The face-off between Jenny and Vera. I owuld have loved to have this go on further, but Vera isn't one to go on and on. She says done and that's it. I surmise she's been thinking about this for a time and trying to put together something brief. Jenny is a result of her Aordian heritage. They are very accepting of break-ups and separations as all of their relationships are transitory due to their far-flung interstellar culture. They don't have exclusive monogamous long term relationships and marriage is ancient history. So how would that past have affected people's attitudes? Would they eventually break out of the behavior we see on our planet?
I'm not one for far flung far future societies in Science fiction that exactly mirror those on present day earth. It doesn't make sense to me. What if there was no Victorian Romanticism or Christian morality? There would be vast differences. Jane Austen romance wouldn't work in Ancient Babylon so why should it work in a culture as many years in the future as Babylon was in the past.
On those lonely dateless Saturday nights one tends to think a lot of other possible worlds because this one can be so disappointing.
Vera here refers to Doctor Franklin Enstine who she had a relationship at the end of Battle of the Robofemoids. It's also referred in the opening pages of this comic. As for Jenny being so certain three furries can't take her on? She might be over estimating her chances. She hasn't gotten a good look at Fluffy yet.
