As long as you’re wearing other clothes as well.

Do pajamas count as clothes? What about long-johns?

Yeah, ’cause going to school commando is just kind of weird.

JOYCE YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO
In another universe still: “Yes I can, I’m your squad commander”
“Oh yeah, how did that happen again?”
“You and everyone else were even less qualified for it.”
“GOD DAMMIT”
Exactly. Plus, even if something is your plan – it’s totally different to see it executed so well, without actually (or barely) contributing anything. She could be grumpy because it’s going too well.
Also she could be jealous (or grumpy with a tinge of jealousy) because of various reasons (e.g. how simple Joyce could enter this friendly banter match up to her being still physically attracted to Jacob), disregarding that something like was her main goal.
Aaand, she could just be like “guys, toggle it down, will ya?” – it can be pretty awkward to watch two people flirt.
Zee
I’m not sure it’s so much that she’s jealous. Remember she realized the moral implications of her plan and called it off, so the fact that Joyce is still trying to “steal” Jacob away is probably bugging her
. . . .Well let’s see how this trainwreck of a conversation goes. It’s unlikely that the two lovebirds who still clearly love one another will get back together so quickly sooo. . .prepare for the awkward conversation.
Probably not today, but I expect we’re heading there eventually. I don’t think Dorothy & Walky are done yet.
Unusually Angry Hippie
Honestly, given their personalities, I don’t think this is a relationship that’s actually meant to last. Yes, they’re cute together, but their actual lives are almost entirely incompatible and Walky isn’t the sort of put in the effort on his end even if he knew how.
Walky, in voiceover: “Yup, that’s me. I’ll bet you’re wondering how I got myself into this little situation— face-to-face with the girl who broke up with me just the other night.”
“In truth it’s not that interesting a story – we go to the same relatively small college and share a lot of the same social circle. All in all it’s a pretty common situation…”
Deanatay
“… so I really don’t understand why this particular encounter leaves me feeling like someone is scooping out my intestines with a rusty spoon.”
So I feel like pretty much every character has been drawn extra-adorably lately, but I especially want to give a shout out to Dorothy.
Like, I do just really like Dorothy in general but I feel like nearly every drawing of her lately has come out great!
Characters are great, art is great, hope that’s not too weird to randomly blurt out.
F’reals. Not having time to get a haircut or even properly brush her hair is a good look for her! I know that looks sarcastic in the no-intonation internet comment text, but I’m not even foolin’!
I mean, she’s a part of their friend group (arguably more intertwined to the Joyce block than Walky is) and they all routinely get lunch together. It wasn’t planned necessarily, just part of their normal schedule. Probably to the point where someone would have to be actively uninvited and it would be weird and awkward.
I mean, Dorothy has been skipping group lunch, but she’s also been skipping meals and the whole breakup’s because she thinks socializing is a frivolity she can’t afford right now. Telling her not to come while she’s inclined to would be like telling Billie while she’s trying to go sober, ‘won’t work, drink yourself into a stupor.’
It had to have at least been partially planned.
Jacob is not a regular to their lunch scene and Joyce, at least, knew Dorothy was coming while Sarah either didn’t know, didn’t care, or forgot, considering she was suggesting they get a move on.
Of course, since Walky didn’t show up to class, there’s always the possibility that they planned on him not being there or that they made the plans while in class.
But I agree that if Joyce had expected to have lunch with Walky, since she did seem to know Dorothy was coming, that would be kinda shitty of her.
Chris Phoenix
Note that Joyce tried to warn him away from running into Dorothy. Joyce might not have realized until panel 2 how much he wanted to avoid her.
Dorothy tried to beg off because of Walky, but Joyce was adamant about reclaiming her time.
cbwroses
Huh. I completely missed that strip. How’d I do that?
And yes, that does confirm Joyce being shitty. Dorothy even tries to get her to consider Walky’s feelings, and Joyce just ignores it, which imo is disrespectful to both Dorothy and Walky.
No. There is no way that more sarcasm is ever possible.
cbwroses
Did you two just wax sarcastically about how it’s not possible for someone to be more sarcastic than Walky?
Or am I so used to Walky dialogue that I’ve begun seeing sarcasm in every sentence?

Sarah seems jealous. Wasn’t this her plan? I understand that she wants Jacob and all but…what did she expect? ):

I find it vastly preferable to a lot of the other stuff right now. 🙂 especially since walky is doing the fake-childish humour again. I like that 🙂
Reltzik
I give 50/50 odds that it will be more sex. “We’re on pause” didn’t put a stop to the sex, so why should “we broke up”?

If this was like a planned thing, and no one told Walky that Dorothy would be there, that’s kinda shitty.

Walky, you gotta think, Joyce wouldn’t be calling you back because she wanted to spend more time with you.

She enjoys his company on occasion. Granted, rare occasion, but still…

Probably not, but calling him back to try to tell him how he should act and what to do is something she would definitely do.

Panel 4 reminds me so much of my ex. I’m suddenly acutely aware that my first boyfriend was Walky but more sarcastic

Yes, it was definitely one of those two.
