This is the first comic where Lucy’s bow is shaded! Before, it was unshaded.. but I thought it looked weird so I decided to make that colored to give Lucy more distinction and also to make it harder for me to forget drawing her ribbon in!

Another fun fact.. Khao Manees are meant to be a Thai cat.. and I read that as a custom that if you pat someone from Thailand on the head, it’s HIGHLY disrespectful since the head is meant to be the most sacred part of the body, the feet being the worst.. so I feel it’s amusing that Lucy, being a Thai cat, totally smacked Abbey for patting her on the head. I didn’t realize the coincidence until later! Seriously, Lucy hits anyone that touches her, but when I found that out, it amused me.

If I got that information wrong, feel free to correct me! And no, I wasn’t making a reference to Girly with the laser gun bit.. although after a while of finishing this comic, I realized this and thought “.. Whoa.. deja vu.. hope people don’t think I ripped off!”

No …
“Is everything fine?”
“Sure, why not?”
“You tell me!”
Makes perfect sense ^_^

actually John Wilkes Booth broke his leg getting out of the theater, thats how they caught him, dragged him to a barn, and killed him before he could face a trial

@ Rue
I did the same thing when helping someone out and I got a ex-girlfriend off of it.
It would be nice if they didn’t think you were flirting :)

You know what?

I really really like abbey. That guy is as nice as he is mature.

So of course Lucy would have to abuse him. god damn it Lucy. -_-

Ahh, but it seems like he might have a thing for Daisy. Then again he might just be his chivalrous nature. :D

I hope Abbey doesn’t end up with Daisy…I can just tell she deserves better. That being said, Abbey is slowly getting better. I like him now, more than Tess. I respect chivalrous people. So that’s all good. :)

We need more Lucy soon. And Paulo. And Sandy.

David is great, as always. :D
