    Woah, did not expect that.

    Still, Sylver better watch his next step...

    Yeah, but at this point all Sylver can do is run to the end of his chain and bark

    I kinda wanna see a real ninja fight Sid. With a ninja sword and throwing stars and even the exotic weapons like guitars and... well you know.

    Phil knows better to mess with Sid.
    Glad to see someone knows what was going on.
    As for looking but not touching, this is Slyver we're talking about, for all we know he's possibly been cheating on Sunny, it's just now he's been caught

    I didn't think Sylver would completely get away with it. One more wrong move and he's going to really be in big trouble.

    I want to see Sylver get beat up, but I don't want to see Sunny get hurt.

    I think Sylver needs to get trampled by a stampede of people or something, or have his car keyed at least.

    Ha! Ha! Like me at a bike shop. Really though, I can't see Sylver actually making it with a girl, I think Sunny's only with him cause she feels sorry for him.

    I want to see whether Sunny has anything to say to Sylver now that it's just the two of them... Twisted Evil

    Seems like neither Max nor Sid think Sunny's as capable of taking care of herself as I think she is.

    It just occured to me that it'd be such a shame if Sunny's sharp, 8-inch claws inadvertently damaged something on Sylver's car...

    Ooohhhh, a lot of good points.

    Sid is a pirate, and a pirate can be dangerous too.

    Also, Phil's only objective is to watch, he has no true objective to attack. Also he gets paid for it.

    Sunny could still get revenge if Sylver lets anything slip accidntly.

    And that is all I can think of...

    Well, the thing about looking and talking with complete intent to touch can be okay or inappropriate depending on whether or not the person doing that is single. Sylver is not. Which makes it inappropriate.

    So, when you're in a relationship, talking to other girls with full intent to cheat is okay to you?

    I can sense that you and I are not going to get along well at all.

    Tis the nature of the game, some people like keeping the other jealous. Personally, I don't, but I don't condemn those who do. Unless they break the no touching rule, then they're just asking for it.

    I'm not afraid of you. It's me you don't want to be enemies with.

    Jealousy isn't necessary when there's trust and honesty.

    The problem with guys like Sylver is they lack the honesty element.

    Eh, he's a wolf. Cliche in my opinion. There are too many wolf characters out there. I like that Sunny is a mole. I don't see a lot of mole characters.

    I think too many underestimate Sunny's ability to handle the situation herself. I suspect that Sunny is fully aware of Sylver's indiscretions. If she isn't, then she is practicing willful ignorance.

    Either way, the only issue I take with the comic to this point is that Sylver is so universally dislikable, but somehow is still allowed to hang around. If he really is such a complete jerk, it seems sensible that the group would have rejected him completely by this point. Either this, or there is some redeeming quality of his which has not been shown in the comic, yet.

    I think that has to do with him living in the same building.

    None of the other characters (except possibly Max) is the kind to ostracize a neighbor they come in contact with every day. Though I believe Sid could convince Sylver to leave sudden-like, if it came to that.

    Right, but they still interact with him outside of merely making eye contact in the hallway. It seems that, at this point, even that level of interaction is a stretch. The whole "boyfriend to a friend of ours" thing works, to a degree, but the mileage on it will be kinda short.

    I suppose I just wanna see Sylver a little more fleshed out beyond "superficial-narcissist-jerk-guy". Maybe he has an epiphany and realizes he's fallen for "the fat chick"? Maybe he does something genuinely noble and endearing, but for selfish reasons? I don't know, I suppose I just want more out of the character than what we've seen thus far.

    That being said, its my *only* gripe with the comic, and a minor 1 at that.
