I love bowling. Hate the shoes. *Shudder*

Lazuli

same, dorothy

C

"Well that clearly makes two of us Dorothy! Now, getting shoes..."

Corronchilejano

Her closest female friendship bonding activity is buying someone food.

ArdieBea

These two dorks. I do love them.

Harold

Joyce: "So, speaking of group activities, I ran into Joe a little earlier..."

Kazo

Bowling is overrated. Too loud.

Astariel

Dorothy's been to Paris? Did we know that? Last panel Joyce is adorable and funny.

Kelly (they-them)

Joyce: ooh, what about your friendship with Jennifer? The sexual tension between Dorothy and Jennifer: ... Joyce: I know you mostly did interviews with her, but would Amazi-Girl count as a platonic female friendship? Amazi-Girl's Biceps: *sweats*

Gale Tazzin

this is really funny that we've found a situation where Joyce is more socialized than someone else. also funny that it took us this long to find one

Railway Series Book Club

"cross country actually isn't very social" is there at least enough interaction at play that i don't have to entirely bin my 'what if dorothy had a yuriful sports rivalry in high school' stringboard

Astariel

Wait a sec, they never did ask Sal to come along, did they?

David M Willis

There's been a photo of the Eiffel Tower taped on Dorothy's closet door since year one, though that's always been pretty small. also the eiffel tower shows up in dorothy's horse dreams

AE Gonzalez

“Bowling wasn’t an accredited extra-curricular for college applications.” Almost forgot Dorothy is a mega-nerd.

Astariel

Oh, neat! I'm embarrassed to say I never noticed either of those.

Astariel

My best friend was on cross country in high school, and judging from the stories I heard, I think you're in the clear.

Logibear

"Hey it feels like we forgot something?" "Im sure it isnt important"

Rob McBobson

My guess is that it's gonna be implied that it happened off-panel.

5099 5618 v2.0

I didn't know she'd been to Paris. Neat.

GundamBradley

Heh, Joyce is really getting to sass her, I see.

Railway Series Book Club

circling back to the last panel bc it's a little bit vexing imo... *no idea* what regular, platonic female friendship looks like? i mean, dorothy wasn't exactly a social butterfly or anything when she was in her Miss Future President era (or ever) but like... did she not have a single female friend growing up? was her social circle solely limited to Danny and his orbiting Joe?? i'd go archive-binging to try and unravel this but it's way too late at night to deal with how gutted the new site's search function is... (rip multi-character tag searches)

Genevieve

gosh I love Joyce and Dorothy together

dorothy keener's left doinker

turns out that halloween party she went to? uninvited. just crashed it. someone pranked her and told her there would be books and she jumped in like a cave diver into a crevice. tragic

DustyMarie53

Carla’s best prank yet (she didn’t even attend the same school. She just sensed someone who could be pranked and took it)

Tsa

Dorothy done got Becky'd by Joyce

voyager-ngc5195

Aww, Dorothy never got to experience bowling alleys that smelled like ashtrays. Though granted, given sliding timescales Joyce likely didn't experience them either...

Tessea

Alternate final line "And you never will!"

Kal

wait, doesn't wearing bowling shoes seem like something joyce would have a problem with?

Sajuuk-Khar

Jennifer’s prophecy about it being Totally Normal to eat your best friend like groceries coming more and more into focus like the stars are coming right Also wow, we’re going right to the bowling alley plot? Huh

Andrew

Surely Joyce can make a more awkward segway: “speaking of balls…”

Dugga Doo

Maybe Joyce came prepared with breadbags to wear over her socks.

Zesstra

I now need Joyce to do some roller skating in front of Carla some time and actually impress her.

Shane Wegner

Whoa, I got the Bowling Alley location without even buying the DLC! “You’re subscribed to the sexytimes Patreon” FREE. BOWLING. LOCATION.

Shane Wegner

Time advancing without being a half year time skip with at least one death? ::vertigo::

Shane Wegner

They use a cleansing spray. A cleansing spray!!

Alan

That trampoline line nearly killed me.

5099 5618 v2.0

I doubt both of them call it "Paris", but I'm not sure which one does, or if that's consistent.

5099 5618 v2.0

@EmpressOfRobots Maybe we'll get a Food Wars-esque / shonen tournament mini-arc where the sports drama is dialed up to 11 and every strike or picked-up spare inspires live orgasms. Would also accept Asma finding someone she likes who also likes her and being really cute with them.

5099 5618 v2.0

Wait, Joyce can skate? Does that mean she could potentially also join the roller derby team?

DramaQueen

Not CLOSE female friendships though. I think she’s talking about a Becky-Joyce level of snuggling and holding hands female “friendship.” But yes, she could have spent most of her limited MS/JrH and HS socialization time with her long-term boyfriend Danny. He is quite high-needs.

Harold

@5099 5618 v2.0: It will be fascinating to see how the Asma aspect plays out. If hijinks have ensued and Sal was mistakenly invited, that's obviously a non-starter; but if Alice somehow miraculously does show up, her re-connection with Jennifer might torpedo that as well. Maybe this could be Bowling Night for a certain lovelorn newspaper editor...

Harold

@DramaQueen: But a good egg

David M Willis

well, my youth group did so much roller skating, and I still absolutely cannot skate

Andrea Andrew

I’m not hearing a no, David. 😁😁😅

Andrea Andrew

Yeah… there’s a good chance Dorothy is basically crushing/lusting after their whole women group, and Joyce is simply the one she’s in love with.

Andrea Andrew

Yeah… there’s a good chance Dorothy is basically crushing/lusting after their whole women group, and Joyce is simply the one she’s in love with. Joyce: what about Carla? (Dorothy thinking about Carla’s legs)*blushes* Joyce:Dina and Becky? Dorothy: hate sex is certainly appealing… Joyce: Marcy? Dorothy: those thighs… Joyce:Sal? Dorothy: gender swapped Walky? Yeah, we’re friends.

5099 5618 v2.0

@DMW Ok, but what about tricks? If skate-nights are a regular thing, folk must at least have learned to skate backwards without wiping out, I assume.

Mitzi B.

when you're too nerdy for bowling, you're a nerd indeed!

Logibear

flashback to when Dorothy realized and crashed into Ambers room on accident while she was pumping iron.

Harold

@Logibear: Amber: "How YOU doin'?"

Maude Reads Things

It's a miracle Dorothy had any kind of social circle going into college lbr

5099 5618 v2.0

@Harold Bowling night for all! (Seriously, this cast needs a night of fan service and/or low stress fun, and I have no idea where the nearest hot springs would be)

Kelly (they-them)

My older brother did cross country. One day he surprised us by coming home during the middle of practice. He needed to poop. I know that doesn't answer your question about the amount of social interaction in cross country, but I thought maybe you could work that into your stringboard some how

Alexandra Falk

This sorta feels like a retcon, but it's one that makes Dorothy much more interesting. Not that I'm one to talk in any way. As someone who very frequently identifies with Dorothy (at least, with a younger version of myself), I myself didn't really figure out female friendship until college, either.
