Bonus Comic - Another Chance

I highly doubt that, Mik. Sorry for ruining your hopes and dreams.

Not expecting it to happen. It'd totally destroy the mood of the scene. Just sayin' it's something that wouldn't be totally implausible if the incentive wasn't totally serious which it is so.... yeah.

Wow Daisy is angry. Knowing her character though, I predict she will soon forgive. She isn't the type to hate someone easily.

Life lesson right there. Communication works better than manipulation. And if Augustus had learned that in "Love My Way", he probably wouldn't have decided to toy with Lucy later on.

Hmmm... after reading todays incentive, I've got to admit that I was wrong about Augustus. He didn't mean to hurt Daisy, he was trying to help her, albeit in a really harsh and manipulative way.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

I guess there is some good in him. :(

Yeah, it works better when you really suck at manipulation like he does. I mean, he does it a lot but when does he ever win in any way?

so i guess it means that augustus was misunderstood (he did say a few pages back in the canon that he wasn't going to rape her to lucy... O_O_ but then when she went he said something along the lines of "a challange" completely contradicting himself? maybe i am think to hard or maybe he would have raped lucyD: )

......
A challenge to manipulate not to rape.
He is targeting her for her strong will even though it isn't acctualy that strong, he just sucks so bad at what he loves that he had the opposite of the desired effect. The could still end up having seex if he succedes but that isn't the goal.

  • #121
  • 03 March 2011 - 08:14 PM
Yeah, it was.

My problem with your earlier statements was that you couldn't reach the conclusion that he was a good guy from the evidence that we had. At worst, there was enough to convince us that he was an evil person. At best, we had to fall back to the idea that he was neutral and / or misguided.

Why is it we always give the suspicious and plotting / manipulative guy the benefit of the doubt? Everyone's quick to say "oh, Abbey will beat up (insert name here) in a heartbeat", when the only things we've seen him do so far have been good! On the other hand, Augustus was rude and abrasive, and judging from his interactions in the past it was logical to think that he was up to no good.

:nope:

Because Abbey HAS beaten up bullies and would likely do so again. Augustus was all speculation and it's not really me giving him the benefit of the doubt since he hadn't done anything wrong aside from being honest. It's just that people like to jump on any person who seems like a bad guy and not even give him a chance.
  • #123
  • 03 March 2011 - 08:35 PM
If I saw someone getting beaten up in a hallway, I'd try to stop it. If that meant forcibly separating the two, then so be it. A good person would try to help STOP the situation, a bad person would walk past ignoring it.

Sure Augustus was being honest, but walking up to a group of people and antagonizing them (even if what you say is true) is a quality of being mean-spirited.

It seems to me like the "burden of proof" should be on the asshole-like-characters, not the ones who have been good so far.

Edit: Also, if I hadn't given him a chance, I'd have wrote him off as being bad and ignored the incentive comic.

You can't jump from mean spirited to rapist with just assumptions. Also he beat up more than just that guy who was going to beat up Tess, he also beat up Jay, who threw the ball at Tess in kickball, which was not him directly beating her up.
  • #125
  • 03 March 2011 - 09:00 PM
Well, JB, Abbey is devoted to removing all sorts of bullying in the school. Jay messing with Tess during kickball was bullying, even if it wasn't complete physical abuse. His problem is just that he's too extreme.
  • #126
  • 03 March 2011 - 09:03 PM
Yeah I know Bass, that was my point towards star. That Abbey doesn't just defend people in the hallways, he takes matters into his own hands by going to the extreme.
  • #127
  • 03 March 2011 - 09:11 PM
I don't think this makes him a bad person.

Besides, it's not relevant! We're talking about Augustus - every indication so far has been that he's an asshole. Can you give me a reason that we should assume he was good, BEFORE we got the incentive?

  • #129
  • 03 March 2011 - 09:43 PM
I'm saying you shouldn't assume he's such a terrible person, not that he's a paragon of humanity. Boo hoo that he told Tess she did bad things and that he informed Abbey he was acting like his father. Everyone just assumed rape when they could just have easily assumed he wouldn't have gone that far. People just want to have a villain or some shit I don't know. Moral of the story is, he has not done enough to be pronounced bad before the incentive.

@RedJack
Considering we're not guessing what will happen in the incentive, you lost your own game.

Yeah. He's a douche.

Daisy also assumed that, in canon. And we knew that before the incentive.

Readers' opinions of Augustus also get coloured by other characters' opinions of Augustus. For example, both Tess and Abbey are suspicious of Augustus, for different reasons.

In fairness to Augustus, Lucy was just going on what she heard about the incident from Daisy.

We don't know that. He says he wasn't going rape her, but if you had attempted rape, were foiled, but nobody called the brass, would you say "Yeah, I was totally gonna rape her!" when asked? I wouldn't.

Accuse: To charge with fault or offense: Blame

This means that I never said that Lucy was there to witness it but gathering from what she knew, she Accused Augustus so..

Seriously, Junior Boomer, if you want to know what I initially thought when the incentive began, you have only to reread my post here. I don't think it's really that far removed from what you think of Augustus.

It's an alternate reality, as in it would happen if Abbey did not intervene. Just like how Another Path was what would have happened if Paulo banged Lucy.
  • #145
  • 03 March 2011 - 10:15 PM
Actually, we don't know that that's what would have happened if Paulo and Lucy had done the nasty - it IS Paulo's daydream, after all. Therefore, he was just having fun in his head, no pun intended. It's possible that's would have happened, but it was still a daydream.

It's okay, though I'm pretty sure it's mentioned in some of the author's commentaries which you could have read. Still though, what we've seen so far indicates him not wanting to rape Daisy.
