I think if Stanley had answered it there would have a been a lot of yelling and sighing. And yowza, I drew Bruno rather fetching in this one didn’t I.
It was unusual (at this point in writing the strip) to write a non-Bruno point of view, I guess I felt this was a really good vulnerable moment to give hints of what was going on in his head when not interacting with our fair protagonista.
This was fun to write, because honestly, if Bruno had told ME this, I wouldn’t have listened to her either, and I don’t even have the distraction Stanley has at this moment.
I often wonder bout my friends who seem to attract insane people to their lives…. wonder about my own sanity. :)
Ah. So much of life is perspective. You can view a circus on your doorstep at the moment of a newly burgeoning romance as an interruption, or on the new light of morning realize how much of a joy it is.
Being a hermit living alone in a big house in the woods, 30 is a big number indeed. I didn’t want to gloss over that fact. Apparently, neither did Stanley.
A big part of daily comic writing is to write kids with adult attributes, and adults with kid attributes (the irony creates the humor). In this case it’s a trait I find terribly endearing, when a child asks an adult if the adult will be alright, to help bolster their own confidence.
Also, Francois? Really? What a funny stereotype to play on. :)
So much of writing this strip was so I could draw Stanley licking the spoon. :)
Ah Stanley, loves his privacy, but when imposed, totally enjoys some good chaos.
