"meat people" at least it's better than Pintsize's euphemism

jimfromtx

I think that's less about his legs, and more that the creases in his pants were drawn kinda odd.

Darla Donahue

What's up with Elliot's legs in panel 2? is he a squid?

Streb

Snazzier chassis shenanigans is my guess. Though you also have comic 4185 where they're chatting with Roko and Melon, and they have square bubbles. Adapting to whichever company is present maybe.

Why are Yay’s speech bubbles round?

David Howe

If yey isn't aware of everyone in two blocks, including their current heartbeats and blood sugar levels, I would be surprised. Or maybe they only have that level of awareness of dogs?

Shawn K. Younkin

LOL- Smelliot!!

Steamin' cup o' nut-wet, now with double the orcus chunks!

Aw, poor Smelliot. Yay, melon! And yay Yay!

Bagge

Beeps, probably. Most awkward that way

Vianki Bruenderman

This would explain so much.

Jason Denen

Is Melon in fact a dog driving a humanoid drone?

Sleepy John

So, which AI gets to bathe Eliot in tomato juice?

Kinda Squirrely

Roughly 5 feet, by the looks of it

Sleepy John

Eliot muses that he's never seen an AI who was into goth culture. Yay informs in that he hasn't seen nothing yet.

Sleepy John

Does Melon chase frisbees and chew on slippers?

Like "Skippy's List"!!!!! This is an amazing and hilarious idea!

Jaysyn

We need a "Things Melon is no Longer Allowed to Do" supplement.

Drakoo Dreamer

Elliot was 2 seconds from tasting space death laser!

David Pipes

"Melon, no!" would be more apropos. Even apposite. Applicable, too. ...I can do this all day, Jeph... :-)

kaitou

Guess that idea was skunked.

Douglas E. Smith

Soon the comic will be re-named, "No, Melon."

Evgeniy Semyonov

It's inconsistent. Probably different bodies have different speech processors? For example, round bubbles in their first appearance: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3391

Doesn’t Yay normally have square speech bubbles? https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4185

Laura-Kathleen Redman

Does Melon have a pet hedgehog? <3

Matthew Van Gangelen

No Melon.

Anne Welborn

Oh please keep making me smile Melon.

Lil Dodecee

Melon reminds me a lot of the old Pintsize. More goofy than perverted though. I ship Pintsize x Melon c'mon Jeph

Michael Boettger

This is Yay's first recorded encounter with meat people since that time at CoD, isn't it?

PixelThis

And why would Yay be the one to go out and get them?

R L

Melon.

Bagge

So pure

Bagge

Well, what DOES Melon want with a dozen mealworms?

BobC

I was going to verb the noun "skunk" (conjugated like "sunk") to make a comment, then I realized all of the tenses were actually words, and not always nice ones. Decided to pass on that idea. But it was the only one I had. Now I have nothing else to say.

awgiedawgie

Or perhaps Melon <i>did</i> ask Roko to get them, and Yay volunteered to go in her stead. Although, it <i>does</i> seem that Yay has become pretty good friends with Melon, even if they didn't mean to.

Chuck Dee

Brun still has to get on.

Fart Captor

He's sad about scaring the skunk that sprayed him. He's truly the ultimate cinnamon roll

Tinwhisker

Elliot was nowhere near death. Yay is scary for what they *could* do, but ultimately harmless to anyone who doesn't pose some kind of risk to themselves or possibly someone in their slowly growing friend circle. Everyone else isn't worth thinking about.

Nulgar

We all think you're a bear, Elliot.

Ryan

More like midnight snacc, amirite?

Bryan Stopp

Yay! running errands for Mellon... 😍🥰

Czarzhan

That particular body literally had nothing better to do.

Sorastro

If Yay is willing to get them, I imagine that Roko has something to do with it. For example, Yay stepped in to keep Melon from asking Roko for them.

Populuxe

What impresses me isn’t that Melon wants mealworms in the middle of the night, but that Yay is willing to go get them.

Joseph Bonnar

By the way, Melon is still a genuine cute lunatic. :)

Joseph Bonnar

Jeph, thank you for a good laugh now and then. And Melon? No rubbing Clintons ship mate, that vessel has sailed.

midwestmutt

What sort of tea trip would that send Melon on?

Miyaa

Love is never having to question the need for mealworms at midnight.

z

Yay and Elliot meet! Wacky buddy comedy ensues, Yay gets Elliot into trouble, Eliot saves him, explosions, we finally meet Geisha!Yay and FemmeFatale!Yay, and nobody knows what's going on but Mellon. Maybe.

Michael Boettger

Oh wait. Just caught the shoes.

Michael Boettger

Yay is completely desaturated in color, aren't they? And just guessing, the mealworms are for Melon? And Northampton has an all night bait and tackle shop?
