Ouch Augustus, OUCH. Totally loving this page now.
Panel 4 in particular, Beanie Cat to the rescue? Huh, and i just noticed Augustus’ mouth in panel 6..interesting expression.
Truly this push is deep and meaningful, almost seems intentional…Food for thought.

SuitCase is funny.
As for speculation, Lucy pushing Augustus is what made him not allow her to come on the bus.
I guess AugustusxLucy isn’t going to happen.

I apologize for not being able to think of more to say or discuss on this page; I don’t find anything real suspicious about a guy shoving Lucy out of the way.

in the last panel with Augustus his hand looks wayyyyy off. Really when you get down to it, the only thing that’s changed about the style is the way Taeshi is drawing the faces. The bodies are still the same boring blobby figures.
Nothing really different about the general coloring and background, so eh. I don’t see what’s so great about this “huge style change.”

SHOBE FEST YAAAAAY!!!
Though for a moment, when Lucy got pushed, the lines on her arm almost looked like scars.
He may be looking out for Lucy though, and Lucy just wants a friend. Over all though, I’m glad Augusts didn’t smack her… I like him as a character! and without the need for Lucy as a girlfriend.

Perfect page!!! Loved it!!! Art wise any ways I feel bad for Lucy but I kinda feel as though aug is simply trying to say…. Protect her? Either way, great dialogue!!! Its good dialogue when it doesn’t sound corny, and it’s great when it is very realistic!!!! But seriously!!! Where have I seen that beanie cat before?!?!?!
Hmmm time to….. INVESTIGATE!!!! Be right back with new results that I won’t share because I am a jack ***!!!!
Found the beanie fiend… If Its who I think it is then… ****. I mean holy…. Shiiiiiiizzzzzznutbunies.

I like the new style with each new page you write, but I really suggest switching back to the old eyes, or a modified version of them. Especially for pannels like the last three. While they do make the characters look older, (which I’m assuming is one of the things you were going for), the older style brings out their emotions more.

Hmm, here is something interesting, in panel 4, when the guy bumps into Lucy, Augustus has a somewhat disgusted look on his face, perhaps he has a problem with violence, he doesn’t like having violence being done to him and possible doesn’t like it being done to others.
That would also kind of explain his face when he walks up the bus stairs.

Ouch… talk about being left in the dust.
WHO DARE PUNCH LUCY IN THE ARM?! The cat in the beanie… that’s just uncalled for.
I’m a tad bit confused between the last three panels of the previous page (4) and the first two panels of this page… not really sure why he’s giving an angry look at her… or an annoyed look, whatever it is. I mean, sure, I would be angry too if I was pushed, but I wouldn’t be that, annoyed about it. I know I’m missing something… (Been sick over the weekend and still is, not really thinking straight sometimes)
Augustus’ expression in panel 6… why is he frowning? Also in panel 4, he looks angry that someone punched Lucy in the arm. Question is, why would he care?
Poor lucy, she always has her pets… which we haven’t seen them for quite some time now. Wish I could give her a hug though… but she would probably just hit me in return.
…plus I think I’ve grown to this new style already… still looks a tad bit strange on Augustus though… I’ll get over it eventually.

Comedy: Augustus’ “Look” was loud enough for Lucy to take notice and focus all her hearing on him, which is why she didn’t notice the impatient guy who shoved her. Many of the times she’s been caught not hearing a person it’s because they didn’t bring her attention to them, because if you do she focuses. She’s lived with the partial deafness her whole life, she knows how to cope. She just needs a heads up.

Another random theory I’m going to throw out there. Lucy doesn’t want to hang out with Augustus… she’s trying to find something out about him.
Hey, anything is possible in this whack comic. (Whack as in crazy, not anything bad…) Plus, is the idea really so insane? Lucy can be stable… just not when it comes to Mike.
Then again, her face looks pretty desperate in the last panel… but her mouth is covered…

Lucy’s a good person but even good people can get better and she does need to work on some things (but who doesn’t). Augustus has his hate face on whenever someone pushes someone else. I like it…it shows that he’s a big one for respect. Bus drivers all have a hate face, haters! Over all, two thumbs high.

That was not as epic as I had hoped…but that’s probably a good thing.
I still don’t get how sour Augustus become over Lucy starting from this chapter. After all, in Pillow Talk and Call Waiting, he seemed quite eager to hang out with her.
What the hell is the significance of people being shoved around? In Panel 4, when Lucy is shoved by some *******, Augustus sees and he looks even more ****** off than before. I got the impression he followed the guy on the bus and was prepared to say something to him about it.

