Asma knows that appearances are more important than reality. You look like you’re in the right place? Nobody’s going to question it. Look nervous or out of place? Yeah, you’re gonna get questioned.
I’m going to assume this is more in line of “If I look nervous or dangerous in any way they may think I’m suspicious” than any work ethic. For the same reason, she can’t leave the spot or it could show up in record that she was suspiciously missing when the police came around.
I thought it was a mix of that and “this is my routine, my spot, I can just zone out and swipe the student IDs and pretend the world is fine” sort of thing. Definitely didn’t think “work ethic”.
As in you will secure Romania for Willis… or Romania is something you already have in your possession and can give it? Either way, terrifying energy and I love it.
Yes I very much enjoy these inserts that contribute very little to the ongoing story and certainly don’t wish we could spend time with the many other side characters that have gotten little panel time over the recent years.
Bowling-themed romance? What, we just keep watching the guy strike out with the main romantic interest and not noticing the romantic attentions of the spare?
If we’re patient enough, we’ll get to see Asma putt herself in a fun conversation with Sal, whose hotness is on par with Alice’s, birdie hole in one eagle.
I feel like Asma would faint if she were flanked by both Sal and Alice at the same time… dang it, now I have a mental image of a flustered Asma and it is adorable. What offerings does one give to the Damn-You-Willis to garner their favor? I would like to beseech them to make this a reality.
This feels like a callback to a strip where someone, probably Walky, got weirded out seeing Asma somewhere other than behind the desk, but I just went through the whole Asma tag and couldn’t confirm that that strip existed.
If, however, your original universe was one where the US was not threatening Greenland and there was no significant global warming, you should know you’re screwed.
I’m not going looking for it, but it’s not a strip that had Asma in it. Walky saw another person (a guy I think) behind the front desk and weirded out about it.
Just dropping in to say BOY OH BOY DO I LOVE POLYAMORY. Since apparently that upsets someone lmao.
That said, Asma is absolutely where she is supposed to be. She shouldn’t have to hide from cops or fear for what might happen if they spot her there. It’s all a fucking nightmare.
Honestly, I feel like polyamory is the ultimate flex. “What’s that? You can’t get a girlfriend? That’s funny… I’m sitting here with two girlfriends and a boyfriend. Sounds like a skill issue, bro.”
Seriously, the more I learn about that lifestyle, the more I realize it requires a level of emotional intelligence I do not and may never possess. Frankly it’s downright impressive.

Asma’s work ethic is nothing to scoff at :0
Asma knows that appearances are more important than reality. You look like you’re in the right place? Nobody’s going to question it. Look nervous or out of place? Yeah, you’re gonna get questioned.
Be like Asma. Stay safe.

at least the Stormtroopers can’t shoot
Yes, Asma, we’re all surprised you didn’t get deported.
Pleasantly.
I almost completely skipped the comments the last two days, did i miss anything? No? Fantastic. Anyways, Asma is aawesome as always.
You didn’t miss a thing.
As far as you know.
And i like to keep it that way
Aerosmith will be glad for the news.
Jane didn’t miss a thing, not even a piercing. /deepcut
Her name is Asma Abbasi, she sits at the front desk.
She’s the guardian of incoming mail, she’s the keeper of the manafest.
In a time of chaos, sticking to one’s routine can be the most calming thing for you.
So can bowling-themed romance mangas.
Or so I’m told.
por que no los dos?
Dumbing of Age Book Sixteen: No Amount of Stormtroopers is Going to Keep Me Off My Schedule
^^
Okay but I actually need this to be the title.
Slip Willis a huge enough sum and I’m sure something could be worked out.
Oh, is it a bidding war? Willis, whatever their offer is, I counter-offer with Romania.
As in you will secure Romania for Willis… or Romania is something you already have in your possession and can give it? Either way, terrifying energy and I love it.
Very happy that Asma is seemingly O.K. & handling it decently well.
I’m choosing to believe that Asma is indicating that to freak out looks suspicious.
As opposed to the 9/11-ish mantra that “If you’ve done nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about”™.
She does seem way too smart for that bullshit anyway. I just thought she might be uttering it out of cynicism.
Obviously the former.

I must object to the way you kept the extended metaphor out of the gutter.
It is all about how you frame the discussion.
I do quality artisanal puns. I don’t go grabbing at the low-hanging ball puns.
Oooo. Nice spin.
Awful bold of you to assume Asma would read a romance story with a guy in it
My first GF was our high school’s bowling team. Asma got taste.
This feels like a callback to a strip where someone, probably Walky, got weirded out seeing Asma somewhere other than behind the desk, but I just went through the whole Asma tag and couldn’t confirm that that strip existed.
That’s because you jumped universes. It happens from time to time and is mostly harmless.
If, however, your original universe was one where the US was not threatening Greenland and there was no significant global warming, you should know you’re screwed.
yeah this is the “berenstain bears” universe
It depends entirely on the universe you’ve landed in.
I’m not going looking for it, but it’s not a strip that had Asma in it. Walky saw another person (a guy I think) behind the front desk and weirded out about it.
Cool hand Asma.
You are saying what they have here is a failure to communicate?
i need to know more about that bowling yuri
So say we all.
110% agree.
I wish there was more sports yuri in general. Bowling sounds like it’d be really fun
Damn Good, Girl!

I been in yet another SCP bunge lately, anyone else here a fan of it?
An anagram of Asma is masa, with is amazing stuff. Esp when you are allergic to wheat. Huzzah for masa flour.
Asma is looking for a lawyer to sue!
Gets Jacob’s brother.
I bet her behaviour is from hard-earned experience from both herself and her family/community growing up.
