well, the actual Japanese pronunciation is t-soon-deh-reh (although the quick t at the beginning is almost indistinguishable from just “soon” to the untrained ear)
Yeah, absolutely no Japanese people say it to rhyme with “thunder” because in Japanese, it’s always spelled つんでれ which can only be pronounced /tsoo/ /n/ /de/ /reh/. I still thought your joke was cute, but don’t try to speak for cultures you don’t belong to/languages you don’t speak.
I assume that’s Ruth getting the spanking in that scenario. Hmm. Must ponder the philosophical implications of this for a while. I shall be in my bunk should you need me.
My parents have been divorced for nearly 30 years, yet still if you mention connect-the-dots around my mother she will start ranting about the night my dad came to bed with a marker. Naturally, she had asked why he had a marker and he said “with all those dots, there’s got to be a picture in there somewhere.”
It pissed her off enough that even now she gets enraged about it and will rant for an hour about how childish my dad is.
She also gripes about him telling her she was “just a dozen freckles shy of a really good tan.”
And now I’m really hoping that every time I see Ruth I don’t get reminded of my mother.
When I read Annie’s comment, my first thought was, “Gee, I wish I’d come up with those.” I’d like to encounter a redhead who would think lines like that were just hilarious, and who was attracted to funny guys.
Ok, good pun and all, but the phrase “The time has come” just makes me want to complete it with “the Walrus said”, but I really don’t want walruses involved in this…
You know, if you don’t cancel after the first month, it’s only $9 a month instead of 25. The other comics are worth it, and Willis doesn’t seem to be stopping with these.
Agreed. This looks like it’s going to be adorable.
Of course, there’s always the possibility that Willis is about to turn it around and make it sad, but I’m hoping for adorable sexy times for Ruth and Billie. Gods know, they deserve a little adorable.
I kind of wish they’d sell non-subscription items. I really liked Mr. Willis’s preview, but getting Netflix for its Louis C.K. stuff when you could have just bought the DVD.
There is some truth to the stereotype of people who are domineering in daily life wanting to be sexually submissive. Ruth fits that decently enough I’d think. Though she seems more switch-y. What with the shove-smooching lo these many moons ago. Now, that Galasso dude, I imagine he’s all about, like, having ladypersons in high heels embark on a hiking expedition upon his testicles.
You imply Galasso knows enough about what sex is to have feelings of arousal, recognize them, and seek out that sensation. I mean, he has a daughter, but on the other hand: ‘mealdisks’.
Exactly. If DOA Galasso is anything like the Walkyverse one, he’s pretty much the male version of Tyler’s mother from Girls with Slingshots. Before that chat with Clarice and Hazel.
They’d probably make a great couple if Tyler’s mom wasn’t such a hardcore Christian and Galasso wasn’t, y’know, too busy resurrecting historical Jesus and trying to take over the world.
Who am I kidding? She’d probably assume Historical Jesus was the second coming.
I have, uh, only been with two lady people, but neither of their clitorises got all THAT stiff. Then again maybe I just wasn’t reciting those old Icelandic sagas at them loud enough.
Biologically, it is definitely erectile tissue (developmentally it is the same exact tissue). From my very limited first hand experience, it certainly seemed to engorge and become more rigid. “Stiff” sounds reasonable to me.
Try writing the sagas out instead. With your tongue.
(Seriously, if I’m ever with a lady who goes, “Hey, you’re just doing the alphabet trick with the Elder Fuþark,” I’m asking her to marry me right there.)
I’ve found, anyway, that there’s a fair amount of local variation in properties from one lady to the next.
Willis needs to change his middle name to “Pornlord”. Or add it on as a title, “Pornlord David Willis”. Or both. Or put it at the end, “David Willis, Pornlord”. Or all three. “Pornlord David ‘Pornlord’ Willis, Pornlord”
A duke is way better than a lord. Or, a higher title anyway. Like, just a little under a king high. So, a Pornduke would be quite the, uh, I don’t know how to finish that sentence.
Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do
You’d be half-crazy, not to come into this room
It won’t be a sapphic marriage, but Ruth’s in her underwearage
But it will smell sweet, when you sniff at her seat
And Billie’s for good measure too
Actually, unless Billie gave her a new one, doesn’t she not have a key anymore, since Ruth changed the locks after she caught Billie drinking that one time?
