“You love me? Already?” “Well, since the readers feel like every strip sucks years off their own lives, I figured we should probably try to move this thing along…”
P-1: Everyone is left wondering why the window pane misses the kids.
P-2: After spending an entire night out with her, Gil finally wants to add to the conversation, if she ever stops long enough to get a word in edgewise.
P-3: I’ll see your bedtime stories, and raise you a chance to move up from “just my mistress”.
Beth must have been wondering what was going on when there was 3 minutes of silence between P2 and P3. And nice of her to take off those big earrings, but leaving on those clanky bracelets to sleep? Unless there’s another use for them. And speaking of another use, another use for your browser is to go read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Beth has kids who like Cervantes as a bedtime story? Once again I’m confused.

Either Gil’s about to propose to that Beth as the new Mrs. Thorp, or propose that he takes her ana1 cherry…

Athena
All I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled
And she’s the reason
Just one word from her
And my troubles are long gone
But I think I’ll get along
She’s just a girl
She’s a bomb
She’s a bomb
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
She’s just a girl.

Isn’t Jami a little old to be read bedtime stories?

Join us tomorrow when a surprised Beth tells Gil that this is a fun thing. What am I thinking? It won’t happen until sometime in October.

126 chapters! Say Emilmimimi has the kids 2 nights a week, that’s 6 months worth of reading. Beth’s Scheherazade strategy has paid off.

Beth is fantasizing about someone else while Gilpa exposes his “feelings”; must be why the Memester left him.
