    Is there a chance of peace here?

    1. SkepticJ

      Perhaps I am overly optimistic, but I think so. In the flashback, Raidah appeared to be the one who was engaging with Sarah the most. She has her head on straight, and she seems a heck of a lot nicer than her friends (see: the incident at the mall with Dina).

      1. Resne

        Plus I think Sarah is willing to let this pass.

    2. Jackson

      I wouldn’t get too hopeful, but I’d put decent odds on a ceasefire.

    3. shadowsneakz

      There’s a chance of SOMETHING.

      *cough*SarahxRaidah*cough*

  2. David Herbert

    Well, at least now she knows it’s sincere… unless she thinks Sarah’s a good actress.

    1. Yotomoe

      I imagine Raidah doesn’t think much of Sarah.

  3. Wonder Wig

    One single sprinkle sugar cookie please.

    1. GrrArg42

      No, it’s a sausage with… a burned pizza with… a hamburger patty and some… what IS that?

      1. Yotomoe

        Mystery meat?

        1. Aizat

          Yeah, it’s a mystery if it is even meat.

        2. Gargamel

          With those brightly colored pieces …
          Retired Circus animals?

        3. davidbreslin101

          Lincolnshire herb sausage with added chilli flakes? (Raidah must have a tough stomach.)

        4. desolation0

          Reminds me of Mr. Wilson’s BBQ in the live action Dennis the Menace movie.

  4. Aizat

    Huh? Never thought of that.

    1. todd

      Me neither

      I guess Willis thinks more like a lawyer than any of us

      1. AckAckAck

        Maybe because he need to protect his IPs too…

        1. AckAckAck

          Aaaaand my avatar change again….

        2. Yarrr

          So what’s m-?

          Oh.

        3. Azumango

          Awkward…

  5. bunivasal

    It does speak to Sarah’s better nature that her apology is sincere and personal, not simply an obligation to avoid legal consequence. Also, Raidah, she punched you in front of like five witnesses, couldn’t you just go to the police?

    1. brasca1

      Yes, but if she did that then she’d be someone who snitched to the authorities and that seems to be her sole reason for disliking Sarah. Given her somewhat joking attitude I think Raidah might’ve spoken to Dana shortly after getting hit and might’ve been set straight about what happened.

      1. TrueVCU

        And the unofficial theme of DoA so far is “stop snitchin'”

        1. Aizat

          If you rat, you’ll go splat,

        2. TrueVCU

          If you tattle I’ll make your bones rattle

        3. Aizat

          If you snitch, I’ll kill you, bongo.

        4. Wizard

          Spread the news, wear cement shoes.

        5. TrueVCU

          If you tell I’ll send you to hell

        6. GrrArg42

          If you say any words, you’ll be an extra in “Birds”

        7. r_r

          An ye inform, for ye a wretched bloody form.

        8. TrueVCU

          If you talk you’ll be outlined in chalk

        9. Aizat

          If you blab, you’ll be slab.

        10. Aizat

          If you sing, the pain I will bring.

        11. Yotomoe

          If you squeal, it’s pain you will feel.

        12. Aizat

          If you betray, your head will be on a tray.

        13. GrrArg42

          If you reiterate, I’ll obliterate

        14. AstroRocket

          If you converse, you’ll wind up in a hearse.

        15. Malisteen

          If you soliloquize, then I shall brutalize

        16. Malisteen

          If you yammer, you’ll get the hammer.

        17. Aizat

          If you say, I will slay.

        18. Wack'd

          If you conversate I will exterminate.

        19. CompostMan

          If not kept low key, I will attempt to kill thee.

        20. davidbreslin101

          Speak not, or be shot.

        21. Roborat

          If you talk, no more walk.

        22. Andrusi

          If you speak, you won’t last a week.

        23. Andrusi

          If you testify, it’d be best to die.

        24. begbert2

          If you report it, you’ll be aborted.

        25. GoldStarz

          If you scream, I’ll rip you from seam to seam.

