how does amber see without her glasses?
Contacts, I’d assume.
Here’s what Walkyverse Amber has to say about it .
That Amber’s a bit older than this one.
So, when are the Dumbiverse Amber and the Walkiverse Amber going to do an “Amazi-Girl of Two Worlds”?
anyone else find it odd that after like, weeks of danny bashing, he makes a very decisive and good decsion, (which even Willis acknowledged) and most everyone is discussing Amber’s vision problems?
…good work Danny. you got me in your corner at least.
You’re not the only one. He’s not my favorite, but I still like him. I would put him in my top 10, right after Amber, Dina, Bille, Ruth, and Mike.
That’s not ten, mate
Or “Amazi-Women” to use the Marvel version
Wow, good recall.
Also, the Walkyverse takes place, for the most part, during actual calendar years, since which contact lens technology may have advanced a bit to where we are today.
I find it amusing that the sci-fi universe has a more realistic portrayal of a real life super hero than the realistic universe.
I beg to differ. I see nothing realistic in Dexter and Monkey Master.
That page is so great without context.
Righteous fury.
Boundless confidence!
Unbridled joy?
Usually you become blind in righteous fury mode. Though it could be a superpower.
Deliciously curvy?
Poorly.
She’s not blind. Her vision’s probably just slightly impaired.
I’m legally blind so not even glasses can help me but I can more or less get around with just a bit of help from my white cane, I bet Amber’s sight is a damn sight better than mine.
Bit of a disclamer before my question/comment:
What I’m about to say might be considered as offensive to you and possibly to others that visit this site as well. Let me say that I don’t mean to be offensive, but I’m just extremely curious. And I can’t really word this question right in my mind without it sounding offensive eithe, so I ask for your forgiveness ahead of time.
Considering that you can read this comic, how do you adjust your screen so that it’s visible (or easier to read)?
Ctrl + works for me…
Are you trying to make the print larger so it’s easier to read? With Firefox, if you operate the scroll wheel on your mouse while holding down the ‘CTRL’ key that will change the size of the font.
If the font isn’t sharp (fuzzy) that sounds like a monitor problem and might need to be taken to the Geek Squad.
Thanks man- no need for cheater glasses- us old folks have a hard time with that print- Why did Firefox never tell me this! You are now my AmaziBill! Thx!
Or perhaps somewhere that fixes computers well at a reasonable price.
Only 10% of legally blind people have no vision. Someone who is legally blind basically wouldn’t be able to get corrective lenses good enough see more than 20ft away more or less.
Amber is more likely to be near sighted, in which means something close to punch is perfectly visible.
Exactly, one the legally blind scale where 0 is 100% blind and 10 is bare minimum reduction of sight needed to be classed as legally blind in Australia, I would rate an 8, which is why I can do things like shopping mostly without assistance but not be behind the wheel of a car.
Also , glasses haven’t been effective in improving my sight for several years now.
@Broken Products: I have a 27 inch screen which is less than 2 feet away from my face, I have set the default screens so it is gold on black to reduce the visual distortion, ticked the “Ignore font size specified for webpages” box and depending on the website the zoom is between 125% and 300%, that is how I can read and view images, even then I can miss details.
If you hold down the Ctrl key, you can then tap + to zoom in on web pages and – to zoom out. Note that this doesn’t always work for some web-based applications (like Java) but for casual browsing it works like a charm.
She’s probably just slightly near- or far-sighted, like she can’t read well without glasses or something. You don’t need to see sharp detail to beat the hell outta Blaine.
Actually, when you’re close to Blaine you don’t want to see his face in extreme detail, or you risk throwing up.
I’m thinking that, even close up, his features are kind of blurry at the moment.
It cometh up yesterday as well, and Willis sayeth she hath astigmatism, as does he.
As someone with an astigmatism, I can do martial arts without my glasses, and my eyes are pret bad. Can still see shaps and distances well enough, and learning spacial awareness can work without full sight, or even blinded.
Same, though I might be blinking a little more than an average person based on how bright it is.
same here, astigmatism, i cant read or see much in the line of detail without my glasses, but spacial awareness is top notch. I think those of us with visual imparements tend to have a higher overall spacial awareness than those without. Just on the basis of necessity if nothing else. Need to know where things are, cause might not be able to SEE where it is. Helps navigating in near darkness too!
also, apparently when posting from my phone, I am granted Danny as an avatar. go figure.
I had both astigmatism and nearsightedness until I got it corrected. It’s the same thing that they do for cataract surgery, except instead of replacing the cornea, they implant an extra lens on top of it instead.
And yeah, I can speak for the spatial awareness thing too. I used to think that I didn’t have peripheral vision at all (because my vision was too blurry), but after I had that surgery, I found that my peripheral vision gives me almost 180 degrees of sight.
It might just be the way my head is shaped but, My periphiral vision, while like the rest of my vision not clear… I can actually see a wider degree of viewable space than most people I’ve noticed. I cant see ANY kind of detail, but I can see color, and shapes off to my side just a big behind me… it’s awfully distracting at times lol.
There are contact lenses that correct astigmatism. They are quite comfy.
I can concur on this point. When I first got contacts my opthamologist did not inform me that I had an astigmatism and every so often while I was wearing my contacts, if I stared too long at one area without focusing or just let my eyes drift slightly then my contacts would become unfocused and I would go “temporarily blind” as I used to put and I’d have to blink furiously to get my contacts back into focus. My contacts were like this for about 2 or 3 years before my opthamologist told me that I had an astigmatism and gave me weighted (toric) lenses.
I can’t stand my toric lenses. Went back to normal glasses, even though I fight in Dagorhir Medieval Combat games.
For some they are, for others of us not so much.
To me they feel like braces for my eyes. Like NeoVachel, I went back to regular contacts. My astigmatism is so minor, though, that it doesn’t really matter.
No glasses doesn’t necessarily mean blind. Her eyesight could easily still be good enough to beat people up.
And only beaten to it by about a dozen people!
With her eyes. Duh.
Keep in mind that even legally blind people can see “something.” We don’t know Amber’s prescription and most people who need glasses can see just fine enough unless they have to read something or navigate a playground full of children.
One of the best fighters I know is short-sighted to the point that he can’t clearly see anything more than about six feet away without his glasses, which he doesn’t wear when fighting. His take on it is, “When something comes into focus, either block it or hit it.”
