So has Sarah said anything about the crawling into bed or

Dorothy: sorry I flashed you my panties, Sarah. Sarah:….I didn’t actually mind that.

Harold

@Morgan Byrd: I think Sarah has resigned herself to the fact that she's going to have two roommates for the foreseeable future

That's very sweet, but I'm pretty sure you can't fix trauma that way.

Are room doors just unlocked in this dorm to make the story doable?

"Maybe if I just bonk your head reallllly hard with mine that'll make the trauma go away" "Sadly no, that would just give both of us a new trauma"

Joyce to Dorothy: You are one dynamite gal.

Headcannon: that "Yeah" sounded exactly like the one at the end of Dredd (2012)

Why would they need to be? It's Joyce and Sarah's room, and Joyce had her girlfriend Dorothy in bed with her. Dorothy had a nightmare and got out of bed. Now she's getting back into bed. No unlocked doors necessary. Now, Joyce's comment YESTERDAY about whether her dreams about Dorothy appearing in her room at night and climbing into her bed, THAT might require an unlocked door. Or at least Dorothy having a door code.

@Harold Such is the way of dorm roomies when their roomie has a new boo[1] [1] - Especially when they can't go to the other person's room lest drama fall from the sky and crush them into paste.

@Logibear Going straight for impact play? I suspect someone had a side bet on that outcome.

Joyce is great at many things. Mental health ain't one of them-

It’s generally not a good early sign in a relationship if you think you can fix your partner. I mean, offering them stability and a safe space will help, but folks ultimately deal with trauma themselves, with the help of professionals and good meds. Your significant other is not your therapist.

Joyce: I shall fix you with my sexual healing right now! Sarah: ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY NOT.

Dan Rabin

Joyce herself experienced similar problems for a long time after her encounter with Ryan at the bad party, and she knows full well that her apparent recovery didn't come about this way.

Why would Dorothy need a door code to get into a room? She's on the same floor a few doors down and unless I'm very inobservant I don't think they've shown keypads on the doors? They probably just leave the doors unlocked, but I wish they didn't. Given the many Bad Things that have happened to them, I think a lil door locking can only be a good thing.

Girlycore

Not with that attitude.

Kiss girlfriend, make her trauma (and thoughts) go poof.

Sleep lock-picking?

Joyce and Dorothy continue to remind me of all my own questionable relationship choices, more so than any other DoA pairing. I latched onto a relationship while in a life-goals crisis like Dorothy, and in my experience, that's not a recipe for love success. Before that was my longest-lasting college relationship. And that relationship was (1) a necessary part of my emotional development that I’m glad I had and (2) doomed by issues neither of us were mature enough to address. A relationship is a helpful framework for addressing certain issues like that. But a framework is not a fix. Dorothy shares my need for some kind of high achievement and my college girlfriend’s tendency to minimize her own trauma; Joyce shares some of college me’s determined naivete and college her’s tendency to minimize potential conflict. Not telling Dorothy where things stand with Joe is a very my-college-girlfriend move. All this has made it difficult for me to comment on recent events, because I feel like anything less than a novel-length post is going to result in my views getting simplified. I've got no desire to get lumped in with the "Jorothy 5eva" messaging, but even less desire to get lumped in with the "SUFFER, SINNERS" crowd. I definitely believe their love is real and their feelings are valid, just as I did for, say, Danny and Amazi-Girl. But Danny and Amazi-Girl didn't get an epic symbol-wedding. Where's that leave me? I guess at a point where I'm not ready to treat these two as #goals but I'm prepared to admit I may someday be convinced. As I've said before, there've been other Willis pairings that surprised me by going the distance. And ironically, I'm more inclined to visualize their success when they address some of their potential problems, which is something they're edging closer to doing here--even if Joyce's determined naivete is still very much in evidence. A sweet honeymoon phase is good for a relationship, and a good everyday dynamic is too, but how partners handle trouble is vital.

“NICE: A Dumbing of Age Pornographique” (No dialogue except for maybe at the end, the whole thing is just Dorothy and Joyce forming the sexual ouroboros, at the end perhaps an observing Joe sheds one single tear and says the title for emphasis)

J&D: "When I get that feeling, I need--" Sarah: "I HAVE A BAT"

Next strip: Joyce learns too late that Dina's trauma manifests itself as sleep-HOMPK!-ing

I meant for yesterday's aspect. But I also noticed it when they were trying to remove the Amazi-Girl costume, as if anyone would be able to get into the room

Empress of Robots

At this point Joyce & Dorothy have just devolved into the "Myth of Consent" meme where J&D both say "I consent (enthusiastically)" and Sarah is hovering in the background over their shoulders yelling "I FUCKING DON'T"
