Veronica: God, Lucy’s expression in panel 8.. what a tragedy.

Not in terms of the art, it’s just a tragedy for her to try to make light of Mike being someone not worth picking, but we all know how she feels about him. It’s almost like she’s struggling to make that joke because she doesn’t want to become too vulnerable to him. Especially right now. When he’s pining for another girl.

The Anniversary Sale ends in !

mike…. is REMEMBERING his ex best friend comfort him!!! instead!! of!!! going to any of his other friends for comfort in the present!! HOW SAD IS THAT

thinking on it, lucy probably was the only one who would even bother. i’m pretty sure abbey wouldn’t care or would be awk about it, daisy would just feel bad because of her raging crush on mike, paulo would be a dick, david would be clueless………….

mike

get better friends

OR BE FRIENDS WITH SUE, SHE WOULD BE NICE