Poor Lucy. If only she could find a way to be a quiet kitty … oh wait, she wouldn’t be Lucy if she did that. I hate to see her throw herself at a guy like that in exchange for something to do since Michael AND Paulo are now concerned with their women.

Because most people only know Augustus to be the way he always has been. As with Mike, he was one sweet and lovable, now he isn’t. Kinda like Mike had a grey area people ignore and August has yet to create one for himself.
And further more, what happens if Lucy pulls a Paulo and hitches to the back of the bus? Hope she’s not that desperate for strange company.

he better not be protecting her from anyone, being shown any form of kindness is the last thing lucy needs right now… she needs a good beating and to feel hopeless and alone, frightened and forgotten.
don’t worry, i still hate paulo, just as much… hopefully he gets hit by augustus’ bus.

I don’t think any speculation really needs to be made here. Like at all. Augustus isn’t playing “hard to get” and he isn’t being all secretive and villainous about what he’s doing either. Dude just wants to go home and, since he’s already anti-social and doesn’t like her, doesn’t want Lucy tagging along.
Sure I might be wrong but sometimes stuff really is just as simple as it looks

Augustus is the best for saying that line, many thanks are needed so… THANK YOU AUGUSTUS!! Now that she can’t bother anyone esle maybe she can rethink and asset her life unless she finds a new character to bother… if she does then i’ll lose the slither of hope for her to becoming a better person, WAY less bitchy, WAY less desperate and etc. And I have to say I really like the new style I have to admit it makes Lucy look cute as much I don’t like her right now, but it’s odd. Sometimes the new style makes her look cute but sometimes it makes her look odd or heavy-set like in panel one, but hey it’s still new. I think it looks good on Augustus for his evil closr-up faces because his outline and eyesss turn into a dark red maroon color which just looks awesome, but it’s still too early to really say to hate it or like it since we haven’t really seen anyone esle in the style plus it’s only been 5 pages.

@Wait: Fail. Lucy usually says little and just tries not to bother anyone. Try reading the comic you’re commenting on. Thank you.
@StarSturdy: That guy looks nothing like Alejandro. You’re exaggerating how long it was ago. A lot. Chapters 12 and 41. 54 and 25 chapters ago.
@Udyr: Name one occasion Lucy has said anywhere near that many words in one, single time. She’s not a talker, but good luck.
@Dark Reader: There’s a pretty good chance that Lucy actually will let him go, for today. Maybe longer, but I’m not totally sure.
@IDog: While Augustus isn’t really the sort to pull something like that, a surprise visit by Alejandro is all it would take… Good thinking!
@Thanatos: No. Not cool.
@ANumberOfComments: My, we have some mean-spirited commentators here.
@The comic: Lucy is going to need a distraction quick to help her forget to wallow in self-loathing… Poor girl always seems to blame herself at the end of the day. Like with the sleepover. Yeah, that ship happening would have been nice. But Lucy shouldn’t hate herself for not being ready for a relationship at, what, 11!? She has justified issues with letting her guard down with others. In kindergarten, she did and it set the girl up for a lot of hurt until she finally gave up on others. She’s been hurt.
Even though it hurts inside to think of it, Mike and Paulo are the only guys she likes romantically and both taken. She’s not gotten rmantic at all with Mike, even in question, since chapter 51, Paulo since 53. If she was a jerk at heart, she’d be trying harder to broke one of the two couples up. But she doesn’t. She lets them be. In 65, she even tried to keep Paulo from touching her, enjoyable for her though it was, because he was in a relationship.
Basically, all I’m saying is to stop calling Lucy a jerk. That’s a common tsundere thing to do, moostly with love interests. She’s going to let them be taken. She’s jealous of Jasmine and bitter with Sandy, but she can leave it at that. Her two guys she likes are happy. Even though it hurts, she’s glad for that. The only one she blames at the end of the day is herself.
“Another Path” shows Lucy and Paulo are very compatible.
“Another Chance” shows Augustus truly loves Daisy and had no rape intentions for her.
Hoheh. Good day, all.

The only character that I’ve seen that were truly mean was Tess when she was with Roger , Roger, and Alejandro and his ‘dawg’ lololol . Ahem.

