Amaya is playing the long con. She wants the Korat cock but knows that if she, a lifelong voicelet flatty tries to go for him when his confidence is too high she'll be given the forehead kiss and sent on her way. The benefit of being a mutician movie clerk is that you perfectly blend into the background in spite of being a named character. She's in the corner of every panel, biding her time, waiting for Mike to be at his lowest, then she'll sliiiide in from the right with a bucket of caramel popcorn, and understanding smile, and a mouth with Dyson levels of cock suction. She'll lead him into her dad's cinema late at night, use her employee keys to let themselves in after closing, throw on a dubbed anime movie and then suck that sad little Korats balls so dry he forgets his own name, she'll blow any memory or Lucy or Sandy clean out of his mind, Mike won't be able to hear the movie over the near jet engine sound of Amaya sucking his soul out from his dick. When she's done Mike will have UOAHd so loud he'll have lost his voice and when the credits are rolling the only thing either of them will be hearing is the cute yet forceful panting from Amaya as she pushes mike onto the sticky cinema floor and bites his neck, pins his arms above his head and mounts his fat blue grey dick. Any resistance will be met with a mute fury as she subjugates Mike and makes him her creamy little cum kitty. Mike will wander home afterwards, the smell of amayas sweat, saliva and pussy thick on his fur and scarf. He will have been so enraptured and dominated that he will have left his phone behind. Amaya will send Sandy a picture of her face smiling whilst she dribbles cum into her palm, the message under it will read "You lose. The quiet kitty gets the cream." Before she throws the phone into the trash and begins planning their 2nd date to the drive in theatre where she'll try to make the car extra hot on the way there so she can lick the sweat off mikes face whilst she fucks him

Taeshi has stated on stream that Augustus is a pathetic weakling that went through life avoiding fights. Meanwhile Mike does actual exercise.

I hereby apologize to that one spoileranon last thread, who I doubted. You were a real one all along.

Angry Mike sure likes to slam heads. Not a bad finishing move. And speaking of head, Lucy's cranium to body ratio is real bad there, wow.

Anyway, satisfying as it might be to watch Augustus metaphorically eat dirt, it's a bit disappointing that Taeshi resurrected the whole Sperg Mike conceit. Sure it took a lot of button stabbing to get here, but it's still retreading well worn ground and a pretty cheap way to destroy Mike's reputation. And we all know how this will go:
>the red haze fades or Lucy/David kicks Mike's ass
>turbo guilty Mike
>either gives up his place at the table out of shame or it's taken from him
>sad alone Mike while everyone else in the know hates him
It wouldn't even be that bothersome if this event became the catalyst for character development, but it's safe to say that won't happen. This will just be another reason for Mike to beat himself up.
>>
>>150606398
Watch him get all the misfortune in the world for this one slap. But according to the characters, when Lucy beats people up she's just "misunderstood".
I guess if he's going to lose everything, might as well burn the world and rape him in the process.

In the preview pages, no one acts as though Mike's been expelled. James opines that he still has the rest of the track team, which wouldn't happen if Mike can't attend practice.

James doesn't know about the abuse because of Mike's earlier contrived microspergout. David is, of course, terrible enough to not care at all.

I know this shit will blow in Mike Myers face tremendously in the next page, but honestly his reaction was kinda was to be expected.

Dude knows Mike is a spergy teen, he knows he has a bunch of shit bottled up, he comes to bully him unprovoked, starts off being passive-agressive and then shifts to explicitly say shit once Lucy shows up... him getting punched or shoved was bound to happen.

That being said, spergy gremlin Mike is worst Mike.

How much could Augustus possibly know about Mike? His spergouts were such a non-secret that Taeshi invented some truly stupid contrivances to keep James in the dark, so it's no wonder that Augustus knew about those. But all he'd be seeing of Mike these days is running around outside with two other boys.

No, it doesn't makes rational sense.
Augustus is a creep bully.
He tried to assault Daisy.
He bullied and said horrible things to Abbey.
He tried the same with Mike and got rekt.

It only makes sense if we go from the basis that his friends are horrible friends and / or complete retards.
You don't normally get shunned by your friends if you punch your bully in the face, a bully that also tried to do shit to other two of your friends.

