Veronica: C’mon, Sue! Paulo’s good for SOMETHING, at least! Like not keeping Lucy completely in the dark about all the drama!

god these last two pages have been So Fuckin Cute, & so nostalgic……. i loved the goofy “do you guys just follow us everywhere” bits in the early comics so im absolutely Delighted to see that again!!!! aa!!
that being said, this REALLY puts into light how……not down w/ it Lucy is….. she got even more blank and emotionless the second mike showed up. it seems like she just kind of shut down her feelings as soon as she saw him. LIKE… SHE SEEMS.. like she’s just uhhh Not Happy to be talking to them, despite the fact that she’s engaging in conversation and like. idk. giving feedback on Daisy’s life, she’s not doing it in any way that shows she’s Invested. ya feel. like this is the sort of talking people do when they’re Over It but like “ill just talk so it’s not obvious im over it” but it still comes through.
also? i love the style of Daisy’s memory/explanation, it’s So Fuckin Cute

There’s so much purity in that first panel

Watch Mike get mad at Lucy but fucking forgetting that Lucy has a blunt abrasive personality… she clearly has no interest in some of her old friends anymore and kinda for good reasons… Same thing with Abbey, Daisy kept defending one person and never looking from the perspective from the other person. “Mikey’s right Lucy! You bully him non-stop!” “Paulo did nothing wrong! Stop being mean to him!” Like????????????
