- Landon: Should we take the route through the park?
- Larisa: That’d be nice.
- Larisa: What else has Ivan told you? … That you should buy me oil paints instead of a necklace for my birthday?
- Landon: I… he…
- Larisa: You’re cute when you turn red like that.
- Larisa: Just be nice to me. That’s enough. Okay?

Okay, this is adorable. Seriously, Larissa seemed so stuck up at first. Now she’s the kind of girl I wouldn’t mind dating.
S&W is on a bit of a roll last few strips. Great delivery.
Hmmmmm…..no fire themed dress? WHAT!?
Little mistake on the second panel, should be “…for my birthday.”, Instead it reads “…for birthday”
Maybe we’ll finally get into some backstory with this arc(maybe)
@ PoniesRus:
No, that’s accurate. The “For my birthday [present]” makes more sense in context.
Anyhow, this is adorable! Larissa is great~
wow, Larisa is being awfully sweet, considering she’s such a pyromaniac and all ^^
And now we realise the true genius behind Ivan’s advice:
Landon now knows what Larissa means when she says ‘nice’.
I’m afraid… I’m afraid that Larissa is trying to experience true love, before… before something horrible happens… Remember she has some unspecified illness… I hope I’m wrong… but…sniff…
Still, incredible cute comic and with a little fun thrown in.
@ Ziggrrauglurr: Now you’ve made me afraid of that :/
But I also think that, well, as she says it, all Larisa asks Landon is to be nice with her. And I think that not many guys are actually, sincerely nice with her. Granted, Larissa’s ways don’t help, but it seems that he is the first guy to actually be just that, nice, despite how she usually acts.
wait for the school annual dance, or something like that@ DragoFlare101:
D’awwwwwww…
Aaaaw. :´)
@ DragoFlare101: like Katniss?
I think I can understand Larissa. For her all she want is a nice guy who don’t try to judge her too much and actually care for her. At first she want Cloud to be hers because unlike other pretty boys he actually an actual caring boy. She already got her heart broken before:

All she want is to be happy. Also remember, she still hid her health problems from her friends. She don’t want a boyfriend who will bail out when he find out about her health problems.
Larisa seems to have really changed from old “slutrisa.”
This is the most adorable thing ever 😀
@ Renia:katniss isnt a pyrotechnic and katniss is not a diabetic
Oh hi I’m new to this comic and I love it I read for 2 days just to finish it wonderful just wonderful
I think we are seeing behind Larisa’s public mask. She seems to let down her guard with Landon. She seems quite comfortably with him almost relaxed.
Rule #1: The girl’s father’s role is to scare the hell out of all of the girl’s boyfriends.
Rule #2: He will not succeed, because she is on to him and his shenanigans.
You’ve learned an important Life lesson, you can’t keep secrets from your girlfriend especially if your girlfriend is Larisa
@ Neil Dunsmore:
I agree. In fact, I feel a bit like I’m in that same kind of relationship. Unfortunately, my own GF isn’t really the popular kind, despite having an iPad and being a really good artist. XD Now that I think about it, it seems the only thing that makes them different is my girlfriend isn’t a pyromaniac and doesn’t look as hot when she is in her casual clothing. At least, not unless she does her hair.
Wow…why am I suddenly jealus?
AW~! Who says geeks/nerds never get the girl? Way to go, Landon!
I am surprised he hasn’t spontaneously caught on fire from turning so beet red.
Larisa seems to have discovered a way to melt things (and people) that doesn’t involve fire…
@ Erkhyan:
She is quite the firecracker all on her own.
I would just ask “what do you wan’t for your birthday”
@ Ziggrrauglurr:
I know she’s diabetic, but I don’t know of any other illness?
@ Keth:
There was a hint in the “exploring the abandoned warehouse” arc.
i guess he world qualify as adorkable lol
Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t help thinking that the flow on Larisa’s dress is a squirty flower, and any boyfriend that does not measure up suffers a fluid fate 😉
@ mittfh:
Cripes, that’s going to be a long way to dig into the archive in order to figure that out.
I thought it was just her diabetes? That itself can be a limiting thing, especially if she’s not brought any shots with her or can’t find a place to use one discreetly.
@ rallyjr:
Maybe she just has a listening bug set up by the front door?
@ illeatyourself:
@ Random Guy:
Describing a 12/13 year old girl on the early edge of puberty as “hot” and a “firecracker”… :-/
Anyway, at the risk of sounding like a spooky echo, I was overcome with “d’awwwww” by this 😀
Also, Lari in a dress? A pink one? O_O
She really is confounding our expectations
@ tahrey:
OK, my archive trawl shows her wearing several pink things… never mind. But still, not many skirts.
The warehouse arc has her being “out” with the insulin, but also using some kind of nasal inhaler thing in secret and popping a couple of pills. Hm. Maybe a heart condition as well? Or just backup meds that go with the insulin? I’m not familiar with what drugs are inhaled from an atomiser other than those for asthma, and those are usually inhaled orally…
also one of the reasons she likes Landon is that he helped her out with her impossible maths homework just to be helpful, rather than as a mere prelude to something more
@ Brothernature0: no a fire dress like Katniss 😛
You know, I wasn’t so sure about these two. But now…. you know what? I just might hop on this ship.
Permission to come aboard sir?
Awwww Larissa’s gone soft!! ^.^ 😛
Awwwww =D
By the way, am I the only one bothered by Landon’s “Unmoving Plaid” shirt?
this is so cuuuuute!
The world needs more girls and guys like them. So adorwable! <3
Landon it isn´t really important what you give her for birthday 🙂 just present it before self-made bonfire in the garden.
I have no words.
Only squees.
*Squee*
The only thing really holding that kid back is his bowl haircut. Just buzz it all short.
Romantic guys like me love this kinda stuff.