What I think might happen, judging by David's stupid expression on the preview page >>150606393, is that Lucy will step in and confront Mike, either physically or verbally, which is why I assume David is doing that face (saying something like 'Lucy-baby was soooo cool beating him/back there~'), with James the groupie supporting him in his adulation.

So uh, pretending for a moment that Taeshi is remotely interested in developing Mike's character instead of justifying his eternal punching bag status, what is Mike supposed to learn from the inevitable fallout? Like the kid already fucking knows spergouts are bad, he and Daisy already had a conversation about how Mike keeps flipping to extremes and needs to find a happy medium. But defying Gus fell into that category and look how hard it backfired. There's no apparent winning move here.
>>
>>150606512
Don't think so.
Augustus can't talk too much shit considering that he basically tried to assault another girl at the same school.

I think that this will end with Mike tired of all the shit and transferring schools.
His parents are divorcing, so he will be given the chance to go live with his other parent.
Drama will ensure "don't go Mike we actually love you".
Hopes he doesn't take the bait, his friends are horrible.

1. Lucy is poison. Her inaction proves without a shadow of a doubt she does indeed wish to seem him suffer while keeping her hands clean.

3. Depending on how James and Dog react, categorize them as shit or not accordingly

>>
>>150606699
Simply that, there's no winning move. Augustus already said he would harass him constantly until he gave in, he doesn't need to be close and personal to do it, he can just poison all his relationships until he changes school, and the "shoving" just today gave him ammo to put him in trouble with school staff and has two retards to back his story up and Jeanne Tight-lips will avoid having to engage at all. I'd rather Mike avoids the shunning and social death and go straight to skipping school and giving up, no one will take his side when Lucy's available

To be honest yeah, the whole thing just hinges on the universe shitting on mike again and the public giving ears to the emo creep because lucy, the track team turboslut and daivid

>I think that this will end with Mike tired of all the shit and transferring schools.
As much as I'd love to see him take that as an opportunity to give everyone a dressing down so violent that it could push daivid into willingly backflip into a woodchipper out of depression I doubt taeshi would do something like this without having some dumb parallel that lets lucy be the voice of reason over mike (and be the hero by "accepting him" despite fucking his life dead for ages now).
And even if they do get a stocholm syndrome happy ending like that theres still a nonzro chance she'd do a "hey look its a potential timeskip and mike suffers horribly" bci just for kicks

I don't know why he should feel guilty for laying out that edgefag for his outlandish demands and airing dirty laundry. Generally speaking though, he'll probably go 200% reclusive mode since we know dog and James are turning against him and James was his original incentive for being with the track bros. He'll have a misguided view that the track team is a wash as it's tainted and the other team members will inevitably turn on him to as that always seems to happen to anyone he tries to befriend.

Then he's going to get roped into that retarded double date shit when he obviously won't want to and Paulo will yell at him wondering why everyone at the table is treating him like a pariah. This will end up being another instance of Paulo ultimately proving to be a shit friend which will push Mike further into reclusion mode until he does something especially drastic.

Then either Lucy 'saves him' or they all sit around wondering how things got so bad

Because it's Mike and he just "punched" someone else out. He was already deeply ashamed of his past spergouts and despite everything that's happened since, he reverted back to that same behavior. The kid's going to feel like a monster, especially with James looking at him in horrified disgust.

All that said, I think your outline is pretty accurate. Taeshi will probably have a fun time designing Lucy-centric shenanigans at the table, if she even remembers how to do that.
>>
>>150606869
I wouldn't be surprised if he's just faking it because if Mike wanted to make him bleed he would have, and it's just to get him in trouble with school, break what's left of his relationship with James the slut, and help circulate the rumours that Mike is a violent abuser because Meme dog is there to have an audience not scared to shut up about it. Then Augustus will just stand up, undust his goth jacket and tell Lucy "you're welcome" while David drags her to the table so she's safe from evil Mike
I also expect the rumour coming to the track team and them being wiser to it, thinking James had something to do with it because he was the last person with Mike and has a story of stringing people along, and that's why he's sitting as part of the table and resenting them

That's surprising. I wonder how they'll take it when all this turns out to be part of Gus' retarded plan.
>>
>>150607050
Because the bully is on Lucy's side, same reason Paulo can be an asshole that makes fun of your dead mother who was beaten to death by your dad and everyone will call that "boyish charm"
>>
>>150607044
they are not bullies, they are bully enablers
the type of people that suspend the kid when he defends itself from his bullies.