That may sound weird, because it appears that he is being nice to her in the earlier chapters, but he is not! He even explains himself a couple chapters back, that he isn’t nice to Lucy, he is just humoring her to make her feel like she isn’t alone. Be nice Mike, pwease?

I suddenly have no sympathy for Lucy any more. Seems to me she’s rather selfish, and ever since Mike got fed up with her crap she’s been in an increasingly entertaining spiral of madness/despair. She’s just now reached the point where she’ll cling to anyone who even acknowledges her existence.
In other words, a hyper-dramatization of the typical girl thing, in which they keep a guy around as a “spare friend” to use when their regular buddies aren’t available, much like changing out a spare tire, who she generally treats horribly, and then becomes indignant when he suddenly isn’t there anymore.
The difference here is that Lucy is getting what she deserves, an emotional slap across the face. In the real world she’d just assassinate the guy’s character and tell her friends what a jerk he is.
Wow, this was longer than I thought it’d be.

I would disagree (except the ‘yet’ part.) Lucy sometimes treats people in the wrong way. She’ll sometimes push them around or tease them too far, causing a great dislike of her. I’m not saying she does this all the time, but the it’s the majority of it Honestly, she’s not my favorite character anymore. The way she acts is so annoying and it seems like she trys to act all high and mighty. She acts like she can do whatever she wants and can get away with it. No one likes that type of person :|

I find it hilarious that Augustus refuses to take ANY of Lucy’s melodramatic Type-A Tsundere ********. He’s just about right between Mike’s worn-down intolerance and Paulo’s tendency to buckle in a stiff breeze (even though he managed to grow backbone as far as Jazz is concerned.). He’ll talk to her, yes, but he’s been clearly telling her that he’s not interested, and Lucy [obvious]doesn’t take rejection well[/obvious].

Actually that dude, in a way, was Protecting her by NOT allowing her to follow where he LIVES because
“You. Know. Who.” is out for blood because of lucy, back at that one ally?
remember? scar-face? yeah, thats what im geussing anyways,
and im 80 % sure he was protecting her. most “Villian-ish but heroic deep inside characters do.” gotta trust me on this one, i have a good feeling about this. e we

Ouch Augustus, OUCH. Totally loving this page now.
Panel 4 in particular, Beanie Cat to the rescue? Huh, and i just noticed Augustus’ mouth in panel 6..interesting expression.
Truly this push is deep and meaningful, almost seems intentional…Food for thought.

SuitCase is funny.
As for speculation, Lucy pushing Augustus is what made him not allow her to come on the bus.
I guess AugustusxLucy isn’t going to happen.

in the last panel with Augustus his hand looks wayyyyy off. Really when you get down to it, the only thing that’s changed about the style is the way Taeshi is drawing the faces. The bodies are still the same boring blobby figures.
I don’t see what’s so great about this “huge style change.”
Nothing really different about the general coloring and background, so eh.

Though for a moment, when Lucy got pushed, the lines on her arm almost looked like scars.
He may be looking out for Lucy though, and Lucy just wants a friend. Over all though, I’m glad Augusts didn’t smack her… I like him as a character! and without the need for Lucy as a girlfriend.

Its good dialogue when it doesn’t sound corny, and it’s great when it is very realistic!!!! But seriously!!! Where have I seen that beanie cat before?!?!?!

I like the new style with each new page you write, but I really suggest switching back to the old eyes, or a modified version of them. Especially for pannels like the last three. While they do make the characters look older, (which I’m assuming is one of the things you were going for), the older style brings out their emotions more.

Hmm, here is something interesting, in panel 4, when the guy bumps into Lucy, Augustus has a somewhat disgusted look on his face, perhaps he has a problem with violence, he doesn’t like having violence being done to him and possible doesn’t like it being done to others.

That would also kind of explain his face when he walks up the bus stairs.

Ouch… talk about being left in the dust.
The cat in the beanie… that’s just uncalled for.
I know I’m missing something… (Been sick over the weekend and still is, not really thinking straight sometimes)

Wish I could give her a hug though… but she would probably just hit me in return. 
WHO DARE PUNCH LUCY IN THE ARM?!
I’m a tad bit confused between the last three panels of the previous page (4) and the first two panels of this page… not really sure why he’s giving an angry look at her… or an annoyed look, whatever it is. I mean, sure, I would be angry too if I was pushed, but I wouldn’t be that, annoyed about it.
Augustus’ expression in panel 6… why is he frowning? Also in panel 4, he looks angry that someone punched Lucy in the arm. Question is, why would he care?
Poor lucy, she always has her pets… which we haven’t seen them for quite some time now.
…plus I think I’ve grown to this new style already… still looks a tad bit strange on Augustus though… I’ll get over it eventually.