I’m thinking that the acrobatics would be a bigger issue than the fighting, although who knows, maybe she didn’t know that she was jumping onto a truck until she landed.
Has anyone considered that she is wearing a prescription mask?
Just fine, thank you.
I assume there’s some place where people like her and The Riddler can have prescription lenses fitted to their masks.
The same way that Strong Bad types with boxing gloves on.
There’s an explanation way later on, but I’ll avoid linking something that far ahead.
The answer is harmless, comic is far enough that a click or two could be harmful though.
You tell ‘im.
Alright, so Danny ain’t a total failure.
Yeah, Danny gets at least a grudging “8” for that. I’d up it to 9 if he kicked him in the crotch.
Hmm, I’m giving a full 9 here actually… For his unquestioning support and loyalty to Amber/Amazi-Girl… Amber-Girl?, his quick thinking and all
This 100%.
Right there with you!
Yeah this is a pleasant surprise. Nice work Danny Boy!
Great, now I have that song going through my head. Thanks.
I’ve got Zoidberg’s rendition in my head. =/
Awesome Muppets rendition:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCbuRA_D3KU
He’d have pissed on him, but there was no time.
I wouldn’t piss on him even if he was on fire.
Well no, in that case you’d get some fuel.
How much gasoline would you need to drink to have flammable urine?
Just go get that little dude from Farscape.
OBVIOUSLY. The fire would have lit your piss on fire, and the stream would have led all the way back and set your gogo’s ablaze. Like when you pour gasoline onto an open flame and it goes back up to the can.
Is the a reference, or should you maybe consider altering your diet?
can’t get off the floor, oh my side hurts
DANG IT TO HIGH HEVEAN BLAINE IS STILL ALIVE
Thank god. Otherwise Amber would be a murderer and there’s no coming back from that.
That depends ENTIRELY on how many Martian resurrection chambers exist in this universe!
That would be zero. Monkey Master and the Head Alien are comic characters in this universe.
So you’ll find it at Universal Studies. Jeez, do I have to think of all the answers here people?
I just hope that Blaine doesn’t have Joker Immunity.
Yeah…I wanted the dude’s back to be broken and he be humbled.
“Hobbled”. The word you were trying to say there was “hobbled”.
No…I was suggesting that Blaine should be given the Iron Sheik treatment. You know, put him in the camel clutch, break his back and make humble.
…I was being too subtle there, sorry. What I mean is the fucker needs his goddamn legs broken.
“When you see that everything you’ve built is in ashes… then you have my permission to die, Mr. Blaine.”
No…his punishment must be more severe.
I now imagine the Amazi-Girl voice as Bane.
Good job.
Oh my God.
Danny is doing something nice, heartwarming, and smart.
WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO!
he didn’t Danny it up this time… Something’s not right. We haven’t yelled DAMN YOU WILLIS is far too long
That’ll do pig…
That’ll do.
aww Charlottes web… you dannyed my eyes up just now…
Wrong pig movie.
It’s possible he’s hit maximum Danny capacity for today. He can’t make it worse until tomorrow.
Maybe that’s what he’s Danning up, the predictability of him Danning everything up. He Danned things up on a meta level.
First he becomes self-aware, now he’s gone meta?
We’re doomed.
Danny’s well-meaning, I think, once he gets a clue about what’s going on. But usually it takes him so long to figure things out that he Dans stuff up all the time. I wonder how long this non-Danning will last.
He will Dan things up so long as he doesn’t know the full story. Other characters have the capacity to understand events without being told, Danny either doesn’t trust himself to make that judgement or isn’t smart enough.
Once he knows, it’s easy for him to pick the correct course of action.
My money’s on the former. Danny’s confidence in his own judgment is ground down to a nub, and he’s completely unaware of it.
Yeah, he was pretty damned sure initially that Sal wasn’t Amazi-Girl, but Billie sort of bullied him into accepting her “fact”.
He’s so spineless, he’s an invertebrate.
Well, he needs to be on the right side of Amazigirl. He’ll need all the firepower he can get his hands on to recover the 3DS.
inb4 everyone hates Danny for, i dunno, whatever, reasons aren’t really important
“You call that spitting?”
Gosh Danny. I’ve seen people comfort a girl WAY better than that.
Just wait. There’s a proper time and a proper place for everything, and this ain’t it.
Thanks Oak.
Oak?
Gary Oak.
Proffessor Oak.
He says that when you try to equip the bike.
OK, apparently that’s a Pokemon reference, and as an almost 60-year-old man I have never touched a Pokemon.
Although I have ridden my bike indoors.
I am sooo tempted to make a joke about Bill touching Pokemon.
Eventually you realize that when you meet Bill he was dressed in a full Kabutops suit. And later, you realize why.
In the Pokemon games, whenever you try to ride a bike indoors, Professor Oak says your comment almost word-for-word.
“What kind of DICKBAG let’s RAIN hit them like that?”
“Danny, you took .10937213721438214 seconds TOO LONG to realize what was up, YOU DANNED IT UP DANNY-STYLE”
That waterlogged jackass.
To be fair that spit sound effect was sub par. It should have been “PTUI”
In fairness, look at the distance between Danny and Blaine, and look at the trajectory of that loogie.
It’s like he wasn’t even trying.
What kind of failure spits on someone when he could kick them in the junk anyway?
Kicking in the junk is only effective if the kickee is conscious to know it.
Kick them hard enough, and they’ll know about it when they wake up.
“Dammit Danny, the cops can trace that spit back to you!” using state-of-the-art CSI techniques that only exist on television!
(I’m quoting two actual replies I saw closer to the bottom. Do people even know how DNA works??)
Little gnomes exist inside you. If you let them sit out, they will escape into the world, your secrets safe. But if they’re in an environment that makes them scared to come out of their homes, like a dry desk, they will hide. If you put them under a microscope, they will tell the scientist who you are because you abandoned them.
But since they use gnome language, the scientist must use a database full of people’s names in the language. Once the computer finds a lingual match it tells the scientist what the gnomes are saying.
Yay for Danny! Not a bad guy! Kinda stupid!
That’s what Sal said about him, he’s a nice guy, just not too bright.
And he does something. He’s less Lois Lane, and more Alfred Pennyworth.
Really? I think he’s more Lois Lane in this comic than he’s ever been before.
