Forget the guy, Ethan might just cut out the middleman in this case.
Also, do Dina’s pajama pants form a pair of dino jaws, because that is amazing. She’s a dinosaur with a dinosaur on her head, a dinosaur for legs, and sleeping on a dinosaur.
Also kind of another sexual innuendo article of clothing that Dina bought without realizing the implications, given where the dinosaur’s throat ends up being on her body…
Sleep positions are totally individual. A guy I used to date seemed none the worse for wear despite often falling asleep in positions that hurt me just to look at.
Ethan and [guy name here] come wandering into the room mid-makeout, oblivious to the world around them. They flop over on the back of the giant dino, and the rebound catapults Dina across the room.
Cue series of Slipshines (not unlike Welcome to the Fuck Zone) of people banging on the plush, earning the name Fuckface, and Malaya finds out causing extreme reptile envy.
In retrospective, Becky could have gotten all three: she could have chosen tuiton and a garantee. In that way she could have used the money to pay Leslie for a bit of rental compensation, and because of helping keep Robin away from doing homophobic stuff Leslie would support Becky.
Becky made one hell of an entrance this sequence, yeah. Dressed snazzy and defied physics to surprise-deliver a gigantic dinosaur plushie to her girlfriend, dang!
… Hmm, when I write it out like that it really sounds like a Robin kinda move.
It is not clear to me how removing Dina’s loft would free up floor space. If she wants to put the plushie ON her loft, maybe – though it’s a lot bigger than the bed frame. Such a sleeping arrangement would moreover be highly fraught, likely to lead to falls from a great height.
Isn’t the bed and the space beneath it all one unit? If you take it out, it should free up a lot of space. Don’t know if the dorms would allow that though.
I decided she means what she said – remove the entire bed/desk unit, and put the plushie in that location. This leaves her with no study desk, but I don’t doubt she can find a workaround.
Where the loft unit goes is undefined. Perhaps it can be disassembled and the pieces stored in her closet.
… Great. Now I want a giant plush dinosaur for a bed… But don’t think it’s be wide enough for the husband, toddler and preschooler to join me on… Plush pteranodon bed maybe..?
Oh my god, Dina’s pants. And damn, that DOES look comfortable. I’m glad Becky is so distracted with all the baggage attached to the plush otherwise I’m pretty sure she would beat Ethan to the punch.
I believe it came up and was clarified at some point. I could be wrong, Becky has been a regular character for like four years now, she’s been through a lot.

I’m just imagining the look on Becky’s face when she noticed.
MaddMaxx
I want her entire wardrobe
oz
Now Dina and Gigantic Raptor both have dinosaurs eating their heads!!
DarkoNeko
That looks comfy
someone
For a short while maybe, but it’s going to be murder on her back if she actually sleeps on it.
DarkoNeko
It’s ok, Dina is like a cat, she doesn’t really have a spine

DSL
When you’re young, sleep position can be anything you want. A few years on, though, and the options narrow. Painfully so.
LookingIn
she will just turn over and sleep on its head, that’ll probably be more comfortable and it’d be like she’s hugging it all night
butts
that thing’s surprisingly ergonomic, huh
ShinyNeen
It’s highly adjustable
DarkoNeko
the most important thing for a butt
Streben
Dina’s priorities amuse me.
Ana Chronistic
hopefully not while Dina is using it

Bor-ing!~

Rosicrucian
Man have we seriously never seen Dina below the waist in sleepwear before?
How could we have been denied those awesome jammies for so long?
Clif
I don’t believe so and I don’t know, respectively. But it is obviously an injustice of epic proportions.
Clif
I just realized that the odds are high she is wearing mind-bendingly cute dinosaur themed underwear that we will never see outside of a slipshine.
Tan
Suddenly I have very strong feelings about what the next Slipshine should be.
shadowcell
at least seven legit sorries
Roborat
Oh noes, Becky has caught Canadian disease.
ian livs
Dina is supremely relatable here, you guys.
ShinyNeen
Heck yeah! I’d start power tripping too if I got to lie on top of Dinoplushie!
ValdVin
Willis has provided us with two (or three) punchlines here. Great stuff.
Suitora
You mean Slipshines?
Schpoonman

electriccombines
The adorabloodthirsty pair of a lifetime, Dina and Dino!
DarkoNeko
tuition, a place to live, and garantee not to betray the values, pick two eh
Clif
Hey, the third one was never a realistic option anyway.
abysswatcher1993

