Smoochie

He’s about to learn accidentally, isn’t he?

Maude Reads Things

Two of them ended pretty yikes-ly (though they were pretty cute before the end) but Walky and Dorothy still own me entirely.

Andrea Andrew

Who’s the .5, Walky? Lucy, or AmaziGurl?

Megh

So I assume the "half girlfriend" is referring to Amber?

The25th

I was thinking amber because they never like officially got together. Just some make outs and dry humping

Jeremy AR

I don't think Amber appreciate being called a .5

Ragtime

Dorothy, Amber and Lucy kinda imploded after a week so maybe she only counts as half?

C

"Yeah, though I'm pretty sure my current girlfriend Dorothy has a massive crush on Joyce, and vice versa." *realization hits Billifer*

Grimeagle

On the one hand he wasn't with Lucy very long. On the other hand he didn't really have a properly established relationship with Amber?

HenryVolt

Juggling several different on and off relationships within a 5 to 6 month period does sound like a high risk game...Also that auto correct jab was a deep cut.

Harold

@The25th: Yes, this. Walky and Amber never were official. (I was about to say they never had sex, but Joyce among others would beg to differ.)

Railway Series Book Club

oh my god is there going to be a head-on collision between "hey walky i think your girlfriend is fucking joyce" and "hey billie its really weird that everyone's calling you jennifer today"

Harold

Dumbing of Age, Book 15: I HAVE, Astoundingly, Had 2.5 Girlfriends

HenryVolt

Funny considering that canonically Amber and Walkys going not steady lasted longer than him and Lucy being solid for a week.

Andrea Andrew

And now, Dorothy is about to leave him for Joyce.

Harold

I love the way Alice and Billifer (can we just go back to Billie already?) are gazing at each other all through this strip. They're adorable.

Megh

Please let this happen, it'd be goddamn hilarious

Andrea Andrew

When they actually get together, I can see her torturing Walky for that.

Harold

@Smoochie: Well, only if Billifer was intuitive enough to figure out from the blindingly obvious context clues that Joyce was talking about Dorothy. Which, given that we're talking about Billifer here, is not exactly a bet worth taking.

TobyTura

What an odd thing to say to someone who Just said they really like dotty/walky

TobyTura

This current storyline has me feeling.... bad....? for Walky...? Never thought I'd see the day, really. (/lh)

Smoochie

Either Jennifer has a moment of intuition, locks in and breaks the news to him. Or Billie stumbles into it, has the realization out loud and Walky learns that way. I’m not sure there is a middle ground.

Mariah

I really don't think walky will care joe yes he has trauma but walky has been checked out for a while since lucy I do think that the ethical thing for dorothy to do would be to break up with him.

Andrea Andrew

Sorry. I thought we were covering Wally’s break ups.

Andrea Andrew

Man, Walky was kinda terrible to Amber.

tifani

2.5 because Walky was dating Amber but not Amazigirl.

tifani

Considering her lack of self esteem and dissociative identity disorder I really don’t think she’d object to being called half a person. :(

Megh

If Walky is counting her as the 0.5 I hope it's cause their situation was more FWB, and not that But who knows for sure

Sajuuk-Khar

Walky with the emotional honesty hitting us right in the teeth dang

darklion

I've seen worse. He's right about on the line between "I dated them just long enough to prove I had more than sexual feelings for these people" and manwhore.

MrShoggoth

“Kinda”? Look at the Halloween party

Kelly (they-them)

Haha, I love the detail of Alice consistently misrembering Walky's name as "Wally." This is also a really nice interaction to see when contrasted with Alice's introduction to the comic. I really didn't like her at first but I wasn't considering the context properly. Alice was being confronted with a lot of trauma unexpectedly - of course she'd be standoffish! It's also nice to have confirmation she wasn't intentionally being a dick to Walky in their last encounter. She genuinely didn't know his name and was trying to leave as quickly as possible

Kelly (they-them)

My thought is that Amber is the half because they were romantically and sexually entangled, but didn't actually date properly

NinjaZaku

Him recognizing that they could count as yikes is...a good sign? I think?

Billie looks relaxed and happy. Good for her. (/Looks up to see if other shoe is visible, yet....)

