Glad someone pointed this out. Even if she wasn't looking for Augustus, we have to remember that even before "December" Lucy was already avoiding the table (Example, "Fade Away" chapter when the cast throw Tess a birthday party at the school lunch table. Lucy is nowhere to be seen).

She was already distancing herself from Mike and in turn, everyone else since it's essentially a package deal and escaping to Augustus to keep herself distracted.

Now she's coming back to the same place she left off, and we're still not 100% sure what's going on in her head regarding the whole friend situation.

>>90889437

I find it hard to believe she went looking around outside (as she did for a while before "December" when she would hang out with Augustus) without any thought of him at all. She didn't think he'd be there so it was more like she was reminiscing about the one person she has a clear, un-muddied affection for.

She deeply appreciates Augustus for saving her life but expected to never see him again. Having at last returned to the place she spent the most time with Augustus she's seeking something like nostalgia.

You seem to ignore however that Augustus is known as a criminal. And that he was a rapist (even through Taeshi retconned it so that he became less rapey). There is a reason why Lucy said her friends would leave her because of him.

>>90889752
Exactly, it's the same with jokes or other kind of intentions.

Yeah, and? First off you cannot push yourself to a girl and then say 'oh wait it was just a kiss'. Nobody would believe you.

Second off, there is a reason why I said she made sure to show that wasn't the case. Because that looked very rapey.

>There's also a BCI comic showing that if he had gone through with it instead of being interrupted by Abbey he would've only kissed her and left.
Pay attention to what you are replying. I already adressed that.

>>90891778
The attempted rape came with the page. She later made clear that he was going to stay on the kiss.

So no, not a meme.

I didn't say 'this page', I said 'the page'. The page where Augustus pushed himself on Daisy.

>>90892091
Augustus must be a melanin enriched gentleman.

>>90892353
And a few pages later it gives him a line that is strongly inconsistent with an apparent rape.

I can see why Daisy and Abbey would think he's a rapist, but the comic immediately went out of its way to show that they're wrong.

>>90892744
>And a few pages later
Which was exactly my point numbnuts. Which was because as Taeshi said she thought it was too rapey.

>I can see why Daisy and Abbey would think he's a rapist,
Are you incapable of reading or pretending? It doesn't matter what you think, the point is that Augustus has a rep as a rapist.

>>90892842
>Which was exactly my point numbnuts
A few pages later is not a retcon.

The scene itself was written so that there are alternate interpretations of all of Augustus lines. Daisy was freaking out and interpreted everything in the most threatening manner possible.

>the point is that Augustus has a rep as a rapist.
Which never comes up except in that one scene with daisy 1000 pages later. She doesn't even seem that bothered by someone she thinks tried to rape her.

It, for instance, didn't come up when Lucy started hanging out with him when the idea that he was a bad guy and might do something bad to Lucy would have been a decent red herring if it wasn't actually what was intended.

Okay nobody really answer my other question lastime so I was forced to read the rest of the bullshit (that was probably what anon intended instead of actually answering the fucking question) and kept going knowing I only have to catch up 2 years worth. (The characters seem exactly the same as when I last read them .....hmmm)

Here's my reactions.

What the fuck is up with the Mike X Sandy relationship? It's so incredibly alien. Is Sandy getting fucked by disgusting old men to make ends meet? What a boring ass date with cringe meek Mike behavior. What the fuck. Is this supposed to be relatable to anybody? I guess if I pretend the super model thing is like dating a deployed military person? And her outburst was just ptsd?? Goddamn

And Lucy commited suicide ? Okay??? Fucking stupid to read. White cat , of course, gets saved for her stupid tween special snowflake shit

Abbey's backstory reminds me of Dumbing of Age for some reason. Abusive assholes everywhere

Homeless cat got statutory raped by pedophile girlfriend of some gangster. And he continuously doesn't call police due to gaslighting. Okay

Yes, and most of those old men are dogs.

>>90893453
>What the fuck is up with the Mike X Sandy relationship? It's so incredibly alien. Is Sandy getting fucked by disgusting old men to make ends meet?

No, the difference is they're spending their developing years apart and are becoming different people who aren't compatible, though Mike is still definitely trying to hold onto how things were when they were kids. His idea of a date is taking her to an arcade and trying to race her up a hill. Sandy's a fucking model who probably spends her time surrounded by other teenagers infinitely more mature than Mike is.

I doubt she's being fucked by dogs or anything, but I'm willing to bet she's met someone who lives where she does and who she's more attracted to. Her "you're so nice" line is a suggestion that there's someone else or she actually doesn't feel as strongly about him as he does her, but she still really does care about him.

>>90893509

Daisy crushes on Mike because he makes her nethers tingle. Last time I checked, wanting someone's dick isn't the same as loving someone.

>>90894073
Daisy loves Mike since the black white pages of the comic.

