About as close to admiting they either of them are wrong as either with get. Accept what you got Billie and leave. At least there is no blood on the floor.
aggg..no edit button try that again.

Only if you have a Gravatar and change it. When I’m tired of an avatar, I just change my fake, gibberish email address, and a new avatar is randomly assigned. That avatar is forever tied to all the comments made with that email address. This comment will always have a furious Galasso avatar, unless Willis decides to replace the existing avatars.
One of my friends in college once didn’t turn a blind eye to his own alcohol infractions. That was my fault… I pointed out that he was the RA, so it was his job to write up underage drinkers… and he was underage and drinking. Had drunk enough, in fact, that he thought that writing himself up sounded like a good plan. Turned it in to the RD and everything… whose response was, “… I’m going to put this in my drawer where it’ll be safe, and you won’t give me any trouble at all for the rest of the semester, right?”
Ruth, sweetie, pointing out that Billie couldn’t have gotten that evidence without breaking into your room when she hasn’t yet realized that you couldn’t have gotten your evidence without breaking into *her* room is maybe not the best idea.
But then she’s not exactly a *competent* criminal.

Oh Ruth. How I love you so.

Oh Marceline. XD
Yotomoe
why is she so mean?
Kaixa
She’s not mean she’s just a thousand hears old and lost track of her moral code.
Aizat
Can’t you see these guys are in pain?
Yotomoe
no she can’t. She’s invested in that really cute video game.
Plasma Mongoose
That’s how she rolls.
Aizat
Like a boss.
Osaru Sensei

Ruth, you magnificent bastard you…
Yotomoe
I think this is the closest to a friendship we’re gonna get for now.
SkepticJ
Aww, Ruth does have a heart after all!
Ancestral Hamster
Eve if it is three sizes too small.

Last panel is perfect. Ruth is awesome.
Sensedog
Nothing can help start a new friendship quite like mutual blackmail!
Also, I’m especially liking Billie’s image in the upper fourth panel. I’m not exactly sure why.
Kernanator
Oh Ruth. I can’t tell whether to punch you or kiss you.
Yotomoe
kiss her with your fist.
Kernanator
An excellent suggestion!
Plasma Mongoose
POW! Right in the kisser.
Joseph Harner

I think this is basically where Billy is right now.
Mkvenner

narmenduke
That’s an…intriguing final line from Ruth there.
Gundi
D’awwww. Kind of. Neither of them fail at being a being a human being!

Billie, just accept the current detente and walk away.

Poor Ruth, Both eyes blind, and not a friend in the world.
Tenn
…and then they fell in love. 🙂

If you didn’t include that smile, your Sarah AV would have made your comment go in a more amusing direction 😉
coobee
And your Joe av takes it to… other places.

Sour Sarah avatar contradicts my post. RRRAAAAAHRRR!
Avatar change! Bam!
Tenn
I can has non-frowny avatar?
Tenn
Apparently not, but furious Galasso is awesome.
Darth Cariss
Fun fact, comments about avatars will be confusing and useless to archive readers! Some day someone will read this and agree.

Crow T. Robot
I miss you nameless truck driver… please return soon, so that you may lay your swarthy truck driver vengeance against Ruth…
Rowen Morland
Maybe just introducing her to Danny would be enough to doom her.
They didn’t meet yet, right?
artemi71
Hopefully he’ll hit Billie this time. Might be what it takes to make her likable again.
WhiteEyedCat
And so we see the beginning of Ruth’s long and complicated reward system to turn Billy into a nicer person. This may take a while.
Aizat
I think the better question is “Who was phone?” *rimshot*
Jamie North
Quite so!
Kitschensyngk
She CAN be nice.

That’s impressive. Kinda scary that he kept his job, but impressive all the same.
casual observer
They should just make out and be done with it!
Crumplepunch
It’s a good thing they have casual observers around to point out the obvious plan.

RAs are allowed to do inspections with a master key if they suspect tomfoolery. At least we were when I was one, back in the ’90s.
David
Yeah, as RA, Ruth has lawful access if she needs it.

I close my eyes when drinking so I can truthfully say I was not a witness to events. Ok not really but i think that may work in this comic

Man, I don’t much like Ruth, but her last line is brilliant.
