Paulo and Abbey are sort of friends edition

Shippers man, there's Dabbey shippers who still won't accept that Daisy was just using him as her store brand boyfriend, and then there's the b***hes who want to ship him with Paulo even though they're awful together. Also some people just don't like Jasmine since they have no taste.

>Daisy sucks
Pfft, he'd wish. Actually, I guess she tried but he turned her prostitute ass down before she could baby trap him.

>If Abbey had Mike's life he would've broken up with Sandy ages ago, and told Lucy to frick off way earlier.
He stayed together with Daisy only because Paulo bullied him into keeping her. He dumped her desperate ass the day after she fawned over Mike during Rachel's birthday party.

>Well, perhaps we should take her advice
What advice?

It always comes back to this meta garbage and lore crafting because there's zero actual case for tae liking MxL in the comic or the AUs, it's impossible to disprove something that requires no evidence like this theory that MxL is confirmed because Mike is Suit

She put out an AU alternative to Eternal Flame that painted their horrible friendship as a good thing and teased that they would mend fences enough to try romance again down the line, and canon-wise keeps treating their fallout as some great tragedy instead of the best outcome for both cats. Apparently she has some enthusiasm toward the ship.

Even if we include AF, is that it?
One chapter in almost fifteen years with no romance at all where they're sort of friends means she ships it, and overwrites all of the Canon chapters where Taeshi went out of her way to undermine even the most basic foundations of what you can consider a ship?
The redraw was nothing but retcons to remove positive aspects of MxL and that was like four years agp

I didn't say no one likes MxL, I'm confused why they like it, and I'm even more confused why people think taeshi likes it despite having zero shipping fuel, it seems so insane to me that a ship can persists off literally nothing
BCB tried hard not to focus on them, it just makes the most money so taeshi does the most minimal job of reminding people Mike and Lucy exist in the same world and people just eat it up, I genuinely want to understand why this is but everytime I ask I get meta analysis that is completely based off personal interpretation

>no proof Taeshi ACTUALLY likes this ship

homie do you read

How do these comments sound positive to you, especially given Mike makes a conscious and deliberate choice to be with Sandy after this, she even did the same stupid comment shit when Mike kissed Daisy, it's just her trying to hype up the moment like it matters

I'll accept there's a flaw in my argument when one is actually presented
MxL gets tons of fan art still, by far the most for a ship, Taeshi is constantly asked in streams to draw them and everytime they so much as breathe in each other's direction the fandom explodes, they were consistently in the top echelon when the discord was putting ships in tier lists, etc
The alternative idea of it only being because it's a major plot point holds no water because A: No one gave a shit when it was just Mike getting cucked finally and the main storyline of Sandy was perceived to be ending
And B: It's not the only major plot point, it's just the one people care about, now you have to explain why people would only care about Mike and Lucys storyline if they don't care about Mike and Lucy (each of their own stories separate of each other doesn't gain traction)
C: It's not the only instance of the Patreon jumping for them, it fell between EF and Double Down and only started climbing when it became clear it was another Mike and Lucy chapter
To suggest the fandom doesn't like them is just wrong

I hate how you only expose yourself as the same schizo moron who always tries and fails to have a conversation with me when I'm already halfway into it, and I know who you are because you think being verbose and posting smug faces means your insane headcanon is a valid replacement for actually backing up your argument
Go to the candybooru, filter out taeshis art and look at what ship has the most art drawn for it then have a nice day, this isn't up for debate you're just assblasted and too stupid to form a counterpoint so you do this shit
I'm wanting an actual conversation about stuff so how about next time you just don't respond since you clearly can't let go of whatever seething hatred forces you to plaster my (You)s with schizo rambling

Anon does not understand sarcasm or the tongue-in-cheek attitude Taeshi and Suitcase have towards BCB/their fanbase.

Are you autistic?

>I'll accept there's a flaw in my argument when one is actually presented
Yeah, given your past showings, that's about what I expected.

>MxL gets tons of fan art still, by far the most for a ship
Prove it. Show your work.

>they were consistently in the top echelon when the discord was putting ships in tier lists
Blatant lies/delusion. They are consistently at or near the bottom.

>No one gave a shit when it was just Mike getting cucked finally and the main storyline of Sandy was perceived to be ending
Pressing X to doubt. Even if true, that is easily explained as no one giving a shit about Mike's personal storyline compared to the seismic shift that would occur by restoring Mike x Lucy.