>>90893453
>>90893998
Oh, and Sandy's definitely immature in her own way. She's probably being worked to the bone by her mom, but she's also been a model since she was what, ten? She's used to getting what she wants and her ego is slightly inflated from her modelling. When Mike is teasing her from on the hill her reaction isn't to point out he's being immature, she yells at him to grow up. Mike's immaturity comes out as a sort of naive innocence while Sandy's just sort of explodes to the surface.

>>90888511
Will they fuck?

>>90888511
JUST FUCK ALREADY

>>90894219
I honestly expected Sandy to have turned into a really snobby, popular type girl. I was surprised she was so nice and accommodating to everyone. I guess maybe she could also have needed to develop a good public persona for networking. I think we can also assume Mike must be pretty good looking by in-universe standards for her to not be unimpressed with his appearance.

>>90894073
they've been friends for forever and she always sticks up for him and cheers him up constantly. theres more to it than just wanting his dick obviously

>>90888591
I like it. The character dynamics are so complex that it's weirdly refreshing having something given to us straight for once. Plus I think it gives this sense that Paulo's caught off guard and wearing his heart on his sleeve, as it were.

>>90893453
>And Lucy commited suicide ? Okay??? Fucking stupid to read. White cat , of course, gets saved for her stupid tween special snowflake shit
I liked that it was confirming very hard that she's been mental all along. The way she ends up pathetically writhing on the ground (although the execution isn't great here) is a rebuke for her diseased personality. In the last chapter it looked like she learned something from all this, but it's not clear now.

>Abbey's backstory reminds me of Dumbing of Age for some reason. Abusive assholes everywhere
At least there's only one in this comic and the fact that Abbey and Molly weren't beaten is a slight change from the abusive parent stereotype. I also liked how consistently maladjusted the mother's behavior was.

>Homeless cat got statutory raped by pedophile girlfriend of some gangster.
He might look like an elementary schooler in that chapter because lol bobbleheads but I think he was supposed to be 13. Not pedo-level, but still kinda fucked up, which is what the whole chapter was aiming for.

>>90890964
Been thinking this for a while, especially because the ships were apparently set in stone from the beginning (before chars like Rachel were possibly conceived) and the basic setup was conceived in Taeshi's childhood.

Honestly I'd be perfectly happy with those ships but I'm interested to see how Lucy and Mike could possibly reconcile on that level.

There's also the possibility there will be very few endgame ships with the current characters and we'll get more of a "and everyone was finally friends again!" ending.

>>90893737
That would be too discreet and subtle for a comic that went fullretard chibi to claim it's cute weebshit.

>>90891539
That reminds me, was lucy almost getting raped retconned aswell?

i hate that this is GOING despite how much theyve shat on each other to the point of one of them commiting suicide. realisticly they will never be more than friends at this point and even that is stretching it, but i bet some meme drama shit is gonna make them love eachother

The argument in the last thread made me check if I still had that webscrape of the forum that I made right before it was nuked since I'm a good citizen shitposter..

Sadly it seems like I had stored it on that harddrive I had that commitment soduku.

But I found the E-books of the first 3 books and ancillary shit from back when I was gullible enough about whenever or not the comic would go the low effort ~progressive~ pandering route complete with weeb regression of the art and nonlogical "Paulo is a gaylo" pander chapter and "Lucy 2.0 except Lebanese" Madison.

So here you go, my buyers remorse that turned me into a "PIRATE FUCKING EVERYTHING" faggot regarding shit like kickstarters and alike:

She didn't say it outright, she implied it, but she sugarcoated it immensely. She's not very bright, it came to her mind immediately but she didn't want to be rude so she said something ambiguous instead. If she had no nice-girl filter she would have said it outright. She also could have told Mike she didn't want to meet his loser friends, so yeah, she was being accommodating.

Maybe Suitfag should put his degree to use in a part time job instead of letting the mental wreck be the sole breadwinner, so her mentality, actual shred of creativity and artistic talent didn't get ran into the ground, and thus being forced to rely on gayshipping and "OMGSOCUTE" art directed at adhd tweens.

>>90896352
Right
Can we talk about how fucking pathetic the new comment system is

I get they need to promote their comic but honestly in my personal opinion it's just done worse. I used to love checking the site not only for the new updates but to read comments & reactions as well, while now I only go to 4chan for that and more often than not I read the new page from here, aka haven't been on the site in weeks

>>90896352
Maybe it's the halfassed hackshit the last few years that's the primary catalyst to the 'mean comments'

But apparently he's not the smartest at math, so logic on that level is most likely confusing.

I like this enough to read it but I don't respect it.

I didn't read what came after, as I don't like picking things up in the middle, so I went to the very beginning and binged the whole thing. The fact that I was sick as a dog helped.
I remember it was that exact page, because over the course of my reading, I became a fan of PauloxLucy, and no matter how unlikely that ship became approaching the page, I "knew" everything was going to somehow turn around.

Then I found out that whole thing was a "what if" chapter.

I'm still fucking mad.

