(TUNE: “Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover”, Paul Simon)
The door was opened, and it let the flames go free!
There’s devastation just as far as you can see …
Is this a fake, or is true reality?
It’s such a … nifty way to leap in lava!
What will you do now, since the worst has all come true?
It’s not so bad, you know, I think I’ll see it through …
No thanks are needed, it’s my parting gift to you!
It’s such a … nifty way to leap in lava!
Let’s jump in the flames, James!
Right into the pit, Kit!
It’s time to ignite, Dwight!
We’ll sizzle and char!
Just dunk in your paw, brah,
Right into the lava!
The link we will break, Jake,
Right out of V.R.!
Light up that stick, Nick.
Don’t be a drip, Tip.
Think of the community, Unity,
Just listen to me.
Drop all your troubles, Bubbles.
Go off the heat chart, Sweetheart.
Don’t be so silly, Tigerlily.
Burn down that tree, Lee.
And set yourself free.
To quote Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation “There’s a certain liberty in hopeless isn’t there. ‘Cos things can’t get 101% fucked up.” Now that she’s virtually faced it, hopefully Sweetheart can be at peace with this whole “I might end the world” thing.
Go-Go Badass Sweetheart!

I rarely remark on these because I don’t often know the song well enough to hear the parody in my head, but this one made me really happy. <3
Perfect choice of tune for a perfect Skin Horse strip, Eddurd.

“Death… is your gift.”
Oh wait, wrong heroine.
Exactly what I was thinking (possibly because I only finished Series 5 last month).
Initiate volcanic rampage!
She’s going to knock over the volcano! And loiter!
Go Sweetheart! You have a breakthrough!
We’ll see if VR lava produces real life burns…
The mind makes it real!
But the helmet makes it fake.
Shhh, let the Matrix quotes be.
Never seen it.
It’s her gift to who?
And here we see the majestic Apocalypse Dog in it’s natural habitat.

Wait, she can feel pain with the hat,right?
Don’t be silly. Lava kills your nerves too fast to hurt.
I suspect we are about to see a volcano put out by Spitzing on it…
ejected via death, a classic
You can never know if you’re not wearing the hat…
Only in the leap from the volcano’s head will the pious dog prove her worth . . .
Well, bureaucratic dog in this case, but my point stands.
Pious ABOUT beurocracy
It’s the end of the world as she knows it – and she feels fine!
Eddurd that’s the song you should have parodied!
No new one this morning? Ah, well, these things happen…I’ll see it when I see it…
Hmm, six hours past the usual update time, and still no new strip. Maybe Sweetheart really did destroy the world.
Oh, this is totally Vanilla Sky. Actually, looking back, the parallels are running a bit thick.
If I had a nickel for every time a character in Skin Horse chose a painful death to escape a bad scenario I’d have two nickels.
Which isn’t much but it’s weird it happened twice.