Mind you, in light of more recent events, I could see a new key having been given. On the other hand, Ruth doesn’t really need to, since Billie improved her lock picking skill.
I doubt that Billie actually needs a key any more: this arc started when Ruth walked into her room to find Billie already there, having picked the lock on the door.
Let’s make a flowchart:
1: Is it on Earth? If yes, go to 2. If no, there almost certainly aren’t any wild dogs there.
2: Is it on land? If yes, go to 3. If no, there probably aren’t any wild dogs there.
3: Is the landmass populated by humans? If yes, it probably has wild dogs.
They’re everywhere, and kicking them in the head doesn’t always get them to back down. Sometimes it just makes them angrier. You have my sympathy, Benjy.
Where the human population density is high enough, and they are determined enough to not allow dogs to roam free, you won’t find wild dogs. I never even heard of such a thing living my whole life in suburbs and cities.
Then again, I did get bitten by dogs, three times. They weren’t feral, they were just assholes.
I don’t know about the American hinterland, but you’ll have a hard time locating wild dogs in, say, western Europe or in the New York metro area. Once there’s no wilderness for wildlife to inhabit, and humans leave no easy food sources around, and reports of sightings of loose animals are promptly responded to by animal control, it does become impossible for large wild animals to survive.
Small animals like rats, sure, and nocturnal animals like cats that are good at hiding… Dogs, not so much.
Interesting. I didn’t know that. Strike NYC from my previous post, then!
The point that I meant to make was: when humans put their minds to eliminating wild canines, they can and they will. In western Europe, wolves exist only in a few places where they are left alone, and a few more where they have been re-introduced. Everywhere else, there are none, because they have been deliberately exterminated. We could do the same thing to foxes if we wanted to, and we do do the same thing to wild dogs.
Yeah, things like wolves, many dogs, and even coyotes are big enough to potentially eliminated. Foxes seem to be small enough and adaptable enough to have an easier time though. Even smaller and it becomes basically impossible, if the animal is flexible.
My fiancee was mauled by a pack of them when she was around 10. Scary ass shit to her, they didn’t even bark on their approach – like they were hunting her.
She got a bajillion staples in her head. She still has thick scars some 20 years later.
Glad you made it outta there Benjy.
Ruth is outside of her comfort zone here, but she’s made the right choice, I think. Billie is smiling, not smirking.
This ship is on course. Full steam ahead!
Damn you all Willis’ fanbase! I really wanna reference an ancient strip here for that threat, but the joke regarding thigh bones was played to death aeons ago.
To reduce confusion as to whether or not Faz exists, Faz has decided that he will appear in billboards posted across Disloyal Subject’s home town, portraying Faz standing in close proximity to women. These women will be dressed in revealing clothing, thereby implying that they are or will be sexed by Faz.
The only way those pictures could exist is through mastery of Photoshop.
Regular Photoshop won’t cut it, as even an art program knows the Wrong that is Faz standing in close proximity to women (especially in revealing clothing) who are not inherently disgusted by this fact, and will try to crash rather than allow this travesty into the universe.
I don’t think it’s a négligé. It looks more like a blue summer dress. I do see the line that looks like it’s Ruth’s underwear seen through the sheer fabric, but I think that’s just a shadow.
*shrugs* just depends on what the person likes to wear.
i wear short sleeves and tan easy, but i also wear pants more or less religiously so my legs are fishbelly white.
my cousin, on the other hand, who is the quintessential freckled redhead, has a lot more body confidence than i do and isn’t afraid to show her gams, so she’s get freckles every damn where.
it’s just a natural result of personal taste. *shrugs*
Well, I didn’t say Ruth was Jadzia, I said she was Dax. Ruth Dax. Ruth is the host, and Dax is the symbiot. There’d be no Jadzia or Ezri in this scenario.
It wouldn’t work artistically, but imagining Dina as obsessed with Bajoran independence as she currently is with dinosaurs, while still maintaining her sweet and earnest shyness, would just make me love the character of Kira so much. In fact, add a touch of badassery and you’ve got the ultimate Whedon fan fave sidekick, right there.
If Billie was more of a geek, her look in second-to-last panel would seem to suggest “Face it Tiger; you just hit the jackpot!” was running through her mind.
