        It would still have a chance of going right – except, in Willis world, there’s only that one place that serves pizza, and no others.

        Because why would anyone else think there was any money to be made competing in the pizza slinging market in a college town?

            There are. Biologists have been singing epics about morays for, uh, a few years at least.

            If you swim in the sea and an eel bites your knee,
            that’s a moray;
            if its mouth opens wide and there’s another inside,
            that’s a moray!
            If it lurks in a reef and has two sets of teeth,
            that’s a moray;
            if it goes for your leg and breaks it like an egg,
            that’s a moray!

          …I mean, that WOULD be the perfect time for Mike to show up. Much as he was able to rely on the perfect timing for a superhero, this too is a time founded fundamentally upon the internal logic of the forces that power Mike and give him his essence of being.

          You know.

        The person entering Galasso’s in front of them lets go of the door slightly too early, and it hits Joe in the face.

        Connie trips carrying a tray, it goes flying and hits Joe in the face.

        Joe excuses himself to the bathroom, and the faucet’s broken so it sprays him in the face with water.

        As they’re leaving, they catch a glimpse of a cloud formation that vaguely resembles Mike’s hair.

        Amber faintly hears Mike cackling.

        Depends on the religion! Christianity would indeed be a disappointment for a zillion reasons, but there’s plenty of pagan practices out there that would accommodate scientific rigor, rather than demanding the other way around.

        But instead of face punching makes a casual comment that they didn’t expect Joyce and Joe recognise the mutual attraction for at least a month, prompting Joyce to sputter “Joe isn’t interested in me!” Followed by Joe’s “About that- wait a minute”.

          True, though I’m not sure how much emotional labor Joyce is willing to do now to pretend to be her old self. Unless I’m forgetting a bunch of context, Joyce kinda seems low on fucks to give at present, especially towards Becky (sad trombone) – as much as I think in the long term they might be able to make peace.

          Personally, I’m still not *100%* convinced that Booster isn’t Mike in a new (much happier) identity, one where they don’t have to pretend to be a dick all the time in order to protect against the looming threat of Amber’s father’s retribution. One where they’re allowed to have loved ones.

          …But I do realize that’s unlikely to be canon. The two of them just share a lot of interest in applied psychology, is all.

      Reminds me of the old CD jukeboxes Papa Gino’s used to have. The speakers had basically zero treble left in them, so all you got was muffled midrange with a little bass. They also used to have classic arcade machines, but they got rid of them several years ago. A different local pizza place got a working Turtles in Time machine about 10 years ago, but I think the servers got tired of listening to the attract mode all day every day because they disconnected the speaker after a few months.

      Now where was I… oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn’t get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones…

      I think she likes him. Furthermore, she probably wants to know how he’s done. She seemed impressed he helped Amber, and beyond that, she has gone to him in the past to talk about her parents’ problems, so maybe she wants to return the favor.

      Naw, she cares a lot about Joe and they have historically bonded by discussing shared experiences of family conflict. Plus Amber specifically encouraged Joyce to come talk to Joe about his anxieties, and in the context of Amber talking about how SHE and Joe have bonded by talking about them. This is very much not out of nowhere on Joyce’s part.

    Two thoughts.

    First: Alt-text “no mike” har-har-har 😉 But also, there is,and it’s all in Amber’s head, so maybe this is **all** a Dynasty delusion…

    Second: Despite my emotional desire to horn out over Joe and Joyce, this also kinda tropes on dudes not being able to be emotionally vulnerable with women unless they’re attracted to them. Which is a whole issue in the toxic masculinity umbrella. Whichever way this is being played, I’m keen to see it all.

      Are we just villifying all human interaction now, is that what we’re doing?

Do you just not talk to your friends about things or make that offer to them? I mean, you do you, but we can’t just go around declaring simple, positive interactions like this to be “not okay”.

        Doors are technically boundaries, right? Knocking typically involves making a fist and hitting the door, which is technically violence. Therefore, Joyce is violently coercing Joe into removing a boundary he set, with the intent to then pry into his insecurities for her own selfish purposes.

      This was my first thought too. But for more context, Joe has been there for Joyce when she was at her parents house with Becky. Maybe she feels grateful to him and wants to be there for him too? And maybe she’d back off if he said he didn’t want to discuss it? Especially now that she’s more conscious of not crossing boundaries.

      It’s a bit pushy and the way Joe described it as “make me fess up” indicates he wouldn’t share this of his own volition. But I also think that may be part of the persona he puts up, a person who would never willingly share his feelings. If he really didn’t want to talk to Joyce about it he could tell her to get lost. This might be seen as manipulative with someone else, but I think Joe is okay with it.

    Oh my god, are we actually getting a pizza not-date that because they are pretty clearly gone on each other looks kind of like a date?

    Oh, and it’s even happening when Becky’s in Gender Studies and thus can’t be a dick to Joyce’s face during the not-date or snipe on the subject of Joe’s Y-chromosome or whatever thoughtless disruptive Becky thing she’d do! YAY.

    Of course, this just means Becky will hear about it later, jump to the conclusion that Joyce is dating dudes and keeping it secret from her, and she’ll be a jerk about that instead. (Might as well ruin my ‘called it’ streak early LOL!)

      It really does feel like a lose-lose situation with Becky, ever since she learned about Joyce losing her faith. She was always quippy and teased Joyce a lot, but now it just feels mean-spirited most of the time.

    This is so cute and so wholesome. And this is really good for Joe. He’s learning how to be supportive really well and learning to gain some support too and not feel bad about it and working through his issues this is nice I like the growth from him and Joyce even if they have their hangup. Pizza Date do over!!!

    This is not a discussion Joe wants to have in his shared bedroom. Pizza is about as neutral as it gets. Especially if it’s afternoon and not evening. They might end up talking more about his divorced father and her divorced mother. Both were role models until they weren’t.

    Joe just got his second date, and Joyce doesn’t even realise.
    which is probably best as no pressure expectations put on Joyce.

    I think it becomes a date retroactively if hes honest and she reacts positively.

Had a dream about Dumbing Of Age a couple of days ago that I couldn’t get out of my head so I had to illustrate it lol @damnyouwillis.bsky.social #webcomic #dumbingofage #webcomics
A comic depicting a dream I had about the current arc of the webcomic Dumbing Of Age by David Willis. 

Panel 1
Joyce, holding hands with Dorothy, with a pouty face: Sorry, Joe, but Dorothy and I are dating now.

Panel 2
There is a sad pause where Joe realises what’s happening, frowning with sad eyes. 

Panel 3
Joe, raising a finger up thoughtfully: I am very happy for you. Now if you’ll excuse me.

Panel 4
Joe, running down the hallway, screaming: HEY I NEED TO HAVE SEX CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HAVE SEX WITH ME I REALLY WANT TO FUCK RIGHT NOW THAT WOULD BE SUPER GREAT I WANT SEX PLEASE

Panel 5
Jennifer, appearing out of nowhere, handing Joyce a beer can: Hold my beer.

Panel 6
Joe, continuing to run: SEX PLEASE SEX PLEASE GIMME SEX PLEASE
Jennifer chases after Joe, clearly going to satiate his needs. Joyce stares with disappointment and annoyance, still holding the beer can.