>>150606323
And now Mike is the bad guy and will be humbled and regret his outburst.
>>
>>150607031
we have a chat?
>>
So like this pretty-boy bottom Augustus guy was going to spill some beans in front of Mike's gay lover and Mike went into Homo-rage mode and clocked him?
>>
>>150607050
Because Taeshi made sure to warp James' impression so Mike looks as terrible as possible. All he "knows" is that Mike "bullied" this "poor innocent" girl into a mental hospital, then Mike flipped out and beat up his accuser while screaming it was none of his business. Not that Lucy abused him, nor that Gus himself is a would-be rapist. No, just the implication that Mike is squarely in the wrong and only cares that Gus is bringing up past sins.

All that aside, it's MIKE. Of course he wouldn't think that Augustus was being a bully because Mike near always blames himself first. This spergout only punctuates his sadsack attitude, which will continue to dominate his thinking and deepen further.
>>
>>150607078

I can get behind the "these tards misinterpret everything".
I can't get how the people reading it comic can have dumb interpretations.

Also what is Lucy angle here?
She didn't asked Augustus to do this, be she is extremely passive about it.
She actually wanted Mike to be bullied out of the school yard to go sit inside like a little cuck?

Probably sad and angry at mike for hurting her new pet experiment and that will probably only change once augustus tells her the next part of his plan to get rid of mike which will probably cross another proverbial line in the sand but like with everything she'll be able to yell her way into a solution (but not fast enough to have the audience watch another shitload of chapters about mike suffering continously)
>>
>>150607221
Obviously he will become isolated from the table. Expect a lot of pages where he's all alone and beating himself up. While him running afoul of his ex-friends could potentially be more interesting, Taeshi appears unduly fascinated by endless repetition and non-drama.

Spill lentils, his push was that Mike was "using" James, "stringing him along" like he "did" Lucy because he's an abuser, he didn't consider it was Mike who was hurt and chasing after him because he got love bombed and then dropped for a meme with no personality. Being called a cheater or abuser is a sore spot for Mike and you can thank Paulo for that

>>
>>150607326
His only safe assumption is that Mike won't kill or seriously injure him.
>>
>>150607428
The spoilers seem to show Mike with the track team happy and James talking shit about him in the Paulo table with Lucy and David.
Paulo seems conflicted about it.

I will love if "lands in the sands" means Paulo telling them that they are horrible friends to their face, finally dropping Lucy and siding with Mike.
But that's asking too much from a manwhore.

They can't drag Mike nor force him and they are track friends first and foremost, they have done as much as they can and way more than his actual friends ever tried
>>
Mike really needs to find friends who don't want to fuck him. Almost every interpersonal problem he's ever had stems from his friends wanting to fuck him.

Mike is nowhere on the preview pages, just the track team talking amongst themselves. James just opines that Mike still has the track team, even if he doesn't like them.

What are you guys, a bunch of faggots? Of course, it's /bcb/ so it will never go Mike's way, but if this was a real situation no one would side with Augustus, but the trick is you got to own it, you can't be apologetic.
And Mike's never going to do that.

>>150607516
Mike is not allowed any wins and only exists to suffer despite being the most empathetic member of the entire cast. Nothing he does or avoids doing ends well. The universe itself fucks him over. Meanwhile everyone else can and does inflict their bullshit unimpeded, though there is a pecking order with Lucy at the very top.
>>
>>150607552
Anon, when people are saying that it's because in this specific comic Mike won't get away with it, it won't be him defending himself from a bully trying to kill his reputation, it'll be Mike attacking a poor student trying to plea for his friend with PTSD
>>
>>150607561
But she will side with the creep, nonetheless.
And it will be Mikes fault, nonetheless.
And she will use magic kung fu to beat up Mike, to the faggot amusement, even if doesn't make sense and Mike was always an action character capable of doing all sort of crazy shit.
So yeah, "she didn't want it" but she will take advantage from it and nobody will blame her for it.

This hurts Lucy more than anyone here. Why are they so inconsiderate of how much she's suffering?

Talk shit, get hit!

Anyway, this chapter this getting frustrating to read. Mike's going to be punished when Augustus was the antagonizer the whole time.

