Panel 1 Mae: *sigh* Okay, so, this might sound crazy, but… Greg (2): Let me guess - you’re me from an alternate dimension? Mae: Oh, so not crazy sounding at all then. Panel 2 Greg (2): We’ve had alternate universe clones dropping by here off and on for the last 20 years. Usually looking for video games that got cancelled in their dimension. Mae: Waaaait a minute, you’re the Greg from the hue-shifted universe! Panel 3 Mae: I bet this is going to universes we visited the last time we used it! Greg (F): How do we pick which universe it goes to, though? Greg (2): I’d say to ask Tony, but he’s up on his space station. Panel 4 Greg (2): I’ve gotta say, it’s super weird that BOTH of you are female. I had assumed the gender-swapped versions of me were the exception. Mae: Take my advice - don’t think too hard about it, sport.

Panel 1 Mae: What on earth compelled you to press the button on that RIGHT after it was handed to you?! Greg (F): Oh, I don’t know, maybe ask YOURSELF that question?! Panel 2 Mae: What makes you think I pressed it without thinking!? Greg (F): I AM LITERALLY YOU. We get handed something with a button, we’re gonna press that button! Panel 3 Mae: Well now we’re BOTH stuck in a different universe, and neither of us knows how to get home! Greg (F): Is there like… an undo button on here or something? Maybe a reverse switch? Mae: I don’t know! I never looked at it before I turned it on! Panel 4 Greg (2): Uhhhh… who are you and why are you in my house? Mae: Oh good, the one thing that will improve this situation. MORE OF US.

Panel 1 Mae: So, is Tony here? I could use her help figuring out how to get this thing to get me back to my universe. Greg: Yeah, she’s in her Lab. What is that? Can I see? Panel 2 Mae: It’s the dimensional timer we used back when we first started hopping around to different universes. The trouble is, I have no idea how to dial the damned thing. I never used it - it was always Tony’s thing. Mae: Just be careful, and make sure not to- Panel 3 SFX: FWASH! Panel 4 Greg: Daaang, who pressed that button? Sure wasn’t me! Mae: I think we might be an actual menace to society.

Panel 1 Greg (F): I still can’t believe you’re here - I can’t wait to introduce you to Liz when he gets home from work. He’s gonna flip! Mae: OH! That’s right - once we destroyed the plot hole, everything it destroyed came back, didn’t it? Panel 2 Greg (F): Damn skippy! We’ve got a kid, too! A 16-year old daughter! Mae: Oh, wow! I’ve got two kids - a 14 year old and a 6 year old. Greg (F): Wait, but… ohhh, right, LIZ would have carried them, huh? That’s SO weird. Panel 3 Mae: It’s odd - when we first met, it seemed like our universes were nearly identical, but now that it’s been so long, more and more differences seem to have seeped in. Like the fact that we have two kids and you have just the one. Greg (F): Yup - James was a handful when she was younger, so I couldn’t have dealt with another. Panel 4 Mae: …you seriously named your kid “James Dean”? Greg: Okay, YES, but… in my defense, it was so her middle name could be “Tiberius”. Mae: Yeah, that’s actually a pretty solid choice.

Panel 1 Cartoonist: Howdy, folks! I’m your friendly neighborhood cartoonist here to help clarify a few things for people, since there seems to be a little confusion amongst some readers. Panel 2 Cartoonist: So this isn’t actually Mae - She’s Greg, a character from an alternate universe. In 2002, Tony and Greg (Our Greg, not this Greg) visited a universe where everyone was gender-swapped. Cartoonist: It definitely wasn’t my way of trying to work through my gender feelings at the time. Why would you even think that? Panel 3 Cartoonist: In 2008, this same alternate-universe Greg and Tony came to visit our universe, where Tony attempted to murder Tony, and after a WHOLE LOT of shenanigans, wound up heading back to their own universe. That’s where Mae is now! Panel 4 Cartoonist: I’ll be honest, I’m a little surprised so many people don’t remember this. It only happened seventeen years ago. PRACTICALLY YESTERDAY. Cartoonist: Okie-dokie! Back to our regularly scheduled idiocy!

Panel 1 Female Greg: So what brings you to this neck of the multiverse? I haven’t seen any other Gregs in over a decade. Mae: Oh, it’s “Mae” now, actually. Short for “Maelyn”. Panel 2 Female Greg: Oooh, that’s a pretty name! What made you pick it? Mae: Oh, well I used to use it when I played… wait, you haven’t heard it before? Female Greg: No… should I have? Panel 3 Mae: Well, it’s just… I usually played most games with a female avatar named “Maelyn”, so it just felt appropriate to pick it for my name. I assumed you would have had a gender-swapped alter-ego with the same name. Female Greg: Nah, I always play a female elf named “Sagus”. Panel 4 Mae: Goddamn, the femme energy in Maes and Gregs runs DEEP. Female Greg: THIS IS WHAT I’M SAYING!

Panel 1 Female Greg: Uhh, hey guys, I gotta go. A strange woman just broke into my house. Mae: Oh, we’re well acquainted, actually. Panel 2 Female Greg: Refresh my memory, because I’m a little freaked out right now. Mae: Well, let’s see - the last time I saw you, you and your friend went up to my friend’s space station and tried to kill him. Panel 3 Female Greg: What? But that was… Female Greg: …right, but he was… Female Greg: …wait, if YOU’RE… Panel 4 Female Greg: HA! YES! I KNEW the male versions of us were the outliers!! Mae: You took a few detours, but you got there in the end, that’s what matters.

