              Overused word.
              She was angry with Amazi-Girl.

              Ruth would be a better team up. Ruth knows about Blaine and has hockey gear.

        All the pain, suffering, and injustice both in Amber’s life and the world in general would have been worth it. However I think it would be better if he got hit 40 times. Interest and all that

          It would be worth it if his balls got trapped underneath a one ton weight for, oh, say, an hour. Completely popped. Yeah, that would make it worth it. IF he survives that (I’ve heard some people die from the sheer pain), then he will be a shell of his former self

          It isn’t like all abusers trace their lineage to some ur-abuser. Nor do they all have some sad story.
          The worst bully in my high school was the worst bully in my middle school. Seen from the outside you’d think he was definitely from an abusive family.
          Nothing doing. His parents got divorced and he acted out for over a decade, even after high school. Nothing else wrong with his family.
          It isn’t like literally half of all marriages in the US end in divorce. Nope, apparently he was just an extreme ass waiting to happen.

            It would be interesting if Blaine had a bad childhood though. It’d show some parallels between him and his daughter.

              Or, Blaine had a ridiculously idyllic childhood, which left him totally unprepared for real life and a wife and daughter who were less than perfect, and he couldn’t deal with it, and like a frustrated two-year-old who can’t understand why the mean people aren’t doing what he wants, he hits.

              But probably not.

                I mean, there’s definitely a connection here. Beyond Mike’s boot in Blaine’s groin, which has to have happened at least once in a world where Mike has been friends with Amber since childhood.

            Thing is, pretty much all humanity is just a thin line of civility from being abusive assholes. It’s why GIFT as a theory works, because pushing the right buttons or removing enough of the veneer of community that holds up our civil lives cracks through that civility.

              A widely held belief that flies in the face of overwhelming evidence. When the shit flies humans instinctively help each other in the vast majority of cases. It is when things are generally comfortable and easy that we turn into stomp monsters who do anything to “win” at the game of life.

        Blaine is going to say there was some misunderstanding. Since Danny thinks Amber running away is about him, he will see this as a similar situation.

            Hey now, don’t get carried away – sparkly vampires, while completely non-awesome, are also card-carrying Mary Sues who, while they would never ever do anything bad or otherwise interrupt their angsting and pure perfect stalkerish love, are also like totally perfectly super and could completely dismantle you in a fight.

        Of course she had a chance. It could have been part of the relatively calm explanation which included “I think it’s very sweet that you’re faithful to Amazigirl, but what you haven’t noticed is that I’M Amazigirl, you sweet, faithful idiot.” Unfortunately Amber is exactly as bad at explaining things as Danny is at recognizing them, so that didn’t happen.

      She never had a chance. She was running from Blaine, got to the lobby and saw both Blaine and Danny’s family. So she ducked there for cover.
      He Danned (never noticed how much that looks like ‘damned’) up the aftermath by blowing up at her.
      He was angry because he was going to have to explain to his parents why he broke up with another girl.
      So she never had a chance to explain. She was actually in the afterglow of his sincere compliments of her at dinner.
      Not like at 18 you go through prospective relationships like you do fashion choices or toothpaste.

          Past tense of tear into.
          He never gave her a chance to explain or ask for an explaination.
          He just started whining (because he’s Dan) about how he’s going to have to explain to his parents that he broke up with another girl, how she really used him (and is therefore a terrible person), and said they shouldn’t talk anymore.
          Then left.

          Sure, it qualifies. He ignored some realities of life, but it qualifies.

    See, everyone thinks this is going to end horribly, but you have to remember who we’re dealing with. Danny Dans up everything. Blaine sorely underestimates the forces that he’s dealing with. Sure, he can probably manipulate Danny into… doing whatever it is he wants Danny to do… But do you honestly think Danny won’t fuck it up? Whatever he’s plotting is going to crumble into pieces the moment he includes Danny into it, whatever it is.

      He’s trying to get in or to get Danny to lead Amber somewhere.
      He’ll tell Danny not to tell Amber because Amber is angry from a misunderstanding and he needs to see Amber somewhere private to apologize. Danny will be asked to leave before she finally gets to the destination.
      The Danning will be actually doing this, trapping Amber with Blaine. Or Blaine will ambush them before then.

    Hmm… I would think that most people would refer to what Amber was wearing as yellow and brown (the main colours of her shirt and pants respectively); there’s not much blue on her shirt at all.

    Unless, of course, Danny wasn’t that far behind and knows that Amber is now wearing yellow and blue exclusively…

        Actually it isn’t. I’ve thought of this for Paranatural too.
        It’s been suggested that would be good for tv, but a network would ruin it. Even a cable network. The story itself is well structured and suitable.
        But Amazon and Netflix are going into original content and aren’t staying within the same constraints as broadcast shows. Also, the lack of traditional entertainment executives who want to put every plot and character into the same tired, overused tropes work in favor of a traditional story.

        Which is another reason Danny is so clueless. Both Amber and Amazi-Girl tend to dress up in the same colors, have the same hair color, the same general build….

