A pen that doesn’t come off
Ah, the dart board, where sexual tension is driven up to dizzying heights with thoughts of “treble top” and the mysterious “bullseye”. — COLOURS BY SAMMY BORRAS

Those darts scores have tailed off as the night wore on, but it looks like Billie still has a little bit left in the tank
I believe that that is a scoring format for Darts. You start at 301, and each set of throws subtracts from that until you reach zero.
So with 80 left, it looks like she got two twenties and won the game with a double top. That’s why they then went out smoking.
But you have to double in and double out, right?
Straight in is a relaxed form, but double out for sure.
Really wish they’d switch to metric.
Ya’ know? I always pictured Maggie as the smoker. Not Billie.
I don’t remember off-hand either of them smoking, but in this case it just looks out of character for Billie.
*hates smokers with a passion*
I think she’s one of those people who only smoke when drunk.
Yeah, I know she’s with CoS now, but I’m still disappointed in Billie for the smoking. But I’m not her mum, it’s none of my business. She’ll regret it when she’s all wrinkly like Dot Cotton though.
An occasional cigarette is probably a health benefit. Chain smoking can’t be good for you, but neither is drinking a gallon of water a day
Don’t hate smokers, hate the tobacco industry, Tarmaque.
The drunk social smoker is a pretty common animal, Pete, I don’t think one cigarette a week is going to mean I have to draw her like June Brown. But I’ll bear that in mind when I’m buying pen nibs as the wrinkles would add to my work load.
True Fact, I grew up on a tobacco farm. It has since switched to corn and beans.
At least tobacco does not have to pass through digestion before ignition.
And the type of beans, probably: soybeans. Not fit for human consumption …
Spot on. It is in fact soy beans.
Four stars for Billie’s shoot! Her aim must be perfect! The mysterious “bullseye” seems to be part of her plan for the night. She’s taking him to her room/lair… she looks drunk and beautiful. I don’t remember seeing her smoke before, but that makes her even hotter ♡. And he looks so oblivious and pure…
Isn’t everyone obsessed with chutney?
Chutney IS great.
Oh, no. He’s Billie’s Bruno.
Bruno was a huge man with a brutal attitude and no fashion sense. I see him more as Billie’s Heroditus. A potentially expendable victim which she has a crush on.
I do not get a “victim” vibe from our good Detective Constable here. Not over the long term. Perhaps a mirror universe version of Herodotus, though.
Not quite the “pen” I was thinking of. But then, I’m a Very Naughty Boy…
John commented yesterday- “It’s –possible– that since people started noticing the list of upcoming comics, I’ve started trolling the audience with them.”
Indeed. I consider myself thoroughly trolled.
Well-played, Mr. Allison!
Now I’m thinking tomorrow’s title is about his tattoo. Or maybe the CoS building.
I’m sure now it’s the building.
I’m the sort who purposely avoids reading that section of the page. I’m reasonably certain there aren’t ‘spoilers’ in the titles, but my instinct is always to avoid anything that may hint at where the story is headed.
But… doing that you lost a lot of fun imagining where the story is headed.
Not really; I can imagine quite well on my own, without the prompts of upcoming page titles .. and I still often find those page titles just as enjoyable and amusing — getting them day by day — as I might, if I’d read a list of them in advance. ^_^
I just prefer not to look ahead. Years of training myself to avoid ‘spoilers’ essentially won’t allow it.
Brian is a tattooist? No offense to the Warlock, but I’m not sure I’d entrust him with a motorized permanent ink needle.
Yes he is, and here is whee it was mentioned before: https://steeple.church/comic/beach-bum-scrimshaw/
Wait, fridge logic time, was it Brian who drew the sigils on Billie for her tete-to-tete (no pun intended) with Baphomet?
Yes, it was.
…and you should have owned up to the pun.
This information is totally unsurprising. He looks like every tattoo artist I’ve ever known.
Fair enough, but I’ve known very few tattoo artists with even partial lycanthropy.
As far as you know.
And at this time of night, the odds are that Brian is… slightly inebriated.
I gotta say I’m kind of getting to like flirty seductive Billie here.
So…. are they just gonna keep hanging out and doing random stuff or…..?
You’re typing this out loud
It’s possible he was typing it to himself.
Out loud.
SO obsessed with chutney right now.
In a town like Tredregyn, though, you have to ask yourself what is IN that chutney…
Reverend P’s ‘Seafood’ Chutney
Belial ‘n’ Friends Sinfully Spicy Chutney
Vape Escape’s Smokey Artisinal Chutney
Clovis’ Olde Thyme Chutney
Purley’s Extra Flovorr Chutney
Diners have noted the unusual textures in the Rev’s “calamari surprise”.
Billie is working her leggings from every angle and he is thinking ‘quirky’ and ‘chutney’. I fear Billie’s chances of disappointment are growing.
Nationally known actor wakes up in the CoS with a tattoo after a drunken night out.
I’m sure there will be no ramifications at all.
The term for this in the acting world is “Thursday.”
I love the situation. Billie’s inspecting Rupert like a judge at a livestock exhibition and he’s totally oblivious. He was lusting after Maggie, but she took off and it’s like his libido shut down. Dunce!
I’m figuring Billie is liable to blow his mind.
Of course this could be the start of “payback” for the magic worked. Every now and then Billie may be “ridden”by Baphomet, to the demons delight and Billies shame and embarrassment.
Doesn’t Brian have a low-key love for Billie? I would think that is not the person to have tattooing your one night stand…
Brian doesn’t strike me as the “exclusive” sort, though.
Because of the orgies?
Because of the orgies.
Brian’s feelings for Billie seem oddly fraternal to me. Anyway, he was being very open (and explicit) to Billie about his feelings towards Shelley, so at minimum, he doesn’t see things as exclusive.
Satan and exclusive monogamy are not a good fit
Good decision or bad decision? Could go either way.
