Who's hot

[mlooney 3,687]

Most of the fems that DS draws are cute, I find 2 that are hot.  Sword armed Susan ( https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/doubledate-008 ) and non pizza girl Jay.  This says something about me and I'm not quite sure what it is.

I thought this strayed from the weather thread.

What seperates attractive & hot for me is confidence and no concern for how others see you.

Most of the time that leaves Susan, Amanda & Brownie.

Lavender is also not "cute" in the sense that the kids are.  She's an attractive adult, which is different than being a cute teen

While not hot, noddle arm Nanase is very cute.

Also teacher Diane is very cute and should be used for Q&A strips.

I currently consider Rhoda the hottest of the cast, at least since she gained her self-confidence.

Second place would probably go to Tedd when she's in a feminine or androgynous mood.

For many years I considered Ellen to be the hottest of the cast, but she's been surpassed in recent years; she still ranks a solid third.

Nanase would be next, though her hotness-factor was temporarily reduced quite a bit during the phase where she was wearing that sweater all the time (not so much because of the sweater as because of her attitude, though the sweater certainly didn't help).

Grace and Sarah both have their hot moments; I'd lean towards Sarah as fifth place if only because she seems to have a stronger libido.

Finally, I find Susan quite attractive, and really like her as a character, but I'm reluctant to call her "hot" (even out of her earshot) when she isn't interested in sex or romance. (This isn't about whether she "available", it's just that to me hotness implies not just passive attractiveness but actively "advertising" oneself, even if only to an existing partner.)

Nanase has moments and her fairy form she used at Ashley's party was hot.  Also most of her shoulder angels have been as well

Yesterday's strip made me realize that part of the reason why I find Jay hot is because of her clothing. Her ready for bed, gripping her pillow tight*, isn't nearly as hot as her day time wear, this might also explain why I don't find Pizza Girl Jay as hot.

*Your welcome for that ear worm.

Sad, that; no hot pizza delivery for you.

Introducing Jay, the warm pizza delivery girl!

[mlooney 3,687]

 

thankfully I get hot pizza here,  Granted it's normally a guy that delivers.

Lord help me, I'm developing a thing for Jay; IRL she'd be hot but she'd be trouble, creating drama.

[mlooney 3,687]

Oh yeah, she's a drama llama.  Might not all be her fault however, don't forget her family is a bit dramatic.

Re: fault, it does not matter. My ex could never grow beyond her conflicts with her mother. While not ultimately self generated, it was her call to either leave it behind or let it smother her; she chose to be smothered. The best I could do is attempt to hold an exit door open and hope she'd use it.

We have kids. Most of them will no longer talk to mom. One that does was because I encouraged it. Some days, I have mixed feelings about that; mom is becoming a shadow of her own mom, and is not entirely healthy to contact. But said daughter is an adult, and is in a good place, so I guess I have no cause for concern.

[ijuin 601]

We know her maternal grandfather, but we do not yet know her mother (Arthur’s daughter).

[mlooney 3,687]

Technically we don't know that Jay is related to AJA via her mother. Could be be AJA son's child.  GIven thing said in the comic it's unlikely but possible.

I developed an attraction to Susan very early on.

[mlooney 3,687]

I've felt strongly about Susan, particularly after the “I am the Captain” strip, but I never felt attracted to her as such. Part of that might be that she doesn't want a relationship like that right now, and I respect that.  Weird how the feelings of a comic character influence how you feel about them.

[AFNB 40]

Meh, I still feel the attraction, I just wouldn't try to push her into a relationship. Unlike Bad Tom, I'd respect her wants/feelings. I've done it in the past in real life.

[mlooney 3,687]

She is the most “adult” looking of the main cast, which does add a bit of attraction, given my age.

[Darth Fluffy 354]

So far, I think Camelia, a minor character, has the most positive bundle of canon attributes. She is caring and was willing to go out of her way for someone she did not know very well. As with most of the girls, she is easy on the eyes.

After she got a little less spiky, I agree.  And she does seem to be a genuinely nice person, but that describes many EGS characters.

I honestly have a number of crushes on fictional characters that are basically the remnants of ones that were age-appropriate at the time.

The only age appropriate EGS character for me is maybe Lavender.  And that may be stretching it.

”Stretching" has other meanings when describing a shape shifter.

Susan is the one who is the most like how I view myself, and for that reason we would get along together about as well as two Magnetic North Poles. What I really need is someone more like Ellen to act wacky and pull me out of my shell.
