Hoody Bailey is incredibly adorable, I have found a new avatar.

Also Rick, I love the new style, it's very nice.

This was also my first thought. I freakin' LOVE Bailey's hoodie. So much.

And on the topic of the argument, I'm with what IceKitsune was saying. It's very nice to see an argument between the two (is this their first?) where neither side is necessarily right or wrong. You can understand where both are coming from, and because of that, there's no hard feelings (from our perspective) towards either of them and it just makes me excited for the eventual resolution.

Unless, you know, Bailey is a false romantic lead, and they break up over this. Then it'll be a sad conclusion.

...actully, about that, I'm surprised Bailey has as many fans as she does, I mean, King and Sasha(or Fox, depending on who you are) were the most poplular pairing behind Grapenut, I guess Bailey is just THAT likable :lol:

Huskeys are always adorable. Just there was not much to go on by other than that one christmas comic where we see that one cousin of Fox's commenting about his bad back. Bring her into the spot light ~ immediately hooked.

I would not at all be surprised if Sasha had been fooled by a fursuit at some point in her life.

I can just imagine Sasha walking around asking to check the teeth of man and dog alike. :lol:

Ooo, Bailey is going to find things very strange indeed dating a human and all, er..... FORMER human anyways.

I think we have a match for bestest friends ever! :D

Sasha's speaking the language only top dentists can understand. ^_^

I wonder if Rick tries saying what he writes out loud before he puts it on paper :D

I'm not sure I want to see the end of King's friendship with Fox, the end of King's relationship with Bailey, the end of King's life as Milton resident...well, the end of King's life as well.

Also: today's comic is absolutely the PERFECT ONE in terms of dialogue. :lol:

Considering the circumstances behind the lie and what he has done as King to redeem him self though his friendship with Fox I'm pretty sure he could easily patch stuff up with the two of them when/if it comes to that.

I mean its not like anyone (out side of Keene at this point and maybe Fox) is going to believe him if he told anyone anyway so I think they would be understanding about why he had to not tell him he was Joel, I'm sure his life would be fine if it got out.

Alas, poor Bino. We knew him more than we would have liked :P

also, this strip kind of makes it seem there should be another strip between it and the last. Or something to indicate time has passed other than just us figuring it out on our own.

So ummm Bailey is clearly had enough. Also what King is saying in the first Panel makes no sense at all really. They didn’t give her up because they couldn’t care for her but because were they moved wouldn’t take her.

So much to comment on, but I need that second Panel.

Bailey's punch is so hard it put a star on Bino's cap. I know it didn't, but it was still funny thinking that.

Bailey's eyes turned red ~ take warning.

Love how her teeth were drawn. :D

Wow... um, yeah. Demon dog Bailey is now a Boxer! :lol:

Yeah, King is a smart mandog to see he needs to resolve things.

Bino will forever be afraid of Bailey. I wonder how he will react to finding out she is King's girlfriend?

Is it possible to both love and fear Bailey's expression in the last panel?

That was a long time coming!!!

Bino went down!

King should take this opportunity to give him a few well deserved stomps and kicks! I think Bino deserves more of a savage beating than this!

The saddest thing is, King does care about her. He's just too involved with his own past traumas, projecting them on her, to realize he should be a loving boyfriend and not hurt her :cry:

They are both being stubborn idiots and are refusing to see it from the others perspective, hence the title 'Of Brick Walls' two strip before this.

Noticed that when King's eyes recede like that in Panel 3, it's like looking back at the old artstyle. Except the pupil is smaller, which actually makes it better in my opinion. I didn't have any problems with the shrinking eyes with tiny dots before, but this new way of doing it is already growing on me for the better.

EDIT: Totally videogame material.

I agree with this. King is only seeing this situation by the human view. Of course Bailey wants to be with her family, but King's suggestions aren't going to do any good.
