Just when you think you've got the perfect roommate situation U_U
_________
Surprise! I never said the most voted for option was the winner of the poll. This week the least voted option coming in at 68 votes (as of writing) is the winner!
Cannot believe (As of writing) Pool Party and TMJ-2 were at a tie tho... dang..
Hope you all enjoy domestic #Jail tho! (That's their ship name now, lmao. Because you gyns only ever get to view Riley/Jaden through the bars of a jail cell.)
__
To mix the polls up a little bit, I'm gonna let last weeks' votes determine the order the other 3 comics come out and give you something else to vote on in the comments. So:
(😳86)Gardener Woman - August 3rd (Bonus Page Thursday)
(😎135) Pool Party! - August 7th
(🙄136) TMJ-2 - August 14th
YES YES YES YES LETS GO JAIL GANG (ME)
EDIT: me rn
Ask The Cast Poll
Some comments last week got me thinking it’d be fun to do some direct Ask The Cast pages again – so if you’ve got a burning question for an LB cast member, reply with it below! (mobile uses will need to switch to desktop mode on their browser to do this)
support other questions you like with 👍 so I know who you wanna hear from most. I’ll be picking the 3 most voted for!
Question Criteria
When submitting a question for the LB Cast, keep in mind I’m aiming to answer the question in a singular page. So pleaae address one cast member only xvx.
Also, treat the characters as they are in the current time in the comic – they can’t give you spoilers about what will happen in the future, or give full detailed backstories (many of those are already planned to make up full chapters).
Apart from that, knock yourselves out!
Look at them being so cute and compatible ;_;
At least they donnt bother to iron the laundry which is smart !
THIS IS THE NICEST JAIL EVER THANK YOU
i have a few questions for kai: why does your “cis bitches” protocol of not talking to cis people only apply to women and not men? and how do you distinguish “cis bitches” from trans women and nonbinary people?
surely eli and any other QT members who look like women (but totally definitely aren’t) find it a bit uncomfortable. i know the “OMG KAI ASSUME GENDRR IDENTITY ! PROBLEMATIC LOL” joke has been played to death but id still be curious to hear a justification, even knowing it’d likely be an incredibly sexist one.
i feel like kai would ignore this question if it seemed like it was coming from a “cis bitch” so id just like to declare that im agender in the TRANS way, totally not in the i-don’t-have-a-gender-identity way
Aw, cute! Fan of the slow-burning but I also can’t wait to see their relationship develop
For ask the cast, I would like to ask Clancy if she is okay 🥲
Smh… Imagine not liking laundry which is by far the most fun and relaxing chore. You get to make all your clothes clean again, you get to have a nice laundry pod to laundry sauce combination and you get nice smelling clean clothes…
And I have a question for MJ, what’s your type in a romantic sense?
For Riley and Jaden: (or everyone!) What’s their ideal date?
Always so cute <3 And ooohh this one HITS HOME. Sheets are my nightmare, I never want to get started with them ;__; But once I do, the relief is huge lmao
(Who wants to bet that not liking the obvious chore for the woman gender is a part of Blaire's man diagnosis,,,😭😭)
this is ADORABLE i love the jaden & riley fluff pages so so much!!
Omg they were roommates
It’s insane how normal Jaden and Riley are.. especially after that last page. It feels like whiplash! They’re really out here just maintaining their little household together!!
Thank you for the Jail fooooood!!
Question for Riley: What’s the best thing about being short?
1) i know you saw my tumble posts already rusty thank you for my life 🙏
2) can the questions be for ANY cast member? 👀
I know Rusty asked for questions to be aimed at one character but I’m curious. We know that Parniya has a flair for interior design and Faith loves books and video games and Ari is a music buff, what are some other favorite hobbies of the main cast +Yonique crew?
I am disgusted and appalled that Jaden and Riley both enjoy doing the dishes more than laundry. And to think I found them relatable up until now!!! SO disappointing. >:(
Also I know it’s probably a t-shirt but for a second I thought Jaden was wearing a crop top in the second panel lmao. And I initially misread “BRAND” as “BRAINS”. So a crop top that says BRAINS. (Zombie fashion?)
(Question for literally any QT collective member: What are your thoughts on yaoi?)
loving how colorful these bonus pages are ☺️
hmm.. questions.. ‘eli’, what was the worst part of your ‘terf phase’ and/or what finally ‘woke you up’ to your ‘’internalized transphobia’’ (totally because i want the evil warning signs and not because i want a laugh)
Finally, some eye balm after the last page.
And a question for Riley: Capybara, Tasmanian devil or Thylacine?
question for riley and jaden:
Do either of them like video games and if so whats their favourite genre?
I don’t feel this merits an actual drawing response, so pls don’t do one for it (I’d rather it go to someone else’s much better question!) but I’ve been meaning to ask, did “Brick” choose her trans moniker after the legendary First Brick Thrown At Stonewall?
Which was, of course, thrown by Our Lady of Kweerness Marsha P. Johnson, who definitely did that and was definitely there at that time and was definitely a trans woman and who definitely gave us all our rights?
And if you doubt this easily disproven narrative, you will be sent to hell er I mean be problematic for all eternity?
Seems like the kind of thing she’d do to “pay homage to our queer elders and to remind us of the debt we all owe TRANS WOMEN FOREVER” but also I can see it just being coincedence bc gendie girls pick the most rando shit.
For Parniya, from someone Riley-sized: How does it feel to be so tall? Is it nice? Does it ever bother you?
What’s it like up there in the clouds, queen?
For Faith: what do you want to be when you grow up?
It’s mentioned that MJ had a strict upbringing and if I’m reading her bio correctly moved quite a bit of distance away from her family? Basically, MJ, what’s your life story? I’m the #1 MJ fan btw
To “Babygirl” Hecox: how did you realise you were actually a brave and stunning lady?
For Jaden, what do you think would be a deal breaker even if the girl was otherwise a ten?
Also, did you know that I don’t have whatever you’re about to say? Bbygrl
are any of the leasebound cast a fan of horror movies? 👻
Q for Shez: What does it feel like to be the best of the world? ILYSM I can’t breathe 😭 😭
OK not that one, not that one, sorry.
I am aware you said to just pick 1 but I am unable because all the cast is too darned vibrant and magnetic. It is way too hard, therefore if you feel like doing any of these at all, you select which 1 in the end ⤵
Q for Clancy: as you play in The BallKickers, do you have any favourite or most-admired team mate?? (i’d like the answer to reflect why she likes that woman even if you cant say who, not just a yes or no kind of deal)
or
Q for Ari: What is something a woman can do to impress you?
or
Q for Faith: what do you like the most and the least about your mom?
___________
That aside, if it’s allowed, also Qs for Author:
1.- Have you ever considered making Horny Hubris the name of a band (maybe even Yonique performers) and a fave of Riley as a running gag?
2.- is TMJ also a play on words? in this case on how witnessing their dynamic can be painful, desperating and cause jaw clenching or just coincidence?
3.- Will we get to meet that mysterious freckled tomboy in chapter 12 along with more Shez or will it have to be in 2024?? At this point, IDEC if you make that unnamed character asexual or some evil mastermind, i am about to steal Kai’s sweater because the Yearning and intrigue is eviscerating me
Regarding the mini chapter, I will just say thank you author for the entertainment, and that laundry is simply the devil incarnate. It just is. Those two know whats up.
