game. You only lose if you suddenly think of the social game. Then you've lost. Also, blatant baiting people to think about the social game doesn't make them lose it either. You can only make them lose using guile, for instance, suddenly going "You lost." out of nowhere. Now, Peanut did lose because he thought about it instantly and panicked. That my friend is how you lose.
By the way, after reading that and you instant panic thought about the game, then yes, you have just lost.