Exactly. Don’t forget, Lois once shot down cars with a machine gun from a train like it was nothing.
………When?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1-PjY5tcOI
Let’s take a trip back to 1942
Yeah, but against a completely armored vehicle. I’m pretty sure there’s a rule that says the supporting cast is only allowed to be as awesome as the villains are able to shrug of displays of being awesome.
And there was a time in the comics when she killed two hunter-killer robots in the Lexcorp basement, Sarah Connor style.
Everyone gets caught up on pre-Crisis/Donnerverse Lois, but the post-Crisis Lois was badass.
I can’t see Jeremy Irons playing Danny.
Can’t really see Amy Adams playing Danny either, though.
But imagine Michael Caine as him. Better yet, Michael Gough. Actually, now I’m imagining a film adaptation of DoA where all the characters are played by different Alfred actors. Jeremy Irons can be Mike.
As long as he don’t over act like in Dungeons and Dragons. Yatatata
“Let’s get Dan to business—”
*shot*
… wait, wrong Disney movie.
TO PROTECT
MY HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN
“Cause once in his life, a Dan has his pride, and my time is now, I’m coming alive!
I can feel a new horizon, against the blazing sky, gonna be where the eagles soaring higher and higher, gonna be a Dan in motion…..and I forget the rest”
My respect for Danny has increased a hundred fold.
Ditto. And I was not a gratuitous Danny-hater!
Good job Danny. You didn’t dan it up.
Get going kids!
Danny! In my eyes, you are redeemed!
“With your last breathe, I spit on you…hhHHHHK-PHHTU!”
Hyuk-tooie!
Insert Iron Sheik quote here.
And on that note, I’m linking to one of his Twitter posts.
This is why Danny is my favorite character.
(please don’t hurt me)
Hey, he’s my favorite too.
Clearly you guys haven’t realized that Sierra is the one true character.
But Sierra is only .6 on the Dina scale!
Well Dina’s only a .5 on the Sierra scale!
Yes, but
__________________
-Sierra ± √Billie^2 – 4Ruth*Leslie
Dina = ——————————————-
2Joyce
Curses, that ascii math looked a lot better in the textbox.
Not to mention that version of the quadratic formula suggests that Billie = Sierra and Joyce = Ruth.
both of which are broken and worthless when compared to the Mike scale, which can be acquired for a nickel, like your mom
Trying to reconcile the fact that both Dina and Sierra both got a .5 on each others scale therefore annulling the possibility that one is superior to the other just caused a singularity to pop in my brain.Well played gentlemen,well played.
The only way the math can work out is if Dina and Sierra are both zeros. Which I don’t think is what either Yotomoe or the Doctor were trying to imply.
Anyway, Billie is clearly the best.
Zeroes, or infinities.
Or in some weird “modulo Q”-like algebras.
I love Sierra.
Danny leveled up big time!
Image of Scott Pilgrim immediately in my head
Same here. Danny gains the Power of Love!
Guess he didn’t need money or fame.
Or a credit card to ride this train.
think we’ve accounted for strong, sudden and cruel.
But it might just save his life.
Then, as we can all agree that these attributes are, in sum, “the power of love”, the next logical step would be to ask the question of whether or not he can feel it.
They say that all in love is fair, but he don’t care.
But he knows what to do when it gets a hold on him.
Instead of evil exes, he has to deal with evil dads? Sure, sort of works.
How many dads does Amber … oh, you mean *everyone’s*?
Except Dorothy’s, Sierra’s and Dina’s.
Good job, Danny.
Damn, I need to know if Blaine crapped his pants.
I got money on it!
Tomorrow…
The pants will be crapped….tomorrow.
Bet that Blaine’s bottom will be….shit…
Atta boy, Danny.
I request the highest of fives!
Here you go:
Hi Five!
That is honestly not where I thought that would go.
This might be better.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ypHVEiHbHo
Yeah, I had something else in mind, but got distracted by another comment.
And here I was just thinking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lEedyxkbNo
LiaHansen is the king of fives.
Yayyy Danny redeems himself completely!
Wow, that’s a lot of spit.
You sound like a soccer mom with two five year olds before she’s given up on censoring her swearing in front of them.
Where did Danny get that extra-long straw? What’s he drinking with it?
Blaine’s femurs, it’s one of Danny’s more unique talents.
Blaine’s milkshake?
So….Danny..DRANK BLAINE’S MILKSHAKE?
He… *SHHLLLP* DRANK IT AAAALLLL UP?
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
He’s actually sucking up Blaine’s soul in the last panel. He does that to whoever loses a fight when he’s around.
Danny is basically Shang Tsung.
Flawless victory.
Can’t be. Blaine would need to have a soul in the first place.
Of course you lied, thats the point of having a secret identity
Truth-telling and secret identities don’t mixed.
Unless you’re just efficient at killing everyone who finds out.
Or having a means to erase memories.
Or you’re too powerful to defeat, so powerful that even your friends and family are safe
…or are they?
You going to haft to lie sometimes… Well most of the…OK all the time to keep your identity secret, peter parker does all the time!
Like a Forget Me Stick?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLcpPC0shZ8
By Jove, I think he’s got it.
“Now wipe off that whiteface makeup and give me my DS back.”
Well, he’s learning quickly.
Danny, did you drink rain water to do that, cuz otherwise you generate a LOT of spit.
His one talent. It’s not a good one, but goddammit, it’s his.
And look how far away he was, too! And with barely any wind-up. Highly commendable.
He can make it to regionals with that spit.
And then it’s straight on to sectionals. And a week later it’s semis, then semi-regionals, then regional semis, then national lower-zone semis!
No…Danny used Water Gun.
Unfortunately, Blaine is a Dark type, so it only does 1x damage, compared to Amazigirl’s Supereffective Fighting-type moves.
I thought Amazi-Girl was using Rage…which is a normal type.
No, she was using Revenge, a Fighting type move.
She’s seeing red…that’s definitely Rage.
Amazi-Girl’s ability converts all moves to fighting type moves to give STAB.
So…Amazi-Girl’s ability is Fighting Spirit?
You’re ALL wrong. Amber is fighting type, and mega-evolves into amazigirl and gains dragon typing. She used a combination of Close Combat and Outrage. Blaine is dark type, an Danny is fairy type which is how he stopped Amazi-girls STAB outrage without getting hurt. Also explains why Amber was confused afterwards.
