Ah-Ha! I recognize that laptop’s logo!
They Buy their stuff the same place Alex does too!!
^_^
Recognize it from… strip 107? http://frivolesque.com/archives/comic/107-dairy
This has always been the Apple logo in Frivolesque.
It’s always been the Apple logo in The Broken Buddha as well.
Maybe I needlessly fancied one inspired the other and forgot it Along the way.
Is broken Buddha older than strip 107? (May 2015)
Just curious.
I published it first in 2016 but back in 2015 I was in the process of making it so it could be a coincidence… Albeit a strange one to be sure.
Also I have this vague memory of us working our respective comics and as I made this logo, you thought it would be interesting to put instead of the Apple one…
Maybe it’s a construction of mine and none of that happened and is only part of “I wish”…
Tisiphone is busy playing chess with The Bear.
Who would be the sorer loser, I wonder.
If M-L lost she’d probably go “Checkmate?! You think I lost? This isn’t even my final form! *power up* *flip board into stratosphere*”
Ooh, Liliane putting her foot down, I like it :)
A few interesting datails today. Starting for the logos in Viviane’s coat and laptop matching.
I’ve been asking myself whether Viviane is having dimples, having cheek piercings, or having symmetrical moles?
Dimples / tiny little wrinkles?
Age marks
M-L is out for lunch.
+1 :)

I voted and it is now 71st as of this post.
Climbing back!! The comic is #66 at this moment :)
Voted again but it is up to 67th place.
I kinda feel bad for Liliane because she wasn’t even given any superhuman soldiers. Why does only Montreal get good things?
I think it’s not given IIRC they got them from the network, I guess it’s just Liliane’s preferences, maybe she likes some experienced old soldier and some katana-wielding action girl.
Well, it’s good to see Liliane getting down to business here. Makes one wonder how Viviane will react when she finds out what happened to her rouge agent. And speaking of which, what happened to Liliane’s missing assistant?
Somehow I doubt Viviane would believe a story like “Marie-Lune got swallowed up by a median sized antique box that houses an ancient God”.
No, Sidonie. I suspect very much that you do not, in fact, want to know where Tisiphone is and what is happening to her at this time.
Soooooo, when you asked if we saw that woman before I searched for her tag and this one came out:
http://frivolesque.com/archives/comic/186-ptsd
Is this the one?
She seems similar, doesn’t she?
Indeed. :-) So John left his heart with the leader of a rival organization. Or rival branch? I forgot.
Makes me wonder what happened between them and what she told him after they obviously made it through.
It’s a bit complicated. They are two branch of the same organization, but Conroy isn’t technically on their payroll. Just like Saki, he’s a mercenary.
And no, Viviane wasn’t a director back then. She was a mercenary too.
And she didn’t make it through.
Why is she alive now, working for secret services, is a mystery.
And Conroy isn’t aware of anything. Heck, Liliane probably doesn’t even know it’s the same woman as the one he used to be into.
Oh boy, that IS complicated. Thanks for the explanations!
Hmm, Viviane Atwater, no eyeglasses. Must be a bad guy!
One of the things I like about this comic is that almost all of the characters wear eyeglasses. Gaia doesn’t, but she did for a while. Another thing I like is that it is Canadian. Thank you for creating and sharing Frivolesque with us.
Heh, it’s fun to put my own little neck of the woods on the map sometimes!
Thanks for being a fan.
And do you like glasses? You should come and meet us on our Discord, lots of users seem to be into that. XD
Another shady agency. And another fan of the Québec bridge.
Coincidence? I think not!
That bridge is a Big Thing for Quebec City. And it has an amazing story.
Hah! That’s not a different agency. It’s just the Montreal office. (Liliane’s office is based in Quebec City)
And thus, it’s not the Quebec Bridge on her wall, but the Jacques-Cartier Bridge. (located in Montreal). It’s almost as iconic though.
I thought it would be fun to have both of their offices displaying a famous bridge from their respective cities.
I think I know why Sidonie wishes she knew where M-L was, M-L still owes her dinner.
I’ve been wondering whether they really are sisters in the blood-related sense, or just in the given the super-soldier treatment together sense. And whether they really care much about each other.
If Sidonie had to choose between getting dinner or getting M-L back, what would she choose?
