Augustus has a point, did she think they'd just forget about him? She seems kind of caught off guard, here. I guess it's neat to see that despite the facade she puts up, Lucy is still pretty emotional and impulsive and didn't really have a plan when she did this.
I'm a bit bored but I feel like I shouldn't be
>>99516792I dunno man, how many pages long is this chapter? The pacing is fucking glacial right now, I don't think anything that climactic is going to happen, especially the Mike thing since last we saw him he was with Paulo, and since he's a background character he doesn't really show up unless the chapter is explicitly about him.
See what I thought would be neat for the inevitable confrontation with Alej, is that Alej goes after Lucy and Toby goes after Mike while they're both out of their houses, and each of them succeed in fighting off their attacker but then they're like "wait, weren't there two of you?" and then they try to find each other because Lucy thinks Toby is going to kill Mike and Mike thinks the same of Alej and Lucy. And then they find each other and start to reconcile. I just want both of them to have a scene where they kick someone's ass. Mike doesn't get to show off his skills often enough.
