Submitted for your approval, Dorothy Keener. She thought she was just going to a normal morning service. Little did she know that when she walked through the chapel doors, she would enter–the Twilight Zone.
Unless the musical note is a new character you are mistaken. Sierra isn’t even a new appearance for this continuity. Though this is her first line as far as I can tell.
Has Sierra made an appearance in another continuity? I don’t recall seeing her in the previous series. Besides, I’m curious as to how she counterbalances Dotty.

So Dorothy’s roomie has a name nearly identical to a beverage Joyce does not prefer. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!
Joebo
I have no idea, I just assumed she was a member of the ultra sexy squad from It’s Walky!.
Does anyone else notice or concerned, (with the exception of Billy) that everyone so far seems to be way too coherent at 8 am… on a Sunday, on campus that was rated the number 15 party school in the US by the Princeton review, within the first month of school. although there has only been five people may be just a fluke or I need too adjust my suspension disbelief. But the comic still great and i love the look on Dorothy’s face in panel three, its the perfect “I regret this decision immediately” look
1) Joyce, who has no reason NOT to be bright eyed and bushy tailed.
2) Dorothy, who knew well in advance that she would have to be up early on Sunday, and is known to only be at that school while she waits for her chance to transfer to an Ivy League school.
3) Sarah, who hates fun in all its forms (with the notable exception of the fun derived from being contrary)
4) Sierra, who is Dorothy’s roommate, and likely also knew, well in advance, that Dorothy would need to be up early.
5) Billie, who wanted to stay in bed.
I can understand Joyce and Dorothy being coherent, and ready but Sierra and Sarah being coherent is a bit odd i mean if Sarah hates fun being up at 7 am or 8 am actually since she was studying and dressed meaning she got up earlier i am not sure who Sierra is and i know nothing about her As i have only been reading Shortpacked and Dumbing of Age I assume she is from It’s Walky or Roomies, or Joyce and Walky or she was either shown or mentioned briefly earlier in the comic and I don’t remember her. But her being up and coherent i find personally odd even if she knew Dorothy had to get up there is no real reason for her to care to get dressed and answer the door unless she is going to church with them. From my experience from living in the dorms, it is rare to see someone up on a Sunday at least at this time less they are ending an all Night-er or going to church or coming back from a party.

im not so sure that sarah ever went to sleep in the first place. surliness is a 24 hour gig
creatorx2
I am fairly certain Sarah was awake for the sole purpose of overhearing Joyce and Billie discuss sticking things in holes.
Such is life as a punchline. Tiresome, and never any credit. And long line-ups to get bread each day. Or something. Punchlines have it tough.
I was wondering why is so bad they match? until I remembered that only in lolita fashion that is considered a good thing XD
Sierra is really nice considering is so early on sunday XD
It’s usually a no-no to do things such as wear the same dress to a party. In this case, though, I believe it’s more a case of “I’m dressed just like her? People will think we think the same way.” Or a similar vein.
Zuche
A similar vanity, at least.
Kryss LaBryn
Just wait until they get to church. EVERYO– nope, not gonna say it or Willis won’t do it. But, lol.
Romanticide
To be honest, on my graduation another girl and I turned out to have bought the same dress… and the only thing that worried me was that she looked better in it 🙁
Michelle J Caboose
Actually, it’s more a “I worked for hours on this (look/outfit), and this bongo just waltzes in here and steals my thunder!
Usually followed by both of you looking daggers at each other the rest of the night, because the bongo did do it on purpose just to show you up. But it looks better on you than it does that jealous skank.
I mean, uhm… I’ve never been in that situation. Really.

Its just so awesome. Im tearing up a bit at how awesome it is
OhHayMike
I have to agree on the awesomeness at hand.
Henry
It’s sort of overwhelming, actually.
No two characters can make sweater-vests look so sexy.

