In her own way, Maggie is as good a problem solver as Billie. But I’m certain that Billie wouldn’t have put the Sentai in bed then immediately dragged the covers off him in panel 5. JAIL FOR MOTHER.
I sure hope she has that phone plugged in to a charger
This necessitated careful consideration of her left breast, but it does appear that there is at least a cable attached to the bottom of the phone. So she might be able to wake up to her alarm.
No lightning bolt Ray, no charge
Grateful for the comments section (and Mr. A) cluing me in about what was supposed to penetrate my dense head in the final panel.
It is a far too little known fact that mobile phones (no idea whether this holds for smart phones as well, but it should) can be switched off completely and will still do the alarm clock thing while not intermittently talking to the next cell tower (in case you are worried about Watt-power RF while sleeping). Running out of juice in that state is much more unlikely since not much more than the clock is powered then.
So you’re saying I looked at her breasts for NOTHING?
Not carefully enough, I say. The line you mistook for a cable appears to be one of Maggie’s arm tattoos.
Are we being shown those apps for a reason? Should I know what Gorogoa is? Why do I worry that DADDY is real and if I google it I will be unnerved?
Oh just noticed that there is an Instagram tag on there… you know… if you did an Instagram for Maggie drawn as if it really were her Instagram, that would be popular I bet…
Don’t do that IG is terrible don’t feed the monster
But it would be popular
Gorogoa is a visual puzzle/story game that I assume is included just as a “shout out” from a fan.
I think we’re supposed to be looking at how low the charge is. I suspect the alarm will not be going off.
Nice fanservice today. Good work JA!
This is why I’m your favourite mangaka
Only 27 strips left. I’m not a “glass half full” kind of guy.
Let’s hope that John is not an engineer. Namely of “glass is overdimensioned” type.
I’m afraid the battery will low and Maggie will be found in the morning by Mrs. Covis, sleeping hugging naked a Japanese superhero. And if it’s really a 13-year-old pilot… This is not going to end well for Maggie.
If she’s concerned about wandering probes, wearing, you know, CLOTHES of some kind to bed might have been worth considering. Oh well. 😉
You can’t share body heat and wear clothes at the same time. The human body is very tricksy that way.
I was thinking this too. Very quick to jump to the we must be naked solution. Though to be fair when it is past midnight I’m not the clearest thinker either.
You’re right. If I had found a human wasp thing, getting naked with it would be quite low down my list of options, no matter how cold I thought it was
bzzt bzzt
Do I want to know what that “Daddy” app is? Dating app or Ask Jeeves descendent? 😀
Steeple is quite educational, learned what “three-line whip” means today. Also got to fill in some additional details on my (completely platonic) Mental Map of Maggie’s Tattoos.
She’s so….trusting.
Gorogoa yess!
You want to transmit heat then shuck those clothes and get close under a blanket. Best and fastest way to get to body temperature.
