Veronica: I guess Lucy experienced heartbreak before so she’s totally cool letting Paulo know that it Gets Better ™

.. but I dunno, you kinda dealt with rejection in the worst ways possible so perhaps you should let paulo pout and get upset too

honestly…he’s taking this a lot better than i expected. I don’t really…have anything else to say about this, I really thought there’d be more…arguing. This is as well as it can be.

Oh thank god, the whole surge of emotion on the previous page was just that: a surge. The whole plush-tearing thing wasn’t Paulo ending his friendship with Lucy but just taking out his frustration on the plush… that he won by taking out his frustration on the test-your-strength competition. Given the way this page is treating the situation with relative light-heartedness, it seems that the two are going to be friends and Paulo is mature enough to understand that Lucy was just screaming to get her point across rather than to be a jerk.

He’s doing better then I thought considering he just tore the head off a teddy bear

I can live with this. Less arguing, though that probably has to do with the level of respect these two have for each other.

It feels a bit condescending from Lucy about how causal she’s saying they’ll say goodbyes and you’ll feel better on Monday. You just broke the guys heart Lucy!

I’m glad Paulo’s taking it okay but sheesh. She of all people shouldn’t be assuming what Paulo’s going to feel or do.

Back when it said 7 or 8 pages to go thongs seemed too easy. I have enjoyed these past chapters with Paulo and his interactions.

Lucy is kinda being annoying now. How can you say to someone you know cares so much about you that you are basically done being friends at all. Then saying “We had a good night though” also had to wait and tell him in a place where you are stuck together for awhile.