Amber is full of BURNING JUSTICE!
It’s just her mind’s eye turns red instead of her body bursting into flames. Easier on costumes that way.
I am breathing the hugest sigh of relief right now.
Suddenly, Danny’s popularity skyrockets, all because of something gross.
I would of kicked him
THERE’S JUST NO PLEASING YOU.
Stop having self-deprecating arguments with yourself, Danny!
Blaine was down to zero hit points, and Danny’s not a killer.
Nah, he was doing pretty good even before that last panel.
That just made it awesome.
You know, it doesn’t seem like Danny is doing the regular spit. It looks like Danny doing Water Gun on Blaine.
Even as a pokemon, Danny knows one of the weakest moves. He probably JUST leveled up from bubble!
Oh hush, a Squirtle learns Water Gun at level 15, Poliwag at 19, Slowpoke at level 33…but that’s the joke for Slowpoke.
i don’t see your point. All of those are really low levels. Except slowpoke, but that’s the joke.
Or splash? Sorry, it has been a long time since I played Pokemon.
Not bad, Danny. I think I’m actually starting to like you.
Danny is acting… competent. He just took charge of that situation and thought things through. This is so weird.
Looks like he’s the sort of person who normally defers to everyone else, but when he realizes that he’s the last resort, then he’ll really step up to the plate.
And if Danny isn’t your last resort, then you failed to resort to enough of him.
VINDICATION!
EXPECTORATION!
He’s especially good at expectorating!
APPROBATION!
Don’t you do it, Danny! Don’t you go makin’ me love you!
Read that as “Don’t you go making love, you!”
It made sense to me.
Now’s not the time, Danny!
No seriously, it would get really awkward when those guys from McDonalds arrived.
I’m pretty sure that after almost being kidnapped or murdered, having sex is the last thing on his mind.
First time I’ve liked Danny. Atta boy!
He hates himself? No wonder.
Unless, you know, the cops use that spit to trace back to Danny.
And that would imply Danny beating up Blaine…or at least Danny is spraying when he talks.
Lotsa rain dude. Washes evidence away and all that.
Danny’s DNA naturally Dans up washing away and lands on the one spot that rain has not, nor will not hit.
Using their local college kid dna database? Plus no Department is gonna process DNA for a simple assault case, DNA takes weeks sometimes months and crime labs have years of backlogs for rapes and homicides so there is no way time and money is getting spent on something low priority like that.
I mean, there’s also, you know, a witness– the victim. Cops tend not to use expensive DNA testing (which is also worthless if they don’t have the suspect’s DNA on file) when someone can just tell them happened.
Which makes me wonder just what sort of cock-and-bull story Blaine is likely to try to make this into. He is, after all, an adult so his statements automatically get a certain amount of credibility, and if the only two other people who know what went on aren’t there to give their side of the story Blaine could spin more lies than a sleazy used car salesman and a crooked politician combined.
Well he can’t admit that a girl beat him up (even if that girl is Amazi-Girl) and everyone could see that there were 2 people plus Blaine there, so he’s going to have to make up some real cock-and-bull story, perhaps with a real bull in it to explain the beating.
A bit like this, except it ends with him beaten up, instead of him beating up the other.
(The newscaster in the bit in the beginning says that the pope used to be a bar bouncer in Argentina.)
Theoretically, he doesn’t even know the masked girl was his daughter. No, if Blaine involves the authorities, I put my money on DANNY being the one he accuses. After all, he has Danny’s name. And he knows his daughter is friends with Danny, making it yet another way to punish her.
Dunno if Blaine is the type to go that route or go personal…but I’m actually kinda worried for Danny right now.
And then the police interview Danny, and after they finish laughing at the idea that he could beat up anybody, they go ask Blaine what really happened.
You imply Blaine would make something up? When he could just tell the truth: “I was just kidnapping this kid when a little girl in a cape came up and kicked my ass”? Why would he lie?
good man, danny. good man.
also i’m REALLY glad blaine wasn’t awake to hear danny blurt out amazi-girl’s identity. i mean it’s not like he was exactly nice to amber before, but i’d hate for him to actually have leverage over her.
If Blaine didn’t figure it out when she was beating the crap out of him then… well any other day I’d say he’s more ignorant than Danny but you get the idea.
When someone’s beating the crap out of you on a dark and stormy night is not exactly the best time for detailed observation and analysis.
Unless you’re Batman.
Danny looks like he’s taking a big ol’ suck from a long straw in that last panel.
Onomatopoeia be damned, we’re going with straw on that one!
..dang it Danny. You did the right thing. WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME LIKE YOU!
Someone needs to do Danny as Scott Pilgrim fanart.
I’ll do it!
….
for a fee…
Would you do it for a nickle?
Mike would.
With his penis.
The penis is implied.
If Yotomoe can draw Danny as Scott Pilgrim fanart with his penis, I will pay him TWO nickels.
My hate for Danny suddenly feels… limp. I’m shocked to say this, but I’m actually kind of proud of him today. Seahawks win the Super Bowl and Danny takes care of Amber when she needs it most. Pleasantly surprising day on all accounts.
All of my pleasant feelings were dashed when I realized I got my least favorite character as my gravitar… Why does Ruth have Cookie Monster eyebrows??
Um, Cookie Monster doesn’t have eyebrows…
She has lines for eyebrows like everyone else.
Whoops, wrong person. Meant to reply to begbert2.
Yes!
Hence, begins- the retribution of Danny
Wait, I know what happened here. The Denver Broncos used up all the suck, so there was none left for Danny.
(Yeah, yeah, I know, buffer. Don’t care.)
The Broncos used up all the suck so bad it went into the past? I purposely avoided the game and stopped watching the Puppy Bowl after the first quarter.
You chose…wisely.
Yeah, well I have been around for every single one of them, they started going downhill after Joe Namath back in the late Paleolithic… er 1960s.
…and Danny’s stock goes up…
to -9998?
If Danny’s stock was that low at the end of the stock exchange day, he would have been put into receivership.
You know what they say: buy low sell high.
or in Danny’s case: buy low sell eventually.
I think that’s Faz’s stock.
On one hand i really like how Danny is progressing but on the other hand I feel like any minute he is going to regress so Willis can smash my hopes.
You’ve raised my hopes and dashed them quite expertly. Bravo sir.
