[1107] The Liquefaction Of Sandra North
└ posted on Monday, 19 August 2019, by Novil
On the following page you can find all the info about this year’s Sandra and Woo + Gaia artwork contest which comes with $5000 prize money!
- Cloud: Sandra, may I draw your attention to my numerous achievements in…
- Cloud: school
- Cloud: playing the piano
- Cloud: and karate?!
- Cloud: Whew! Is it just me, or has it gotten really hot in here? Anyway, I better take off my shirt.
- Cloud: Whoa, check out this big and heavy box! If you don’t mind, I’m going to lift it. V-e-r-y slowly, and without showing even a trace of effort!
- Cloud: Two can play this game!
- Ye Thuza: Sandra! I’ve just mopped the floor!

Damn but sure boys need a lot less effort for some reason…
Karma’s a muthuh, Sandra.
Darn millenials, can’t even hold their humanoid shapes for even an entire day anymore.
The second frame is probably the cutest Sandra Powree has ever drawn.
And I love Ye Thuzas reaction. 😀
@ MidoriLuna:
[xkcd]Except… “Millennials” started reaching adulthood about 20 years ago.[/xkcd] Which makes you look closer to accusing Ye Thuza than Sanda and Cloud. Mistaken etymology or subtle attempt to influence/hypothesis on the subject of Thursday’s strip?
http://www.xkcd.com/2165/
Is it me or is Cloud looking a lot more like Sandril?
Anyone else getting ‘The Secret Life of Alex Mack’ vibes from this little arc?
… now I feel old for remembering Alex Mack. >.>
Next up Larissa and Ghostrider.
Well – was she or wasn’t she?
Was she just bluffing?
@ DTIBA:
Darn millenials, always millenialling a millenial’s millenial joke.
@ sllimkered:
Well we’ve never seen Ye Thuza mopping but she does seem to be very fastidious with the cleaning, plus that floor looks shiny so I’d say a firm maybe.

It’s easier to check now. Maybe this was Cloud’s plan all along.
@ DTIBA:
Why don’t things mean what they should mean? Millennials sounds like people born in the new millennium. Damn you culture and your stupid illogical language references!
@ MidoriLuna:
Back in our day, we had something called “playing it cool”
Next: Liquefaction of Larissa :)))))
Well played, Cloud; well played. 🙂
Seriously? Sandra’s seen Cloud bare-chested before. This would be nothing to melt over. ‘Sides Sandra’s tease was much more melt-worthy.
@ Thisguy:
“Millennial” means “one who reaches adulthood on the cusp of the millennium”.
@ Mortarm:
That’s different. Toplessness is one thing, but Cloud is deliberately wearing a thin white tank top, showing his strength, and exerting just enough effort to sweat. It’s the same reason a woman in lingerie is more arousing than a woman fully nude.
@ Alpha-Sigma:
Actually, the youngest millennial was born in 1995/1994 depending on your definition/source
So… will this be an entire arc about the two trying to out-liquify each other to the point where they both end up off the deep-end?
Or is this just a two-page thing?
Or will the next one be Larissa effortlessly liquifying Landon, and when Landon tries to liquify Larissa, it doesn’t work?
@ MidoriLuna:
I don’t actually know how to do emojis, but Thumbs Up!
Oh, the iniquity of it all… that women need only dress nicely and look pretty to be attractive, whilst men need to actually work hard and *achieve* stuff…
(sayin’ this ironically of course, outside of dating it’s still overwhelmingly a man’s world…)
I would like to point out from what I researched that Millennials are people born after the gen x-ers like my mom’s generation but It’s said those born from 1989-1999 If I remember some say as late as 2004. But I would be among the last of the millennial generation as I was born in 98′. But no doubtbly on a side note I love this strip.

