I definitely know what you’re talking about, Dr. W… the original ending to NGE, where instrumentality happened and we all became one big happy family(or in other words, a huge planet with one mind, sort of like the borg).

Not sure what Hideki Anno was smoking those days, but that ending re-soundly sucked big time… The one with giant Ayanami too, the whole Gaia super-being being silly… Would have been better a giant berserk Unit 1 breaking the world in half with its AT field.
funny. i was actually picturing something a bit further down…
any who….
I’m actually expecting a slow restart of their relationship. Sorry guys no jollies or slap and tickle anytime soon. It’s funny how we all make these predictions about what gonna happen next but we never try to guess the dialogue….
i wonder if we can get a lil more mature than that.
Nate: (discuss life)
Rose: (responds)
Nate: (puzzle look)
Rose: (makes witty quip)

Once Again, I think Nick has been following me around and taking notes back when I was in College. I have always lived my life according to that ancient Chinese proverb / curse: “May you live in i interesting times”
Tits up, tits down, (hell even tits slapping back and forth in a wild beast-like manner) I doubt Nate will give a damn as long as he’s in on seeing em in action.
I guess there’s something about seeing the girl you want to sleep with accidentally “stink-fingering” the girl you’re hate fucking at work that just lends itself to introspection.
But I’m wagering that their eventual sex is not alcohol related. After all, Rose is still a minor, despite her state-mandated ripeness for sexual activity.
And all I can notice is how so many prior posters called out her cleavage or tight shit, while I’m just not seeing it at all. I see a Rose in one of her least provocative outfits, ever.
The original Treading Ground comics were created between 2003 and 2011. As such, you'll find some unfortunate hallmarks of raunchy comedies of the time. These include casual misogyny, dubious sexual situations, insensitive edgelord humor and a character using the r-slur.
While these are not typically portrayed as positive, it's definitely not how I would write the comic today, and you should know that going in. That said, there's still a lot of good stuff here.
There's also some nudity. Consider the whole comic NSFW!

Congrats. Now the only question is will he take her downstairs and bang her silly?

Does it matter *which* comic? Because here’s one: http://www.stickprimo.com/2010/10/03/firsties1
The Time Lord
The Time Lord thinks that would work very well….
Plasmo
I believe he will be working towards that goal.

FAIL!
ExposedBusinessMan
You sir have royally failed.
Ryutso
I came here, there was no comic.
Ryutso
Weird. There was no comic, but there was a comments form.
A Random Dewd
Same here. My browser didn’t bring up the new comic (though I hit refresh MULTIPLE times >.< ) until like 12:05
Jeri
This could be an attempt to stop the infancy that is the “ZOMG LOL FIRST!” comments, perhaps?
Nick Wright
I have no idea, but I’ll be keeping an eye out.
Nifar
Hopefully spoiling the first by leaving a real comment.
Gotta love the metaphors. It’s always fun to see those two interacting.
A Random Dewd
And now back to what seems to be “normal” for Nate & company.
We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming.
Dr.wonderful
And that when Nate Ikari learn to accept things and become TANG.
Congratulations!

To anyone want to know WHAT I’m talking abou. Watch Neon Gensis Evangelion final scene.
Renadt
I have all the episodes, but by title, so I don’t know the order. Maybe I can get the order by title?
Renadt
Well, the originals, anyway.

Ass to Ass
What this webcomic needs is a good little session of… lesbian dildo ass to ass!
Frank
So when are they getting laid? 🙂
A Random Dewd
That would be the next logical step. Yes.
Sara E.
I like that metaphor, though for some reason when she says ‘poison apples’ I picture Tracy’s tits.
Aaron
I think you’re supposed to.

Bam. dialogue.

I could, but I really don’t want to.
No Name In Particular
If so, they’d be talking about “poisoned cantaloupes.”
chumash99
How about Rose’s “cantaloupes”. 😀
Sara E.
Rose doesn’t have cantaloupes, hers are more like peaches or…apples. Maybe grapefruits depending on the time of the month.
Yorkie
Thats funny so was i
Twaddle
oh and i call middle.
Passerby
Oh poor delusional Nate. You can’t deny what you are.
Dr.wonderful
What is he? A snappy dresser? A author of a selfhelp book?
The man who knows all
A heartbreak waiting to happen.

Nate The Tool, man!

Well, as long as she doesn’t get between him and his tool… : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4EfiJYrvT0
The Canadian
These few last pages give me the strange feeling this could be the resolution of a very long story
I have a name
Am I the only one that notices Rose has cleavage in the first 2 panels, but not the second 2 panels?
MegaHentai
Well, she *did* mention it was getting cool. Mayhap she just zipped up?
Pink Freud
Actually, that was a perfect example of art imitating life. Rose leaned down: cleavage. She straightened back up, cleavage go byebye.
gjh42
Leaning down/facing = cleavage visible; 3/4 view = cleavage hidden by shirt.
Rose is one of those with cleavage any time:)
Nerdtress
No, she totally zipped up! Look at the position of the zipper relative to the collar. It fits.
Pink Freud

Ginger
I’m quoting Nate on that the next time someone asks me why I’m not married.
FA4ED
Things are about to go tits up, Atleast I hope for Nate they do.
josh
Tits up, tits down, (hell even tits slapping back and forth in a wild beast-like manner) I doubt Nate will give a damn as long as he’s in on seeing em in action.
Crestlinger
Yay! The return of the Zen roof!
*Pictures the banner cast pushing Tracy off of it with Purvis waiting below.
Flip-a-Baby
Yay! a little normalcy.
SilentSooYun
I love her blouse 🙂
The pips on the collar disappear in the last panel, though
Nick Wright
Fixed.
Jon
This comic made me smile 🙂

THEY GONNA HAVE SEX! I KNOWS IT!
chumash99
They might, if they drink enough Dos Eques. 😉
Oberon
4 Loco…

Stay thirsty my friends.
Anti
I’m sorry, but at the moment all I can notice is how Very tight her shirt is.
Oberon
And all I can notice is how so many prior posters called out her cleavage or tight shit, while I’m just not seeing it at all. I see a Rose in one of her least provocative outfits, ever.
Anti
I have to agree.