Panel 1 Mae: Tony?! TONY! Are you in here? Panel 2 Mae: Okay, calm down, Mae. Think. What’s the first thing to do when something goes wrong with weird sci-fi tech? You… get Tony to fix it. Shit. Panel 3 Mae: So, plan B, you check with Dave and see if Tony has some kind of contingency plan in place. And hope like hell you didn’t just activate the “vaporize all other humans” device. Panel 4 Mae: Nah, I think I’m good. This looks totally different from his “vaporize all other humans” device. That one is red, if I remember correctly.

Panel 1 Tony: Okay, it’s in one of these boxes. Have fun. Mae: Disrespectfully, fuck you. Panel 2 Tony: I’m just kidding. I don’t remember which crate they’re in, but I know it’s one of these up front. I was using them in… something or another, I don’t remember. Mae: Your inventory system leaves a little to be desired. Panel 3 Tony: Have a look at whatever is in there, and check the battery compartment for the ones that say “Flancom”. Oh, and whatever you do, make sure not to- SFX: Click! SFX: FWASH Panel 4 Mae: Uhh… Mae: … daaang, who pressed that button? Sure wasn’t me!

Panel 1 Mae: Hey Tony, do you have any AA batteries? The TV remote keeps eating through them and I wanted to see if I could save a trip to the store. Tony: No, I only have AAA’s on hand, sorry. Panel 2 Mae: Dang it. Ah well - I’ll be back in a few. Tony: You know, I may have an alternative… though I’m not sure you’d be interested. Panel 3 Mae: What kind of alternative? Tony: I have some zero-point Casimir batteries down in storage that I made a while back. They’re the same form factor as a AA, but they draw on the vacuum energy of space, so they never run out. Panel 4 Mae: Is there a compelling reason I WOULDN’T be interested in a battery that LITERALLY LASTS FOREVER? Tony: Well YEAH. They’re not UL listed.

Panel 1 Harper: BRUUUH. Silent Hill is friggen’ amazing! The SH2 remake was awesome, but Silent Hill f is ENTIRELY my brand of horror. Mae: Right? I told you you’d enjoy Silent Hill. Harper: Are any of the other games good? Panel 2 Mae: Oh, sure - the original was my favorite, but the PS2 graphics haven’t aged well. 3 was good too, but I never played any others. I enjoyed the movie too, even though it had mixed reviews. Harper: Oh dang, there’s a movie?! We’ve gotta watch it! Mae: I’m not sure how appropriate it is… Panel 3 Harper: How come? Mae: Well, let’s just put it this way… at one point in the movie, pyramid head holds a woman up by her throat, rips her clothes off, tears the flesh off of her body in one move and hurls it at the door of a church. Panel 4 Harper: Ohhh, so it’s like a kids movie? Mae: CHRIST but your generation goes hard with horror.

Panel 1 Mae: UGGGGH. Liz: You gonna be okay, sweetheart? Panel 2 Mae: It’s either allergies or a cold, but I can’t tell which. My head feels like it’s stuffed full of wool. Liz: Is there anything I can do to help before I head to work? Mae: Not really, unless you want to put me out of my misery. Panel 3 Liz: Okay. Panel 4 Mae: I’m gonna need a little more clarity on that answer!!

Panel 1 Mae: God DAMN it! Dave: Sounds like someone is having a good time in here. What’s going on? Panel 2 Mae: This FUCKING 3D printer has started doing a thing where it just stops extruding after a seemingly random time period, and I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Dave: What troubleshooting have you done so far? Panel 3 Mae: I’ve replaced the nozzle, checked the extruder gear, checked the thermistor, made sure it’s not clogging, verified the connections for all of the motors, made sure that the stepper motors are working… Mae: Honestly, I’ve basically torn it apart and rebuilt it from the ground up. Panel 4 Dave: So… just throwing this out there, but even though it doesn’t print on paper, it IS still a printer, so… Mae: Oh god dammit, it’s MAD at me, isn’t it?

Panel 1 Mae: OOF. I don’t think I’ve ever needed to lie down this badly. Getting older sucks. Panel 2 Parker: DADDY! Can I have some Lucky Charms? Mae: Oh, god… Parker, can’t you wait a while? I JUST laid down, buddy. Panel 3 Parker: Nooo! I’m hungry though! Can I have them now pleeeeease? Mae: Bud, I just laid down, and my back is killing me. They’re all the way on top of the cabinets. Panel 4 Parker: It’s OK, daddy! I’ll get them! Mae: No, Parks, it’s… *sigh* Mae: …just… stack a few chairs on top of each other and try not to die. Narration: Parent of the year!

Panel 1 Mae: We’re kind of out of stuff to watch… should we try something new? Liz: Sure, why not? Panel 2 Liz: Oh! I heard about a show called “The Bear” - it’s supposed to be really good. It’s about a chef in Chicago. People say the food looks amazing. Mae: I’m willing to give it a try. I have yet to see a show about restaurants that actually feels like it was made by someone who actually worked in one. Panel 3 Liz: Well, from what I hear, it’s supposed to be REALLY accurate. Like, surprisingly so. Mae: Yeah, we’ll see. Nobody ever really gets it right. Panel 4 Mae: TOO REAL. TOO REAL. YES CHEF. CORNER.

Panel 1 Mae: Okayy, housekeeping time. Let’s see, what’s happened since the comic went on hiatus… Panel 2 Mae: Oh, right! Final Fantasy Tactics came out with a fully voiced remaster, so I played the hell out of that. Did a full 100% on it, of course. It took over my life. Mae: Uhhh… hrm. Oh, right - lost my job back in January. Still looking for work. Panel 3 Mae: Parker started Kindergarten! I’d have him come in here, but y’know… drawing him takes time and all that. Mae: Got a new car? I guess that’s… something? Panel 4 Mae: Honestly, not much of notice has really happened since April of 2024, you know? It’s been kind of quiet.
