- Cloud: What’s even going on here?
- Larisa: Well, Sandra loves you so much that she wanted to get you a very special gift. But she just couldn’t find one that matched her impossibly high standards.
- Cloud: Really?
- Larisa: Yup. She hasn’t quite understood yet that it’s actually quite easy to make boys happy.
- Larisa: {Sigh} What would you two be doing without me…?

Larisa, the future succubus, and creator of chaos among the men of power, provide a wholesome and reasonable solution. After convincing Cloud to get Sandra a particular type of lingerie, I half expected her to try and persuade Sandra to give Cloud her v-card.
Who didn’t see this coming?
This is quite tame for Larisa.
Larisa is a Chaotic Good, she might be bad at some point but in the end, she does care about her friends. I mean, she will get into lots of trouble and mess with people, but she is still not evil.
Guys, don’t be silly. She knows she doesn’t *have* to push things any further. They’ll finish the corruption all on their own.
She’s good at her future job.
So Sandra could’ve just given herself to cloud? … Wait could be taken out of context.
So Many people just need a shove. Forget being a succubus, she could just do That and have the same net result.

Very true, we should not forget that the reason she sold her soul to the Devil in the first place was to save Sandra.
It’s more “Larisa ex machina” … where did she come from? Weren’t they at Cloud’s place when we left them?
On the other hand … “Yay! Kissings!”
The best gift to give is just yourself. You could have wrapped it up in some prettier packaging but it’s what’s on the inside that counts.
@ Carlosfer2201:
I mean, I didn’t. I certainly wasn’t expecting things to go as far as some others here were, but Larissa being who she is I did expect her to suggest Sandra’s gift be to model the gift Cloud gave her. Honestly I prefer the outcome we got to that though.
Larisa to the rescue!!
She deeply cares about her friends and as a succubus trainee, knows they will finish the job on their own.
There’s a good chance Cloud might just see Sandra model his gift for her.
This page confused me because I am wondering if they were still at Cloud’s home.
So mom didn’t give a damn, so the danned needed to appear from… Somewhere to save the day? Great parenting there…
Larisa is not a hero we deserve, but a hero we need.
Aside from the evil succubus-in-training’s influence…
Sandra actually looks pretty good in that jacket. Mayhaps she keeps it or gets one for herself?
Every teenage girl needs a mentor wise beyond her years.
Larisa has a gift.
For all you sweet gullible children: that is not how it is working.
@ JohnGB:
I kinda thought they were already sexually active? An earlier comic implied it, after all.
Where did Sandra come from? Or was she with them all along?
That was a typo, I meant Larisa.
Dawww! That was a cute ending.
Such an excellent best friend.
Too bad she’s the final boss she must defeat to win the game.
Wow, Larissa just doing something good?
@ PTC:
Its her boyfriends jacket. Yeah, he’s never getting that back
@ clickbait:
To people asking why Larissa is at Cloud’s house… Wasn’t the whole plot of this thing that there was no time to get a gift because Cloud’s party was right after school? Hence why she supposedly had to leave school, go to the mall, and shop in the -7 minutes that she would have before she had to catch a bus back to school? And why she couldn’t just go right after school let out?
I IMAGINE that Larissa is invited to Cloud’s birthday party. And I IMAGINE that if she’s feeling guilty all the way to Cloud’s house, Sandra would be dragging her feet a bit, meaning Cloud and she would end up showing up at the party after everyone else.
Is there a real Larissa? And if ‘Yes’ – where can I meet her <3
Okay, while this is an admittedly sweet resolution, I’m not sure if the lesson should really be “Sandra tried too hard to find a gift that corresponded with Cloud’s interests as an individual when all she had to do was exploit his hormones because he’s a guy.” It’s just a really bizarre parallel given all the crap Larisa put Cloud through when the situation was reversed,

Nope they’ve comic has impley they’re sexually aware, and the parents are concerned they will soon be sexual active [and the various parenting style responses to this possibility] but the comic has not implied the more sexual active then kissing and body aware with their dressing.
IF you can stretched it you could guess they done self exploration but not not really be directly implied by the comic.

You’ll be damned if you do. It just might be worth it. Perhaps you could get a position as an incubus.

I think you’re misreading this. Sandra put all that effort into buying *things* for Cloud when all he really wants is to be with *her*.
Cloud’s not being exploited here, this is what he *wants*.

A fair way to look at this page to be sure, and how I’d look at it if the series as of late didn’t do away with optimism/good faith.
But pretty much each arc this year was negative outlook after negative outlook without a genuine positive moment to offset them or to give a breather.
This arc along with Cloud having his mind fixed by Larissa as well as the fairly recent Liquefaction strip is basically saying that teens don’t think about anything, but sex 100%, ever.
The Zoey/Julia arc is pretty much, all shipper and teen couples are trash.
German immigrant arc tells us that everyone is racist.
Heck I’ll be surprised if Novil doesn’t do an arc where Cloud cheats on Sandra, cause you know there’s no such thing as a good person according to the series as of late. Especially the young people.