      The lines in her plaid shirt were a blue-green, really more blue than green. So maybe Danny would describe it as blue because he isn’t good at describing stuff. Unless maybe he did see Amazi-Girl from the back and think Amber had just changed her clothes? And maybe when he sees her front he’ll realize Amber is Amazi-Girl? Although knowing Danny, he’d probably Dan it up and think it was Sal again.

        Interestingly enough, a lot of guys don’t really differentiate colors. I remember a lipstick commercial saying they had ten shades of pink, three shades of brown, four shades of blue, and two shades of purple, and my dad said that they all looked red to him. I’ve also encountered a couple where the wife was going on about shades of green and brown, and her husband had this pained/puzzled look on his face.

          It’s true, it has a lot to do with vocabulary and training.
          If you don’t have the words for the different shades, you can differentiate when you see them side by side, but in your memory they will both be the same all encompassing descriptor.
          It’s been tested out on people with different languages that don’t have the same color palette.

          The upshot is that guys who aren’t artists don’t deal with all those unique shades and their names. Also most guys aren’t going to care about whatever needs those shades of green and brown.

          If I recall the results of xkcd’s color-naming experiment correctly, it turns out that there’s no significant difference between the number of shades that men and women distinguish between; the main difference is that men tend to call them things like “purply-pink” and “blue-green” where women tend to call them “fuchsia” and “teal”.

          Also, naming too many colors at one time drives people completely bonkers.

            It isn’t a question of distinguishing – everybody sees colors just fine.
            Because of the lack of specific vocabulary, remembering a specific tone is iffier.

    What’s that, Amber? You’ve already had a shit day? Nope, sorry, it’s only gonna get about 10,000 times worse. I’m kinda hoping Ethan or Amazi-Girl just happen to spot him and wreck his shit. Or that a meteor will face on his face. What a cock.

    My reaction to DoA these past two weeks have been little more than “I am not okay with this,” in varying degrees of intensity. Today’s strip tops it and I just know eventually Mr. Willis will make today’s strip feel less like the gut-punch it is.

    I do not know how to feel about that…

      This is not a gut punch. It is just checking out the gut tension.

      The gut punch will be Blain escaping to the room where Amber’s mom is banging Joe’s dad, Amber and Ruth in close pursuit.

      And then David will manage to make the situation much worse.

        Danny is certainly not glib and has no superficial charm. He lacks cunning and manipulativeness.

    I sense a cathartic moment coming on. Something about Danny and Blaine meeting Amazi-Girl, and her letting out all her anger on Blaine, and Danny finally realizing that Amazi-Girl was Amber the whole time; or maybe he could finally have a badass moment and protect Amber from her father, but that would be asking too much.

    It sucks being a fan of Danny. :\

        Not new new, I meant any of the established characters who could help in a crisis. Ethan knows Blaine and might be of use (and redeem himself some). Ruth knows about Blaine. Dina knows Blaine is bad and could do something, even if it’s call the PD (although they’re notable by their absence). Doesn’t Mike know Blaine from knowing Ethan and Amber? Mike on Blaine–THAT would be sweet.

    The sad thing is that I think I actually hate Danny even more than Blaine.

    Make no mistake, I dislike Blain for what should be obvious reasons. But he’s also clearly intended to be a villainous character. He has thus far been shown to have no redeeming qualities whatsoever, and is thus intended to be hated. And as a side effect of that, we get to occasionally see him get his comeuppance, as with Amber clocking him. As such my dislike for him is not really any stronger than any other random detestable jackass.

    But Danny? Danny is a good person, and though his life will not be without it’s downs, he is unlikely to ever be so villainous as to truly have a bad fate befall him. Which is unfortunate, because the sheer level of obliviousness he possesses absolutely infuriates me. That he couldn’t see the bad road his relationship with Dorothy was going down or the way he kinda sorta hoped she would abandon her hopes and dreams to stay with him. That he would presume to know what a woman wants better than she does herself (his first meeting with Billy). That he would choose to be with somebody he doesn’t really know, doesn’t know anything about her or even her name and shows signs of potentially being psychologically unstable (Amazi-girl) over somebody else who he’s clearly interested in, and is clearly interested in him back, and is far more ‘real’ (Amber). Nevermind that they’re the same person, he doesn’t know that. And that drives me nuts as well! Even if Amber’s Amazi-Girl outfit is more convincing of a disguise than I give it credit for, even if it might be genuinely difficult to identify the two as the same person, the fact that he would seriously consider that Sal is Amazi-Girl is just… Like, how can he claim to be in a relationship with Amazi-Girl when he can seriously be convinced that her alter-ego is somebody who doesn’t even share the same body type as her!? And now there’s this bit with Blaine, and it’s obvious right away that this is going to go very poorly for everybody, and it just makes me hate Danny so much more than the actual villain himself. He infuriates me so.

    I just wanna add that I’m glad no idiocy seems to have spilled over to the “next available” comments section when I noticed it was still active on this strip.
