MCLIS SET, NEXT DAY
Rowan: Rowan Muscade. I should be on a guest list, or something?
Rowan (thinking): Be cool, Rowan. Sure, you click with his personality in ways that kinda make your heart race . . .
But that doesn’t guarantee you’ll think he’s hot in person! When the net-based dates flop, that’s usually why — you just don’t feel the zing.
Staffer: Muscade . . .
M-U-S . . . ?
Archie: Oh! Hey!
I’ve been expecting him! Get this man a badge and let him in.
Rowan (thinking): Zing.

Just wanted to say, really liking the ‘location text headers’ this arc is doing, and the font they’re in!
Agreed. It makes me think of some sci-fi font, but I just haven’t been able to pin down exactly which font it is or where I’ve seen it.
I think it’s a classic sci-fi font that’s been used for a number of things, but I’m not sure I can name them. Maybe Star Trek’s used it some? Not sure.
It’s the “Next Generation” font.
I’m not sure how many shows have used it, but it finally occurred to me where I remember it from.
The Nintendo Gamecube logo.

That’s the one!
…although I picked it because of the NCIS logo.
Wrong genre — to fit with the MCLIS theme, it’s from a police procedural.
…do people like it as a crime-show reference, or is this a “location text headers would make every arc better” type thing?
Crime show reference for me.
I’m loving the reference, personally.
Yeah, definitely as a “this arc only”-flavor sort of thing. I think it clashes with the general feel of the comic too much to do it everywhere.
Zing. <3
LOL, that zing. I’m pretty sure that surprised nobody but Rowan. XD
It starts with zing, it’ll end with boing.
LOL 🙂
Archie coincidentally looks like a boyfriend who, uh, we broke up because he was very physically revolted by the massive hole I have in my chest.
? Uh, you ok?
Yeah. It was a long time ago. Or do you mean the hole? It’s a congenial birth defect. People sometimes call it ‘funnel chest’.
I’ve been tested for it repeatedly: I don’t have Marfan’s, I just look exactly like people with Marfan’s.