Comedy: Augustus’ “Look” was loud enough for Lucy to take notice and focus all her hearing on him, which is why she didn’t notice the impatient guy who shoved her. Many of the times she’s been caught not hearing a person it’s because they didn’t bring her attention to them, because if you do she focuses. She’s lived with the partial deafness her whole life, she knows how to cope. She just needs a heads up.

Another random theory I’m going to throw out there. Lucy doesn’t want to hang out with Augustus… she’s trying to find something out about him.
Hey, anything is possible in this whack comic. (Whack as in crazy, not anything bad…) Plus, is the idea really so insane? Lucy can be stable… just not when it comes to Mike.
Then again, her face looks pretty desperate in the last panel… but her mouth is covered…

That was not as epic as I had hoped…but that’s probably a good thing.
I still don’t get how sour Augustus become over Lucy starting from this chapter. After all, in Pillow Talk and Call Waiting, he seemed quite eager to hang out with her.
What the hell is the significance of people being shoved around? In Panel 4, when Lucy is shoved by some *******, Augustus sees and he looks even more ****** off than before. I got the impression he followed the guy on the bus and was prepared to say something to him about it.

This is like one of those things where some has been pushed around too much and they get really ****** when other people do it to him or others. Next page, beanie cat is gonna get his *** kicked.

Oh Augustus you remind me so much of me. I know you didnt try to rape Daisy. You were only stealing a kiss Dx the way she did to mike but since its a guy doing it to a girl all Hell BREAKs Loose.

Poor Lucy. If only she could find a way to be a quiet kitty … oh wait, she wouldn’t be Lucy if she did that. I hate to see her throw herself at a guy like that in exchange for something to do since Michael AND Paulo are now concerned with their women.

Because most people only know Augustus to be the way he always has been. As with Mike, he was one sweet and lovable, now he isn’t. Kinda like Mike had a grey area people ignore and August has yet to create one for himself.
And further more, what happens if Lucy pulls a Paulo and hitches to the back of the bus? Hope she’s not that desperate for strange company.

he better not be protecting her from anyone, being shown any form of kindness is the last thing lucy needs right now… she needs a good beating and to feel hopeless and alone, frightened and forgotten.
don’t worry, i still hate paulo, just as much… hopefully he gets hit by augustus’ bus.

I don’t think any speculation really needs to be made here. Like at all. Augustus isn’t playing “hard to get” and he isn’t being all secretive and villainous about what he’s doing either. Dude just wants to go home and, since he’s already anti-social and doesn’t like her, doesn’t want Lucy tagging along.

Sure I might be wrong but sometimes stuff really is just as simple as it looks

Augustus is the best for saying that line, many thanks are needed so… THANK YOU AUGUSTUS!! Now that she can’t bother anyone esle maybe she can rethink and asset her life unless she finds a new character to bother… if she does then i’ll lose the slither of hope for her to becoming a better person, WAY less bitchy, WAY less desperate and etc. And I have to say I really like the new style I have to admit it makes Lucy look cute as much I don’t like her right now, but it’s odd. Sometimes the new style makes her look cute but sometimes it makes her look odd or heavy-set like in panel one, but hey it’s still new. I think it looks good on Augustus for his evil closr-up faces because his outline and eyesss turn into a dark red maroon color which just looks awesome, but it’s still too early to really say to hate it or like it since we haven’t really seen anyone esle in the style plus it’s only been 5 pages.

When the guy bumps Lucy, it looks like Augustus is ****** off at him. When she calls for him about finding her way back he has a certain expression going on. I think hes either gonna kick that guys *** on the next page, or he genuinely told Lucy to **** off

@Wait: Fail. Lucy usually says little and just tries not to bother anyone. Try reading the comic you’re commenting on. Thank you.

