Author commentary

Veronica: Now that Paulo’s off the menu, it’s time to move on!

Goodness, this implies that Augustus must be some sorta hot tamale, huh? I did not intend for that.. James/David just share the same braincell in terms of being fanatical over a theatre kid-coded edgelord. Daisy was more into being wanted than she was into being with Augustus.

Lucy is, well, mentally ill.

But he’s kinda cute! in that stray animal kinda way.

anyway happy birthday lucy

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if a time skip will happen one day in the future if they met up after college or something after some time apart, see if they learned or not

Like that Movie A Silent Voice

1. Love that movie. 2. That could work

Guess we will see in due time

I feel like the time skip, depending how this will go, could act as a or second act of the BSCB series

Where the middle and high school cast we see is act 1 of the series.

Mike’s been an asshole, but he’s still just a kid. I don’t want him actually to get hurt.

PAM

Agreed. I feel like that’s what some of us keeps forgetting here

They are still just stupid young kids trying to navigate the adult world soon.

It doesn’t mean they are irredeemable, they need a guiding hand to help put them on a path to be the best version of themselves they can be

Rachel may not be so smitten if she knew what he did to Mike. I think if the others on either table knew what August did to Mike, they would be somewhat disturbed by his actions

Except Lucy’s brothers, they might congratulate him for breaking the spirit of the guy who broke their sister.

You think he still be cool if he learned he was part of a gang that try jumping her and Mike in the past?

Or the other things he tried to do with Daisy in the past?

Rocky Wolfknight  

Comment ID #40323

Probably not. If Lucy’s Brothers found out about that, well…

…Lucy would have to make sure her bros don’t maul him to death 24/7

I hope at least one of them is concerned for Mike. I think it’d be too cruel if all of them dngaf.

Ehhh Im really not on this train tbh. Rachel has already said previously shes interested in kids as a long term goal and a cat wouldnt be able to provide that for her (as stated previously with her and paulo). I also want someone for her thats able to give her the world and matches her outlook a bit better and personality. I actually think her and David would be a good match ngl bit perhaps a bit too chaotic lol

She’s 18. Let a girl have some fun

Nev Ravenoak

I never said I was against it, I just dont want her to fall for someone and it to end in heartbreak like it did with Paulo :(

Arctic  

Comment ID #40331

She’s a self proclaimed slut, Paulo aside she’s probably got experience with one and done no feels

Fiver  

Comment ID #40332

Fertility doesn’t have to be a deal breaker if all parties are interested in adoption. Also she is just a self assured slut that likes pretty boys, which I believe he canonically falls into lol. I don’t see him reciprocating or having any interest though

I was wrong. Rachel is hilarious😭

I will say it’s really interesting how some of you feel some people can be redeemed but others can’t. I’m just assuming a lot of you are, well, children yourselves so it explains some of these very black and white takes.

“you can disapprove of how someone did something without thinking that makes them a bad person” is something that I think a few people need to learn

SomeColourMage

Yup. This comic really bucks black and white morality a lot. Even Daisy, the borderline do-no-wrong cinnamon roll, had a stint where everyone treating her as innocent or naive pushed her to be manipulated by someone because he was the only one actively listening to her and what she wanted, which in turn led her to do some really awful things. (Wounds which she’s very much mended by this point)

Specifically in regards to Mike, the easiest punching bag due to his repeated poor decision making in his relationships, most people’s sticking points seem to come from how genuine his remorse is. Because at the end of the day, a lot of the time it comes across as him looking for pity or him wanting a relationship mended, rather than simply expressing an earnest apology and leaving it to the hurt party to reach out. (See him constantly trying to reach out to Lucy when it’s extremely clear she just doesn’t want to interact with him)

You’ll be fine, Augustus. You’ll be fine.

I think Rachel is primarily joking here, *but* I’m all for any ships with my faves and Rachel and Augustus are totally up there. I’m just so happy to see Augustus get some normal social time. ;u;

Nah man, she’s juat teasing. That’s her way to be friendly. She did that to lots of other character xD.

Also, it doesn’t seem like Auggie is intrested, he’s more stressed than anything, lol.

Let him have proper friends first!