Naa that boy’s gonna be alright. Unless Blaine kills him down the road. (I hope he does. Not from Dannyhate but from an interesting development standpoint.)
… So. Danny’s Crowning Moment of Awesome/Heartwarming right here, agreed?
Agreed. Someone edit TV Tropes.
‘Cause “Crowning Moment of Surprising Adequacy” doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.
It’s not that surprising to those of us who read the comic and thus noticed that Danny only screws up when he’s had information deliberately withheld from him, possibly with a dash of outright lies for flavor. Given actual facts, he always acts on them quite well.
…That may be the best face Danny has ever made.
Danny: Better late than never.
Very proud of you, Danny. Glad to see my faith in you was placed well, and I am glad about Amber coming clean, even if she didn’t really get a say in the how, we got there all the same.
Good going Danny. Gotta give you credit when credit is due.
The ‘fuckwad’ is still alive, it groaned.
Hoping Blaine did not hear Amzi-girl is Amber. Not that he would believe it maybe? But still, the less he knows the better.
“No Danny. Amber’s not my father. What a dumb question”
Danny uses water gun!
But isn’t Danny a Rock-type?
He’s hard-headed enough to be one…
Danny is a Ground/Water type.
Like a Mudkip.
Hrrrnggghhh…. gotta resist…. can’t…
I liek mudkips.
So I heard you liek mudkips :3
First he figures out 2 things that he needed to figure out then he keeps cool and spits on that douche? Man. Danny’s getting cool… in 2 comics out of the series
but then that does seem to be the point of all this.
Ah, Danny, you are actually manning up here and taking care of Amber. Aw. Nice to see Blaine clearly alive and hopefully unconscious.
Thank you for finishing this up – I was dying to know it was going to be ok.
Damn you, Willis for making me a hipster! I believed in Danny before it was cool!
You know, you’re not the only guy who believed in Danny.
I know. We can all be filthy hipsters together.
I never didn’t believe in Danny. Mostly because I still haven’t read whichever comic of Willis’s that everyone already hates him from, and have found his reactions in this series to be generally rational based on his knowledge.
Me too. I never got the OMFGKILLDANNY hateon they had. Yeah, he’s done stupid things, but….so has pretty much every other cast member so…yeah? <<
Eh. Danny started in the hole with me because of Walkyverse Danny, but I was willing to give Dumbiverse Danny a chance to prove himself – and early on he was; I was appreciating that he’s much less of a self-righteous sanctimonious prick than Walkyverse Danny. But lately, reading BBR, I’ve found myself hating Walkyverse Danny more because of Dumbiverse Danny rather than the other way around.
The main thing is that (alone among DoA characters; everyone else has the excuse of little to no contact with one or both of her identities) his continued obliviousness to Amazi-Girl’s identity has been trampling all over my suspension of disbelief for months now, the upshot being that I’ve been unable to find any reaction based on Danny not knowing that Amber and Amazi-Girl were the same person to be even remotely rational.
I’m really glad Willis finally took that out behind the barn and shot it in the head. It was seriously damaging my enjoyment of the comic, to the point that I probably would have rage-quit it ’round about Amber and Danny’s little chat at the bridge if it weren’t for all of the other characters and their plot threads that don’t have any fucking Danny in them. This thread going somewhere where I’m not pissed off just seeing one of the central characters’ stupid mug in the strip is looking promising now.
(I mean, assuming Blaine goes away for a while. But he pisses me off for entirely different reasons. I can enjoy hating Blaine.)
Now you only have to worry about whether everyone else around Amber figures it out or not, now that there’s a pretty good pic of Amazi-Girl making the rounds on social media.
@Dimonite: “Mostly because I still haven’t read whichever comic of Willis’s that everyone already hates him from”
That’s got nothing to do with it. There was never this big “Oh yeah, we sure all hate Danny, yup yup” thing before DoA. It’s just one of many bullshit reasons for hating him or pretending to hate him.
I would say Danny was less likeable in early Roomies, but only because nearly everyone was less likeable in early Roomies (Mary wasn’t; not possible). Joyce was a creepy psycho stalker, Joe was 100% horndog with none of the redeeming features he later aquired (or came pre-equipped with in DoA) and everyone was kind of one-dimensional and secretly Christian by Default.
I have to say, I could not be happier that my prediction about how Danny would handle this was WRONG.
Way to go, Danny. Good on you.
Well I’ll be damned, he made the right choice after all.
Holy shit, is Danny going to stop dannying things?
Nope, he’s not going to stop having his actions misinterpreted by readers who can’t remember that Danny doesn’t know everything we do. Because that’s what “Danning things up” is.
*thumbs up*
How dare he not know everything we know! I expect my webcomic characters to be omniscient!
where has faz been this whole time?
In a cargo plane
In Blaine’s motel room, masturbating to increasingly shameful internet porn.
In Ruth’s closet.
“I liked Danny before he spat on Blaine!”
The more you guys like Danny the better I feel about not liking him :3.
What if my only feeling on Danny remains “He’s boring”?
Thank you for maintaining the equilibrium with your neutral indifference.
Thank you for balancing us out.
Ok, major brownie points for Danny here.
Uh, Danny, not for nothing kid, but you just left a nice big globule of DNA for the police there…
Yeah, because the police have Danny’s DNA on file, and there isn’t torrential rain, and because Blaine can press charges against his hostage.
Pretty sure you can be an accessory to aggravated assault just like you can to murder. Danny DOES know Amazigirl, and he did just kinda flee a crime scene. Also, calling Danny a hostage is kind of shaky ground here. He went with Blaine willingly and was never threatened. Worst you can say is that Blaine aggressively grabbed at him shortly before getting brutally assaulted by a vigilante.
The worst you can say is that Blaine kidnapped somebody, and then somebody else acted completely within the law to use a measured level of force to prevent the crime (which is legally classified as self-defense, even if somebody else does it on your behalf). If Amber stuck around for prosecution, Blaine would be screwed.
Besides, I can’t see him going to the police with this. He’s a suspicious enough dude already, and there was the trouble at campus.
Will he have a choice? He’s barely conscious as it is. I dunno if he’ll be able to recover well enough to drive away before the McDonalds people discover him and call in an ambulance and a cop car. I’d put good odds that he’ll have to deal with the police in some capacity.
