Phone Call
At least Tripp was smart enough to know that he had a better chance of surviving his apology if he did it over the phone. :)
Next strip: The Voyeur!

lotsa this will hinge on Tripp’s persistence… and if they figure out that there was magic involved… still, it doesn’t matter who caused the wrong, Coco took the hit, and Tripp needs to lessen that pain.
and?
Strike One. Reminding the girl that she has rage monster issues. [she does have the scary furrowed brow thing going...]
He does need to explain without excuse, in person, sorry just won’t be enough.
I have to agree, this is pretty lame on Tripp’s part. He does need to apologize in person. And while I can see where he’s coming from, he did mess up by talking about the anger thing.
But I also think he’s pretty smart not to tempt the rage monster in person at first.
Aww man Tripp over the phone? That is lame, use skype you can at least see her face then without the added risk of getting killed
I guess that’s an idea. Except, do we know if Coco Skype’s regularly? She does not strike me as a particularly tech-savvy person.
I’m quite computer literate myself and I have used Skype in the past, but I have not used it for a couple years now.
Maybe next time he’ll try Skype.
If he has to do it in person i’d have Proxy with Tripp as backup she might not take it well that she’s there but it might give Tripp a few extra seconds of life
I don’t know, that seems a bit like pouring gasoline on the fire…
Wasn’t proxy sort of Cocos friend too? Might as well apologise together coco can only really hit one target at a time if she gets violent
Proxy has her own apologizing to do…
Poor Tripp. A highly trained special forces soldier, or this universe’s hulk… Shoot up some anphetamines and hope she doesn’t wait around for them to wear off before she smashes you.
Maybe Coco will actually calm herself down so she doesn’t murder him (in case she likes him).
“Wait! Don’t hang up, I have a good explanation – Medusa poisoned the punch with a super-aphrodesiac keyed only to us in attempt to sabotage Edgar Allen Poe’s position as my spirit guide!” ….click….. “Hello? Hello?”
I’m glad I’m not the one who has to try to sell that excuse!
Haha, when you blurt it out like that… I’d hang up too.
Poor Tripp, giving Coco ideas.
Haha, Tripp finishes out the comic as the only character who can’t talk.
There’s still a chance he may die of red-head poisoning.
Haha, that’s a new one for the death certificate…
Wait don’t they do this stuff over text or email now a days? seriously actually talking to someone on the phone is sooo passe…
I’d hate to see what autocorrect would do to Tripp in this situation.
Autocorrect is an invention of the Devil. Probably have him offering Coco a good tonguing and that would not work well at this time.
That would be a travesty.
Last panel hilarious. Yes both will need to apologize. Making out was alluded to by Coco to Tripp, we all know how those usually end up. Proxy was told Tripp had a special present for after the party. I hope the potion info comes out soon. Will not mitigate what happened but it will make the apologizing a little easier.
Yes, it would definitely help!
Dude, be glad if it’s just your tongue!
Yikes! If anyone would know…
ph yeah Tripp or Delia is totally going to die and then tripp is going to be the spriit guide to his and proxy;s child
Like Tripp Wan Kenobi.
Or Obi Tripp Kenobi. Death is a major change.
Indeed.
Time and Death are both an illusion, ONe need not fear the slow march of one or the coming of the other
Is that a famous quote from something?