It's not going to matter that Augustus had the unreasonable ask for Mike to stay inside because muh Lucy needs all of the outdoors to herself. Nor is it going to matter that Augustus interested himself into the conversation and kept poking the bear when asked to stop. All that's going to matter is Mike acted SO OUT OF LINE. How dare he snap under the pressure from Augustus and years of abuse from Lucy.

>>150606699
The lesson Mike is supposed to learn is that his friend group is filled with toxic, self-absorbed individuals. The winning move is to use this as a way out, separate himself from all of them as quickly as possible, and never interact with any of them again outside of mandatory school work within the classroom.

But none of that is going to happen.
>>150607516
Gray cat has been crying and suffering at the hands of Final Fantasy cat and white cat for like...I don't know...5 years. Probably longer. Gray cat finally grew a spine and gave Final Fantasy cat some comeuppance.

Except it's sadly not going to matter because gray cat fell for Final Fantasy cat's bait. Getting glassed by gray cat means everything is going according to keikaku for Final Fantasy cat.

It boils down to making sure Mike knows that she hates him and using said jump as means to shut him up and guilt him into getting put of her way, enjoying the company of her old friends while insisting she wants to chase them away, screaming at her family for daring to worry about her mental health, and telling Mike that point one is all in his head because she doesn't enjoy seeing him suffer and didn't want it. Also her refusal to talk with Mike about taking Sandy back devolved into everything being about December AGAIN

Better to fall on grass than pavement. I am amazed that Mike will get away from this, because at the schools I went to, this would easily result in a suspension for the aggressor. An expulsion since this is not the first time he's done this. Doesn't matter if he was teased. Physical violence trumps pretty much any prior verbal harassment.

Augustus is grasping at whatever he can to the point of coming up with some Telenovela bullshit about Mike being an abusive husband to Lucy's wife no one believes and is pelted with stones instead. He can't use the jump because Taeshi can't handle actual consequences and it seems it's public knowledge at this point and no one cares, and he KNOWS Lucy is full of shit because she has everything in life and doesn't care for it because she's obsessed with how much she doesn't care about Mike. He's pretty much betting on Mike either bending and leaving or chimping out and ruining his reputation himself

Hell Anon, back when I was in school ten years ago now they were banning ALL physical contact between students. No handshakes, hugs, backslaps, fist bumps, schools these days are absolutely terrified of the idea that some psychotic Karen is going to come screeching into the office threatening a lawsuit.
Basically giving social bullies total free reign to do whatever they can imagine so long as it doesn't cross physical lines because as soon as any physical contact is initiated the initiator is instantly assumed to be in the wrong and punished severely.

The worst outcome is that Augustus reveals it was all according to plan and Lucy thanks him for it. Second worst is he keeps it to himself and self-congratulates, with no way to take him to task. The best outcome is Lucy gets miffed over a result he only presumed she wanted, but little would ultimately come of it.

Augustus develops an evil plan bent on ruining Mike's life to no end. Even if it endangers him or his friends.

I find this preferable simply because it does leave Lucy partly to blame. The downside is Mike's spergout is going to override any other character's sins, just like before. Another cheap Taeshi writing tactic.

>>150607869
My thing is if Taeshi wants us to think Mike is making mistakes she should do a better job of making it seem like the bad thing isn't just going to happen regardless of what he does. James fell for David so fast that it's hard to believe Mike leaving Sandy and accepting his confession would have made much of a difference. And when it comes to Mike making himself look bad, well, David already doesn't value Mike's life at all, and James was being rapidly swayed by Augustus talking. It kinda seems like he was already fucked.

When it feels like he's doomed either way, it's easier to just enjoy him putting Augustus on his ass.

>>
>>150609578
No matter what he does, Mike suffers, the people around him suffer, or both. The only "winning move" Taeshi has given to gray cat is to go off himself. Because Taeshi will never allow that to happen and insists on centering the comic upon him, then it's pretty hard to hold Mike to account. He has a character but is treated more like a plot element.

Even if he mentioned Lucy abusing him I think Augustus could have turned it around on him and still made him look bad, not like Lucy would jump in to correct the record. Not mentioning the rape shit is just author induced stupidity though

Well, at least Mike finally reacted in a normal sort of way. Too bad the action is so cringe and Taeshi's lack of art-skills makes this hilarious because its so abundantly clear she is shit at drawing.

Seriously tho? No scratching, no punching or kicking? Just grabbing his face and throwing him to the ground?

