Man, Rudy’s just batting a thousand these days… -_-
Anyway, we jump ahead a little bit to the weekend (they really are going to this party eventually, I swear!) as Kylie at last meets the group for costume shopping, just as Rain promised. As per usual though, things take no time in getting awkward.
This might sound strange, but I like this page a LOT simply because this is the first time we really see the four main characters hanging out together as friends… and well, Kylie who’s coming to the forefront more than even I initially expected. Also, the main characters are all finally wearing the getups in their original profiles (in case anyone was paying attention to that)… while Ky is STILL wearing that green sweatshirt…
The joke here was actually kind of haphazard. In my head, I imagined Rain trying to beat around the bush with Pig Latin, just in case Kylie was trying to overhear (not that anyone’s ever been fooled by Pig Latin). It was a funny coincidence that I didn’t anticipate that it came out with the word “gay” tacked on at the end. So, this actually worked better as a joke because it worked worse as a concealment plan. Hell, I can’t even remember the original punchline anymore. I love it when things accidentally work out like that. ^_^
As a final note, just in case not everyone’s familiar with Pig Latin - [link]
Again we see more confusing ambiguity as Ky is introed to the rest of the gang. It really is starting to feel like the weirdness we can only expect from japan. And this may sound generic, but good job on the joke. Still laugh that Rudy is like "who is gay" and we as the audience really don't have as much of a view on Ky in terms of how he sees himself. And the foreplay is fun to see as the main cast as a group have broken transcievers.
Latin = its own language
Oh, boy, the group meeting Ky? I'm gonna love this.
Also, love Gavin's Mad Giga-Kaiser t-shirt.
*Is picturing Ky in girly girl clothes and Rain in Manly clothes.* Scary~...
Not that Rain saw that though. ^_^
But yeah, it'll be an interesting time if they ever discover each other's secret.
