111 – Offscreen
A strip where absolutely nothing interesting happens.
I like Chloe’s new hoodie. It looks exactly like her T-Shirt.
My designs are so lazy.
Please vote for me on Top Web Comics. I’d like to make it to the top 100… I’m pretty sure I could be there if you guys helped! Just click on this link, it’s super easy, and I’d really appreciate it.
Thank you all! :)
“Well, Mimi’s here to meet our quota for loli characters”.
How about no.
Moe, sure, but loli has… other connotations.
Is Marie Neige a lolicon?
I doubt it somehow.
To be continued next week.
But Moe doesn’t automatically implies age though.
Loli can refer to either a female child or an older person with a short slender flatchested body.
Miss Sawako in K-On is an adult with an adult’s body, and she’s totally moe.
You can argue that the feelings of moe is basically a reaction to a character’s charm-points that appeal to you (eg: freckles, pigtails, glasses, cat-ears, tsundere personality, maid costumes, etc…)
I agree :)
Though, sometimes it’s hard to understand moe’s appeal.
How could you not fall for that grin? :P
I just know what my moe is.
Moe doesnt really imply age or body type as useing hyakka ryouran samurai girls as an example. but though loli does usually denote age and body type there are some exceptions that break the age rule. like one of my only loli girls

Hitoyoshi Hitomi from Medaka box forgot to add that
Every manga seems to require one, after… I might as well do the same.
Hi Mimi!! :)
Really? M-N has not yet realized? Wow.
Girly chit chat. Cute :)
Mimi : “Hi Fred!”
Yeah, it doesn’t really makes sense. I just thought it was funny.
We can just pretend she had too much things to discuss with Chloe and assumed Chloe would eventually explain why she was with a kid…
It IS funny :)
I was talking about Clementine’s crush ;)
Fred: “I’m not ‘Fred’ “:P
Let see it this work:
Nope.
Well, Frivoleque is ending May in place 231 of TWC list with 254 votes. Let see how high can we reach in June ;)

Saturday, my second to last first-week-voting-report. I don’t think anybody is reading this :P but I can as well complete the week anyway :)
Place 67 with 208 votes so far, so good :) A few comics that update Saturdays had their share and jumped ahead, but it was not as bad as I was afraid. Up to now 17 votes today, what it’s starting to seem the daily average.
As always don’t forget to vote, you can do it once a day. You vote, you rock :)
Annnnnd… Sunday! :) Place 70 with 225 votes. Not bad at all, I was pretty sure that we were going to made it, but not totally sure so I’m truly happy with how this went :)
Let’s see what happens tomorrow ;)
Oh, yes… keep voting please :)
Avoiding the question, hmm?
What question?
Yeah, not much going on. But it’s always interesting to listen in on a conversation and get a bit of insight.
I thought I could use a strip like this.
when i see their bubble teas i remember traffic light :)
Chloe’s is way too much pink. :)
I wonder what flavor they are :)
I would say:
M-N: Kiwi
Chloé: Strawberry
Mimi: Mango
Marie-Neige is the “Miku”. It’s melon flavord. Chloe’s is a “Sweet Lolita”. Strawberry and coconut. As for Mimi’s, it’s a “Naruto”, and it’s, erm… banana… and… I really have no idea what the Naruto tastes like, but it’s very yellow.
Thanks! Love the names :)
I really have no idea what the Naruto tastes like, but it’s very yellow.
i don’t wanna taste naruto xD
“I accidently summoned her and now she won’t stop following me around”
that’s no demon. that’s a child. granted, telling the difference can be hard sometimes.
I’m sure Mimi can be devilish. :)
I can imagine worse “summoning gone bad” scenarios.
could be worse. could be worse. http://tapastic.com/series/PetSuccubus
Whoa, this comic is awfully cute! =D
Carlos.g or Carlos-the-G has really great stuff. Here his Deviant and his Facebook.
He’s got a new follower.
Make us two :) lotusfoxx would deserve his recognition ;)
glad you like it! it’s short too. so it’s not like reading it takes much time.
so, if you’re perusing these here comments. you’re supposed to vote. if you vote i give you an internet cookie. or a gold star. your choice.
Ooh. Me, me! I want a star! :)
What do I get if I vote every day all month long?
is there really no way to post a picture in the comment section?

seriously, what comment system does this site use? i don’t wanna give good people gold star links. i wanna give em actual gold star pictures….
Gravatar. Coding is HTML.
It’s the WordPress built-in one, many comics use it, and it do NOT allow to add images. To enable it a plugin must be added, but of course that always imply a risk.
Awww. Thank you! :)
you’re welcome! now i just need about 1000 more people to vote haha.
You guys are just too nice.
You say “nothing interesting happens”, but the coolness of Frivolesque lies in what the eye does not really see. It’s a nice bit of dialogue between friends. It’s VERY interesting indeed.
Yeah, I think a little discussion like this was needed.
“What’s with the kid?”
“I’m training her to be my evil minion. Our combined cuteness should deflect any blame or suspicion long enough for us to take over the world soon enough…”
I, for one, welcome our cute bespectacled conquerors.
Is Chloé socially awkward? So far, I’m not sure.
I like strips like these, btw.
She isn’t “awkward” per se, but she has some issues. Hers being mostly how she’s super nice and wants to please people, ending up being taken advantage of way too often.
And, well, she’s a gaming geek. So, she’s not especially mainstream either.
I bet some folks wish kids were quite you’re not looking at them ^_^
I see you’re #38, that seems pretty good
Sadly, it’s not gonna happen in real life. In fact, it’s usually the opposite.
I always feel awkward being the only who’s eating something =/ And I can’t recognize Chloe’s food, but it doesn’t look like one you are usually eat with chopsticks)
Looks like a chicken or beef bowl, with white rice underneath.
It’s indeed fried karaage chicken on rice. :)
She’s eating some karaage chicken over a bowl of rice, one of my favorite snacks you can get a the Fanamanga. And from the looks of it, she took a few extra servings of chicken. It’s not like a proper restaurant or anything, so it’s not rare to see people eating stuff there while nobody else at their table is.
It surprised me that the bubble tea costs more than the food.
Did the girls ever try the Karaoke? :P
It’s all korean songs in there, so I don’t think so.
My dislike for Korean stuff probably influences Frivolesque a little. :)
They’ve got English and Japanese songs too I think :) (and some other languages, but I can’t remember which one )
Yeah, I actually realized that yesterday!
A friend of mine gave it a try.
I guess I’m not too much of a karaoke person. I feel bad about spreading misinformation. ^^;
Marie Neige and Clem as roommates? Don’t tempt me like that, Dez! My heart can’t take it….
lol
i think they’d make great roommates. and they could serve orange flavored bubble tea to guests. each time they served them they could make innuendo like statements.
Clementine would explode at the innuendo.
Spontaneous appearance of cute child always improves things. Except in live action, when cute child is always played by terrible child actor.
Glad to know Mimi is appreciated. :)
And yes, out of all the characters in Frivolesque, Mimi’s the only one who I don’t want to see a live version of. :P
Well, maybe a cosplay would be nice.
“Mimi’s the only one who I don’t want to see a live version of. :P”
Are you sure? :)
(link) *sigh*
“Mimi’s the only one who I don’t want to see a live version of. :P”
Are you sure? :)
all of last pannel in the front of a kid. no wonder females have no genuine innocence
I like her hoodie too.
Also a wild Mimi appears.
Even a wild Mimi is pretty tame.