You know what would've been much better? Mike hitting Augustus in the balls.
But I guess he did lose them when he moved into Lucy's house.

Anons still don't get it, Augustus can claim whatever he wants because Lucy is right there to not disprove it, accusing him of what he did to Daisy would need her to come forward about it and she's too fairweather to ruin the possibility of getting on with Augustus which is the only male that had her as his first option

Anyway it appears that James is going to abandon Mike and join the table along with Lucy(no clue what happens with the Augustus though) while the rest of the track team stays loyal to Mike.

What sounds most interesting?

I was thinking of something similar and I like it the most. Of course I am going to need to reread that chapter but whatever. Wonder if I should have someone notice the ship before hand or have them be completely distracted by Mike until it starts sucking them up.

Also I am going to have Mike and Sue escape at the same time and rescue the entire crew.

Actually, I was partially joking, but don't the threads without Mike kinda die off? Can't remember if the Paulo Daisy movie chapter was a good thread.

Personally, that will always bug me.

Why go back on that, devalue characters, and the character development cycling overall?

One punch, made to order, hot out of the oven. Your eyes flick to your fist, anticipating the moment it makes contact with-

Oh, god. No.

Your open palm is moments away from colliding with Augustus' mouth. You have somehow managed to *forget* to ball your hand into a fist. Your knuckles glower back at you, all of them pointed exactly away from their intended target.

LOGIC - So it's a palm strike, now. Big whoop. Mass and acceleration being the same, it will have the desired effect. Maintain course.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - And what next? Will we go to jog and stand there performing a breaststroke? Lay down to do sit-ups and start miming curls? No. You are better than this. Start over, and do it right.

REACTION TIME [Heroic: Failure] - It's no good. You only manage to slow your hand down enough for it to slap ineffectually against his mouth.

COMPOSURE [Formidable: Failure] - Fuck it. Just start screaming.

AUTHORITY - He has no choice but to listen, now. Say something that will force him to respect you.

YOU - "Shut *up*! Shut *up*! SHUT UP! SHUTTUPSHUTTUPSHUTTUPSHUTTUP"

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT (Trivial - Success) - You easily pull her into a hug, despite her struggles. The moment your arms close around her she stops, goes quiet - clearly awed by the difference in strength between her tiny girl frame and your superior physiomorphogy.

DRAMA - Or she just wants to see where you're going with this. Go on, impress her.

EMPATHY - Appeal to her, surely she can understand being abandoned by someone she loves!

RHETORIC (Challenging: Failure) - You start to talk, but all that comes out is various pleas for pity. You can't see her face, but you can feel her stiffen uncomfortably in your arms as you drip tears and snot on her shoulder. She asks what you want.

VOLITION - You don't know what you want.

She shoves you away, and begins to stalk off, muttering something about your "stupid girlfriend"

DRAMA - She's walking away! Quick, say something revelatory, some previously-unspoken truth or history that you share!

Goodness, you know what you're asking? The Gumball characters can literally manipulate reality. Darwin sneezed a neighborhood into oblivion, Gumball spawns imaginary invisible functioning weapons on a whim, Nicole created seismic shockwaves through the air by snapping her fingers, can turn into a Hulk.
I think Gumball would sarcastically roast Mike, not take any of his problems seriously, and ultimately accidentally kill the whole cast cause he and Darwin accidentally did to several characters in their universe.

I'll look forward to writing Nicole fighting the M.C.U supervillains one day, if I can.

I don't know about Sandy exclusively, but his replacement skill would definitely relate to the way he tends to fixate on people. Maybe something like "yearning".

>>150615649
I feel like the phone actually letting him talk to Sandy keeps it too grounded to become a tulpa. I'm thinking that Mike's replacement skill would give him little vignettes of what's going on in Sandy's life in the same way that Harry can tell what's going on back at the station with Esprit de Corps.

Intellect
>Reason - The ability to form new knowledge from what's known. If A then B; A, thus B - q.e.d.
>Memory - How things happened and why. If you can't learn from the past, you're doomed to repeat it.
>Rhetoric - Your ability to state your case - to use clarity and conviction as sword and shield.
>Drama - At high levels, Drama may render you insufferable – prone to hysterics and bouts of paranoia. However, with low Drama you cannot lie – or discern when others lie.
>Conceptualization - Your high-mindedness, your ability to grapple with ideas, theories, and aesthetics rather than only with sweaty people.
>Philosophy - Your capacity to understand the laws and mechanisms of the world, and apply that understanding towards discerning which possible inputs will produce the desired outputs.

