I swear I head this faint rumble. Thought it was a small earthquake.
Then I realized that was the sound of yuri shippers everywhere screaming.
EDIT: About the only way this could be more mortifying for Kat is if next Friday's page is a "not what it looks like" moment where everyone ends up thinking like Paz.

aww...am i the only on who's too busy cringing at paz right now to appreciate the expression on kats face. she's made an idiot of herself....again.
though i might just be feeling sorry for both of them on fridays page when the aftermath of this whole thing is revealed. it just depends how well kat takes it.

Man, can they make it any more awkward? KAT: You think I'm a...? PAZ: Kat, I mean, I know I can talk to birds and spend most of my time hanging out with birds, but... I'm not a bird. I'm sorry. KAT: I am not attracted to birds, Paz. PAZ: Oh. Oh! Well great then, what are you doing this Saturday? Unless and until this is directly contradicted by Tom or the comic, this shall be canon. I like Paz, but she took on a big assumption here, just because someone of the same gender complements you, does not mean anything. If they complement each other, I'd say that means a lot.

I'm thinking Kat will probably tell Paz a story about a summer romance from summer holidays. We already know about Aly, and I think she wants to clear this up soon to avoid future embarrassment.

Kat is prolly not a lesbian, since she liked male characters in the past. Bisexual...maybe =P
This same thing happened to a friend of mine, quite funny to hear after the fact--I'm sure this will be the story that brings them closer together =D

My head is exploding from trying to understand some of the replies, so I will say, let's just wait to see how the situation folds itself out.

Also:Tom just forestalled another pairing thing. Like ZimmyxJack, he knows when to tell readers not to even go there.

This is a lot less blunt than that though. (If it's even comparable to that situation.)

Incoming huge take-that against all the AnniexKat shippers. Or this: KAT: You think I'm a...? PAZ: Kat, I mean, I know I can talk to birds and spend most of my time hanging out with birds, but... I'm not a bird. I'm sorry. KAT: I am not attracted to birds, Paz. PAZ: Oh. Oh! Well great then, what are you doing this Saturday? Or thiiiiiis: This is just perfect

Now I ship it SO MUCH. In other news, why would that be such a big assumption? Some people here seem to think that it was the worst thing that Paz could have said, but hey firstly Paz's from a deeply catholic country so I bet she would freak out about it even if she doesn't think it bad, combined with that she really likes Kat so she does not want to make her sad. And, well, if Paz thinks Kat's a lesbian she's not the first. She is kinda butch and the praise was very empathic. It's not a stupid assumption, albeit a wrong one. Also: I really like Paz! ;D

Paz is Spanish, right? Not very weird for girls in Spain to be very close/affectionate so I don't think it's just the compliment that made her think that of Kat. She's probably thought it for a long time. Kat and Annie are both very odd, usually separate from the rest of the group, Kat has very boyish interests (how many tech students are female? answer: in the US less than 1 in 4), and of course the haircut. Paz and other students have probably all suspected for a long time. Paz is only reacting like this because Kat has pulled her away from the group and telling her (in a boyish way) how hot she is. I don't think it's at all weird for Paz to assume Kat is hitting on her. The reaction is a bit awkward, but Paz is shy and probably doesn't know how to handle it.

it's no surprise that Kat would like the sun better, it provides the energy for life on Earth! she would like that sort of thing, science and such.

The moon is absolutely vital to life on earth as well, though.

Paz doesn't strike me as particuarly shy (she was pretty forward when it came to Matt) but more as just really really awful at reading social cues. I sympathise.

Or thiiiiiis: This is just perfect No. It's missing the fourth panel where Janet beats the stuffing out of Willie for drooling over other girls.

Oh I guess both Paz and Kat are at fault here. Kat was a bit heavy on those compliments. I think Paz may have been hit on before since something seem to click in her mind on panel 3. I guess that Kat will explain the misunderstanding and Paz would feel even worse for assuming that.
For some reason I can't help but think that someone's going to run out of there crying.

How embarassing. For Kat now, and for Paz when she finds out she just leaped to completely the wrong conclusion. I just hope Kat doesn't rush after her and yell something loudly within the full hearing of the gathering in the main room. Friday's comic: point of view is back in the common room, with a word bubble coming out from around the corner, "Paz! I'm not gay!" Then someone says "Hey, speaking of which..." and launches into the third story. Ok, probably not.

Also, as someone who has said almost the exact same thing to a girl but did mean it "that way," I get where Paz's reaction is coming from.
