I'm guessing that they're playing a variant of Battleships in which the boards exist in their minds and "sinking a ship" is replaced with "converting a buddha."

They win by not winning.

They don't win by not not winning!

The layout of this strip was VERY well designed to feel like a regular "Ozy and Millie". I really dug the familar panel border design and background textural linework.

And it was funny to boot. ;)

Yes, Ozy.... Make her regret the day she chose to play zen battleship with you...

At first glance, it didn't look like a guest strip to me.

The background patterns do look a lot like what David regularly does.

I wonder whether an even closer close-up in panel three would have been better? Then a sudden pull back to when Ozy converts Millie's Buddha. Or maybe that's a better set up for a cartoon.
