Honsetly after striking out and having zero luck with dating apps this definitely got my heart beating like a train and its only page 6, WOW this is good story building!!!
With vore being so casual, it makes sense that there would be social norms for it. There seems to be some expectation not to do it in public, as seen in Health Class and Movie Night, so it's not just seen as grabbing a quick meal. It's like a form of affection more intimate than sex, and as such it is banned in public spaces and frowned upon to get it from random people.
I agree that it makes sense to imply a set of social norms for vore in any setting where it's supposed to be prevalent, even if they are actually nonsense under closer scrutiny.
That said, I wanna clarify that the only comics of mine that are explicitly in the same setting are Roomies and Family Reunion. Every comic takes place in its own self-contained universe that follows its own set of rules unless stated otherwise, just because I don't want to constrain myself. For example, oral vore digestion takes all night in Roomies, about an hour in Movie Night, and the length of an orgasm in Health Class. Internal prey are inaudible from the outside in (Un)Birth Control but they can have full conversations here. Here, "pred" and "prey" seem to be socially-understood titles that people give themselves, while it seems like everyone in Roomies could go either way on a whim, and vore seems to be nonexistent among humans in Cultural Sensitivity. I use whatever set of rules will serve the story.
The only rule is that it has to appeal to me personally, otherwise I wouldn't be drawing it. That's made "casual" a de facto rule so far, but who knows what my brain will do in the future?

So does that mean the only consistent rule is that vore is casual?
