      That was the thing that leaped out at me. He is literally the first person to hear her say “I’m not Amazi-Girl, I’m Amber,” and understand that those are different personas.

      I wouldn’t assume that he understands the DID thing yet. But he at least understands that Amber compartmentalizes AG, something that Ethan and Danny still don’t get.

      As far as I’m concerned, one more piece of evidence that the Walky/Amber ship makes way more sense than their previous relationships.

    I first read that as “He, however, is not,” and the strip was therefore rather confusing.

    Also, “hot” vs. “cute.” Sorry, Walky, you may no longer be a virgin, but your manliness-cred is still lacking. (Yes, that’s gender-essentialist, etc. But so is Walky.)

      Let’s see:

      Built for dexterity, not power? Check.

      Lean? Check.

      Large, intense eyes? Check?

      Kissable lips? Subjective, but plausible.

      All that’s missing are the rosy cheeks. And maybe in daylight those might be there, too.

    Amber, you fucked up a good cover. However, she is right that Asher looks hotter than Walky. Asher looks like an action movie protagonist, and Walky looks like a comedic sidekick that has attention span problems.

    Asher is meant to be Asian? He looks more Italian to me. I must admit I often find it hard to discern the intended ethnicities in DoA.

    • Marsh Maryrose

      Walky thinks of Asher as Asian. Walky is from Evansville, which is not a very diverse community. (For that matter, Indiana is not a very diverse state.)

      It wouldn’t surprise me if people from Walky’s neighborhood assume anyone who isn’t white, black, or latinx must be Asian.

      (It’s been pointed out that the Middle East is technically in Asia, to which I can only say, take it up with the U.S. Census Bureau. You could also take it up with the late Lou Harrison, who pointed out that Europe is technically just Northwest Asia.)

        On the other hand, the countries of the Middle East were included in the “Asiatic barred zone” in the Immigration Act of 1917. So whether or not they are Asian depends on who is doing the classifying, and when. (Which, come to think of it, is true for pretty much all racial/ethnic classifying.)

        I would suggest that there is an enormous difference between “technically in Asia” and ‘likely to be described as “Asian” in common parlance’, even by the most culturally-insulated American. Would Walky have made his decision based upon Asher’s detailed family history and an atlas, or superficial looks (the latter more likely to yield Italian ‘white’ or possibly ‘latino’ than stereotypic ‘Asian’)?

    Maybe this has already been discussed in the last few days, but I don’t really get what Walky is trying to accomplish here at all. Won’t alerting Asher to Walky’s and Sal’s presence make trouble MORE likely, not less?
    I imagine that Sal would rather not have these ghosts from her past dug up at all.

    Anyway, I hope Asher has a similar amount of personal growth behind him as Sal has, but then there wouldn’t be drama, so I’m not too hopeful.

      I think Walky was hoping to ‘scope out’ Asher without letting Asher find out Sal was on campus but, well, he probably didn’t plan this out very well >.>

      Asher could be an interesting parallel to where Sal’s at right now, especially considering that Sal just had a major moment of growth recently. That’d be neat!

      Mostly he just wanted to scope things out, see if he might be a potential hassle to Sal later. He didn’t intend to alert him to his presence. That just happened because Walky did not come into this with a real plan.

    Amber once mentioned “Have you seen Mike’s abs?!” to someone (Ethan?), showing an attraction to him which was at odds with his personality (because Mike).

    Has Amber yet to see Walky shirtless, with his sculpten caramel out there?

    When I first read this, I thought Amber said, “He, however, is NOT.” As in not cute. Which made a lot of sense to me, because Asher looks kinda scruffy, and the cigarette makes it not be in a good way. Cigarettes automatically make people less attractive to me and can give an overall unhealthy vibe. But apparently Amber thinks he is hot. Huh.