Awwww, that’s so cute. Ruth gettin’ her vamp on for Billie. The look on Billie’s face in panel 3 is priceless. Today’s forecast: In the dorm room, in the bunk, in the corner, in the dark.
I’d argue she does not stop looking cute at any point in this comic. In her first panel, she has a demure cute going on. In her second panel, I have never seen murderous rage look so cute and sexy.
It’s unfortunate that Ruth misinterprets it as amusement, but I have a feeling it’s going to turn out alright in the end, for tonight at least. Very, very alright.

I like it when you do that stuff to me
I am no angel
I like it when you talk, talk dirty when you talk, talk
Ah I love you.
You’re fooling nobody with that tough act anymore, Ruthie… *awww*
Now, close your mouth and open your lips… ;P
Approved for all ages
I was trying to be as naughty as I could without tripping any censors.
Also, I really wanna see more in the comic of shy!Ruthie. Adorkable. <3
If I ever have to explain the term “tsundere” to someone, I’m showing them this strip.
It’s not a threat. It’s foreplay!
She even has tsundere-thighs. ^_^
I was just sitting here for a few seconds going *do Tsunderes need to have a specific type of thighs?*, then I got it and now I hate you.
It’s all about the pronunciation, some Japanese pronounce it soon-dur-re, while others say sun-dar(rhymes with thunder)
And to think all this time I was pronouncing it soon-there.
Reader’s Vocabulary strikes again.
Huh… I’d always pronounced it t’sun-der-ay which sounds ridiculous now that I think about it.
If it helps any, that’s how I pronounce it. We’ll sound ridiculous together!
I always pronounced it “tsoon-dare”.
I pronounce it “Fen-Fen.”
Well it IS more Tsundere then “Valzy”
I always pronounced it tsundere.
No, that’s wrong!
well, the actual Japanese pronunciation is t-soon-deh-reh (although the quick t at the beginning is almost indistinguishable from just “soon” to the untrained ear)
I’m pretty sure nobody Japanese pronounces it sun-dar. Japanese is a phonetic language.
Tsundere! Tsundere! Tsundere-catty hoe!
Yeah, absolutely no Japanese people say it to rhyme with “thunder” because in Japanese, it’s always spelled つんでれ which can only be pronounced /tsoo/ /n/ /de/ /reh/. I still thought your joke was cute, but don’t try to speak for cultures you don’t belong to/languages you don’t speak.
Tsundere! DA NA NA NA NAAA NA NA NAAA NA
I see what you did there and I love you for it.
If anyone asks me to explain tsundere to them I will slam a book in their face and tell them to piss off and then send them a flirty text.
Hawt…
“I-I’m just explaining anime terminology to you because I want you to be less embarrassingly ignorant. It’s not because I like you or anything.”
I’m reading this, and I can’t not hear Rie Kugimiya saying that.
Is it at all possible I’m reading it in the same voice, yet have no idea what she even sounds like?
And now I’m imagining a tsundere Alphonse Elric.
He’s annoying as hell.
“I don’t know if I want to fuck you or kick your ass but either way your getting a spanking!”
I assume that’s Ruth getting the spanking in that scenario. Hmm. Must ponder the philosophical implications of this for a while. I shall be in my bunk should you need me.
“Maybe next time I’ll get your face with something else that slams shut & opens wide, just so much softer.”
And I am unashamed of conjuring that statement. Hell, I’d love it if it caught on & I heard it even in passing.
Awwwww!
She has no idea how much she just turned Billie on does she
No laughing here. Also, I find it’s best to NOT alert the police to where the body is, Ruth.
She doesn’t have to; they’d find it eventually. Probably.
They’ll try to bury her, but they’ll only find her skull, the palms of her hands, and the soles of her feet.
(it’s a biblical reference to Jezebel getting eaten by wild dogs, I am not a serial killer.)
I am sad that you don’t have a Mary grav for this comment.
That’s what they all say!
And then Ruth’s story will be even more tragic.
“I had someone I loved once, but destiny took her from me. She giggled at my lingerie, I had no choice. She had to die.”
that reminds me of that one Adam’s family movie.
What about Debbie?
I call pornographique
Sexy times commencing
Ruth’s a sweetheart in her own weird-ass way.
Dem freckles.
Time to play connect the dots!