>It's not the only major plot point, it's just the one people care about
Correction: It is the most dramatic and therefore the one with actual narrative stakes. Everything else has proven inconsequential or could be but goes nowhere.

>it fell between EF and Double Down
The supposed massive shift turned out to be a time loop, so of course there was a fall-off.

>and only started climbing when it became clear it was another Mike and Lucy chapter
So, a chance for closure and/or Lucy getting to shit on Mike again. The latter is far, FAR more popular among the fans than Mike x Lucy.

>To suggest the fandom doesn't like them is just wrong
You are divorced from reality and there is no point in debating with you further.

Fricking apparently.

>thanks for conceding that it has the most artwork after you stupidly tried to call me out for saying that
I told you to back up the one falsifiable claim you made, lazybones.

>I'm the one posting things to backup my statements
You post bad arguments, faulty interpretations, and blatant lies that you hope no one looks at too closely. Whenever someone invalidates them by pointing out the obvious, you jump arguments. If that doesn't work, you throw a tantrum. Exactly like what you are doing right now.

>no proof Taeshi ACTUALLY likes this ship

homie do you read

Well who the frick else will she ship Lucy with?
>Paulo
Explicitly said she changed her mind about Pucy and now writes him as a snivelling crybaby unworthy of Lucy's love or friendship.
>Augustus
Repeatedly hard no-sold her on anything other than friendship.
>Liam, Larken
Removed from canon
>Abbey
Taeshi's said things that imply she was toying with this ship, but unless it's the curveball ending it's not happening.

Speaking of ships that will never be canon.

Wanna know one that will be cannon? Mike and Haley

All she said was Paulo would have to change because the old dynamic was gross, and it really really was, she said she still likes the fun parts
But I don't think Lucy has to be paired with anyone at the end, Taeshi talked a lot about Lucy needing to be alright without relying on someone else in that same excerpt you're referencing

Yeah, but it hasn't become less gross. Now Paulo goes into tearful tantrums when Lucy doesn't do what he wants.

Taeshi retconned a lot of the grossness, and deleted the grossest part in Another Path from the BCI library, so it seems like shes on her way to fixing it, all she has to do now is address how grossly submissive and pathetic Lucy was in their shipping "dynamic" and her soviet style revisionism will be complete

Lucy being grossly submissive and pathetic is kind of her base state, though. The girlbossing is apparently a thin veneer of false confidence, making it basically an evolved form of the tsundere bullshit due to insecurity.

Lucy at a basic level is a character that doesn't trust anyone else because she's nuts, and doesn't trust herself because she knows she's nuts.
So what she wants is someone to give her affection and support, even and especially when she pushes them away. If someone overcomes her being a brat, screaming, assault, etc., they've passed her test, and thus she will love them unconditionally and follow them around like an imprinted gosling.

It would take one single look from Mike for her to leave for him. Childhood nostalgia would trump any and all conditioning forever. It took so little effort and time for her to being a rabid butthole to kind of sympathetic to full-on kissing Mike.

I do wonder how Lucy would handle a broken Mike smiling sadly while he tells her she was right about everything. My guess is that she would try to act huffy to mask how she has no idea how to handle this.

Lucy will wait for him

Probably surfacing trauma from when she got raped back when she was like five years old

No, it will always be brought up.

Suitcase is massive compared to Taeshi IRL.

we literally saw basically this in Eternal Flame, though. Wouldn't this be getting repetitive?

He knew damn well that kissing Lucy was a mistake, but he still did it because he wanted to feel better. He can do it again, except this time there won't be a Sandy to distract him from his primary objective in life: making many babies with Lucy.

[...]
The initial trick is to sweet-talk her and shit-talk her friends. She'll melt even if she knows you're manipulating her, and then you start withholding bits of affection until she jumps through hoops. Make her do things like flirting/kissing back. Then play jealous, and make her feel like her friends/family don't approve of you, and she'll lean in out of contrarianism. Soon she'll only be talking to you, and you can make her do anything you want just by running a bit of the ol' hot/cold routine on her.

Wonder how much you can lean into it, she thinks the concept of asking consent is a pretty funny joke

Imagine how easy it'd be to lure Lucy into a relationship like a trap with baited love. Even when things are going well for her her first impulse is to withdraw, just start working on her with some real gaslighting and get her to really cut her friends and family off and you'd have your pretty little songbird locked up forverer.

It may have seemed like Lucy was talking to Daisy, but Lucy was really talking to herself when she said she oughta get her a rape whistle. The only reason she hasn't been groomed yet is that every groomer knows she's too easy. Too good to be true, must be a setup by the cops.

