We’re on an extended adventure with Bun-Bun outside the realms of time. A hot babe with a skimpy T-shirt is currently fighting off a horde of grey alien pirates. 😉 ---

Has anything worthwhile at all happened since about a month after Ailee re-incarnated as the fire-dragon thingie that continuously eats, and they killed the big bug-like Ailee? VIVA LA CROTCH! Didn’t. Bert was killed by the EVIL when they returned to the Kitten II storyline. ---

Of course, I won’t let him check his notes until after the ceremony… Aw yeah . . . Riff is one sexy mofo. I love a boy with gigantic, heavily armed robots. I need to get back to Sluggy. I’m never up to date, because unless I can read about six months straight, the comic never makes any damn sense. I wish Abrams had the ability to handle the different plotlines a little better. ---

Zoe! Not only is she hot, she’s smart, and has been less of a doormat lately, Besides who wouldn’t want a woman that can turn into a convient means of transportation. ---

Ian has stopped doing DoP, thank god. The new guest artist is pretty good, but Pete hasn’t given him any real meat to work with. I liked the storyline before this current one (That Which Redeems), but the return of Bun-Bun has been an enormous pile of crap. As for the OP, I’d say Zoe, Sasha, or possibly Crystal the bartender. That is, if I were a single comic strip character, which I’m not. ---

Indeed it is. However, I still have to go with Oasis. Now, the only way she would go with me is if the watch still existed and was set to have here be in love with me. Thus, there is no danger of her leaving and breaking up the deal mentioned in the OP, and if I say, “I love 80’s music”, she will try to kill [Taco](http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Towers/5227/) , personification of the 80’s but hey, it’s Taco, or maybe it’s [Falco](http://www.mann-electronics.de/falcoworld/falco-calling/fans.htm) . Which one is which? Either way, no harm done, they are dead already. P.S. Here is an Oasis storyline overview. [http://beta.sluggy.com/oasisguide.html](http://beta.sluggy.com/oasisguide.html) ---

Sasha!! I really like her. She’s a bit odd, but that fits for me. ---

Do any of the guys who have the hots for Oasis remember all the times she nearly got Torg murdered? And the way she always tried to murder his friends? And the way she murdered chocolate ice cream? (“I didn’t even know you _could_ kill chocolate ice cream!”) Seriously, even if the sex was mind-blowing, I’d rather not end up dead. Ok, Riff might not be the safest boyfriend in the world, but at least I’d know he wasn’t _trying_ to kill me. ---
