Huh…You know something? I’m slowly getting used to the whole ‘paulo/lucy’ pairing, but I kind of still like the ‘tessa/paulo’ pairing…
But I still love the ‘lucy/mike’ paring…I need to stop talking now.

It’s make-or-break time, girl. Time to step up to bat. You’ll never hit the ball if you don’t swing at it, after all! (And I’m not just talking in the innuendo sense!)

Tess’ tail looks terrible in the last panel. It’s all screwed up.
First panel: All I see are Sue and McCain in the dead center and David sitting next to some other guy in the upper left hand corner.
I’m going to miss Tess. She wasn’t a bad guy, by any means. The only bad thing about her was that she always lead Paulo on, but even that can be forgiven, if she stops.

wait a second. huge error here. Tess is currying a Book for PSAT. that’s PRE Student Assessment Test. As a senior, she would most definitely not be taking the Psat.
Sorry to get so critical on you as my first comment. I’m a rather detail-orentated person. otherwise great story. amazing drama system and all that other undulation that you’ve gotten for it.