It would take one single look from Mike for her to leave for him. Childhood nostalgia would trump any and all conditioning forever. It took so little effort and time for her to being a rabid butthole to kind of sympathetic to full-on kissing Mike.

She can go without Mike if you keep her distracted for long enough. Paulo did for a while, and then Augustus did. Eventually you'll have to take her away from Mike permanently so she doesn't relapse, but she can go quite some time without being around green eyes.

She put out an AU alternative to Eternal Flame that painted their horrible friendship as a good thing and teased that they would mend fences enough to try romance again down the line, and canon-wise keeps treating their fallout as some great tragedy instead of the best outcome for both cats. Apparently she has some enthusiasm toward the ship.

Given the nature of Taeshi's hang-up, while Mike will indeed see that Lucy is--according to the narrative--the person best suited for him, Lucy's "defeat" of Sandy will be indirect. It will come in the form of Mike's choice to reject Sandy in favor of Lucy. Lucy will not even have to lift a finger, aside from maybe swooping in to console Mike when he thinks she is too good for him or some such trash.

If it was the case that Mike and Lucy just had bad things thrown at them I'd see how Taeshi might be gearing up for that kind of ending, but that really isn't the case
In fact it's almost opposite, there's a lot of the story bending over backwards to give MxL chances only for Mike's disinterest or Lucy's slattery to mess it up, Acapulco, Confron, the entire play made to bring them back together, EF where Lucy teleports in to save Mike, they all didn't help not because of outside influence, but because taeshi made a point that they're shitty together even as friends
My point is that it isn't like they had a good thing going and then Taeshi threw bad things at them, that's a very common trope
Taeshi went back and reconned that it was ever a "good thing" and has done nothing since then to show that her opinion has changed

Reminder that this comic has 3 characters with 6 different names, and a bunch of extras.

There is plenty in the way of Paulo and Daisy hooking up, but Taeshi refuses to put those pieces into play.

They don't even share values. Daisy is up for tutoring all her friends, but she doesn't with Paulo because Paulo would rather give up than try academically. How the frick is that supposed to mesh with a girl who is planning on having the next decade of her life taken up by medical training?

If Paulo was my last option I would rather risk the narrative punishment of defying Lucy and just try to get closer to Augustus

You'd almost think if Daisy got a good look and saw what a needy mess Paulo is on the inside her pussy would get drier than the Sahara and she'd give Augustus another try.

She always had a thing for Paulo, but it took a while to puberty to kick in. Daisy has been jealous as hell for years but she was more into Mike and knew damn well that there were about 10 hotter girls he would ask out before he'd even consider her.

She was primarily after Paulo, but she liked it when boys were fighting over her.

Anon does not understand sarcasm or the tongue-in-cheek attitude Taeshi and Suitcase have towards BCB/their fanbase.

Are you autistic?

[...]
Fricking apparently.

>Are you autistic?
He's commenting on a furry webcomic on Cinemaphile. What do you think?

Mike* sorry typing is hard frick these cats

The orgy ending would be the good ending, but I guess the burn-it-all-down ending would suffice.

K*zuna my beloved

Time to being the Yakuza back into BCB

Just keep up the good work, mate

>PE switches to swimming again
>Everyone is shocked when Lucy actually joins in this time instead of sitting it out
>Lucy stares right at the fourth wall and makes fun of the idea she'd have this phobia for life
I can see it happening

Maybe the aunt she lives with lives on a boat. Face your fears!

Well al can assault her underwater

She faints at the sight of water, if she actually falls in she's dead.

Lucy being in distress does powerful things to me.

Imagine telling Lucy you've got a surprise for her, blindfolding her, taking her onto a boat, and refusing to take her back to shore until she does everything you tell her to.

Is this Taeshi's art?

From her more based era

Well al can assault her underwater

It's when she is at her most relatable.

>Lucy is the most horny character
>she also insults Daisy for being boy-crazy, as if it was Daisy who was going around looking for desperate psycho sex
Lucy's kind of an intolerable b***h. At her best she's just humoring you, at her usual she's really fricking rude. Can't believe she's still hung up on how Daisy and Paulo complained about how mean she was back in Confrontation when she's only gotten worse.