This series is actually a reboot from ancient comics Taeshi did as a kid. She handled the re-started series kind of badly; it's like we're already supposed to know the characters and their relationships. It doesn't spend that much time with Mike and Lucy being a tsundere uguu couple before Mike goes ga-ga over Sandy and leaves Lucy behind.

I saw a thread with lucy about to jump and gave it a whirl out of curiosity. Bonus that it's mainly cartoon animals slice of life instead of furry characters must fug everything kind of deal like most online comics with cartoon animals.

Did somebody say "Abbey gets BTFO"?

>>90900839
You know, I knew that there were old kid-doodle comics she used to do, but I never factored them into the, for lack of a better word, timeline. That definitely makes the falling out feel less drastic.

Still, Mike starts visibly getting tired of Lucy's shit in chapter 42, and now in chapter 96 they're still not speaking.

>>90900839
The series she did as a kid is literally nothing like BCB, I waded through that whole fucking summary she drew.

>>90901324
That was just one arc.

>>90901353
It said it was like 6 arcs.

If you think Lucy being a magical girl battling evil clones should be part of the timeline go ahead I guess.

>>90898104
>3 years
Get on my level. 6 years for me

>>90900712
How so? I must remind you that Abbey dumped Daisy (again) and that Abbey fully expected Daisy to stand by Paulo.

>>90898435
I started at pretty much the exact same time.

Spooky.

Haven't read this in years, but I remember young me getting his heart torn out at all the bullshit everyone experiences throughout the comic, Jesus Christ.

>>90901324
But there's this weird assumption that *of course* Mike and Lucy are *supposed* to end up as lovers (from the cast themselves) when Mike is actually obsessed with Sandy from very early on and mostly just tolerated Lucy's bad behavior.

>>90901473
Because they both obviously wanted to fuck in middle school until Sandy waltzed back into Mike's field of vision.

7 years for me, though somehow i managed to stay off the ride for a good 4 years until these threads reeled me back in and i binged all the chapters i missed

we'll never truly be free

>>90901538
Yes, because everytime someone apologizes obviously they are going to get in bed.

I want furries to leave.

>>90901538
Why is Paulo full on groping Daisy? Daisy is for loves not lewds.

>>90898396
>David's dad left him as a baby
>David is the stereotypical black boy
oh, the irony

>>90901587
Jesus christ that's almost exactly what happened to me. Only it wasn't the threads, it was boredom.

i meant they both in a relation, daisy is for marriage and a succesfull career

>>90901594
hes not gropin, hes just resting his arms , like a hug

>>90901512
Mike's hung up on Sandy from chapter 15. That sounds like a good way in but nearly all of those chapters are ~5 pages long and it's kind of The Yashy Show at that point.

There's very little of Mike and Lucy being "normal" before it starts disrupting a routine it hasn't established.

>>90901659
>the fat, homely one is to fall back on for a stable relationship once the flings with the hot, crazy ones fall apart
I thought only women did that.

>>90901659
>I meant they both in a relation
And their relation is little sister-big bro. It's like when she confessed to Mike and he refused it: they had a beautiful friendship for years, why ruin it with shipping?

>>90901594
Might as well put all that chub to good use

>>90901672
That's true, but that's more about Taeshi doing a shitty job. I'm pretty sure she didn't take these comics seriously at all at first.

And Mike is awkwardly wishy washy between Sandy and Lucy for awhile after that.

>>90901659
>daisy is for marriage
Yes, the girl who is the most likely to cheat is for marriage. If you are into cucking I guess.

Yeah, when I tried to use that excuse I got slapped and that was the end of that date.

>>90901914
Have you considered that characters don't need to have a ship to be happy?

>>90901914
>paulo x rachel is good but way uncertain
I think Paulo's just not into her. He's got narrow vision on things he cares about and the fact that he hasn't noticed that she's been pining for him (until plot device/diversity hire Madison tells him so) means he got no real interest.

I'm new to this comic, how often does the creator take breaks?

>>90902070
Three pages of this a week isn't exactly strenuous. She'd do an extra page a week if her patreon was fat enough so she's not hurting for time. She doesn't have another job.

She doesn't take breaks very often. She actually follows her schedule pretty well if she isn't sick or at some con.

>That Daisy
DAMN, baby got FAT

>Paulo X Lucy is dead.

Whoa there sonny, she's currently rocking a ice queen facade as a coping mechanism against Mike as a whole, the rests occasional stupid outbursts and Paulo's untimely advances.

But that doesn't sink it as hard as Daisy "I only dated him so I didn't feel alone" X Abbey "I'm a control freak and future wifebeater" is.

Well, yeah, that's my point.

>>90902378
i think that exactly make that ship dead anon

You know, some people here are saying Mike x Lucy is dead and with really good reasons but i'd like to see a very long and painful reconciliation.
It's a better scenario than anything else

>>90902436
Thanks anon!
Does anyone know when the dating sim ad was being used? I don't exactly remember when I started reading this train wreck, but I remember that I got hooked in because of that ad. Anyone can help me?
