Have anything to say about #282: ivy #56: orphans with you? This is the place to discuss with others without having to post directly on the comic (though you're free to do both)! |

Wow, it's always nice to see Amanda happy and care free. The tent would be cool for rainy nights, but I get the feeling, from her reaction to thunder, that she will just make her way into a large building during thunderstorms from now on.
I am so glad that this section of -1 is told from Amanda's point of view. I don't think when Mennie gets back that Amanda will be there and I'm pretty sure I don't want to see her reaction after, "They don't care about me anyway! My sister, and my sister's friend, and my mom don't even give a shit..." when she says Amanda gone even though she believes Amanda agreed to wait for her. If that happens then I think maybe I'd be cool with not seeing Mennie again, because I don't think she'd be very nice to Amanda upon meeting her again after being abandoned by the care free baby (and we already know Mennie can hit when she's upset).
One thing though, what happened to The Resa? I know she has a bunch of her own problems but it seems odd she hasn't even put in a little face time (though to be fair, I guess it's possible she was around in all that time Amanda had been absolutely on her own). Even if Amanda doesn't go back to Mennie I think it would be a fun coincidence for her to bump into The Resa and update The Resa on her very effective indepence... maybe even treat The Resa to a snack so she won't worry and will know that Amanda can basically take care of herself.
Wow, a lot of typing this week... heh. *phew*

I don't think when Mennie gets back that Amanda will be there and I'm pretty sure I don't want to see her reaction [ . . . ] I don't think she'd be very nice to Amanda upon meeting her again after being abandoned by the care free baby Not that I'm gonna tell you what happens, but you'll probably be surprised exactly how NOT like this it turns out. ^___^ One thing though, what happened to The Resa? I know she has a bunch of her own problems but it seems odd she hasn't even put in a little face time This is where the format of the comic screws with a person's head, while the actual timeline is pretty different from what weeks without a character actually seem. . . . Theresa's last appearance was issue 266, which in realtime was quite a while ago but in comic time was less than a week. She helped Melanie figure out the camping stove and then had to run off to do her own thing. Then the baby got upset and alienated when Melanie needed her help to stake the tent, and she flew away and abandoned everyone for several days. Now that she's back on the building and Melanie happened to show up again, and that's where we are now. She's not missing in action or anything, so don't worry. |

That's adorable! Aw, I just want to hug Melanie. She's breaking my heart! D-:
This was also sad: "I think I like flying even more than I like Mennie." It's really interesting to see how important flying has become to Amanda, though. I like being inside her head. ^_^
