Ahhh the old "let's have a conversation while we freefall at 125 mph" trope. Never ceases to amuse even if it is impossible.

Except that you do, if you're Cammi. And you mostly get away with it. While also achieving that 125 mph conversation.

And given that they had long enough to talk, it does look like a bit of a HALO op. Which seems gratuitous.

Just wondering who does Cammi have in mind for the third member of this hypothetical threesome.

I assumed it was supposed to be Cammi, Dom, and Zoé.

For anyone wondering if Cammi's affair with Dom was depicted, it was - in this strip. Looking back at it, I have to say, Zoe's "But for Me, It Was Tuesday" face in it makes me wonder if his affairs were a regular occurrence, or she was just trying really hard to hide her emotions. Knowing Zoe, either seems equally plausible.

That was years after they parted ways. And judging by her reaction to hearing Lavali over the phone, one way or another, she just takes it as read that Domenico is shagging his way through the world's women. Cammi is apparently just being cautious and/or deliberately annoying here by asking if there are any issues in this particular case.

I think annoying sounds more plausible. Unless she has come down with Cheshire Cat Syndrome and can't stop smiling, I don't think that's the expression one uses when being cautious with someone.

Wait... is it me, or are they skydiving naked? :-\

It kinda looks that way in panel 3, since they don't appear to be wearing anything besides their parachutes.

I don't really have an answer for the naked thing, but it certainly seems Cammi loves to tease.

Zoe appears to be wearing a bikini top in panel 2. So they are probably in swimwear. It would also appear they did not bring clothing (or a lawyer) as requested.

@Metahiax: That's the one I meant (not sure how I got the panels confused).

I dunno. It could be a bikini top, but, if so, that's some pretty thin string. If they're wearing micro-bikinis under their chute straps, then it practically amounts to the same thing. :-??
