WHAT HAPPENED WITH AMAZIGIRL???

MrShoggoth

On the bright side, Dotty, plenty of politicians have done so!

Uniquitous

This is the beginning of Dark-Side Dorothy's villain arc, isn't it?

wyatt

every all timer dorothy moment recently is immediately followed by a subsequent All Timer Dorothy Moment™️

Ragtime

She's probably referring to texting Joyce.

Gwen Sanger

Not in the fanfic I'm currently writing in my head

Ragtime

Anti-Dorothy: Year One.

Sajuuk-Khar

“You never sent like, a dick pic as a joke or anything?” “I was dating Amber and now I’m dating Sal. How do you think that would go.” “…I see your point.”

Smoochie

That’s a maybe. We are still working out the rigid/bending definitions of whether half naked selfies are cheat—- Oh who am I kidding. Yes. That’s where we are at.

Proto_Eevee

That's being a bit absolutist, dan

Andrea Andrew

Doesn’t Danny still think of Ethan, occasionally?

David M Willis

how many times does he send him pictures of his dick

Maude Reads Things

Wow, this comic is DETERMINED to speed run Dorothy to a total breakdown XD

Andrea Andrew

Good point. I guess Dorothy can now do the right thing. Excellent work, emphasizing that Dorothy can’t send sexy pics to Joyce while dating Walky.

darklion

down the rabbit hole we go

Harold

"Wait, your partner is *Walky*, right? Then it's totally OK!"

Kelly (they-them)

I'm not sure because I'm not subscribed to the other Patreon

Andrea Andrew

Based on future panels, she’ll get support, and hopefully a chance to set things right.

C.T. Phipps

You didn't accidentally cheat. You just flirt...oh right.

C.T. Phipps

Danny is in full passive aggressive revenge mode.

C.T. Phipps

"I'm actually impressed you're alive." "They're friends! They keep insisting!"

C.T. Phipps

"I tried to tell Walky but he just wanted to have sex!" Which happened to me in a video game ALPHA PROTOCOL where my player character slept with the main villain/love interest before she could confess she'd arranged my burn notice as well as ruined my life.

Grace Serenity

The name of the comic is DUMBING of age for a reason!

Grace Serenity

Darth Dotty and her horny sith empire!

C

"I mean, not only is it morally wrong, but my current romantic partner would break me like a kit-kat bar even if I was terrible enough to do it, so..."

Grace Serenity

In with the Captain America video "So you've accidentally cheated on your significant other and are trying to blame bisexuality..."

C

I assume she uses accidentally because she never once allowed herself to even consider that she could have feelings for Joyce so she subconsciously justified every interaction as somehow not a thing until she was directly confronted about it and forced to finally self-reflect.

Andrea Andrew

Hopefully now, Dorothy can stop blaming her bisexuality.

Bronxden

Cheating arc or cheating fantasy arc? kinda feeling bad for walky even more.

Bagge

This seems more like a Jennifer-situation than a Danny-situation

Private me

I don't know if I would call what she did "cheating" but Im prepared for everyone in the comments to argue about it.

Onyx

Both fair, and Danny's last line is PERFECT for Biphobic people.

Luin

imo something like this was honestly necessary. she was never going to properly reflect on her bs until outcomes became too hard to ignore. also mr willis uh. unrelated but the site on mobile safari is... pulling up full screen ads for leidos. like full screen coverage.

Taffy

I love the amount of sass Danny's giving her.

Packy Anderson

Who knows? The future panels are only a year away, so they're probably just a week away at most in comic time...

E

A speedrun that only takes several months!

Jey Siksa

Wow, Danny ya gotta wait until someone is president to assassinate them

Dan Rabin

If there's no tushie, Joyce isn't interested.

Dan Rabin

Hm. Dorothy thinks she's having a bisexuality problem when she's really having a multiple-love problem.

T Campbell

Danny's not wrong, but his emotional history isn't quite as squeaky-clean as how he's presenting it here. He *was* tempted and flummoxed by Ethan, and that was when he was in a similar place to where Dorothy is now--working his way up to acknowledging a same-sex crush for the first time and figuring out what it meant for him. It's true that he didn't cross any real moral lines there, and he and Ethan were able to unpack the issue while being true to their principles...but there was a moment between them in the park that felt like it could have gone the other way. Had Ethan leaned in for the kiss then, Danny probably wouldn't have this precious moral high ground now. There's a point, I think, just BEFORE one comes out to oneself as bi where some transgressions are a bit more forgivable. Danny couldn't have been prepared for his feelings for Ethan because he'd never had (acknowledged) feelings like that for a guy before. Dorothy could tell herself that teaching Joyce how to masturbate was just a thing that close gal pals do, because she'd never had (acknowledged) feelings like that for a girl before. But somewhere in the course of developing and sending that titty pic, she seems to have reached self-awareness. Of course, the framing of Dorothy's question didn't leave Danny much room to reflect on the confusing interlude in his life/bife. It's kind of amazing that she self-corrected her statements so as not to offend any one-eyed people who might be listening in, but she had no similar anxiety about reciting one of the most pernicious stereotypes about bi people--that they're incapable of fidelity. She really was so desperate and guilty, she was willing to normalize cheating itself as "just a thing that happens sometimes when you're bi."

True friends insist on you staying alive.

