    Wait. How did Sweetheart talk Tip into accepting her as the pack alpha? O_O

    Or has the dominance contest started just now? o_O

      Tip was in the Army, He is used to accepting positional authority.

      The age old tactic used by many commanders of the pasr.

      Start barking orders, and don’t stop to give anyone time to question them.

    It’s a fair point. Heels are not made for hunting.

      It depends on what you’re hunting, no?

      *nudge nudge – wink wink – say no more*

      actually, Tip in heels could be quite dangerous in some circumstances.

      Physically dangerous?

      We’d have to ask Dr Lee and/or Artie about that?

        I’ve known a few people who could through a good, stable, side kick in heels. And you do not want to be in front of the force of a kick concentrated in 3/8″ square heel.

      heh. heels aren’t really made for anything except what grantwhy has in mind.

        That depends on the heels. the first heeled shoes and boots were made so that they would latch onto the stirrups hanging from a saddle. Over time they changed in design to become less and less practical.

    Would Bubbles know to run if they chased her?

    Are they sure they can exhaust her even? What is her power source?

    I’m not sure what I’m seeing in the lower left of the last panel. Is Tip throwing away his shoe or something?

      I think he might be lifting up his foot to show Sweetheart the shoe.

    Looks like Tip is *very* flexible.

    I guess that helps to explain a few things…both his ability to wear women’s clothes so very well, and his ability to do so well when he gets into women’s clothes…

      You should see how easy it is for him to get out of handcuffs. 🙂

    It’s easy to forget that sweetheart is a dog In addition to being a ridiculously repressed Incredibly put upon Petty bureaucrat,Isn’t it?

    (TUNE: “Wheel In The Sky”, Journey)

    Bubbles ran off with all our files,
    Joyfully serving, as she smiles!
    Likely we’ll find her … by the copier …

    Sweetheart commands, as we pursue,
    “We will take turns, first me, then you!
    We’ll wear her down, and then we’ll drop her …”

     But my heels are too high for this hunting!
     I don’t know if she has a jug-u-lar!
     Heels are too high for this hunting …

      Nice one. I expected An Nancy Sinatra “These Heels weren’t made for Hunting” but always enjoy an 80’s classic!

    If he has strong enough calves he could run in kitten heels, but any heels combined with what look like backless sandals probably cut out any amoun of athletic maneuverability.

    It appears a combination of brown note and potential raises have caused Sweetheart’s primal instincts to come to the fore. Stalking prey, being alpha, coordinating her pack for the hunt . . . Captain Bram would be rubbing his hands and chuckling gleefully if he could see this now.

    Would taking Bubbles’s throat in Tip’s jaws do any good? She’s a drone, isn’t she?

      I think Eddurd already mentioned that ^_^

        I think plenty of folks would actually enjoy Tip’s mouth on their neck.

      She was a drone, but Doc Lee did an installation, so now an automaton or robot or what-have-you.

      He could take her by the throat if he was a strict Jugularian.

    Besides, they already have an established pack relationship from back in the werewolf storyline. Even when Tip got in a position of authority, he pretty much immediately handed the reigns over to Sweetheart.
