They fuckin

ohhhhhhhhmygooood

Who?

Paulo & Lucy

Ohhh. I'm reading about the play but I forgot what chapter that was lol

Wow o. o' it.. It's true!

nooooooo lucy why did u do that XC

These poor kids. Now that we know what Lucy does after the play... it breaks my heart. The falling out with Mike, the move... She was taking on so much. She did this just to give Paulo one last hurrah, despite being in a bad place

what is even happening rn

They getting it in

Paulo and lucy??

Nope, it’s Chuck Testa.

Very relieved that we didn't see anything specific, but now seeing Lucy's dead eye stare throughout curtain call feels worse

To be fair, the dead eyes started after Mike's blow up in "December."

The fact that the dead eyes remain is pretty terrible as well. This meant nothing at all to Lucy, it was just piled onto the rest of guilt mountain, while Paulo thought they were in ~love~

Lucy? impossible...so sad

help

Peak destructive behavior from Lucy. I've always felt bad for Paulo based on this- it's very clear how much this misdirection messed him up :( And of course now Lucy feels the guilt and regret. Poor kids

Bow chicka wow wow

LMAO

This is so incredibly sad, considering the context. Certainly doesn't sound like Lucy's first time was especially enjoyable for her. Really just giving everyone what she thinks they want from her on the way out the door. Rereading curtain call after seeing this is brutal. Paulo had just broken up with Jasmine and started coming onto Lucy again out of the blue. Her glaring and then almost defeated look as he starts nervously trying to start with her again. Paulo flustered, and then smug on his way out the door when faced with Mike, just happy to one-up him again. The way she's unhappily clutching her own shoulders when Mike comes in. God it's so miserable.

:-(

Thought this might have been a retcon, but nope, also did a re-read and the reality we're getting now was heavily implied. Full context hitting like a truck.

Lucy really needs better coping mechanisms

100% agree because that is what I did and looking bad none of the sex I had with guys who constantly went after me for my body never made me feel good. It made everything worse. Took me a while at that age but for those who are still teens SEX DOESNT EQUAL LOVE AND CARE especially during a depressive episode

mein gott

Just like that.

Lucy: Fascinating! I never knew of looking for Mew under the truck in Vermilion City, thanks for the advice!

Paulo: No problem.

i get the feeling this isn't paulo and lucy, but instead it's sandy and the other guy she had was or is dating on the side.

Its definitely Paulo and Lucy during Curtain Call. Lucy is wearing the green shawl from the play

you are highly likely to be correct, but im not sure yet, will have to wait for the next page to get the answer.

This is either Paulo and Sandy, or Sandy and someone else...either way this is going to be a disastrous issue

My two brain cells are having a fight over which pair this is whilst my soul has left the building
