    Life is a McNugget train
    Here in IU
    Hand scars, skaters, Toe Dad, Blaine
    I’m-a fite you
    Might get some fat ass
    Or flunk out math class

    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo
    Everyday they’re out there rhyming
    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo
    That don’t rhyme yet still they’re chiming
    Fleshball

    D-d-d-dotty, what’s Joyce saying
    There’s a joke here but it’s lame-ing
    What to do about this awful

    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo
    This song fell apart because of
    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo
    Coulda sang about college, but
    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo
    Not coherent lines or Valentine’s, it’s

    Fleshball, oo-OO-oo *DUN*

        Dorothy: “Sex, Joyce. The thing I’m currently missing about Walky is the sex. I don’t really think you want to ‘fill’ that particular ‘void’.”
        Joyce: ….
        *Joyce pulls on a rubber glove with a snap*
        Dorothy: “… what are you planning to do with that?”
        Joyce: “You’re going to need to guide me ’cause I’m going have my eyes closed.”

            As much as I would like to see that 😋, I don’t think Becky will handle it too well. She’s tried making a move (that the right term?) on Joyce and got nowhere, she already has that “rivalry” with Dorothy, if Becky discovered that Joyce helped “fill the void” for Dorothy, she might go a bit crazy, maybe even seduce Dorothy herself…

            That would be an interesting plot development, let’s go with that…

    Eventually these characters will have grown up with the 2017 version of DuckTales. And that’s okay.

      They are already too old to have really grown up with the ’87 version. That’s what I grew up with and I’m approaching twice their age (*sob!*).

      Considering Walky is still very much a fan of cartoons, and DT ’17 is truly excellent (I watch it despite my decrepitude), I see no reason he wouldn’t be into it.

    For now, for Dorothy, the scene is so quiet and the focus is allocated better. And it is just November?

    I wouldn’t mind a Walky relapse on Dotty’s part, I like them together and think they are good for each other. But on the other hand Dotty has a healthy attitude about it so it’s all good.

    Maybe it’s time for Joyce to admit she has some bi tendencies and ride that Dotty train?

      On the other hand, despite her very best efforts, Dorothy was never able to get Walky to study on his own terms; he was only doing it for her, and even then he basically self-sabotaged every study session with Jason.

      Amber managed to do it (admittedly, mostly via hacking his grades for a self-esteem boost).

    I ship Dorothy with Jacob. Jacofthy? Doorknob?

    Order of the Stick has not resumed updating yet, probably because of the Cthuluhoid weirdness that is the International Date Line. (It doesn’t pass through R’lyeh by accident, boys and girls!) Or because OotS’s server is west of DoA’s server. Or something. But I have a reprieve! It will definitely be at least 3 February in every part of the USA 24 hours from now. Unless OotS does not update until very very late in something like Hawai’ian Time it ought to sneak in before Mike comes up like a big red rubber ball.

      I think it’s because Walky is actually a complicated guy pretending to be simple, and it’s always easier to imitate a character than a real person.