Umm, no. Sorry. I love comics and I love batman, but a real life masked vigilante going around fighting criminals is not “acting within the law” under the best of circumstances. And beating a man to near unconsciousness and having to be held back lest you go further and actually murder him is not “the best of circumstances”. On top of that Blaine, Danny and Amber are the only ones who have a clear understanding of how everything went down. Of those three, one of them was a masked vigilante who is probably already wanted by the police and fled the scene of a crime after delivering a savage assault to someone, one of them is the admitted boyfriend of said vigilante who would likely have to lie or refuse to answer questions to protect Amber’s identity. One would hope that a decent bit of police work would show Blaine was up to something sketchy and maybe punish him for it, but I don’t buy that Danny or Amber are gonna make it out of an investigation unscathed either. Initial investigation is gonna treat Blaine as a victim of assault and Amazigirl as the one who perpetrated it. And if it goes as far as a trial, so will the Defense.
Sorry, so will the prosecution.
It was kidnapping the whole way through, no matter how Blaine dressed it up.
And Blaine has a great big name and address in his head about Danny’s identity. They don’t need DNA.
Hmmm, that raindrop. Something was spitting here…
[puts on sunglasses]
but it wasn’t the rain.
YEEEEAAAAHHH!
CSI: Bloomington.
Or…you could say that Danny is…[puts on sunglasses] spitting in the rain.
YEAHHHHHHH!!!!
Oh, man, I have hearts in my eyes. And what’s especially awesome is that Danny doesn’t just do the right thing, he does it instantly, at a point where I’m pretty sure I’d still be stammering and trying to process. Turns out he does have the ability to function under high stress after all; go him.
So basically we have to put him in mortal danger all the time?
Wow. He really was born to be Lois Lane.
Danny’s thought process:
Is she my friend? = Yes -> I should help her.
Do I trust her? = Yes -> She’s probably did that for a good reason.
Querying…
Did Amber’s dad deserve it? = Yes -> I hate that fucker.
His decision making routines are fine, he just needs help interpreting data. Maybe it’s a Comp Sci thing?
Nope, the routines are fine, it’s the processor that’s screwing things up by dropping threads. And being sloooooowwww. (just kidding, I like Danny outside of the Willisverse)
GodDAMMIT Danny – they’ll trace that!
Even when you do something seemingly cheer-worthy it just turns into me shaking my head. >w>
Danny can never catch a break.
Yes they’ll trace his spit. They’ll find it easily in the other masses of water formed by the intense rainfall, and his DNA is readily available in a criminal database.
I’m super happy. xD
Danny’s been one of my faves. Challenge accepted indeed Willis. Nicely done.
Alright Danny, you’ve regained some of my attention
Man, I have so many feels, I don’t know what to do.
Thank you, Danny, for not making me regret having faith in you.
Could someone please pick up that phone?
BECAUSE I CALLED IT. =3
I have never heard/read that before. I’m going to use it in the future
Ahem.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZstUJQ2QLg
I only steal from the best. ^_^
Nah man, your cool. Link is there just for WaveRocker’s reference.
Apropos of nothing, but thanks for doing that rundown of 2099 last year. Kinda broke into comic books reading that series, and it is still my favorite overall.
Truly, you have earned an internet for making me really *laugh out loud*.
This is why I like Danny. He might not be the smartest, but he’s a great guy who does what’s right.
PTU Danny you tell him.
PTU
Wow, with just one panel Danny’s public perception has shot way up!
F-YEAH DANNY!!!
I…I need a few moments to handle this…Danny actually did somthing good
My whole world has just flipped upside down.
I’d like you to take a minute, just sit right there and tell me all about how you became the prince of a town called Bell Air.
Hell yeah. Danny just became awesome.
Okay, there’s a whole thing here with Amber’s past and unresolved rage issues that probably need to be addressed for good mental health…
But man, fuck it, I’m glad she punched the crap outta her piece of shit dad. And I have never been more proud of Danny than I am tonight.
Good job Danny. You worked things out and did the RIGHT thing. We’ll see how long this happy moment lasts though.
Great. Knowing Willis, Danny’s spit will be swabbed for DNA and he’ll be in trouble with the law.
HOW MUCH SALIVA DOES THAT BOY HAVE?
Not having recent spit-swapping time with Amazi-Girl recently, his saliva reserves are at maximum.
Awww, I finally like Danny!
Danny! Quit attacking Amber!
No Danny! The DNA!!!
Huh. Go Danny!
I’m frightened. There this feeling in my heart about Danny, and it isn’t giving me the urge to vomit. I…I think I may actually…like something he did.
This world is alien and strange, and I am terrified.
How could anyone see the ordeal?
Breathing intensifies
Jeebuz, Danny, about frigging time you grabbed a clue. Nice to see you remained consistent in your values, re Amber/Amazi-Girl, even if you’re a bit thick.
Oh my god. Is there an actual character under Danny’s blandness?
He did it… The son of a bongo did it!
I never could really judge Danny poorly, because he’s something like 18 (17?) and kids that age make a lot of stupid mistakes. (Wow, that makes me sound old…)
But this strip goes a long way to redeeming him.
Woah, Danny isn’t danning this up at all! How out of character!
This comic as a result of the previous week of comics: least surprising, most satisfying.
You know what, Danny?
You’re kind alright.
YAY!!! Good for you Danny!
Danny finally got on the F-bomb scoreboard!
Congratulations, Danny. You’ve successfully one-upped the other universe’s Mike (http://www.shortpacked.com/index.php?id=1628).
Of course, this means he’ll be coming for you. And your mom. Who’ll be coming for him.
What I am worried about is the fact that Blaine will go after Danny, trying to manipulate Amber. Abusers don’t care who they hurt, they are tunnel vision to get that person that they hate with a passion.
Well, yes, Blaine *already* went after Danny to get to Amber. That’s what Amber still needs to own up to — she not only lied to him; she put him in danger.
I can’t help but feel that the hover text is a bit of a poke at some of the more virulent anti-Danny sentiment.
Woo Danny. I knew my liking of you was not mistaken.
Your avatar is Mike. I think you might be sending mixed signals.
This is going to escalate for Danny. I imagine things are going to get worse. Amber has committed assault. Blaine might not realize it was Amber, but he knows who Danny is, and he no doubt realizes there is a connection between them.
