I thought she was the one for her! But the kid is not Ruth’s son. Howard’s actually her younger brother. She probably would be something like a mother figure for him due to their unfortunate home life, though. :/

It’s been Jennifer since she started asking people to call her Jennifer (post timeskip). Willis asked (or maybe wondered aloud) in the comment section whether he should change it to Billie again during this flashback chapter.
I think it’s intentional, and it shows that the break between Billie and Jennifer happened because Billie was heartbroken over Ruth and had to distance herself from those feelings.
Unless it’s dramatically convenient for them to be coming down the hall. Last we saw, Jennifer and Ruth and Becky and Dina were all still in the Hell House. Perfectly reasonable for Becky & Dina to have finished.
Or ok, maybe she did, but seeing how bases on the amount of drama already ongoing, the law of diminishing facepalms means the marginal drama she added to the night has way less impact than if her drama was the only one on offer.
Nope, not touching this one. Mostly because I’m fucking stoked about IRL.
Today I had a coding interview with an indie game studio making an Earthbound-style pixel RPG about an ADHD autistic girl and her friends and her struggles growing up! They might hire me as a programmer! ?

All those who haven’t been dumped tonight, raise your hands!
Oh, not so fast, Billie!
…put your hand down, Walky. You’re not kidding anyone.

Ruth: Personwhosdumpedsayswhat.
Billie: What?!
Ruth: Glad that’s settled, I don’t make the rules.

“Aside from all the hall rules that I do make because I’m an awesome RA!”
Some Ed
I thought the awesome RAs were the ones who only enforce the hall rules that mattered. Oh, and also don’t cause more PTSD than they help resolve.

When do we get to the part where Jennifer and Amazigirl decide to investigate Asher’s role in Mike and Amber’s father’s death?
Needfuldoer
Sal gets involved somehow, and the three of them are in the same room at the same time.
Jennifer wins gold in mental gymnastics trying to square reality with her perception.
Suet
Man, Ruth somehow made Billie forget about their relationship… Wow awkward city central. But forget all that,
*in a VERY worried tone* Willis…. What in the Bulmeria happened to Billie’s tag???

Robin pulled it

It’s been Jennifer since she started asking people to call her Jennifer (post timeskip). Willis asked (or maybe wondered aloud) in the comment section whether he should change it to Billie again during this flashback chapter.
thejeff
And then it was sometimes Billie for some of the flashback strips, but not all of them and now it seems to have reverted to Jennifer.
Needfuldoer
I think it’s a gag that got fumbled. Looks like it’s all Jennifer again now, though.
Ana Chronistic
Hence why I’ve been saying BJ (also it’s a serendipitous joke)
Reltzik
It got dumped.

I think it’s intentional, and it shows that the break between Billie and Jennifer happened because Billie was heartbroken over Ruth and had to distance herself from those feelings.

WELP.

Yep.

I wonder how many o thers heard that. Maybe dina (even if it’s not dinosaur related. or becky? )
Needfuldoer
Aren’t Becky and Dina still helping Mary take down the hell house?
thejeff
Unless it’s dramatically convenient for them to be coming down the hall. Last we saw, Jennifer and Ruth and Becky and Dina were all still in the Hell House. Perfectly reasonable for Becky & Dina to have finished.
milu
Also, we may be inflicted a strip of Mary somehow attributing the breakup to her own holy works.
Remember how pleased she was with herself in the strips immediately prior to the flashback.
anon
Well depending on story/comedic timing they could be right at the tail end of it or so
Or becky’s hearing relative to lesbian/woman loving things would set off her radar, even if it’s not necessarily a happy thing
Nono
Wow, panel 4 Dorothy really has the Awkward Amber Smile down.

looked more like a ? face than awkward smiling

Oh, you know there’s going to be more, probably in tomorrow’s comic.

can’t really imagine any alternatives would’ve been better , at least it wasn’t too public/obvious to everyone else

Ruth. NO.
Clif
Well, at least she didn’t add to the drama.
milu
Or ok, maybe she did, but seeing how bases on the amount of drama already ongoing, the law of diminishing facepalms means the marginal drama she added to the night has way less impact than if her drama was the only one on offer.

I hope Billie didn’t here that.
