HARRY SQUATTER/PALMER: So, are you a big HP fan?
SAM: Oh, yes. I never got into wizard rock, though. But I liked your band!
HERMIONE STRANGER/BAILEY: Did I eavesdrop that correctly? We made your new pal here a convert?
HARRY SQUATTER/PALMER: Yep.
HERMIONE STRANGER/BAILER: Well! Maybe we should actually play more often.
SAM: Do you not do a lot of gigs?
HARRY SQUATTER/PALMER: Nah, we mostly just post our stuff to the internet, but we haven’t written anything new in a while.
SAM: That’s too bad. I’d love to see you again.
HARRY SQUATTER/PALMER: Well, you know, I don’t have to be playing a show. We could just… see each other again.
@TsunamiJane,
Not just you–I had a brief moment of that too, and I’m also bi/pansexual. Then I was like, “Wait, do I KNOW that she’s lesbian or did I just assume that?” and then “Wait, even if she is, why can’t she like this guy?” and then “Wait, do I even know for sure that Potter is a guy?”
And then I just squeed some more, because this is a very, very cute scene.
On Sam’s sexuality, she fantasises about a hot elf (which I read as male) in an early strip. She’s described as gay by her ableist and/or ginger mocking friend, but I wouldn’t put bisexual erasure past her.
I just finished an archive binge after following a link from Deeply Problematic. I’ve loved all of it, particularly the Puppyverse and time travelling Founding Fathers. So glad Australia, for its disturbing increases in jingoism, doesn’t have a real equivalent.
Any chance Oliver’s Wood will adapt some of the canonical songs, like “A Cauldron Full of Hot, Strong Love”? 😀
That’s the nerdiest, smoothest I’m-into-you convo ever. <3
Love Sam's cute smile that travels all the way to her eyes!
Omigawd! *squee* This is SOOO adorable! <3 I hope they go on a date!
So much squee, so little time.
oh potter you rotter~
^________^
AWWWWW
I am going to explode from cute!
Loooooove it!
I have an embarrassment to admit: Until right now, I was like “Wait I thought Sam was a lesbian?”
Why it’s embarrassing: I’m bi.
*facepalm*
OOO OOO I’m SO interested in how gender and sexuality is being read in this strip! :3
The cute is almost causing me physical pain.

Just Some Trans Guy! That was entirely my thought process exactly. Thanks for letting me know I’m not the only one! 🙂
Well, at least we know this one’s into books 😉

Hi, another newcomer from Deeply Problematic, I’ll be a regular follower!
Just love the look on Sam’s face at the end!
