- Sandra: I’m already super nervous about Saturday.
- Woo: Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll have a great time.
- Sandra: Yeah, probably. But what if not?
- Sandra: I wish I’d stay as cool as Zoey in such situations.
- Father: Are you nervous because of your gig next week?
- Zoey: Yes, daddy, because of the gig…!

Zoey still isn’t as nervous about Saturday, however, as fans of The Owl House.
Cool as a cucumber.
It’s obvious.
She is as relaxed as jelly in a slight summer breeze.
Nothing like being a lesbian about to go on a date with your crush, her boyfriend, and her BFF (who is both a pyromaniac and bullied you as kids) to calm the nerves..
I wonder if Sandra would be cackling if she knew how nervous Zoey is
(de-lurking, long time reader here)
Does Zoe know about Larissa going too? If not, things are probably going south (in the most hilarious ways)
(re-lurking)
Daddy?
At this age?
Oh dear – here we go again!
Poor Zoey, she’s becoming quite a favourite character of mine and I’d hate if it goes badly for her!!
I love moments like these which show Zoey’s vulnerable side. I can imagine the pressure she puts on herself to be the ace at everything.
Also, this strip shows she is indeed genuinely interested in Sandra, not just “playing” her as a few readers have suggested (understandably, given some of her past behaviour) .
Do we know whether or not Zoey is out to her parents?
@ BadRoad:
Doesn’t seem so… Of course, maybe she keeps her crushes to herself…
@ BadRoad:
She doesn’t seem to be trying very hard to hide it these days. And in a fairly small community, gossip propagates at the speed of light, or maybe a little faster. So they probably know.
@ BadRoad:
She dated Julia for quite awhile and there’s no yet known reason for her to hide it so I don’t see why they wouldn’t. It’s just that anxious teens don’t normally brag to their parents that they’re going to be spending an afternoon alone with their crush and their crush’s boyfriend alone “studying biology.”
…at least not until afterwards.
@ Wizard:
…and does anyone even care anymore – even in the US?
It’s kinda sad how seldom we see Woo and his wildlife friends these days…
@ persia:
It really depends on *where* you live in the United States, not just what state but what area of any given state. The closer you are to most (though not all) larger cities the less people care, but the further you live away from a major population center, yes, very much so.
If you live out in the country, parents finding out there is *a* LGBT student in their kids high school can and will become the entire focus of multiple PTA meetings, along with various degrees of attempting to remove said student from the school.
Hell, some areas can still be fairly hostile to children of biracial couples, I saw plenty of that with a few of my younger cousins when they were still in school (they graduated two and three years ago respectively)
I predict Zoey and Larissa will end up an item at the end of various misunderstandings.

I don’t think Larisa actually will be coming.

It’s kinda funny that you ask this while using a name like this.
According to my knowledge Iran (formerly know as Persia) executed a gay couple just a few months ago. (Seems like there’s still around 70 countries in the world where consenting sex between people of the same gender is considered illegal)
On the plus side: seems the US aren’t the most backward place after all.
let me get this straight, cloud now has 3 girl friends and Sandy/ Larisa and Zoe now have a boyfriend and 2 girlfriends each
@ Zorn:
your argument fell apart the moment you said let me get this straight.
Now I’m worried how this will affect the band.

Maybe it’s just me, but “we’re not as religiously conservative as Iran” doesn’t exactly sound like a badge of honor…
@ clickbait:
Yes mate, I’m not from Iran and I hate the demented theocracy there just as much as all the Iranians do.
@ Kenju:
That’s really evil, wanting to take a kid out of school because the are wired differently . It’s not that far removed from burning “witches” is it?
Zorn wrote:
Larisa’s supposed to have a boyfriend still (Landon).
Also I’m pretty sure that all this is just about curiosity and not about building any kind of formal polyamorous relationship.
(I really hope Sandra knows what she’s getting herself into … don’t forget that Novil promised she’d suffer in the current Arc)

Just to be 100% clear about it: I was only referring to your nickname.

you got me there
Is the comic now officially one update per week on Thursdays? That seems to be the recent trend. No problem if it is, I’d just like to know so I stop checking on Mondays.
Is there even still an update schedule, actually?
I guess Novril has a day job that gets in the way. He has my sympathy.
The question is: who is ok with who smooching whom?
I think everyone is good with watching the others smooch Sandra, but is she ok if Larisa goes for Cloud? Is Zoe ok if Larisa goes for her or tries to get her to kiss a boy?

ahahaha Woo more like Who? Personally I’m very amused by these recent storylines so I don’t mind, but it has been quite a while.
How did Larisa get into this …. biology study group?
