And so here’s Joyce, reasserting her agency over this webcomic’s insistence that bad things had happened and so it was her time to be sad. Nope! Time for attempts at joy despite everything, sorry.
Not that this is the end of Walky and Joyce’s troubles, no. But good and bad times do not travel along an uninterrupted linear line.

I have a feeling that she’s gonna “help her self”, as the saying goes, to get what she was praying for.

Funny. I literally just quoted that the other day elsewhere online…
This more than anything is what I love about Joyce. She sees misery and thinks, “Nah.”