@StarSturdy: That guy looks nothing like Alejandro. You’re exaggerating how long it was ago. A lot. Chapters 12 and 41. 54 and 25 chapters ago.
@Udyr: Name one occasion Lucy has said anywhere near that many words in one, single time. She’s not a talker, but good luck.
@Dark Reader: There’s a pretty good chance that Lucy actually will let him go, for today. Maybe longer, but I’m not totally sure.
@IDog: While Augustus isn’t really the sort to pull something like that, a surprise visit by Alejandro is all it would take… Good thinking!
@Thanatos: No. Not cool.
@ANumberOfComments: My, we have some mean-spirited commentators here.
@The comic: Lucy is going to need a distraction quick to help her forget to wallow in self-loathing… Poor girl always seems to blame herself at the end of the day. Like with the sleepover. Yeah, that ship happening would have been nice. But Lucy shouldn’t hate herself for not being ready for a relationship at, what, 11!? She has justified issues with letting her guard down with others. In kindergarten, she did and it set the girl up for a lot of hurt until she finally gave up on others. She’s been hurt.
Even though it hurts inside to think of it, Mike and Paulo are the only guys she likes romantically and both taken. She’s not gotten rmantic at all with Mike, even in question, since chapter 51, Paulo since 53. If she was a jerk at heart, she’d be trying harder to broke one of the two couples up. But she doesn’t. She lets them be. In 65, she even tried to keep Paulo from touching her, enjoyable for her though it was, because he was in a relationship.
Basically, all I’m saying is to stop calling Lucy a jerk. That’s a common tsundere thing to do, moostly with love interests. She’s going to let them be taken. She’s jealous of Jasmine and bitter with Sandy, but she can leave it at that. Her two guys she likes are happy. Even though it hurts, she’s glad for that. The only one she blames at the end of the day is herself.
“Another Path” shows Lucy and Paulo are very compatible.
“Another Chance” shows Augustus truly loves Daisy and had no rape intentions for her.
Hoheh. Good day, all.

The only character that I’ve seen that were truly mean was Tess when she was with Roger , Roger, and Alejandro and his ‘dawg’ lololol . Ahem. But Lucy just doesnt know how to interact. is like when a boy picks on a girl because he likes her. She just didnt know what to do with her feelings.

I really wish Mike would just be nice to Lucy for once, hell it may snap her out of this rut of feeling like she has no one to turn to. That may sound weird, because it appears that he is being nice to her in the earlier chapters, but he is not! He even explains himself a couple chapters back, that he isn’t nice to Lucy, he is just humoring her to make her feel like she isn’t alone. Be nice Mike, pwease?

I suddenly have no sympathy for Lucy any more. Seems to me she’s rather selfish, and ever since Mike got fed up with her crap she’s been in an increasingly entertaining spiral of madness/despair. She’s just now reached the point where she’ll cling to anyone who even acknowledges her existence.
In other words, a hyper-dramatization of the typical girl thing, in which they keep a guy around as a “spare friend” to use when their regular buddies aren’t available, much like changing out a spare tire, who she generally treats horribly, and then becomes indignant when he suddenly isn’t there anymore.
The difference here is that Lucy is getting what she deserves, an emotional slap across the face. In the real world she’d just assassinate the guy’s character and tell her friends what a jerk he is.
Wow, this was longer than I thought it’d be.

Honestly, she’s not my favorite character anymore. The way she acts is so annoying and it seems like she trys to act all high and mighty. She acts like she can do whatever she wants and can get away with it. No one likes that type of person :|
I would disagree (except the ‘yet’ part.) Lucy sometimes treats people in the wrong way. She’ll sometimes push them around or tease them too far, causing a great dislike of her. I’m not saying she does this all the time, but the it’s the majority of it

I find it hilarious that Augustus refuses to take ANY of Lucy’s melodramatic Type-A Tsundere ********. He’s just about right between Mike’s worn-down intolerance and Paulo’s tendency to buckle in a stiff breeze (even though he managed to grow backbone as far as Jazz is concerned.). He’ll talk to her, yes, but he’s been clearly telling her that he’s not interested, and Lucy [obvious]doesn’t take rejection well[/obvious].

I just now noticed how pretty the sky is. There’s this arc of a light purple in one of the middle panels that’s artsy and wonderful. I was going to say the texture looks kind of watercoloury? But I think I just need to clean my screen.

Actually that dude, in a way, was Protecting her by NOT allowing her to follow where he LIVES because
“You. Know. Who.” is out for blood because of lucy, back at that one ally?
remember? scar-face? yeah, thats what im geussing anyways,
and im 80 % sure he was protecting her. most “Villian-ish but heroic deep inside characters do.” gotta trust me on this one, i have a good feeling about this. e we
