              And beneath that…

              Pure, molten tsun. Comic ends with Billie murdering Walky, followed by increasingly desperate attempts to frame someone else, and a violent rampage that results in multiple casualties and Billie in an institution for the criminally insane.

              Goodnight.

                  Does anyone else remember the days when it was possible to discuss characterisation without being fluent in Japanese?

                  (Kidding. Actually, I do know what tsundere and yandere mean, having spent about 95% of the past year on TVTropes…)

      December 21, 2011 at 2:02 am | #

      Yes, she’s jealous of Walky liking Dorothy. So jealous, in fact, that she dragged him out of the lake, where he was hanging out with -her-, and threw him down directly in front of the object of his affection while concocting an excuse for him to be trapped in that exact location.

      Next to Dorothy.

      She’s flying on his wing, guys.

            I think there’s a weird phenomenon in the US, and maybe elsewhere, whereby the bullies are perceived to be the ‘popular’ kids just because no-one dares to tell them otherwise. It runs counter to the definition of the word ‘popular’, but the perceived popularity remains. Of course, then you have people learning a different definition of ‘popular’, so then bullies start to become automatically popular. In Australia, some people have absorbed this principle from, I can only assume, US television, and it causes a sort of divided school culture. Well, in the schools I went to. I haven’t been to every school in Australia.

            It’s important for people to speak their minds, but I also want comments to strike a non-creepy tone. We should all be nice and generally not murderous snuff aficionados. These comments should be a pleasant place to say you like and dislike things.

            But I think Aizat was talking about the non-creepy thread he participated in, which I got rid of because Tucker fixed his threading mistake, leaving a redundant post. That was just housecleaning.

        BTW, oddly enough, the local classic rock station played “If Today Was Your Last Day” a few couple of months ago. I say “odd,” because this station doesn’t usually play anything more recent than the early 90’s — and recently, they’ve played Nickelback, Pearl Jam, and even Nirvana (yes, I know Nirvana is early 90’s, but they’re Grunge/Alternative, not “Classic Rock”).

        I just spent a moment realizing how *hard* it would be to “draw wet”. Real people, when wet, exhibit this fact through the following factors:

        1) Droopy hair.
        2) Droopy/wrinkly clothes (if baggy).
        3) Their clothes darken.
        4) They develop a slight shininess.

        The droopy hair is present but very subtle, and while the clothes issues admittedly could have been done more to Walky’s shorts), the effect of water on skin would be darn near impossible to represent recognizably on a webcomic that uses this model of shading. Willis has my sympathy.

    Hmm… I was going to complain about the inconsistency on the grey stripe running through the over-the-shoulder strap of Billie’s bikini top when she’s submerged in the water up to the shoulder straps versus when she isn’t, barring the first such submergence. But then I realised that no-one wants to read about that.

    What happened to the formatting? The comments are all in italics now. Think a tag got zapped somewhere.

    Also, I’m not sure whether Billie is jealous, just tired of Walky’s obnoxious lovestruck grade-schooler act, or actually trying to do him a favor by getting him closer to Dorothy. Maybe all three?

          Seriously though, for somebody who has written HTML in notepad, I sure am sloppy on the comments. You must admit, though, even for being completely accidental it’s a pretty epic troll XD

          I don’t intend to take up such an inordinate amount of David’s time!

            Oh… Only David gets to post pictures directly.

            Well, talk about villainy; for both of us now, I suppose.

      No my fault. Tucker did it.

        It’s always Caboose’s fault, though.

    To me, it seems like Billie has something else on her mind besides Walky. Maybe she’s fed up with the lack of attention from Sal (hehe), and she’s trying to deflect the attention Walky’s giving her to Dorothy, so that she can a) get Sal to notice her (in part from her moving from the water to the beach, and because Walky’s her brother, so he’s bound to attract her attention at some point), and b) make a point that she’s not after Walky (dumping him on the sand in front of the girl he likes, as if giving him up).

    I think, in context of the poster, that actually seems… credible. You know, seeing as she’s acting really pissy right now, but in the poster, the way she’s smiling…

    …All right. I officially ship Billie/Sal now.

    Intellectually, I know a Billie/Walky relationship wouldn’t work out in real life, but that’s not why I like it.

    I like it because it would be HILARIOUS to watch.
