      They need to go to Dorothy’s room them. Her Roomie is Sierra, who I imagine would be pretty cool with this (Walky stayed over and we heard no complaint).

      If it’s Walky’s room, then Mike is going to be the obstacle. They’ll walk in and he’ll be in bed with BOTH their moms, and ruin the whole mood.

      I think they’re good.  Amber seemed rather … hesitant when shown the condoms originally.  If these had been ‘altered’ with malice aforethought one would think she would have had a cover story prepared and been more adept in delivering it.

      Not to mention simple examination of the package would reveal any possible pinholes.

            Simple: She did it to save the world. That’s it. You want more?
            Complex: In order to save the world, he future self came back in order to create a time loop without the knowledge of her present self. By poking holes in the condoms, she would knowingly be adding a Walkerton into the future. Amazi-girl nor Amber would see Dorothy, as she was accepted to Harvard in two weeks time. She would decide to leave immediately, and while Walky was sad, would understand. Once Dorothy arrived, she realized she was pregnant. Unsure of how to handle this, and sure that it would reflect badly on her if it ever reached the light of day, she panicked. And that is when Ms. Future comes into the story. Again. Promising safety and secrecy, a deal is struck to throw her nine months into the past. Dorothy, unsure, accepts, knowing of no other sane options. She loses nine months of her life, and struggles with the dilemma of either raising the child, or going after her dreams. Eventually, in the dead of night, after she gives birth, she falls into a deep sleep, exhausted. She still does not know what to do. Amazi-girl steals the child, and Dorothy’s decision away from her. Taking the long route, Amazi-girl raises the child to be the ultimate warrior. And years later. When the war is raging, and the Emperor known only as M. Laughs like an asshole over the world, he grips Amazi-girl, and whispers. You failed. Before the final blow could be struck, she threw open a portal in time, and flew into the past. From the shadows, emerged a frail old Amazi-girl. And a young boy, named Bobby. Bobby Walkerton. The battle rages for a day and a half. Until, finally, Bobby is victorious. M is defeated. Yet, his generals still remained. During the day and a half of his occupation, Amazi-girl was given enough time to finally orchestrate the most brilliant, multiple assassination of all time. Slaying all of the Five Cent Generals, within a single minute. A single second.
            Tired, she collapses. And slowly, dies. A smile on her face. The future is safe.
            There are many details, here I will not mention. Those will come in the Short story version. Which may or may not ever happen. But if it does, it will be glorious.
            GLORIOUS!

    But she likes rainy days
    And that’s my weakness now!

      Tell me about the rain, not about the fine weather,
      Fine weather sicks me and sets my teeth on edge.
      Blue Skies get on my nerves
      For the greatest love I’ve had on earth
      I owe it to the bad weather, I owe it to Jupiter
      It struck me like a thunderbolt from a stormy sky.

        Treat ’em with Rain-X.  Or wear a hat with a brim the correct way, with the brim facing front.

        Or just leave ’em off.  I’m nearsighted — so much so that I don’t need them for closeup work like at the keyboard right now — but not so bad that I can’t recognize objects at a distance.  I could see, for example. someone crossing the street or an oncoming car; I just wouldn’t be able to read a license number or visually identify the person.

    Backing up a little, what does it say about AG that she brands her condoms. I mean, that already have a brand name on them. It shows a commitment to her hero identity that is pretty psychotic.
    As for the rain, rain with the right person is like a lot of things with the right person. If it helps put the two of you together alone, its all good.

    I don’t want to work
    I want to bang on the drum all day
    I don’t want to play
    I just want to bang on the drum all day

    Ever since I was a tiny boy
    I don’t want no candy
    I don’t need no toy
    I took a stick and an old coffee can
    I bang on that thing ’til I got
    Blisters on my hand because

    When I get older they think I’m a fool
    The teacher told me I should stay after school
    She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
    But my licks was so hot
    I made the teacher wanna dance
    And that’s why

    Listen to this
    Every day when I get home from work
    I feel so frustrated
    The boss is a jerk
    And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
    And I pound on that drum like it was the boss’s head
    Because

    I can bang that drum
    Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?

    – Todd Rundgren, “Bang On The Drum,” 1983

      Are the “Slipshine” panels going to become canon?  And will it become necessary to have seen them in order to fully appreciate future strips, or is just knowing that Dorothy and Walky have lost their amateur status going to be good enough?