Yes, I too come to this idea in the panel 2! Cloud = Sandril, 6 years younger and with lighter hair. 🙂
My first thought was when saw this page was, that isn’t the same school uniform as Sandra school trialed, has Sandra been spending more money at the cosplay store?
looks like sandra was telling the truth doesn’t look like there are any panties in that puddle. hahaha
Who’s next for liquification? Landon? Larisa?
Cloud is a quick study, and this show Sandra is as fond of him as he is of her.
Keulan wrote:
Liquifing Landon shouldn’t really pose a challenge for Larisa. Unless he developed some kind of immunity because of over-exposure.
Mortarm wrote:
It’s not seeing him bare-chested as such that’s melting her. Most girls don’t melt for a guy just because he looks good and shows his body off. It’s the combination of first reminding her that he is an alphamale excelling with his intellectual abilities as well as at music and sports and then pulling a cliched seduction attempt at her. Seing someone half-naked at the swimming pool where everyone is half-naked for swimming and it doesn’t mean anything is totally different from a guy pulling off his shirt (under a thinly veiled pretext) specifically for the girl.
@ Trimutius:
All Sandra needed to do was say she was going to wear something skimpy with the likelihood of following through on her promise. She didn’t technically need to do anything and could have claimed that if he was already melting from the thought that he couldn’t handle her actually following through. Cloud had to actually strip and do light exercise, which granted is not that hard especially for him, but in this case it was Sandra’s promise of effort rather than the effort itself which worked.
What is it with sparkles and girls. Vampires sparkle and suddenly they can walk around in the daytime and schoolgirls go insane for them. Cloud sparkles a little and Sandra melts into a puddle.
In my evaluation, however, it’s not so good strip, for I see it as an artificial oposition to the precedent. Sandra provoked Cloud with (talking about) her body, nothing unclear about it. However, in previous 1100 strips we never saw Cloud as an exellent student, and perfectly playing piano (we sow him once playing a child toy pianno as Schroeder in the Peanuts: http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2009/09/17/0095-viva-la-revolution-or-do-re-mi-ti-la-do-re-mi-so-fa-do-re-do/ ). The first panel appear very unconvincing, artifficial. IMHO, the strip can be better without it, and with an additional panel about his physique, out of standards for a 13-years old boy.
I like Ye Thuza reaction too. We see before that she love to be a good houswife, even if it’s against C.O.S.M.O. laws. 🙂

Revenge is a dish best served in a gooey mess.
Are her legs bare?
And did she make good on her “promise”?
@ roguebfl:
Nah, the school uniforms were completely different. Although if Cloud wanted to liquefy Sandra, he probably should have casually mentioned that he’d kept the uniform and was thinking about trying it on to see if it still fit…
@ Gamesman:
Bishie sparkles were around long before Twilight.
The big question in my mind is just why Cloud had a box of bowling balls sitting around his room. Even assuming he set it up for just this purpose, I still wonder where he got them all.
Research shows that the northern glaciers weren’t melting from global warming or climate change. But we’re looking for the real reason still and we’ll give more details after some more research is done.
@ Mortarm:
@ Hegel Marx:
Y’all are equivocating in a way that tells me you don’t quite understand what arouses (most) women, and how it differs from what arouses (most) men. A pure reversal, with Cloud focusing entirely on the idea of himself showing unusually high nudity, would prompt a moderate blush at best, and might even make her uncomfortable if it’s tactless enough. We have subtler buttons to push, I’m afraid. And while Cloud was definitely being too direct by EXPLAINING what he was doing, that makes for better comedic delivery.
Hegel Marx wrote:
I wouldn’ say it is a bad Strip, I found the counterpoint funny. But I agree, it seems much more artificial and out of character for Cloud to brag in front of Sandra in such a set up way than Sandra’s teasing in the previous strip did. I did always get the vibe that he was rather good at School, though. He comes across as the intelligent guy who likes nerdy things and is therefore sometimes falsy assumed to be a wimp by the jocks until they learn he is a kickass at martial arts.
Well played, Cloud!
Counterpoint: Cloud fought Elgamore and went toe to toe despite Elgamore being decked out with superhuman magic wards. So one would assume Cloud’s done at least one pushup in his lifetime.
The thin-shirt-slow-lift display is good, but I think a display of thoughtful gallantry would have been a better option than showing off the awards. Sandra presumably already knows about those.
Maybe if he’d been lifting a heavy box full of *chocolate*… ^-^

Well at least Sandra isn’t all talk
@ Treviisolion:
Coming up with the promises is what hard… striping and light exercise is very uninventive…