If I tried that my girlfriend would kill me. But I’d probably die laughing. Much like Billie here will.
“Dangit Ruth these are all just triangles and quadrilaterals! Some are just line segments! That’s it, we’re going back tic tac toe.”
My parents have been divorced for nearly 30 years, yet still if you mention connect-the-dots around my mother she will start ranting about the night my dad came to bed with a marker. Naturally, she had asked why he had a marker and he said “with all those dots, there’s got to be a picture in there somewhere.”
It pissed her off enough that even now she gets enraged about it and will rant for an hour about how childish my dad is.
She also gripes about him telling her she was “just a dozen freckles shy of a really good tan.”
And now I’m really hoping that every time I see Ruth I don’t get reminded of my mother.
When I read Annie’s comment, my first thought was, “Gee, I wish I’d come up with those.” I’d like to encounter a redhead who would think lines like that were just hilarious, and who was attracted to funny guys.
I like the contrasting titles of today’s comics
AND SO IT BEGINS
THE TIME HAS CUM!!
Ok, good pun and all, but the phrase “The time has come” just makes me want to complete it with “the Walrus said”, but I really don’t want walruses involved in this…
Yeah, one Billie in a bed is enough.
Thank you, thank you, I’ll…just…show myself out
“Of cabbages and kings!”
IT IS HAPPENING
Slipshine will be getting more of my money, I see.
I honestly have mixed opinions about that…
I have fully optimistic opinions about that.
we can tell
Mine are mixed, too. It’s a mixture of giggly optimism and rampaging horniness, tho, so it’s OK.
You know, if you don’t cancel after the first month, it’s only $9 a month instead of 25. The other comics are worth it, and Willis doesn’t seem to be stopping with these.
Agreed. This looks like it’s going to be adorable.
Of course, there’s always the possibility that Willis is about to turn it around and make it sad, but I’m hoping for adorable sexy times for Ruth and Billie. Gods know, they deserve a little adorable.
I kind of wish they’d sell non-subscription items. I really liked Mr. Willis’s preview, but getting Netflix for its Louis C.K. stuff when you could have just bought the DVD.
I wouldn’t have guessed that Ruth was the babydoll type.
Hard to bring that out of someone with as much of a rough exterior personality as her.
She isn’t — she’s doing this for Billie.
There is some truth to the stereotype of people who are domineering in daily life wanting to be sexually submissive. Ruth fits that decently enough I’d think. Though she seems more switch-y. What with the shove-smooching lo these many moons ago. Now, that Galasso dude, I imagine he’s all about, like, having ladypersons in high heels embark on a hiking expedition upon his testicles.
You imply Galasso knows enough about what sex is to have feelings of arousal, recognize them, and seek out that sensation. I mean, he has a daughter, but on the other hand: ‘mealdisks’.
Exactly. If DOA Galasso is anything like the Walkyverse one, he’s pretty much the male version of Tyler’s mother from Girls with Slingshots. Before that chat with Clarice and Hazel.
They’d probably make a great couple if Tyler’s mom wasn’t such a hardcore Christian and Galasso wasn’t, y’know, too busy resurrecting historical Jesus and trying to take over the world.
Who am I kidding? She’d probably assume Historical Jesus was the second coming.
Ha ha, “coming.”
Finally.
As in, this feels like the start of the next Slipshine.
Oh, no, not Joyce as my gravatar. Don’t look at the premarital hanky-panky, Joyce!
Finally.
As in, that’s the actual title of the next Slipshine.
Again, Willis, your Grav is utterly perfect for this statement.
Can’t be about Ruth and Billie. Has to be about Joyce. Because as tightly wound as that girl is, when she gets her cork popped, it’s going to be EPIC.
I was just going to say that.
This looks like it’s gonna be the next Slip… aw darn, someone beat me to it.
Also Willis posting on tumblr “This is the next Slipshine” a bunch didn’t help.
Willis did, eh? Thanks Yotomoe for the confirmation.
“I’ll be in my bun–oh wait, no, I’ll be in your bunk. Yes.”
This is the best. The absolute best.
I’m pretty sure laughter is the furthest thing from her mind.
Am I more aroused or frightened I can decide.
It ain’t true arousal if you ain’t feelin’ both, friend.
The3 word you’re looking for is ‘scared-stiff’
What about ladies? ‘Stiff’ isn’t really a word I’d use to describe the results of blood flow for them.
“Scared slick” just doesn’t have the same ring to it.
“Panty-wetting terror.”
Nipples get stiff right? So that can work for the ladies as well.
I think you’re all forgetting this little thing called a clitoris. Just. Throwing that one out there.
I have, uh, only been with two lady people, but neither of their clitorises got all THAT stiff. Then again maybe I just wasn’t reciting those old Icelandic sagas at them loud enough.
Biologically, it is definitely erectile tissue (developmentally it is the same exact tissue). From my very limited first hand experience, it certainly seemed to engorge and become more rigid. “Stiff” sounds reasonable to me.
I may have an inkling of where your error occurred….
Try writing the sagas out instead. With your tongue.
(Seriously, if I’m ever with a lady who goes, “Hey, you’re just doing the alphabet trick with the Elder Fuþark,” I’m asking her to marry me right there.)
I’ve found, anyway, that there’s a fair amount of local variation in properties from one lady to the next.
Since clitorises are to a woman what the bell-end of a penis is to a guy, that fits a lot better.
‘scared swollen’? Nah, doesn’t really work.
Willis needs to change his middle name to “Pornlord”. Or add it on as a title, “Pornlord David Willis”. Or both. Or put it at the end, “David Willis, Pornlord”. Or all three. “Pornlord David ‘Pornlord’ Willis, Pornlord”
I think that’s giving him too much credit <:3. Maybe Porn Guy Willis.
And he should change his Twitter handle to “@f**kyouwillis.”
Anybody ever check to see what sort of degree he got in college? I’m thinking it was at least a BP (Bachelor of Pornography).
I dunno. Probably just his GED (His General Ero-equivelency Degree)
It can’t be a bachelor’s; he’s married.
I’m thinking he has a masters. In bating.
Or a PhD (the P stands for “penis” (okay maybe “phenis”)) (we all know where the D stands for).
I don’t know. I think you have to at least be in a porn to be a true porn lord..Porn Miester?…Porn Duke..are dukes better than lords?
A duke is way better than a lord. Or, a higher title anyway. Like, just a little under a king high. So, a Pornduke would be quite the, uh, I don’t know how to finish that sentence.
So what you’re saying is, a pornduke is on top of a pornlord.
The porn king is known as Thur-art. That’s not his name, you understand, he’s just the true one king.
Porn Jarl has a nice ring to it…
I’d just go with his nickname being “Stiffy.”
He could print business cards.
So Ruth was really confident the only person who was going to come was Billie I guess? XD
It’s Ruth’s room. Billie has the only other key besides university employees, and they tend to knock first.
I wonder if Daisy came into the room.
Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do
You’d be half-crazy, not to come into this room
It won’t be a sapphic marriage, but Ruth’s in her underwearage
But it will smell sweet, when you sniff at her seat
And Billie’s for good measure too
Actually, unless Billie gave her a new one, doesn’t she not have a key anymore, since Ruth changed the locks after she caught Billie drinking that one time?

I doubt that Billie actually needs a key any more: this arc started when Ruth walked into her room to find Billie already there, having picked the lock on the door.
are there feral dogs in Indiana?
Considering I was nearly attacked by two two weeks ago, yes.
Let’s make a flowchart:
1: Is it on Earth? If yes, go to 2. If no, there almost certainly aren’t any wild dogs there.
2: Is it on land? If yes, go to 3. If no, there probably aren’t any wild dogs there.
3: Is the landmass populated by humans? If yes, it probably has wild dogs.
They’re everywhere, and kicking them in the head doesn’t always get them to back down. Sometimes it just makes them angrier. You have my sympathy, Benjy.

Then again, I did get bitten by dogs, three times. They weren’t feral, they were just assholes.
Humans are no better at completely suppressing feral dogs than we are as suppressing feral cats or rats, which is to say, not at all.
I don’t know about the American hinterland, but you’ll have a hard time locating wild dogs in, say, western Europe or in the New York metro area. Once there’s no wilderness for wildlife to inhabit, and humans leave no easy food sources around, and reports of sightings of loose animals are promptly responded to by animal control, it does become impossible for large wild animals to survive.
Small animals like rats, sure, and nocturnal animals like cats that are good at hiding… Dogs, not so much.
We get a lot of urban foxes in the UK. Feral cats. But feral dogs not so much.
I can’t speak about .eu, but I am quite sure that NYC has feral dogs, coywolves, and probably coyote/dog hybrids as well.
http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/meet-the-coywolf-field-video-the-coywolf-and-its-new-york-city-habitat/8640/
Interesting. I didn’t know that. Strike NYC from my previous post, then!

Glad you made it outta there Benjy.
There will be.
Feral dogs can swim up the Ohio River into Indiana.
Or, they could, just, you know, walk.
Whoosh.
Wow, fast swimmers.
Nice
Ruth has the best foreplay.
The kind where she would threaten to shove something up your ass, which you don’t know to either take as threatening or sexy.
I think it’s been established that for these two it can be both at once.
Now THAT was just about the cutest thing you’ve ever drawn.
Ruth looks so sweet in that second panel. Although I think she misread Billie’s face in the third panel. Billie looks happy.
Ruth is outside of her comfort zone here, but she’s made the right choice, I think. Billie is smiling, not smirking.
This ship is on course. Full steam ahead!
Don’t worry, I get the feeling things will get plenty steamy shortly.
Yeah, they’ll be ‘letting off some’ soon.
A little too awkward and anxious to be “sweet” to me. But she’s trying, despite those feelings. Full points for that.
Adorable is the word! And the look on Billie’s face is smitten!
Damn, but she does clean up nicely!
*squeee*
Damn you all Willis’ fanbase! I really wanna reference an ancient strip here for that threat, but the joke regarding thigh bones was played to death aeons ago.
Man, would ya look at the femurs on that girl!
HEY, BABY! MY BONE’S CONNECTED TO YOUR… HIP BONE!
(skeleton catcalls)
That looks like a “damn my girl is sexy” look, not a “lmao what are you doing” look.
True, but it wouldn’t be a Willis comic if the characters weren’t cripplingly insecure.
Faz isn’t insecure. People wish he was, though.
No rule is universal. And thank you ever so much for reminding me that cretin existed.
To reduce confusion as to whether or not Faz exists, Faz has decided that he will appear in billboards posted across Disloyal Subject’s home town, portraying Faz standing in close proximity to women. These women will be dressed in revealing clothing, thereby implying that they are or will be sexed by Faz.
The only way those pictures could exist is through mastery of Photoshop.
Regular Photoshop won’t cut it, as even an art program knows the Wrong that is Faz standing in close proximity to women (especially in revealing clothing) who are not inherently disgusted by this fact, and will try to crash rather than allow this travesty into the universe.
The Great Faz has put his penis inside Wen. The Great Wen approves of this arrangement.
Faz is how Ruth practiced for feeding Billie to wild dogs.
Redhead in a blue dress.
This murder you speak of, would it be death by snoo snoo?
I never thought I’d died this way.
But I always really hoped.
I appreciate the effort Ruth went to here, but… am I alone in thinking she was hotter in just a T-shirt?
Surprisingly, I like the négligé. I’m usually a no-frills sort, repulsed by obvious makeup or nonfunctional clothing, but she looks good in that.
I don’t think it’s a négligé. It looks more like a blue summer dress. I do see the line that looks like it’s Ruth’s underwear seen through the sheer fabric, but I think that’s just a shadow.
I’ll readily admit to ignorance of such things.
Different strokes for different folks.
Although I’d like my desired partner in either. And then without them.
Wait… WILLIS!! IS THIS ANOTHER PRELUDE TO A GODDAMN SLIPSHINE!?
Judging from the ad he was teasing on Tumblr? YES.
DAMN YOU, WILLIS! I DON’T HAVE THE MONEY TO SUBSCRIBE TO A CARTOON PORN SITE!
I don’t either, hon. I mean, I will, for a month, but.
I’ve never seen a girl with freckles on her thighs, normally its only on the face and arms, areas often exposed to the sun.
*shrugs* just depends on what the person likes to wear.
i wear short sleeves and tan easy, but i also wear pants more or less religiously so my legs are fishbelly white.
my cousin, on the other hand, who is the quintessential freckled redhead, has a lot more body confidence than i do and isn’t afraid to show her gams, so she’s get freckles every damn where.
it’s just a natural result of personal taste. *shrugs*
…blue nightie. Is this cause of the maple leafs!?
As a vancouverite I’m OFFENDED FO REASONS!
GO ‘NUCKS!
Well, she tried to play cute and innocent, but she’s still Ruth, after all.
She’s still here, Ruth. Calm down.
If there was ever a crossover called Dumbing Space Nine, Ruth would have to play Dax.
Because freckles=Trill? So who would be Ezri?
Well, I didn’t say Ruth was Jadzia, I said she was Dax. Ruth Dax. Ruth is the host, and Dax is the symbiot. There’d be no Jadzia or Ezri in this scenario.
Wonder who else would be who?
This does not map or end well, I’m pretty sure.
But Mike might make a decent Odo. Huuuuge asshole, but, kinda for the greater good.
Mike could indeed be a good Odo, but if that comes to be, I’m not sure who I’d fear for most: whoever if Quark, or whoever is Kira!
It wouldn’t work artistically, but imagining Dina as obsessed with Bajoran independence as she currently is with dinosaurs, while still maintaining her sweet and earnest shyness, would just make me love the character of Kira so much. In fact, add a touch of badassery and you’ve got the ultimate Whedon fan fave sidekick, right there.
And Dorothy would totally be Sisko, always rubbing her temples at the antics of these idiots.
O, Canada!
awww don’t laugh billie, its sweet! she got all pretty for you!
If Billie was more of a geek, her look in second-to-last panel would seem to suggest “Face it Tiger; you just hit the jackpot!” was running through her mind.
Ah, the strip called ‘Murder’ actually abour lesbian lovers.
Go figure.
Spectacular return to form there, Ruth.
Well damn Ruth, if she wasn’t before then she is now.
This is amazing
Ruth… I don’t think she’s in a laughing mood.
What about a gaming mood?

Sexy lesbian murder pact: marginally that sexy lesbian suicide pact.
Oops, that was supposed to say “marginally better than”. Stupid phone keyboard.
I SEE THAT ADVERTISEMENT FOR “Finally” ON MONDAY THERE WILLIS. YES, IT IS ABOUT DAMN TIME.
Awwww, that’s so cute. Ruth gettin’ her vamp on for Billie. The look on Billie’s face in panel 3 is priceless. Today’s forecast: In the dorm room, in the bunk, in the corner, in the dark.
That’s actually panel four, but we know what you meant and we agree.
Feh, I meant panel four referring to Billie’s ‘jackpot’ smile.
Aaaaaand straight to orgymania. Not that I’m complaining, mind you.
… hurrrgll…
I’m sorry, were you threatening me? I kinda spaced out there, I was mentally listing all the things I’m going to do to your body…
These two are so adorable.
Again, 5 seconds are about the limit for cute when it comes to Ruth. But daaaaaang, does she make those 5 seconds count.
I’d argue she does not stop looking cute at any point in this comic. In her first panel, she has a demure cute going on. In her second panel, I have never seen murderous rage look so cute and sexy.
Billie agrees with you there.

It’s unfortunate that Ruth misinterprets it as amusement, but I have a feeling it’s going to turn out alright in the end, for tonight at least. Very, very alright.
Ruth’s freckly decolletè is compelling me to finally get me a slipshine subscription with my Christmas money
damn you Willis etc etc
a wise decision
He did say that he thought that there would be a shit ton of people signing up for slipshine with this comic. (not that exact phrasing of course)
There’s some good stuff on there. I recommend Adult Friends Comix, a really fun gag strip.
Now come here and let’s continue that thing from early in the corridor.
Ruth couldn’t allow herself to be outdone, am I right?

Adorable Ruth is adorable.
There will be no laughing, but there will be much smiling. No bad will come of this.
There will also be much shipping, and yours truly will happily contribute to it.
awww ruth is so cute
Is it a bad sign that I think Ruth is adorable here?
…I’m probably going to end up inside Wild Dogs one day.
Never did the Slipshine deal before but I’m tempted now
all Hail Willis he who delivers freckles to his young lordship
But laughter is good. It means she finds you adorable.
*sigh*
For a Canadian, Ruth sure has terribly tastes when it comes to what Hockey team to root for. T_T
Amen, Dez.
It is the single most disappointing and unrelatable part of an otherwise great character.