Yeah, considering Danny was all ‘That’s Amazi-Girl’ before the rumble went down. Blaine will try something when he recovers.
Sea hawks won the Superbowl and Danny spits on Blaine this is definitely one of my best days
Sure it’s great that they won, but did they have to win so… excessively?
Thank God. Now my choice of Danny being my third favorite character doesn’t seem quite so terrible.
Awesome. And I don’t mean spitting on the dude so much as everything before it.
I… kind of like him now?
(Mayor Quimby Voice) “You’re all a bunch of fickle mush heads!”
Give us hell, Arturo!
Everyone’s loving Danny for the last panel, but the panel that does it for me is panel 3. That’s the panel which redeems him.
Yep. I’ve been in the “Sigh. Kids are dumb.” camp regarding Danny, but that panel showed some nobility he may grow into.
I agree, the last panel was a nice touch, but panel 3 sealed the deal first
I had exactly the same thought in my mind once I read the mouseover text.
We should all wish to Dan things up this much. Wows. Affirming and supportive, has a firm understanding of both of their roles, doesn’t question the facts now they’re finally out, has enough of an eye on their surroundings to point out things she’s missed (and their implications), doesn’t add to the already out-of-control emotions with further complications, and most importantly doesn’t add to the violence, giving her the safety she so badly needs. And he’s what, 18?
In even more awe of the writing than usual. Willis *rocks*.
Aw, Danny, you can do better than this. Throw in a kick or something. I mean sure, spitting on him’s alright, but he won’t feel it in the state Amber has put him in.
well he could take the time to kick him or something, but he needs to get Amber away, priorities and all
I’m kinda getting tired of the Danny hatred. Yeah, there’s a lot of “What’re you doing, Danny?” moments and getting mad at him for them is perfectly understandable. But people keep acting like he can never ever not fuck up. It’s like people think he’ll never get any character development or whatever, despite all of the character development that’s been going on in this comic for other characters.
But I dunno. I didn’t exactly much of the earlier Willis comics.
I support Danny, and I’ve been constantly concerned that he was going to be the only one out of the bunch who wouldn’t get as much character development as the others, and that he was gonna remain the butt of every joke with any redeeming qualities hugely overlooked in favor of irrelevant grudges against an alternate universe interpretation of him. It was about time he got a chance to shine, I think, and hopefully public opinion of him will eventually change.
For me, Dumbing of Age is my first Willis comic, so I don’t really know about, nor do I currently care, about the Walkyverse. I’ll probably look into it more in the future, though.
I don’t know if anyone brought this up before (probably) but Danny has a severe case of the Skyler Whites/Betty Drapers.
As in, the significant other to our Badass Protagonist With A Secret who keep getting in the way of the Badass Protagonist and are thus unsympathetic even if they aren’t in the wrong, from their own point of view. And who, for example, make decisions that we know are totally stupid, that will screw up both them and the Badass Protragonist, but that seem like the best idea to them at the time because they don’t have all the information because the Badass Protagonist is keeping it from them.
Obviously in this case Amazi-Girl/Amber isn’t evil, and her interests aren’t divergent from Danny’s as is the case of Walter and Skyler or Don and Betty, but I still see parallels.
I look forward to seeing how their relationship is affected by him actually knowing stuff now !
This is a cathartic moment for me. I identify with Danny; his occasional cluelessness, his unintentional assholery, his loyalty to his friends, and his naturally kind-hearted nature. But all the Danny-hate recently was kind of making me feel like crap for associating with him. Now people are starting to catch on that even though he may be an idiot at times, he’s also a decent kid whose heart is in the right place.
So, thank you for redeeming him, Willis.
Yeah same here
This. This exactly.
I never saw him as a bad guy. Just a nice, naive idiot with enough good intentions to pave that very same highway to hell. I’m just glad he’s caught on to what’s going on and asking LESS questions in the heat of the moment. He’s had a really bad habit of trying to understand everything as it was happening around him. He’s now begun to understand act now, ask later when he sees a perilous situation, especially when it involves people he cares about. But yes, I’m beyond ecstatic that Danny now knows more about Amber and will be able to be more open with one another.
Also, that last panel…cringe worthy. In my culture, spitting on someone is the ULTIMATE insult. You could say anything about them and their mother, but spit on them, especially on the face…hell hath no fury like a Haitian scorned.
well If anybody deserves to be spat on, it’s Blaine
Not much different in Western, m’friend. I’m sure if Blaine was awake Danny would be next on the hit list.
Oh, is that the phone ringing? I think it is, can someone pick it up because I FUCKING CALLED IT.
Panel 3. Congrats, Mr. Willis. That makes my heart very happy.
I knew that was in there, waiting for the right moment to be revealed.
Oh boy, that was potentially a huge mistake.
Danny deserves what he gets if he couldn’t even be bothered to watch all 5 seasons of the wire and learn WHY YOU DON’T SPIT ON THE PEDOPHILES.
OK, so why don’t you spit on the pedophiles? Not severe enough?
Leaving DNA at the scene of a crime is generally a bad idea.
Not unless the rain washes it off.
Depends where it hit him, if it hits fibre such as his shirt then there’s a chance it will absorb into the cloth before it washes off.
If we can get enough people to spit on the pedophiles it will combine and scramble the DNA enough to totally and completely render the DNA testing futile.
Oh my god, that third panel just made me cry. Such feels.
…So, how many strips until the McDonalds’ witnesses see Danny and report him to the police as the only observable culprit?
It’s raining, and dark. I don’t think they can see his face and even then, unless they know Danny there’s not much of the police can do with a rough description of his features.
Considering that it is dark and raining, and people at Mickey D’s are some distance away, the description would go something like “male, approximately 20 years old, 5 foot 8 or so (and I’m guessing at that), light brown hair, wearing jeans and a dark blue long-sleeve shirt.” In a college town like Bloomington, can you imagine how many people match that description on any given day?
I finally, at last, like Danny.
I wonder how far Danny will go to keep Amber’s identity secret?
Some of Danny’s spit gets into Blaine’s wounds, and mixes with his blood. This causes their radioactive* DNA to combine, which turns Blaine into the Amazing Dannyman: a genuinely nice, well-meaning guy.