“No two characters can make sweater-vests look so sexy.”
If Sweater vests contain sweater puppies, then you don’t have to do much more.
Jerrery
There are no bad looking Dumbing of Age characters, no matter what they’re wearing.
Wandering Meme
I dunno. Ryan looked pretty bad last I saw him.
billygoatofdoom
That is only because we haven’t seen Walky in Pajama Jeans yet.
TheGrumpyBear
And now I’m visualizing Walky in pajama jeans and a sweater vest.
Nezumi
What about Buckets of Blood guy?
Tan
I have one word for you, and that word is Sal.
Jetstream
You’re right. It’s not awesome.
It’s SUPER awesome 😀
DudeMyDadOwnsADealership
Would it help if they changed their names to Hattie and Mattie?
How about Pepper and Ginger?
Sugar and Spice wouldn’t work, unless they got Amber or whoever to done a matching outfit and change her name to Everything Nice.
DudeMyDadOwnsADealership
done = don. Typo. Sorry
Plasma Mongoose
How embarrassing, matching vests.
James Rye
So cute! Just likea new couple~ <3
Heavensrun
Yeeeeesss…All is proceeding exactly as I have forseen.
Michelle J Caboose
Dressing like a couple… Can PSL be far away?
I think not.
Kaolla
Incase having to go to church wasn’t enough to put a “just shoot me now” look On Dorothy’s face.
JediAutobot
That, that is kind of frightening.

Dun dun dun!!! Deedle-deedle dun!

My screen locked onto that one comment, causing it to cascade all the way down the screen. It was mildly unnerving.
meanderling
The only way it would be scarier is if it was Amber and Dorothy!
Also, I can’t find the piercing, augh.
Cattleprod
Sierra has piercings in every typical piercing spot that is obscured by hair or clothes.
Piper
It’s the piercing scream going through Dorothy’s head when she noticed the matching sweater vests.
Rowen Morland
Whistle?
Anyone else notice that Joyce fills that vest out way better than Dorothy?
Plasma Mongoose
YES I have noticed that Joyce is bigger than Dotty.
Katie
WHAT THE DEUCE IS THAT PICTURE?!?!?!?! /where is it from?
Plasma Mongoose
It was an edit from a few months ago, I cannot recall exactly when.
RaijinK
As with “Wig”, looks like some strip titles got mixed up. Going by the URL, this one is “Change”.
Vivvav
Ok, am I the only one who noticed that we were just introduced to a new character?
Plasma Mongoose
There was? Well I be darned! 😛
Joebo
Unless the musical note is a new character you are mistaken. Sierra isn’t even a new appearance for this continuity. Though this is her first line as far as I can tell.
Kernanator
I say that the musical note deserves its own tag, it’s a very important character!

Sierra has actually appeared in one other comic, she just hasn’t said anything. And we didn’t know she was Dorothy’s roomie.
Wandering Meme
Oooooh…wait a minute…
AHA!!!!!!!! Who…are…YOU?!?
At least she adds some more diversity. I hope she’s polynesian. Or darling that, just plain black.
Like hair dresser diva black. Not female samuel l jackson, we got one of those.
Stephen Bierce
Does Sierra not deserve to be tagged?
David
Um, she IS tagged.
Plasma Mongoose
…and therefore IT! *RUNS*

Dorothy actually looks pretty good in a sweater vest.

You count 5 people.
1) Joyce, who has no reason NOT to be bright eyed and bushy tailed.
2) Dorothy, who knew well in advance that she would have to be up early on Sunday, and is known to only be at that school while she waits for her chance to transfer to an Ivy League school.
3) Sarah, who hates fun in all its forms (with the notable exception of the fun derived from being contrary)
4) Sierra, who is Dorothy’s roommate, and likely also knew, well in advance, that Dorothy would need to be up early.
5) Billie, who wanted to stay in bed.

It is kinda weird that Sierra is up and about and not at least looking more groggy, but the others are acting just about like I’d expect. (shrug)
Roninwolf
Bekah, you have the best damn avatar ever
Kaylee
Huh. This is Dorothy’s roommate? I was expecting a much bigger reveal, with all the buildup.
Kaylee
Of course, if she turns into an awesome character, I have no complaints!
Den
Wait what? when did that?-
…Oh, right, I guess Dorothy still feels responsible huh?
T.C.R.M
I love Joyce.

Joyce wears nothing but sweatervests. She had to know this would happen. I think she secretly wanted it to happen.
Animal
“Nothing but a sweatervest” could be pretty damn hot.
OhHayMike
What’s going on with that girl’s neck?
Kernanator
She is secretly half-giraffe.
Aizat
Sweater vests are awesome. That is all.
