A lot of readers guessed this kind of thing was coming. But did we expect this little three-way gathering?
Also, to confirm: nobody is overhearing anything on this page. Colette doesn't hear Ky whispering in Rudy's ear in panel 3 (I mean, technically we don't either), and Ky can't hear Rudy and Colette talking in panels 6 and 7.
I vote for Neal. 😉
It’s a dignified name that means “champion” in ancient Gaelic.
Served me well for half a century and I kept it for my new lastname, since it just wouldn’t work anymore for me as a first or middle name, lol!
Its great that ky is going to get wear something that makes him comfortable. I just hope that once switched, people will honor his gender. Given that they’ve already seen him already presenting as female, in my experience people may not always be great about it.
I'm so happy they're switching outfits, but hopefully Drew doesn't say something stupid again and ruin his relationship with Ky. This is a great opportunity to see if Drew really cares about Ky.
Colette has already made it abundantly clear he's not going to switch with Rudy as he's just not ready yet. It's just silly and tedious for Rudy to ask permission. STFU and do what you want.
Also, Colette has already said that whenever he's ready to pick a new name it won't be based upon or anything like his old name. Calling him 'Cole'is rather off.
1st, ya posted this 3 times. Twice as a post, once as a reply to one of said posts. And 2nd, you don't gotta tell people (even fictional characters) to "STFU". You gotta show more understanding and compassion.
He already said he doesn't want something close to Colette, but if it's the /sound/ of the name that puts him off, and he's still interested in, say, the meaning or origins of the name, Nick could be a good choice
Well… on the monocle thing, I think it would be awesome that Ky’s gets it because well, bonus points for “hot ky in a tuxedo”. And I think the monocle would give the cloth swap away.
I just hope nothing will screw up because of Drew…
I think Drew will feel conflicted, but then realize how nice Ky looks and happy, so that will make him prioritize them. I hope he'll find it in his heart to chose love over his anxiety.
It's of better facility to just say he whenever it's been announced Ky is in boy mode or she when Kylie is in girl mode. When the option is available the specific can be terrific.
Sure would’ve been affirming, and a shining milestone in Drew’s personal development if he would’ve been the one to ask Rudy for the favor on Ky’s behalf. Maybe that’s not in Jocelyn’s intended story line, but I’m the eternal optimist hoping that people are always learning and growing in their relationship and understanding skills.
Well just because Drew didn't do that doesn't mean he isn't changing or learning. Drew and Rudy don't really know each other that well, so it makes sense for Drew not to ask someone he barely knows for a personal favor.
Drew seems to think he knows Rudy well enough to have awkwardly asked him for assistance with an impossible request as an unusual personal favor in the past.
I was hoping this would happen! Rudy is so sweet. Not only is he more than happy to trade outfits with his two trans friends stuck in dresses, he's rechecking with Colette since he offered to trade with him first. Everyone needs a Rudy in their lives.

also i am /so/ here for this outfit switch!! i hated seeing ky all dysphoric and sad so it’ll be lovely to see him rocking a suit (and monocle!!)
