    Pepper both wanting to relax and yet feeling compelled to help, poor dog.

    once he says “a quiet evening at home” you know some shit is happening

    it’s cute that achilles’ first thought when he needs advice is pepper. I mean he doesn’t have a lot of choices, but still. he wouldn’t do that if they weren’t as close as they are

    I see that branch there. with its petals picked off chloe-style.

    pepper’s clair coming thru strong in the third panel there. not sure how logically the stairs would be the thing when achilles is sitting there sadly, but it shows how worried about it pepper is. it’s also kind of funny how good clair/chloe’s mind palace is at distracting everyone (achilles in this case) from their bigger problems and not just chloe. seems to be working as intended

    And this is why you take breaks, so when someone really needs you, you’ll be centered enough to really help them.

      I think he played “she loves me, she loves me not” with it. Worth noting that in our best shot of the flower in 579, where Chloe bitterly suspects that Mars is lying about doing it for money, it looks like it has six petals, so it would have ended on “she loves me not,” but here, where Achilles is sadly wondering the opposite, we see seven petals on the ground, so it ended on “she loves me.” Looks like Achilles didn’t trust that answer.

      Or, you know, some of the petals are not visible at this angle and we don’t have an accurate count lol

    Listen Pepper, this sucks but compared to the other existential quandaries you’ve been facing, this should be a cake walk.

    Odd number of petals on the ground, so there’s that, at least.

    A challenge in a very different territory here, Pepper. Cheer up–this is at least not going to be horrible!*

    *the real challenge will be childproofing your house for achilles in real time

    my thoughts as i read this one: achilles took his collar off
    loves me, loves me not, loves me, loves me not, loves me, loves me not, loves me
    achilles says hes confused, and pepper immediately thinks “oh geez its the literal thinking of how he takes phrases” but its just. a Normal sentence actually. not a turn of phrase! a confusing idea for achilles though, more like inner turmoil.
    “whatever they said, they didnt mean literally” but pepper says this BEFORE actually hearing what was said [assuming it was going to be a turn of phrase]
    it wasnt mars who said she “only does it for the money”, it was chloe, she lied through omission to chloe, but how would achilles know that? of course hed take it literally
    but pepper knows mars maybe kind of does Like achilles. hence him pressuring her before in That scene.. so he was kind of right, without knowing what achilles was actually going to say. hm. hm. boys night 2 indeed, cant wait to see how this goes :achilles-loaf:

    I feel like that waning gibbous is very intentional…

    K, quick search says that a waning gibbous is for expressing gratitude and sharing knowledge, and also letting go.

    Wonder if that’s something coming.:peachy-stare:
