AAAGH!
on June 19, 2020 at 12:01 amChapter: A Mild Dorothy Appears!
Characters: David Walkerton, Joyce Brown
Location: Joyce and Walky's apartment
By Cartoon Eyes In Darkness Rules, Joyce’s peepers are like spotlights.
Really burying the lede of Joyce’s apparent night terrors, huh.
half of mine are literally just the alarm going off and I can’t ACTUALLY wake up to turn it off so it’s just my head vibrating for five minutes
(I have a “silent” alarm that isn’t actually silent)
My alarm intruding into my dreams happens more often than I like to think about. Finally waking up after spending what felt like hours in a dream crying because the GODDAMN BEEPING NOISE JUST WILL NOT STOP does not make for a very good morning…
… I mean I’m not SURPRISED they have boatloads of trauma, but still. You’d think that’d come up a bit more often than this one punchline.
… I fought of a Martian invasion, and all I got were these lousy night terrors.
I mean, I figured she was using the term colloquially rather than clinically.
I’d be pretty freaked out if I woke up and saw eyes like that too.
I am almost positive this was a garfield joke.
I thought she bought fake glow-in-the-dark eyes to do a cartoon eyes in darkness bit.