        26. Audiophillie

          If you blurt it out, it’s you I will clout.

        27. Skyboatpilot

          If you aren’t quiet, we’ll go on a riot

        28. Petre Pan

          If you’re a screamer, you lose your femur.

        29. Petre Pan

          Oh man I love this avatar so much

    2. lord of dance

      or it would if said apology wasn’t entirely due to joyce giving her the wut for

    3. Leorale

      If you narc, you’ll be my mark.

  6. Raine

    Apology cubed man. Raidah seems pretty cool about all this.

    1. Xalticus

      She’s probably high as a kite.

      1. desolation0

        reminded me of William Shatner singing Rocket Man

        you can’t unhear that

  7. Bekah

    Glad to see Sarah still has her priorities in order.

  8. Yotomoe

    I want an appology, actually make it a double…with a side of humble pie.

    1. Aizat

      And cake. Don’t forget the cake.

      1. Yotomoe

        Not a lot of fast food resturaunts do cake.

        1. Aizat

          Well, a Mega Mac works too.

        2. GrrArg42

          Besides, I’ve heard that cake can be less than truthful.

        3. Aizat

          If it’s served by an AI,yes.

  9. Aizat

    I think an apology cake is in order.

    1. Yotomoe

      Sorry if it’s all mushed up. I flipped it.

      1. Aizat

        Is it chocolate cake?

        1. AckAckAck

          Walky?

        2. Aizat

          What?

        3. AckAckAck

          Walky the chocolate cake.

          Get it? 😉

        4. Wack'd

          He’s a chocolate-vanilla blend.

        5. AckAckAck

          That’s why Dorothy can’t get enough of him.

        6. Aizat

          I thought he was caramel.

        7. AckAckAck

          I think that one goes to….. Joe?

        8. Aizat

          *raises eyebrow* Fascinating.

  10. Godly

    Raidah’s gone from an almost Malaya-level bongo to Sarah’s cool friend. I approve.

    1. Yotomoe

      I think she’s just gone from Malaya-level bongo to Roz level bongo. pardon my language.

      1. Godly

        Yeah. Or she’s done the Drift-transform (pun-intended)-Moody character who everybody loves to hate into amusing character who is still a tiny bit hated, but at least now he’s nice to have around.

    2. DudeMyDadOwnsADealership

      Or from reactionary to subtle. Either way, it’s a step up. As for the twosome getting on with their lives, I’m not sure they’re there yet….

  11. AckAckAck

    First they will talk heart to heart to take care of the problem. Then it escalate into a heated argument followed by a shouting match. They start pulling each other hair and calling names. It climaxed on rough make out session and angry sex.

    What?

    1. George

      So Billie was right then?

      1. begbert2

        Even a stopped clock is right when it talks about hatesex.

  12. Kernanator

    *eyebrow raise*

    That’s… different.

    1. Aizat

      *raise eyebrow*

      Fascinating.

      1. Giant Speck

        *strokes imaginary beard*

        Indeed.

        1. Aizat

          *twirling mustache*

          Indubitably.

        2. Yotomoe

          *sips tea*
          Quite.

        3. GrrArg42

          *runs in circles*
          Huh..

        4. Aizat

          *turns around dramatically*
          OFF COURSE!

        5. GrrArg42

          ACK!
          *drops china set in Macy’s*
          Don’t SCARE me like that.

        6. Roborat

          *Slowly removed sunglasses*

          Wonders where the hell Miami went.

          *hears loud scream*

        7. Originalslugboy

          *slurps last of tea through straw*

          HAY THIS TEA IS GOOD

        8. Aizat

          Of course. It’s Tea ‘n’ Tea.

        9. Wack'd

          But is it dynamite?

        10. Audiophillie

          It’s tha bomb.

        11. Jackson

          *wears a monocle*

          I say!

        12. Rex Hondo

          *strokes real beard*

          Hmmmm…

  13. Ridureyu

    Honestly, they need to sit down and talk.

