Playful guilt is definitely sexy. Like, “Oh man, sure is a shame that neither of us is going down on the other. What a really unfortunate situation. If only something could possibly be done about this dreadful situation we find ourselves in.”
And then one of you mentions boba and so you go get boba first/instead.
Not necessarily all at once– like, I’m kind of onboard for Dorothy and AG AND Walky and Amber, which might be… tricky. But you know. Maybe there’s a montage.

Okay I just had a terrible thought and I apologize
“No, see, it’s NOT polyamory! Amazi-Girl is dating Danny, and Amber is dating Walky. Two completely separate relationships.
(And we should all go on a double date together.)”
Walky and Amber could have a 3-way with AG, but I’m not so sure AG would be down with that, or Walky for that matter. But the logistics would be easier to manage with only 2 bodies and 3 personalities. Also AG and Danny broke up before the time skip so that wouldn’t work as a 4-way either.
Yumi
Not sure if you meant to reply to Effie, but it’s posted as a reply to me, so I’ll just say– I wasn’t bringing Danny into this at all.

Managing the flux on this polycule is definitely taking up all the pushpins and red yard.
I can’t tell is that the “aroused as fuck” face?
Or is it the “I have complex emotions around being seen as a primarily sexual being and want to base my self worth on things that aren’t necessarily sex” although, a little less explicit.
I think it’s the “oh my god my issues about sex are making Joyce feel undesired even though I desire her SO BADLY but my issues are about not wanting to HURT her but THIS is hurting her too??” kinda trapped feeling.
How do you desire badly? I had a high school teacher who liked to say, “You can only ‘feel badly’ if your paralyzed or dead.” Does that apply to “desire badly?”
Kirdei
Because badly can mean “to a great or serious degree or severely”.
Saying “I desire her badly.” Means “I desire her to a great or serious degree or severely.”
Yumi
Sorry your teacher went the “obnoxious quips” route instead of teaching the class about parts of speech.
BarerMender
She was making the point that the required modifier was an adjective, not an adverb. You don’t feel badly, you feel bad.
Yumi
Yeah, I got that, but if you came away not being sure when “badly” is being used “correctly” (as above), then I don’t know that the appropriate lesson was taught.

Good hint, very subtle. 🙂
Sirksome
Danny’s a bad wingman.

#neverforget
Thag Simmons
Is he worse than Joe though?
Rose by Any other Name
Danny is so bad at being Joe’s wingman that he’s wingmanning Dorothy by mistake. And he’s doing that badly too.
Steamweed
Is this the return of Danny Dannying up things?
Asky
Yes, but it’s okay because Sal finds it to be an endearing character trait
Megan
dottys gonna be pissed
Doopyboop
I’m happy for Joyce, you can tell she loves teasing Joe.
clif
Instilling guilt is always sexy.
Though this may be more in the nature of a hint.

*insert “why not both?” meme here

Kazuma Shouri
gdi now I want boba
Nullset
A teasing hint is known as a taunt.
Reltzik
Or maybe a dare.
Clemency
you gotta hanky that panky my guy
Nono
And that’s why Joe and Carla can never get along.
AeromechanicalAce
Because she’s incapable of talking about anyone but herself?
Dean
Because Joe is about wings and Carla is about wheels.
Nullset
Ultra Car very much has wings.
Qube
hey, that’s not entirely true!
she’s incapable of *caring* about anyone else, it’s a big difference
better time
she can be both. these things are not mutual exclusive.
in fact these to “qualitys” coalesce quite often.
clif
She seems to be doing a pretty good job of faking it then.
clif
Directed at Qube, with reference to Charlie.
Opus the Poet
Carla seems to care about Charlie a lot. Enough to provide her an endless supply of buttered toast…
Reltzik
At the very least, Carla cares about whether Charlie cares about Carla.
Needfuldoer
Carla cares, but she pretends she doesn’t care. Because she cares so much.
Fernanda
That’s so ironic, considering the original universe.
Jeremiah
Only Joyce could make that line work so well.
Puppeteer Nessus
He now has NO CHOICE but to hanky that panky
Aura
Pretty much exactly my reaction, how the heck did she make that work?
Dante
She turned it all into art and I’m hella impressed ngl
But not as much as Joe
Opus the Poet
I am also highly impressed at this turn of the conversation to Joyce finagling for Hanky and/or Panky.
clif
Only Joyce would need to.

God I need so many people to fuck in this comic

And yet I don’t think Sally wants to share.

This comment is amazing with your icon being Daisy

your avatar works so well for this statement. ~<3
Rose by Any other Name
Yes. Fully agree, Yumi.
Byron Orheus
Well, there is a Patron just for that.
Rose by Any other Name
I did not know that patreon existed. Huh.
Does this mean that Willis has no further plans to post on Slipshine?
Taffy
The Sal/Danny one was posted while the Patreon’s been around.
Steamweed
I feel like “If it ain’t gonna be ME, then I NEED it to be SOMEONE” is an appropriate motto for several of our people.
NGPZ
themz an “i wanna fuck” face if ive ever seen one XD

I don’t know who’s been edged more at this point: Joe, Joyce, or us

yes

Matthew Davis
I’m not even sure who he could go to for advice. I mean, I know characters I might suggest, but I don’t know that Joe would think of them.
AGV/Ruby
Joe’s basically thinking “OMG this woman is going to be the end of me (and I’m into it?? (Should I be into it????))”