Shane Wegner

In Dorothy’s favor, teaching/encouraging/catalyzing Joyce to masturbate had positive results. Joyce had a sexual blossoming, did it more, shook off repression, got more in tune with herself, and was better able to open up and explore sexually with Joe, which has been a net positive so far. Even if Dorothy had unknown-even-to-herself ulterior motives, her primary goal of helping Joyce worked out. It was risky and could have backfired if Joyce had panicked, but it worked out. Dorothy followed the Campsite Rule and left Joyce better off than when she found her.

Rich Holmes

Dorothy, you can't control how you feel. You can control what you do.

Rainfall

Could be completely wrong and you could be completely right, but I don't think Dorothy meant it that way...? I think she meant the exact thing you were alluding to, where you can be bi but not yet fully know or be willing to confront being bi, and that can cause you to do things that are over the line; in Dorothy's case, fully by accident. (She would not have sent Joyce a photo if Amber hadn't poked her in exactly the right way by suggesting that it was the platonic thing to do, and that trying to scrub the photo from the cloud (as Dorothy had come asking her to help with) was the suspicious, homoerotic thing to do.) (Like, yes, Amber only makes half a case for this, but there's still real anxiety all over Dorothy's face before she takes her first photo.) Also, while the laundry room incident would definitely come closer to cheating than the "joke" reciprocal lewd, as Willis lampshaded in a recent unused strips post, neither Joyce nor Dorothy was actually dating anyone back then, so it wouldn't have been cheating.

Rainfall

Oh man tomorrow's comic comment section is gonna be unreadable isn't it.

joe mcguire

Danny, just again, being a pillar of tact and support 🤦🏻 Also, what about all that stuff with Ethan, you jerk? You were totally dating Amber and having multiple steamy interactions with him that you kept from Amber because you had the reasonable conclusion that her boyfriend and ex boyfriend flirting behind her back would trigger her insecurities.

Girlycore

People have different definitions for the word "cheating", but I definitely think "lying and hiding things" aren't any better. Danny hasn't been on screen much, and Sal has smoothed out a lot of his sharp edges for us, but this feels very on-brand for him.

Girlycore

I mean, she definitely CAN. It's just about whether she's going to be a sneak about it and not give Walky a chance to opt-in or opt-out of that kind of a relationship. (Or Joyce vis-a-vis that kind of friendship/relationship). What she's doing right now is untenable, though.

Girlycore

I don't think I would have gone to Danny for this. It's objectively funnier in-comic, so I'm glad Dorothy did, but I probably would have gone to someone who has been aware of their bisexuality for more than five minutes. Not my ex who is also a baby gay.

Ronokki

Dorothy has a fairly small social circle, I am not sure who else she knows well enough to actually have this conversation with

Ronokki

Kinda of weird to put moral baggage on Danny for thing he didn't do because "he totally could have if things went differently". I mean if things went differently he also probably would have answered differently since he would have gone through a different experience

Daniel

Dorothy's could have asked that question in less confrontational way. "How often do you accidentally cheat?" is almost guaranteed to get someone to get defensive.

Seth Aaron Hershman has they/she pronouns

other biromantic or bisexual main characters she knows: - ruth: would murder her for asking - jennifer: still in deep denial - dina: famously loyal - booster: she does not want the answer they would give

Ronokki

Calling it "multiple steamy interactions" is wild to me. They started hanging out as friends and Danny developed his first gay crush. He worked though realizing he was bisexual and let Ethan know about how he felt only after he and amber/amzi-girl broke up and even THEN didn't act on his feelings beyond confessing them because he felt like it would be a betrayal.

Harold

Dorothy's former roommate Sierra isn't a main character in the comic, but she *is* canonically bisexual, and is currently in a healthy and thriving poly relationship. She could probably give Dorothy advice about lots of things.

Paul McCubbrey

Danny doesn't know that Dorothy's question is personal. Or non-hypothetical.

Harold

@Paul McCubbrey: I'm not on the "Danny's being an asshole" train, but this seems like an overly generous reading. He may not know the specifics of Dorothy's situation, but he's not an idiot - why *else* would she be asking a question like this, if it wasn't directly applicable to her?

Donny K

Ah, the college years~

Rob McBobson

@Girlycore: Personally, I'd say that lying and hiding things are, on the whole, less bad than cheating. There's no necessary form of cheating, but lying and hiding things can be necessary.

Andrea Andrew

Oh yeah. Sierra is probably also aware of Dorothy’s love for Joyce. She was the one Dorothy told about the Book of Ruth (in hindsight, that was probably around the time Mx Willis decided they were gonna be a thing). Funny how we never questioned Dorthy knowing that much about lesbian weddings.

Seth Aaron Hershman has they/she pronouns

Carla's AU version was not into non-ladies and I assume that carries over to here, but frankly these days who the hell knows? The last Walkyverse comic came out a decade ago! None of that shit matters!

Teh Moose

Dorothy and Amazi-girl totally banged, didn't they

Private me

Jennifer would absolutly be a "its not cheating if its two women" kind of person and would make the whole situation worse

Ronokki

Sierra could probably give some good advice but both based on the interaction levels and the roommate change request they were "roommates who were friendly" and less "are friends"

David M Willis

I think Carla has been pretty consistent (and belligerent) about only being into ladies.

Sajuuk-Khar

IIRC, at the time Amber and AG were much less defined and more fluid in state? Like, he started out having sex with AG, then AG kind of volunteered Amber’s (enthusiastic) participation? Only later did AG and Amber start acting independently in like, defined instances I feel like it’s not so much cheating as an impromptu headmate threesome
