Maybeeus

C

You got this! I presume.

Maude Reads Things

For the love of god, no, don't bring YOUR phone but bring SOME means of being able to get into contact with other people in case, God forbid, there's an emergency

Ria

What if they kissed at the protest 👀👀👀

C

I'd love it, and if Joyce's mom ever saw it, she'd lose her mind, which is a bonus.

TobyTura

LIIIKE you can buy phones for cheap and just not put them on a plan? i have an android that i use on wifi purely for android exclusive apps lol. 20 bucks

Smoochie

Oh. I’m banking on it—especially if there’s a camera with a reporter present. Plus points if this is how Joe and Walky (and the rest of the cast) find out.

Smoochie

As much as I might hem and haw about the aftermath, Walky and Joe— It’s things like this that make Joyce and Dorothy such a sapphic given. They keep experiencing new things with each other, hitting uncharted territories. Underage at a bar, first protest/civic event, discovering music. It’s peak college I’m afraid.

Harold

I love the way that they're clinging to each other in the last panel - it's heartwarming, but at the same time Willis does a great job at conveying their fear as they prepare to enter the encampment. They give each other strength.

Two interleaved sequences here. First the two borderless wide-angle frames show their arrival at the protest and a (very real) fence now separating those committed to the protest from the ongoing lives being "protected" from the protest. Second, we have a sequence of Joyce and Dorothy disclosing that they know of the risk of the situation. They call back to their dialogue in the iguana caper, but they show considerable trepidation, looking away from each other, nervously monitoring the threat level, Joyce's expression in particular is the exact inverse of the delight she showed when she previously uttered the same line (https://www.dumbingofage.com/2018/comic/book-9-comic/01-flyin-to-the-red/subterfuge/).

William Lewis

Oh, my, that is what just flashed through my mind having been a stills photographer at a No Kings protest...

William Lewis

Some one needs to teach them the phrase "burner phone"

Maybeeus

It's okay if they huddle together hard enough like scared baby orangutans nothing can hurt them!

Ed Marshall

That should be a book title or something

Verteiron

They're gonna get caught kissing for Pride or something on the local news, aren't they?

Andrea Andrew

I noticed. Wonder if they will call attention to it

Maybeeus

"Now all of Indiana knows you're gay."

The25th

Does the lack of fuckface make it more subversive

Bagge

Seems like subversiveness is escalating. Who could have known?

Smoochie

I heard this in the watchman from Mulan’s voice.

Packy Anderson

Was the fence opened to let them in, or did it suddenly appear right after they arrived to ensure that they were the LAST to arrive?

Dan Rabin

I think the timing is a coincidence: the authorities want to keep the protesters in, and our duo happened to arrive just before that segment of the fence was installed. At the author's level, this shows that they are very seriously in with the protesters, no matter how scary the conflict becomes.

Jasmijn Wellner

They're gonna get caught kissing at this protest on the local news, aren't they?

Harold

I can envision a scenario in which Dorothy and Joyce get separated if/when shit starts getting real at the protest; then when they find each other again, they just spontaneously and joyfully fly into each other’s arms.

Kelly (they-them)

How quickly can you get a burner phone? I don't think they had time to get one