    Under the agreement that both will go out of the way not to get too emotional. Air grievances, and let the other explain. And then, even if they don’t agree on anything or get along by the end of it, stop open hostilities. No Raidah-sniping, no Sarah-punching.

    1. GrrArg42

      Sounds like Joe will, again, be disappointed.

      1. Aizat

        But not us or the fanficers.

        1. Yotomoe

          We will continue to live on.

      2. Azukar

        1. Azukar

          And my reply vanished? Why did that happen?

        2. AckAckAck

          We can reply without saying anything? let me try!

        3. AckAckAck

        4. AckAckAck

          Success!

        5. N0083rP00F

          So you have just succeeded at nothing?

        6. AckAckAck

          Absolutely!

          Always overachieve at everything, including nothing!

    2. Gordon Blvd

      @Ridureyu – are you KIDDING ME!?!?!?!
      what OBVIOUSLY needs to happen is Sarah and Raidah should have a passionate lovefest to get rid of all the hostile aggression 😉

    3. DudeMyDadOwnsADealership

      I can picture Sarah wanting to try that in for the sake of the moral high ground, but something tells me Raidah would simply play along enough to find and opening in order to get Sarah’s goat.

  14. Maro

    Im liking radiah more and more.

    At least this one made it so Sarah seemed a little more serious in the apology, last one just seemed cruel.

    But I really want more Radiah.

  15. CC

    I like that Sarah’s apologizing for the fact the punch happened, but doesn’t say she feels bad about it. Because frankly she doesn’t and I wouldn’t either.

  16. Dr.Z

    Assault? I think her case would be a tad difficult, given that I see no evidence she filed a police report.

    Then again, perhaps Radiah not filing an assault charge speaks that she is not quite as focused on ruining Sarah’s life as she had been with her repeated past verbal assaults.

    1. begbert2

      Perhaps the harassment was more Pavlovian – see Sarah, harass Sarah. When away from Sarah and eyeing the police station she was approaching, without the stimulus she perhaps decided that premeditated cruelty wasn’t quite justified.

      Plus, she had two pounds of weed in her purse. Truly, charity and goodwill towards others kept her from entering that police station.

    2. Soon to be Lawyer

      Assault is the improper term as the act was Battery, but today most criminal statutes comingle the two. However, what Radiah was threatening would be a civil suit for battery so that term should be applied and yes, she has a slam dunk case. However, as a civil case it would have no bearing on Sarah’s admittence into law school or the bar. For that matter, it would have little bearing even if it was a criminal matter as its only a misdameanor. After all, plenty of people are admitted to school and the bar with a record of DUIs or DWIs that bear a lot stiffer penalty than Assault/Battery.

      1. Dr.Z

        @Soon to be Lawyer:
        “However, what Radiah was threatening would be a civil suit for battery so that term should be applied and yes, she has a slam dunk case.”

        Assuming Joyce & Billy did not act as witnesses, would Radiah have enough evidence to win?

    3. davidbreslin101

      “I was so scared…. she knows where I live, and I heard she once laid into some guy at a party with a baseball bat.”

  17. Bill

    Cute.
    I’m glad she apologized and the other didn’t file a complaint.
    They are truly above themselves. 😉

  18. NoLast

    BATTERY

  19. Steve

    Assault is verbal, she brought out the hurt. Throw in some battery.

    1. Gijora

      I think they threw some batteries into the food.

  20. Heavensrun

    Kinda aside the point, but what the hell is Raidah -eating- there?

    1. Leorale

      Nobody knows!

    2. Gijora

      Who the hell knows? It’s college food!

      1. Kernanator

        Funny, most college food I know of looks better than that.

  21. BD

    So someone whose beef is Sarah getting whatshername’s parents involved… threatens to get her parent involved.

    I’ve never been so furious at a webcomic character before.

    …something’s up. Sarah shouldn’t trust her.

    1. Gargamel

      Sarahs a misanthrope, I doubt she’ll trust her…