Jasmijn Wellner

I can't believe Walky is beating me by 1.5 girlfriends 😭 But seriously, they're all doing so well! It's nice to see, though it means the drama can't be far off. I give it maybe 2 strips.

Smoochie

Is Lucy out of pocket for probably having a demon cackle over Dorothy leaving him for Joyce?

Girlycore

I mean, he also got broken up with by all of them as well, it's not like he's ladyhopping around on purpose.

Steve McSheffrey

Why 'Walky'? Was there someone with a similar nickname in the Paleolithic Era?

Simon Magid

He beat me by 1.5 girlfriends, too. Then again she and I have stuck together ever since we met. So maybe I am not doing so bad after all. :)

Jasmijn Wellner

Congrats! My ex broke up with me over a decade ago. It was honestly the right thing, we were both young and terrible for each other and I was never going to break up with her. Fucked me up for a while tho.

zee

I mean they never really dated so I'd say that .5 is pretty solid actually

zee

He and Lucy didn't last but they were using official boy/girlfriend titles. Amber never crossed that line, they admitted mutual feelings and did some heavy petting but both felt too guilty/weird to actually make it official. And then Halloween happened, so :/

zee

Original run Wally and dotty have me in a chokehold. The reboot tho? There's a reason I only care about Joyce cheating on Joe and not dot on walky. This reunion started on the premise of being a mess and it doesn't even have the sexy taboo (I assume that's the appeal?) of amber and walky

Harrison Fuller

Just got an email which said Tricerahoodie!Dina reached her goal. So congratulations on that. Can’t wait to get mine.

TobyTura

maybe or maybe not but i still feel bad for him. aside from his gf tiptoeing the line of cheating, he's kind of been a sex doll for dotty to distract herself with. which is fine if there's a mutual understanding but not so fine if there isn't. to me, anyway. ALSO there's always been a racial, objectifying aspect from walky's various partners (constantly constantly constantly referred to as caramel) that I've never *loved*

Maybeeus

IT'S WALKY!!! I've had a lot of thoughts about Walky and his place in the story recently ATM. He's spent most of his time in the story in relationships which is how he's defined in the cast. He was with Dorothy for most of the story and then he had the thing with Amber and then Lucy which is who he's spent most of the post timeskip story with. Dorothy and him as they currently are are unfortunately doomed unless Walky starts to actually stop and look at himself and finally start growing as a person. The whole Incelerator thing has started to kick certain gears into shift that i REALLY want to see play out. Honestly my biggest wish this chapter is to have an encore of the Joe and Dorothy scene but with Walky and Joyce. Of all the interactions i want to see Joyce and Walky actively confronting each other is up the highest because of how their dynamic has been the entire comic. Walky has admittedly been a fucking asshole to Joyce for most of the comics run and even then when repeatedly given the chance to do right by her has done wrong unless strongarmed into doing so by Dorothy. He's gotten better but i think retroactively it's hard to look back at those early chapters and not think something is up. Walky has through most of the comic been coasting easily going from one relationship right into the other and basically never being forced to grow as an individual. When faced with Joyce he's in front of someone he's consistently treated super badly and actively fumbled into the negatives during his first interaction but in another timeline he woulda done anything for her and grew so much. But instead this time around she's the one who's grown. She would do ANYTHING for Dorothy while Walky can only bank on being allowed to hit it because he's goofy. The barrier between these two characters i think at it's core IS Dumbing of Age. Joyce despite everything is constantly willing to endure everything Walky does, she keeps coming back and keeps letting him get away with all of this stuff, because he's kinda silly with it. I CANNOT get into JoyceXWalky in the year 2025 right now so i will abstain and only say that i REALLY want to see these two interact and how their whole Deal collides in this very specific way.

Mariah

yeah im biracial believe me I get it. It really depends on the person some take offense to stuff like caramel some don't I personally take offense to "exotic" I would someday like walky to really maybe have a realization about his issues related to race he started with standing up with his mom and lucy but I get the notion that he has a lot of internalized issues to sort out and would be better off being single for a while.

ScrimpArt

i just realised ur right. dorothy you're going to super hell