Lucy has zero self awareness
>implies Daisy is a bawd for liking one boy's attention but Lucy indescriminately chases Mike/Paulo/Augustus' attention like it's oxygen and she's about to asphyxiate
>calls Jess a bawd repeatedly for banging one dude while Lucy's tries to frick every boy she knows
>shits on Tess for being a b***h when she's no better at all
>calls Sandy a "bimbo b***h" for cheating when she was constantly one argument with Mike away from fricking her backup boyfriend Paulo
there's probably more, but Lucy projects constantly and has no empathy for anyone but expects the world from everyone around her.

Daisy is a bawd
She is though
on Tess for being a b***h when she's no better at all
Lucy is a c**t, but she never really bullied anyone.
Sandy a "bimbo b***h" for cheating when she was constantly one argument with Mike away from fricking her backup boyfriend Paulo
She never pretended to be in a relationship with anyone. She would've loved to be, but she never actually dated anyone.

>how is Daisy a bawd
Wetting her panties thinking about her unwillfull kiss was pretty loose.

>mad that your bestie has banned the school rapist from touching you
fify

>Daisy gets molested by Augustus and does her best to avoid him, getting visibly uncomfortable when they meet next time
>bawd
>Lucy malds over the fact this rapist doesn't like her, follows said rapist to his home for an overnight stay and doesn't leave even when he makes it clear he's in contact with his boss who is also a rapist
>then tries to rape the boy who molested her friend when she has power over him
>not a bawd
that's kinda weird, innit?

>Is Lucy even capable of just having a normal frick without some crazy shit?
No.

What? No. Lucy gets sexually aroused by angry shouting matches, and Larken started a shouting match so she would frick him, so Mike would get jealous, start a fight, and end up bedding Lucy. Maybe Larken joined in, but it certainly wasn't rape.

Larken passes Lucy around like that.

Do you just assume someone is a rapist when you find out they had sex, or is it just BCB?

Amaya deserves an experienced boyfriend, so he should get the practice in.

Just because they hate each other, doesn't mean there's any rape involved.

Are these lost media? They all came from candybooru. The last one was cut out like that from some guy who did the BCB art meme by copy pasting random online stuff, I don't know what the original was. I suspect there's more but I'm guessing it's all lost to time.

I'm probably considered and oldgay by this board but I was young and stupid and didn't save a copy of all the media now lost. I did make a copy of candybooru later, though.
>Jasmine piss comic
>Liam post-coitus with Lucy
What thread was that? I don't remember either of those.

Yeah lol, taeshis endgame ship tho

Their love is pure and shall not be perverted by porn.

Yeah lol, taeshis endgame ship tho

That's all I got, sorry

Lucy comes across as a blatant wish fulfillment vehicle with no greater purpose.
>embodies all of the dysfunctional behaviors that Taeshi has publicly recognized as her own struggles
>gets away with or is even rewarded for them
>only ever suffers when she tries to stop being a shitty person
>exists to be fawned over or inflict suffering on others
Which is why she is such a terrible character.

I think the anon you're replying to read old BCB. In modern BCB, all the horny has been purged unless it needed to happen (like that time Paulo nearly fricked Lucy).

Lucy used to be quite horny but most of that has been cut out over the many many many years.

Sidenote, second place for dick obsession is Rachel, whose only contribution is saying "cat dicks"
Rachel, supposedly the hyper loose girl of the cast and she simply cannot compete with Lucy

Abandon all hope ye who read

If I ever decide to leave the Discord I am posting SC on my way out

Cringe tbh

This reminds me does anyone have a rundown of the Physic AU? This is what caused me to find these threads in the first place.

>Porject ROSEVILLE is an incubator for psykers
>Lucy and Mike are the most powerful latent psykers out of the batch
>Lucy is a telepath, and is subconciously putting the whammy on people to make them like her (which is why everyone was so distressed when she left, they're literally addicted to her)
>Mike has precognitive abilities, some degree of telekinesis and can enhances his body's abilities
>Psychic powers are awakened by deep emotional pain, December was engineered to activate Lucy's powers and now they're working on Mike.
>Sandy, David, Augustus along with the school staff are all working for the project as handlers or field agents
>McCain is either an agent of Project ROSEVILLE or is working against it
>Alejandro was the best of a previous generation of psykers and is embittered that he's already obsolete
>There's a clown car of Mikes coming back in time to try to fix things, but they're just making things worse
That's what I remember about it.

