Flagship Sinks

Joe

as a retired chief engineer, can confirm.

NotBlairUnderwood

Truly!

Lost Paragon

Is yuri self-care?

Jeph I've been reading this comic for over ten years at this point and this comic is one of the best examples of how amazing, fun, and creative your art has become. Well fucking done, man, I love this comic and I enjoy every new story arc. I appreciate the hard work you've put in over the years

It's a tie. Doctor Mandibles lasted five panels.

Anna L Goebel

I love this so much!

Yelling Bird

IT SURE ISN'T WHEN I'M AROUND!

Liz B-M

As a yoga teacher, I strongly believe that any yoga teacher who tells you down dog is a "resting pose" is a fucking liar.

idk if this is a calvin and hobbes reference but i choose to believe that it is <3

Krestus

Accurate

Christine Hottinger

downward dog is the fucking worst. and NOTHING else you do physically can prepare you for it. one tip if it's constantly a struggle-bus: bend your knees

Forrest Taylor

RIP to the Ensign. I don't think we've ever lost a character that fast before

KCkittysnores

Speaking as a former 38I: every garment, every outfit, every exercise choice, and every angle at which I stood or sat was planned around my chest. I can’t imagine Marigold forgetting to put on a good bra (though I CAN imagine her not having one.)

Hehehe Important engine thingy

Thomas A. Dennis

Poor balance officer. Wait until they get to the eight angle pose.

Zwischen_Welten

FROM THE AMOUNT OF DETAIL ON THAT CAPTAINS’ UNIFORM, I CAN ONLY SURMISE THAT JEPH HAS DRAWN THEM ALL AS PIRATES AT LEAST A HUNDRED TIMES BEFORE

Clever Peeve

I just started trying to exercise after years of inactivity. This looks entirely accurate.

Curtis Cahoon

But yaoi is men with men, the marigolds in her head are still female.

Miyaa

*sighs* IKR?

Matt

One of your best Jeph.

Yelling Bird

WHY DOES MARIGOLD DOING THE SCOTTY VOICE GIVE ME A BONER?

Yelling Bird

WOOP, WOOP, WOOP!

SpookyPenguin

Matrix Policeman: that's impossible...

Mad Marie

Meanwhile, a couple meters over, multiple Hannelores are at a relaxing spa by a calm seaside.

Patreonreallyletsyoumakelongassusernamesguys

I really hope Marigold owns&remembered to put on a Sports Bra, else Yoga can get annoying real fast (and it's a problem Hanners likely doesn't face and such wouldnt remind her)

Resting Pose, my ass.

Todd Ellner

"Helmsmar! Downward Dog sighted aft. Hard a stern!" "Aye-yaoi, Mar-Captain!"

Stephen Wells

We need an entire romance arc in which Ensign Yaoi Marigold is tenderly nursed back to health by Medical Officer Marigold.

Captain Button

There was a great example of this in the 1972 movie "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex* (*But Were Afraid to Ask)" [Of course, it is a Woody Allen movie, so in retrospect....]

It is, after one too many vinyasas and/or dolphin :P

Shane Wegner

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who regularly sees driving bodies as bridges of a ship.

AcheronYYC

"Downward dog is a resting position!" LOL

Bagge

I like the inside of Marigold's head, and Yoga and Yaoi are just a few letters apart, after all.

Miyaa

Press F for “Yaoi.”

Liz

Yoga is the only thing I've found that helps to quiet all those yelling people in my head :-)

Liz

As a yoga teacher that's a very impressive looking downdog - normally people struggle to relax their shoulder blades down their backs.

Lightsabr2

Engines is throwing a hard Alice Grove cosplay.

Leave Nelson B

Seconded hard

Ace of Hearts

Yaoi sailor hat

Carin Maja Brooks

Seeing the name really had me worried for a second

Out of... wow 4612 comics, jesus.... this might just be the very best so far. Looking forward to the inner minds of all characters and imagining what AI aesthetics go on in their mind-space.

Emma Humphries

Inside Out, but make it realistic.

James Roy

I don't understand the question. Isn't that what thinking is for everybody?

Andrew Mitchell

There's always the rest of this week. It's bound to happen IMO.

Matthew Holland

You must've had a lot of fun drawing this.

Carl Fink

I like the little visual joke, the Balance Officer saying she can't make heads or tails of it ... and behind her we have an upright and an upside-down schematic.

Sleepy John

Time to organize that mutiny.

Joseph Patriquin

Later, Marigold goes to relax from her yoga session with some nice refreshing yaoi, only to realize that, for some reason, she doesn't enjoy it anymore. All due to Yaoi-chan's tragic death here.

She's got speed bumps to stop it!

And it's all just for us?!

Mindi Young

Can confirm

Miyaa

I love the Scottish engineer lass wearing overalls.

Sean Kinlin

Regarding more than one of their works, perhaps. "Wrench that nut!"

dcy665 .

We have got 45%, go for it.

Carrie

💜💝❤️😅😹😂🤣 I love it!

Mad Marie

This is like a Woody Allen bit, too…I think from “Everything you ever wanted to know about sex but were afraid to ask”

William Davy

Was really hoping to see the head of the office of flatulance. Seeing as she's so panicky about farting.

Gary Walker

God help the good ship Yaoi and all who sail in her.

Ami

Why does she have a bunch of juggalos yelling in her?

Andrew

The TiTanic is sinking!

Jeremy Tighe

I'm a sucker for Balance Officer

Rosie Marie

This. Is. Amazing.

MikeT

There is all kinds of excellent here.....and probably a few of Dale's fantasies

Michael Boettger

And first mate has met an unfortunate demise.

Scott Hilton

At least she can actually do downward dog. Good for her that her spine is not a question mark.

Thisguy

Bwahahahahaha. This is awesome.

BobC

I'm just wondering how far up her top will slide...

Leaflemming

This is my favourite strip for quite a while.

Joseph Bonnar

Reminds me of my brief time doing yoga... Not fun.

Anthony Gaglianese

Ahh, to be able to serve on the good ship 'Yaoi'. Every inner monologue character's dream. Now with 30% more Explodium!

Michael Boettger

And +1 for the Scotty reference.

Orion Rhine

I want a poster of the crew of USS Marigold.

Peter McDevitt

is what May would have to say to Dale if she caught him looking at that pose.

Jamal Taylor

Can't relate 😂

BioYuGi

This is maybe the best page in a year XD there's so many backgrounds, all the fun costumes, and the gag is fun

Obliviontoad

Eject the core...! I mean, exercise your core...

This is amazing. I love every bit of this lmao

I like that episode of Spongebob too Jeph!

Mad Marie

down, dog!

Okay but I adore all the different costumes from different time periods!

Miyaa

Pixar would like a word with you.

Lord Crusade

It's like SpongeBob all over again!