Psyche
>Volition - Stand up for yourself and keep a stiff upper lip. Volition determines how well you can stand your ground, both against others and against your own knee-jerk impulses.
>Gnosis - Somethings wrong, you can feel it. Every conversation gives you deja vu. There's potential here, but you're not the one shaping it.
>Emotion - Your sensitivity and awareness of feelings, yours and others. At high levels, Emotion will make you an overwhelmed mess. However, low Emotion will leave you cold and joyless.
>Protagonism - You ARE the main character, and everyone knows it. High Protagonism will make you arrogant and self-absorbed, but low Protagonism will leave you invisible, a side character in your own life.
>Yearning - People are complex and multi-faceted, moreso than the most precious gemstone. To possess one is the highest prize, and requires you to know them completely.
>Haremesque - Determines whether you inspire interest; then interest to attraction, attraction into desire, and desire into obsession. High Haremesque may leave you with a stalker or several, but low Haremesque and you'll never be the apple of anyone's eye.

Physique
>Endurance - Flesh heals, and you can rest when you're dead. At high Endurance even a fall into rocky rapids won't keep you down.
>Determination - Pain don't hurt. Get slapped, shrug it off. Get hit, shrug it off. Be called unlovable? Shrug it off.
>Power - Force applied. There are times when all else yields to it - there's no clever comeback to being lifted by the neck, or slammed into the ground.
>Seediness - Get down with the streets. High seediness will let you do and say nasty things - drink and gamble, mock the disabled, steal candy from a baby - and cope with the consequences. At low levels though, even a sip of a mocktail might send you spinning.
>Scarf - There's something around your neck, pulling you along strange actions towards unknown ends. Destiny beckons, and with high Scarf, you have no choice but to follow.
>Panic - Fear in your gut, fire in your heart. When times get tough and things get scary, some freeze up and can't cope while others hit first and worst.

I figure canon Mike's dump stats are Philosophy and Volition, but he's way over-leveled in Protagonism and Haremesque.

In hidsight this is Augustus's business. He's the one that made the call and was the only one that saw lucy's bloody body. Heck he probably saw her jump. Wonder what was going on in his head back then since he had a poker face at the time. No way there weren't some mental scars.

They didn't know she was fucking suicidal. Anyway, if he's checking to see whether Lucy will actually try to jump, then why not camp out at the fucking entryway so he has a chance in hell of stopping her?

>>Why doesn't anyone in this drama tell their parents about it and immediately end the drama

Being a fucking retard or sociopath isn't a good fucking reason for his actions or saying "cause plot", that just means the plot is retarded. There was not even a fucking guarantee Lucy wouldn't have split her head open on jumping ir died on impact.

You cannot even defend current Augustus actions either cause he was told explicitly to tell Lucy's mom if anything is wrong. Exactly so this shit or worse does not happen again and Agustus idea of "fixing" clearly isn't even a bandaid. It will not work if you think a 30-60m break is gonna fix the fucking issue when they share classes. Especially since these are nightmares, things that occur when you SLEEP. You know, the thing Lucy also does a home and where she would be away from Mike for hours already. Especially since she never told him what they are or who is in them.

but it just blue balls you over and over and its so tiresome

Bruh, why didn' you tell us? We'd have recommended the old versions of the first three volumes. You can download them for free on the Store page. They are pencil drawn and really sweet, and it's mostly nostalgia that keeps people here.
I doubt you'd want to reread the whole thing now tho.

the fact that i only noticed how long this comic has been going on for was when i checked the comments and saw the dates going back 2010.

i did find some very nice drawn porn of Paulo being massive and well endowed and fucking destroying Rachel with a monster cock

no i did not wank to it. i was merely amused by it.

I could see the two working together.
Gnosis is knowing about it, Bifurcation is dealing with the headache it causes. May be written too close to one another, but I feel with a focus on Bifurcation, Drama, and Emotion you'd have a build that leans more into taking the dissonance in stride and perhaps causing a bit of it, where a Gnosis, Drama, and Emotion build would be more mentally taxing and maybe you could try and "set it straight" because yoi can't roll with the narrative punches.