Thanks

Also:
>Sandy is the premier female psychic of this generation, being both powerful and stable
>Lucy is extremely powerful, but unstable
>Sandy and Lucy are engaged in a psychic struggle for domination over Mike's psychic awakening
>McCain and Abbey might be resistant to psychic powers due to autism

There was also a vague future-plot:
>At some point Lucy/Mike get wise to their lives being a big experiment
>Lucy instigates Psychic war against Project ROSEVILLE/the normals
>Mike is caught in the middle between Lucy/Rebels, and Sandy/Loyalists
>Eventually the psychic war triggers global thermonuclear armageddon
>Mike as the last surviving psyker wanders through the post-apocalyptic wastes and cyberpunk cities, trying to evade capture and piece together his fragmented memories of what happened.

I'm glad people remembered my stupid psychic ideas

Thank you for this information

Damn it, I figured out what I want the ending of Second Confrontation to be but I don't want to spoil it in case it's close to the actual ending.

I like the idea of Lucy having to bear and raise alone a child of Alejandro

Nah, this time line Lucy pushed away most of her family and friends. Got married to Augustus out of pity and has become an alcoholic.

Tries to raise her daughter properly, but abuses her in her drunk rages

Maybe the kid will taken revenge on her mother one day

Well then. After "it is forbidden" is over, you guys might see this fic idea after it

(Chapter 4 and 5 already have their first drafts

what is it about?

Oh, that's kinda neat.

I had an similar idea for another one, but there it was Mike x Sandy kitten, there wasn't any sort of falling out with his old friends group, Mike just left and never talked again.

Then when Mike passes away, his family moves to Roseville and his son goes on to meet his father's old friends and they find out how Mike saw his childhood in his adulthood.

He completely removed Lucy and Daisy out of the stories he told his son, he changed events around to remove the connection to his friends, like saying that in Acapulco he actually slip off the bridge instead of trying to save Lucy.

I don't think that's possible anymore, Lucy seems kinda too broken to be with anyone halfway normal like Augustus
their sex scene kind of gives it away

He's a little grabby!

Kinda but not really as Mike feels really bad for selling Lucy and Augustus out(not that he would ever admit it) Also Mike doesn’t treat his gang members like shit(He broke off from Alej and is now in a gang war with him)

Just a lose thing so far

Also what Mike looks like in this timeline

>you can basically rip scenes straight out of the comic to train it to try and get the personality down
Good thing they're getting their discord to transcribe the entire comic for free then, Lol

Last I checked the transcribing only went up to chapter 30ish and now it's up to chapter 80~
So it's goin

Given how wonky the comic's tone can get, I am unsure whether Mike going full anime protagonist would be portrayed as a joke to laugh off, something he can reasonably do with no questions asked, or another borderline impossible stunt like the one he pulled during the vacation arc.

I suppose it all depends on how deep he would be into whatever Taeshi considers a redemption arc.

>in canon Mike is very durable he just shrugs it off and keeps going.
It was forever ago, mind, but Taeshi did state that Mike could dance around Paulo like a butterfly yet go down like a brick if he took a direct hit. Mike is "durable" in that he has not been seriously injured enough to die.

Now, bear with me here: Taeshi does love her poetry. So I could see Mike laying on the ground and bleeding out because Alejandro nailed him with a bullet. It mirrors Lucy's krazy ketchep kersplat, thus assuring White Cat that Mike no less down for the count than she was. So when he pushes himself to his feet anyway, it tells Lucy that all that inconceivable willpower is directed at saving her. Which of course in her mind would be incredibly meaningful and give their sour relationship a much needed twist.

>Also I get the feeling this would cause the Lucystans to seethe for some reason
I think it depends on whether Mike had "proven" himself to be a worthy friend to Lucy by that point. Though the standards of Lucystans are so fricked that such a thing may not be possible. They might begrudge that he is useful to have around or that it's a start but that he should otherwise steer clear of Lucy for her sake, since he eternally owes her.

Mike "wins" the fight by incapacitating or scaring off Alejandro, or perhaps wears him down enough so that Lucy or Augustus can knock him out cold. If additional Mike trauma is desired, he kills Alejandro and wrestle with his overactive sense of empathy wigging out. Either way, Mike ends up in the hospital and Lucy feels guilty about it. This tops the will-they-won't-they tank back off so Taeshi can drag that out to her heart's content. Lucy may have to address how she has been using Augustus as a Mike surrogate now that Gray Cat is has slipped back into her good graces a smidge. Meanwhile, Augustus may have to deal with his old links to Alejandro coming to light if the law gets involved in the aftermath.

