            Why thank you very much. I got a little DoA easter egg on todays update of my comic too!
            DoA being the webcomic that finally made me break down and go…”Ok, I’m starting a webcomic.” I found it appropriate.

        Maybe the inspirational teacher that persuaded her to go to college was abducted by aliens in the Walkyverse? So in this ‘verse she never had that marriage mishap and realised she was gay the old-fashioned way; experimentation in freshman year 😉

        That brings me back to when I use to Roleplay(RP) on Yahoo Chat, where folks like myself would try to make every post at least a paragraph in length, which when RPing with folks of lesser skill levels(aka the one liners) would get increasingly difficult, that is unless you were fighting them, then it was easy as: more words = stronger attack, less words = easier to find holes in their defense.

        Those were the days back when my computer couldn’t run any games, only chat programs, so I made due.

        Well, if she came out and said “i want you to make hot smoking lesbian love to my politician sister in order to create a scandal that’ll tear her world asunder because of our sibling rivalry, pretty please” I doubt much would come of it.

        Then again, she could end up making a constituent out of leslie yet!

      And the fun part is that Leslie seems to be in favor judging by that last statement. Then the sex tape that Roz planned will wind up on the internet and while the numbers of one group will jump, the other will drop like a rock leaving her with decreased votes from the older groups, but MUCH higher numbers from the younger voters (18-24/26)

      Maybe Roz is a DFC.

    Urrrrrrgh. God no. Unless it turns out Robin already has someone on the side, or Leslie is just trying to dig up dirt on Robin, or, you know, anything more interesting and different than a rehashed Robin-is-actually-gay plot. I’m sick o these two, no matter the universe. Let’s move on already.

    Haha! Leslie is a sharp one! Although if I were her, I’d probably try to avoid getting caught up in another one of Roz’s political scandal schemes

        Cultures and genitals are an uneasy mix.

    I honestly don’t see how Leslie got “you’re trying to hook me up” from what Roz said. Sure she’s right, but it was a huge leap given what she actually had to work with.

    RE Joe was asked permission.

    Wait.

    Ethan is gay in this universe?

    (That makes me want to… dance.)

    This was two years ago (give or take)
    When are we gonna see some Leslie action? Like, is this an abandoned side-story??

      Yeah, that’s probably one of the thing that disappointed me the most about re-reading this. That this storyline wasn’t picked back up.

Who should be the default doodle for Book 14?