What he did to Mike wouldn't put him in the category of friend. Before, yes, despite everything, the race shit was complete petty bullshit.

>>150620773
You have to blame Paulo tho, David is first and foremost his cock slurper, he only got into the race to shit on Mike because Paulo has the athleticism of a toddler and even he gave up on Daisy doing anything so he wanted to get him Best Value Daisy

Daisy was always a means to an end. For David, only Paulo matters.

remember the bad end BCI during the pencil days where everyone's worst traits were turned up to 11 (Lucy was starving and cutting herself, Paulo was an addict, etc)? David was genuinely hard-R nonverbal retarded. If that's the worst version of David I think we can assume Prime David has some kind of mental disability that eclipses the comic's ambient autism, which is explained by him being treated like someone they have to tolerate instead of someone they can actually tell to shape up or fuck off

>>150620931
Isn't that why he's letting James orbit him? I'm case Paulo decides his Daisy is missing sausage?

I grew up with a BPD father. So it's oddly cathartic reading the thought process of someone with that mental illness. I also like the earlier comics before they were updated. They were a nice little time capsule of the early 2000's.

No one else noticed they are trying to retcon it so it's like Mike made Lucy and pine for him and string her along just for attention by adding this subplot with the twink?

Why wouldn't Amaya throw the phone away? So that Sandy can't squeeze back in and lovebomb him into staying like she did in Eternal Flame? No no. Amaya is a smarty pants. She's SEEN what can happen if you don't cut her off. Amaya wouldn't give Sandy the chance to slide back in after waiting so long to make Mike hers. She's a devious little minx that wants to lick the ball sweat off of Mikes sack whilst she gets her asshole eaten out whilst watching Rising Of The Shield Hero in sub on her dads cinema screen after hours. She would never fall for such an obvious trap. She would declare her victory and then work on making Mike her helpless love slave, enjoying the fact that Sandy knows what's going on and is powerless to stop her.
>>
>>150623259
It's less notice but more disregard it as bullshit right away, i don't doubt Taeshi would try to retcon past chapters without actually going back to change them but doing so here to change a plot point of the last chapters and driving force for this one is too much even for her

Mate, it's just a silly comic. Taeshi is incapable of forwarding the main plot so this shit is going to go around and around for years.

I've been holding out some tiny hope that she's written and drawn all of these chapters ahead and is currently working on a new comic that'll blow our collective tits off. Same art style or similar, completely new characters, completely new concept, a focused, driven storyline and direction and she'll run down the last years worth of BCB chapters whilst spinning up that new comic and growing a fanbase for it.

She can shit out this comic at a rate of around 4-5 pages a day if she really focuses but she considers 2 hours of drawing and shading a hard days work so there's little chance of any of what I dream comic true. She's content to double down on this whilst her boring gambling addict partner blows what little cash they get.

Not something to be proud of, but is easy money if you can furry-art.

>working on a new comic that'll blow our collective tits off.
Please no more:
>pointless high school drama that loops eternally
>tools terribly disguised as characters
>inconsistent and/or nonsensical behavior
>massive retcons
>main characters with annoying personalities
>asshole characters getting to do whatever they want with no consequences

It's all I ask

Your asking for to much. This is one of the works where the fanfics are better than the actual story.

Also where did you get that image from?

True enough. I'm out-earning her patreon by a wide margin but my work days suck so much ass it's unreal. If I could trade places and make a living in my own time doodling I'd take it in a heartbeat.

I wrote a young adult fiction novel 12 years ago that's only sold 154k copies. After printing and publishing costs I barely made 20k. That's supposedly good for a first works but Taeshi out-earns that and it took me about a year to write and polish so I really can't say she sucks. She's very good and has built up her fanbase over a long time, it's admirable. I just wish she did more with it.

>New comic
Her Sonic comic was a failure and they're chumps, I don't think she can do much aside from beating her korat to death

Her sonic comic was a failure because it's already been done a million times before and nobody gives a shit about sonic anymore. If she applied herself and spent some time comic up with an actual story she could write something amazing. She's just have to stop the lipstick wearing child predators in her discord from tonguing her asshole long enough to try.

No, I think it was a failure because it just wasn't very good.

You're confusing what makes sense and what Taeshi wants/has actually portrayed in the comic i.e. a castrated loyal pet replacement.