BBCC
Ohhhhh, Ethan. He is such a dork.
And yeah, might be wise. Just make sure you get all the stuff from the bed/any drawers/etc. though, Dina.
Stephen Bierce
*plays the theme from the Dino-Riders cartoon on the hacked Muzak*
maarvarq
The plushie seems happy about it.
timemonkey
Honestly, I’d bang a dude on a giant raptor plushie.
All-Purpose Guru
I have a feeling Becky is gonna bang Dina on one.
Tacos
Those pants Dina has are awesome.
Keulen
Dina has all the best dinosaur-themed clothing.
DailyBrad
Dina’s somehow even slower on the uptake than I am, but for the best of reasons.
Golden Yak
Name the raptor.
Name the raptor name the raptor name the raptor.
Reltzik
Forget Ethan. DINA’S going to want to bang on it.
…. um, assuming she has a sex drive. I’m kinda not sure about that.
Bagge
And, not to put a too fine point in, BECKY is very aware of the idea in panel 4
ValdVin
This one is pretty indicative.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2017/comic/book-7/03-the-thing-i-was-before/sinproofed/
DarkoNeko
to be fair, this one was like hugging a HUGE plushie to sleep and yes, all the yes to this even without any sex drive~
Skemono
I think Dina declaring “YOU WILL KISS ME” is also pretty indicative.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2015/comic/book-5/04-walking-with-dina/misreading/
Minibit
Lots of aces and aspects people enjoy kissing.
Annika
I mean, you can like snuggling, kissing, and the way someone looks and still be asexual.
fire_daws
Shoulda have said this before; Becks is totally rockin’ that suit 😀
Bagge
She is, she truly is.
I don’t think it’s ONLY the dinosaur that makes Dina search for words in the first strip.
ShinyNeen
Becky made one hell of an entrance this sequence, yeah. Dressed snazzy and defied physics to surprise-deliver a gigantic dinosaur plushie to her girlfriend, dang!
… Hmm, when I write it out like that it really sounds like a Robin kinda move.
Bagge
Robin and Becky share several important traits.
But there are key differences. Case in point: Becky apologizes to Amber in the first panel.
fire_daws
And their opinion on closets. Rob’s is firmly shut in hers whilst Becky nuked hers from orbit.
Bathymetheus

Clif
What they don’t know, they can’t realistically disallow.
BarerMender
There’s a desk under there, and room to use it.

Bed or Dinosaur. Dina knows what sparks with joy!
JessWitt
Slipshine on the dinosaur?
Slipshine-o-raptor?
DarkoNeko
imagine having to clean a giant plushie… bigger than any washing machine you’d want to use
Miri
… Great. Now I want a giant plush dinosaur for a bed… But don’t think it’s be wide enough for the husband, toddler and preschooler to join me on… Plush pteranodon bed maybe..?

Oh my god, Dina’s pants. And damn, that DOES look comfortable. I’m glad Becky is so distracted with all the baggage attached to the plush otherwise I’m pretty sure she would beat Ethan to the punch.
Fuzzy
Wait, did Becky know Ethan is gay? I forget if that was ever established on-screen.
Schpoonman
I believe it came up and was clarified at some point. I could be wrong, Becky has been a regular character for like four years now, she’s been through a lot.
Nono
Not explicitly, but they’ve never really interacted aside from Becky firing Ethan as Joyce’s boyfriend.
All-Purpose Guru
Dina looks so damn cute on that dinosaur.
I predict lots of smooches. and maybe bangin’.
Lacuna
Does Plush Raptor get a name or are we just gonna call them whatever?
I propose Bangasaurus, because they’re the dino you see when you wanna bang.
