Well, he still lacks in judgement if he scrolled right past the goddamned Ding-Dong bandit. Joyce would totally punch anyone for Dorothy, no questions asked.

2023-04-08 06:08:40 +0000 UTCPart of me is thinking ‘Poor, directionless Dorothy will have to pick a new reason to get out of bed each morning, like the rest of us not-president-becoming peasants.’ I tease, but this is a good time for the tree of her identity and self esteem to put down additional roots and diversify.

2023-04-08 06:06:04 +0000 UTCThe thing is...maybe Dorothy is technically correct in her statements, if not her actions. Maybe it WAS a mistake to let Walky go...they weren't working real well when she did, but there were other things they could've tried. Maybe it WAS a mistake to let Walky in on how much Lucy cared for him, when she could've easily gotten back together with him then. But even if either or both of those things were wrongs, adding this one won't make a right. In those first two instances, she could've been a little more selfish and it would've been justifiable. Lucy would've been hurt in the second case, but it'd be a little bit on her for not voicing her own feelings for months. But this? This is straight-up boyfriend-stealing, and if "successful," it's only going to hurt everyone involved, including Dorothy. The silver lining is that this incredibly dumb plan might be leading into the honest talk with supportive friends that's what she REALLY needs, but it's a coin flip whether Walky can keep it in that kind of healthy space.

2023-04-08 05:59:30 +0000 UTCI was afraid of this. Walky really bought in to Dorothy's dream, and he is (at least for the duration of this one strip) unable to imagine her not attaining it without an opponent blocking her. I hope he calms down a bit and listens to what she has started to say in the third and fourth panels.

2023-04-08 04:18:21 +0000 UTCWe know what you'd LIKE her to say to Joyce (I admit I'd like that too), but what she's not ready to say to her right now is probably along the lines of, "I'm not the focused, super-together person you think I am - not anymore. And it's scaring the hell out of me."

2023-04-08 04:07:39 +0000 UTCI hope Joyce (and Joe) are looking for Dorothy and show up to help her. Perhaps she’ll say something she’s not ready to say to Joyce.