Upon awakening, Blaine remembers the horrible things he’s done and (since he’s now nice), is horrified. He immediately falls into a trauma-driven comatose state, and when he awakens he finds his memory to be spotty in places: he’s blotted out the memory of all the horrible things he’s done, and in places fabricated altered stories to take their places where he’s an at least fairly decent, caring dad, instead of the total jackass he actually was.
A bit confused, he finds himself in the town where his beloved daughter is attending school, and tries to visit her. She reacts poorly, naturally; however (being Amber), she doesn’t really explain why. Her angry shouts leave him quite confused, which isn’t lessened when he is escorted off campus.
Thus ensues a saga where Blaine tries to reconnect with his daughter, failing to understand the situation because nobody takes the time to tell him about his past. The various comic mishaps and misunderstandings, which cause stress and trauma for everyone involved, will come to be known in the fandom as “Blaining it up”.
* They’ve both used a cell phone recently
** All he remembers of Amazi-girl is that she beat him up for no reason while he was waiting to talk to Amber. Based on his accounts, plus the fact that she keeps coming after him, she becomes a genuinely police-hunted vigilante. Oh, Blaine!
Danny’s noblest quality has always been his loyalty, but it’s been hampered by two things: his expectation of the same loyalty in return, and his obliviousness. That’s why he reacts badly to perceived betrayal, and why he perceives (“sudden”) betrayal when others would have recognized there was more to it. Hence the rough breakup with Dorothy (“why would she dump me after I followed her here?”) Hence the anger at Amber “pretending” to be his girlfriend (“but she knows I’m with someone else!”)
Keep him well-informed, and you have no better ally. Leave him out of the loop on something, and you risk him acting in confusion when he gets part, but only part, of the picture.
In other words, he’s a textbook Hufflepuff.
Danny: “I demand 23 retroactive judgement points.”
Let’s hope Willis doesn’t feel the need to confirm Danny’s personality again.
Danny’s a squirtle now!
Danny I’ve trusted you to be competent and you’ve hurt me time and time again. So i’m just gonna please ask you to keep up the good work and try not to fall back into past habits
HA! See, I like Danny. He’s a little slow, but…ah hell, the hover text pretty much covered it. Good on ya, Dan.
Sal will come around, and get beaten up by Amber. ¨What did Ah do?!¨
I hope not. Any cred she has with Danny as justification for what she just did to Blaine will be lost if she out of no where (and at this point in time, outside of Amber’s memories it IS out of no where) starts beating up on Sal.
Whoa. What a surprise.
Danny suddenly gained many points.
And in one loogie Dumbiverse Danny has just made himself awesome. KUDOS TO YOU! Tasty chocolate covered kudos, with the M&Ms in them.
But given the direction the story has taken, what will happen if Amazi-Girl doesn’t have and Amazi-Condoms left? What will — oh, yeah, Danny rooms with Joe. No problem!
I was so annoyed by Danny before this strip, even though I knew Amber hadn’t given him all the info. But now even Blaine didn’t recognise Amber….so I believe Willis’s point throughout the comic is that she was unrecognizable to everyone, not only Danny. Anyway, I really admire Danny in this strip. He doesn’t even have to think about forgiving Amber for keeping him in ignorance, he just accepts and shows his devotion to her.
And now hopefully Danny and Amber can escape from the looky loos from McDonalds.
What’s that sound? It sounds like…is that…Yes! It’s Danny’s balls dropping!
Holy Crap! Did Danny not just Danny something up?
Danny finally did something right. Well, its been fun, guys. But the fabric of the universe is clearly tearing apart so it’s likely that we’re all going to die
I never know how to feel about spitting on people. Not that Blaine isn’t a terrible, terrible person, it’s just spitting seems like sinking to his level.
One would need a jackhammer, a copy of the Necronomicon, and a goat to sink to Blaine’s level. When Blaine’s mother was pregnant, a lesser demon got to her before God could and shit where his soul was supposed to go.
So do you jackhammer the goat into the necronomicon, or…?
…and, in Shortpacked!, Robin is craving salad. Truly the world is coming to its end!
I feel like Danny has shown true potential with his actions. Not only is he making sure Amazi-girl doesn’t get caught but he also took the time to disrespect Blaine. Danny I think I misjudged you. I am sorry.
About time, Danny. Well done, sir. Well done.
“Later, jerkhole. I’m not fuckin’ your daughter… yet.”
FINALLY Danny. Thank the stars!
and then the entire DoA comments section explodes because Danny didn’t do something stupid or misinformed
danny is a real pal and keeper if he is willing to not only spit on blaine but help amber run away as not to get caught by the soon to arrived cops. as for blaine that ought to teach him not to mess with amber ever again.
Except for the small problem that Blaine doesn’t know he ever messed with Amber.
The debate: “Danny’s a jerkwad, no matter the universe” vs. “Uhh, in the Dumbingverse, I think he’s a good guy who’s just kinda really stupid.”
As of this strip, I think the “kinda really stupid” camp is winning.
Not all that stupid apparently, just woefully out of the loop…till now that is, and about time too!
I hope Amber didn’t leave anything behind for Blaine to find.
depends, are we counting the knuckle-prints, boot marks and bruises?
Oh man, Danny is actually a half-decent guy? Shocked comments incoming.
For anyone who’s still on about the DNA thing:
Here in the state of Washington, we recently managed to convict a serial rapist. As I’m sure you can imagine, few crimes leave clearer DNA evidence than that.
However, simply having the rapist’s DNA was insufficient. The state only keeps a database of DNA if you’re convicted of a violent felony – and this guy hadn’t been. Unfortunately, this meant that when he was arrested for another crime, three victims ago, the police didn’t have enough information to detain him, and had to let him go.
There’s currently a movement afoot, supported by the three women who would not have been attacked had the rapist been identified earlier, to permit the collection of DNA on arrest for any felony charge, similar to the collection of fingerprints and photographs. Had this law been on the books, the criminal would have been caught earlier, and these women would not have been attacked.
Somehow, I doubt the state this takes place in has DNA collection laws in place – even assuming Danny’s ever been arrested for anything in that state…
Way to go, Danny! I always liked you, regardless of the hate, knowing you are always well intentioned, if a little clueless at times. I am proud to share the same name as you.
It just hit me what Amber reminds me of in that first panel.
That look of crushing defeat on her face is the same one Buzz Lightyear had when he had finally accepted his fate as a toy and given up.
Clearly, I will go sailing no more.
