Cybele is playing a modified version of Pascal’s Wager, which can be summed up as “I choose to believe this, not because there is any logic or evidence to back it up, but because wouldn’t it suck if I didn’t?”

Cybele: Oh, he could get into plenty of trouble. But it won’t be because I let him down.
Cohen: Do you . . . love him?
Cybele: I love him the most!
(FLASH)
Cohen: Then can’t you stop and consider . . .
That maybe, sometimes, the best thing for him would be . . . to disobey him?
Cybele: There’s a lot I can consider, Mr. Cohen. But what would be the good of it? Can you keep from crying by considering things? If he has no plan to get us out of this, refusing to believe in him won’t fix that. And if it turns out he had it covered all along, I will have been sad for no reason.
So I choose to believe he has a plan!
(Headline: Being Subdued in Boston Subway)
Bennett, in hoodie: Dammit, why didn’t I make a plan for this?
Chapter 6 ~ End
Bwnnett.
What if…BENNETT is Nevada-san!
Poor Cybele.
Just sayin’, but the fourth panel is a wee bit busy.
Bennett is no George Washington. George would have had a plan. ;)
Clearly the solution is for Bennett to seduce Cohen.
I seriously doubt it’s possible for this to go any other route given Erin’s tastes, even if it may take a while.
I don’t think Erin would torture us with that.
This is a brilliant idea.
Hear, hear! It’d be hilarious. :D
To be honest, I kind of saw this coming. Doesn’t make it any less hilarious, though. Adult Cybele is pretty!
It’s been interesting to see how long it took people to go from “who could it be?” to “hm, he’s an option” to “yeah, I bet it’s him.”
Thanks! She was a lot of fun to design :)
Eh, dude, you say things are “obvious” regardless of whether I planned them from the start or hadn’t even considered the idea, so I’ll take that with a grain of salt.
What, not shipping Cohen x Bennett x Sparrow x Patrick yet? Tsk, tsk.
Same here. :P
Older Cybele (how is that pronounced anyway?) Looks pretty.
It’s pronounced /ˈsɪbəliː/ (IPA symbols).
And thanks ^_^
