Mike would win hes taken martial arts and has been in multiple fights he doesn't lose cause he can't beat Augustus he loses becuase he isnt trying to harm people

Fang

Dude hes already apologized like how many times does he need to confront the issue he even apologized to her face idk what you want him to confront. This feels like you hit your sibling and then its held over you for years after apologizing and trying to change (though admittedly what he did was WAY ) worse he was has and still is extremely remorseful and is still accepting the burnt bridge of a friendship

Kirk Findlay

Dammit, I really thought he was gonna finally break and admit he did, but that he's regret every moment ever since, and that you are an emotional idiot who has been making mistakes for a long time. We were right there, a moment of humility and showing you have regrets and hate what you've done..... now you do this.... nobody is gonna pity you by avoiding the question and getting aggressive.

Didn't David made it obvious he hates Mike for what he did to Lucy?

Ahhhh sheit, here we go again

It's time for an old-fashioned cat fight

Carl Johnson: Ah shit, here we go again.

Mike that is a terrible response, it makes you look even worse than you already do.

WitchDoll

Oh boy Mike, here we go 😆. Augy and Lucy, please just watch over yourselves. 🖤

WitchDoll

Yeah, I also think something is up with Lucy in this. She had enough frames to stop Augy from talking.

Will James ever forgive Mike, how will mike and his friends move on from this.

Sometimes a Badger

Mike has been the Larry Bird of bad decisions lately in the story, sinking shots from the free throw line like it’s his job or something. But still, I look at Lucy and I only see half a victim, the other half is a bipolar bully who has been pretty shitty to people in general. Ultimately this feels a little Scott Pilgrim-ish with Mike being the obviously-crappy focal point.

The transition from blue to purple to red is so neat to see

Sometimes a Badger

So many emotions swirling around. To be honest this all seems like a chain reaction of crappiness spurred on by Mike’s previous inaction and spinelessness and Lucy’s general…awfulness to be around, I guess, that makes it hard to blame either one specifically.

I think the reason why Lucy didn't really stop Gus from talking is because honestly she wanted some closure, some retribution. Her expression kind of tells me that. hmmm

Frejya

I was in a deep depression during Lucy’s mental health crisis the first time it happened. This is so cathartic 😭

Snow

also David was there

Meowtcha

It's not just Junior Drama. He lives with Lucy and her family now. This is his one golden chance to graduate highschool away from Alej's influence. To live in a house with an actual bed and get three meals a day, where he doesn't have to steal. A lot of that hinges on Lucy's mental well-being. He's only being allowed to stay currently because he's being seen as a god-send to Lucy. Mike doing the whole "break up with Sandy and now I'm gonna rebound on you Lucy" really has caused her to plummet as of late and he's over it.

sadboy

I was really rooting for Aug when he first loved into Lucy’s/started hanging out with Jordan more but now he just exists to white knight and pick on people, it’s like okaaay…

Steven Marshall

Everybody is talking about Mike, Lucy, Augustus and James, but I'm just wondering what David is thinking about all of this. He's not chiming in with a stupid remark like he usually does, it's unusual to see him actually taking something serious for a change. His face, or moreso his eyes, being deliberately omitted in this page as well as the previous one (which going by pattern recognition means that the character is deep in thought) makes me think he has his own nuanced thoughts on the matter and I'm really interested to hear from his perspective.

sadboy

Super senior Augustus inserting himself into junior drama… boy if you don’t start hanging out with people your own age 🥴

Meowtcha

"Why is this any of your business?" You know, I just happened to be there during her attempt and saved her life and now in return I have been invited to live with her family so that I can attend school, keep my grades up and potentially open the doors to a better life, and we've become best friends during that time. Idk, the Why eludes me, Michael.

Brittany

Is there a way to fix it? I cant access the new page 😭

AlisterTX

Lucy's gone from restraining Augustus to holding onto him for reassurance when she usually hates people touching her. My children are adorable.

Aesthete Noire

Oh this is great, nobody knows the connection between Augustus

Rocky Wolfknight

What do you mean?

SomeColourMage

even if Aug hadn't found Lucy bleeding out that's not the clapback he thinks it is lmao

AlisterTX

Mike only has two speeds lmao

Mordaunt-the-Wizard

I think that is what is going to happen, and it is either going to break Mike, or it will basically destroy his friendship with James (which would break Mike)
