The Creepiest Form of Flattery, page 2

Characters: Joe Rosenthal, Joyce Brown
Location: Danny and Joe's dorm room
When I realized that this story got left out of the first Roomies! volume, I wondered if I could stick this story somewhere in during the second volume and still make sense. Heh, no, this story is pretty strongly anchored between Sal’s dumping of Danny and the end of the semester. So here we go.
Also, this page is awesome. I can actually proudly claim ownership of this. It’s a strange feeling on this website thus far.

Joe is moving his arm the wrong way to close the door, but I do like the expressions.
Does Joyce here strongly remind anyone else of Making Fiend‘s Charlotte? I’m thinking specifically of Vendetta telling her to “pretend to be dead” and Charlotte cheerfully dropping to the ground and lying there for hours.
Well, he didn’t lie…?
No, but Sal’s barely been gone a week, if that, so he is exaggerating a bit.
Yeah, hindsight’s definitely something.
I mean, except for the fact that she DID come back eventually, but, y’know, only after a lot of angst and alien invasions and angst. Did I mention the angst yet? ‘Cause it’s kind of crucial.
She didn’t so much “come back” as the IU cast happened to turn up around her.
My god… this is like foreshadowing that won’t pay off for two more years, when It’s Walkey! invades Roomies! for a while.
“Here’s how to be like Sal. First of all, run away and never ever come back.”
Well, it’s true.
What Joe’s thinking in panel 3: “That looks like a good start!”
Slam.
Okay I got a good laugh out of this. Joyce you poor creepy stalker you.
Heh, it’s funny because it’s true.
Actually, it would have been funny even if it wasn’t true, but because it is, it’s even funnier.
Nice lion king reference!
Surprisingly apt considering Sal just sort of disappeared.
As for Joyce, well… She acquires a brain eventually, right?
Ayo!