>I can see Alejandro saying some derogatory things about Lucy causing Mike to go full rage mode and kill him
Mike would probably feel guilty even if he had killed Alejandro on accident or out of necessity.

>I also wonder how the rest of the cast would react to this going down
That probably depends on the state of their friendships at that point. If we assume no appreciable deviance from the here and now:

>Paulo
Jokes that he didn't know Mike could man up but is not-so-secretly relieved that he is alright. There is an awkward moment in the hospital hallway when he runs into Lucy and asks how she is holding up. She may be vulnerable enough at the moment to open up or tries to bottle up as per usual. Later he "subtly" encourages the two to mend fences.

>Daisy
"OHHHH MIKIEEEEEEEEE!" Cue glomp hug that upsets the nurses and gets the group shooed from Mike's room. Otherwise she hangs around and consoles Paulo. Maybe she spares Lucy a look of concern. I can't think of much for her to do because right now she's stuck as a Paulo simp, but it would be nice if she made good on becoming Mike's confidant and advisor.

>Sue
Largely the inverse of Paulo. Glad that Mike is okay but mostly she focuses on Lucy's well-being. Is openly worried if they start edging back toward friendship because of her own guilt in that department.

>David
Inflicts ill-timed comedic relief.

>Lucy's family
Concerned with White Cat first and foremost. Are roundly skeptical toward Mike but tolerate him for the moment. Like Sue, they are uncomfortable with any signs of growing friendship.

>Diversity squad
Up in the air, could go any which way.

>Abbey
Genuinely happy that Mike and Lucy are alright. Brought flowers to the hospital. Augustus gets a stoic acknowledgement and he endures some of Paulo's antics before heading off.

>Track Team
That one is tough since we don't know what the situation is or how much James gives a flip now that David is the apple of his eye. I would like to think they burst in with games, presents, and such, raring to cheer Mike up and telling him he'd better get back on his feet in a hurry so they can smoke whoever they usually go up against.

In direct contrast with Lucy's overly selfish and tunnel-visioned thinking, Mike is more others-oriented. He would need to be convinced that leaving Lucy alone is insufficient, that his mere presence or even his existence causes her suffering. Ideally he would have to feel the same way toward his friends and family to really seal the deal.

Don't forget how Mike was so torn up that his post-EF relationship no longer felt good, then one Daisy pep talk later he's happily texting Sandy as if nothing had happened.

All three

He manhandled Sue just fine and Daisy was frozen helpless the whole time. Alejandro is pathetic for sure, but the reasons he lost were Lucy tricking him into opening up for a crotch shot and Mike's anime protagonist powers.

>Alejandro beats the shit out of Paulo
>Round one with Mike ends with Alejandro stomping Mike's faces in the pavement completely unaffected by Mike's shoulder tackle
>Round two ends with Mike in a headlock getting choked out despite getting two early kicks into Alejandro's face

>also daisy could beat lucy up. ez.

The only beating up Daisy can do is with her digestive tract.

ENGAGE ANTI MIKE MANEUVER 7-B

Mike needs a growth spurt right now

Mike robs everyone of there inches

Who knows, she consistently makes Mike shorter than everyone else as per her fetish for emasculating Mike

I would laugh if Taeshi decided he was finally "worth Lucy" and gave him some physically nonsensical 11th hour growth spurt. He is 17 so unless Mike is some sort of genetically augmented freak he's not gaining an inch.

>Daisy deserves a whuppin'
She deserves to have her friends correct her shitty behavior, she hasn't done anything too bad really. She's just jealous as hell for no good reason.

Haley is just a better Lucy. She's like, 10 times less b***hy than her.

You talk like she stopped cheating. She'll be treating her uterus to a Francis cum soak next time she's out on a business trip.

Remember, she's the empowered-woman-who-takes-what-she-wants character, we're supposed to be on her side!

She had her needs satisfied and didn't need Francis anymore, so she dropped him, just like she'll drop Mike the moment she doesn't need an emotional support puppet anymore.

He's the only guy left for now, but give it a week or two, she'll be back to her old hoe ways.

I'm sure it's a safety thing. Her slender body is her money maker and her college career isn't exactly taking off any time soon, so if she wants some kind of income when she hits her thirties, she can't afford the risk of getting bloated by a baby.

She wouldn't cuck Mike out of malice or baby trap him, she's just being smart and careful about her future. If she's getting herself knocked up on purpose, it'll be because she wants to leave the modeling industry and having a kid would be an easy excuse to escape her mother's meddling.
