You just have to trust that Tina did a complete and thorough job--it is one of the main reasons she exists in the storyline so we trust her to do her job properly. Other characters in the story can't do anything right and can only be trusted to blow things up, push buttons they shouldn't, and say things better left unsaid.Catawampus wrote:I wonder when Tina had a chance to evaluate Jessie. That might have been an interesting event, if the two actually met rather than Tina just scanning Jessie in the distance as she walked by. Does Mucho Mocha serve kelp coffee?
But. . .but he's simply drawing and transcribing the real-life actions of a group of paranormals who he met while in Minneapolis, right? Right?!?zachariah wrote:Bud does not have a good sense of timing, Paul does.
I'm somewhat less trusting of Jessie. While she is apparently genuinely trying to help Atsali now, that doesn't change the fact that for a good long while she was intentionally being hurtful and bullying towards Atsali and presumably other students as well. At no point have we seen her acknowledge (even just to herself) that what she did was wrong; instead we had Krystle trying to excuse their behaviour by saying that they just did it to make getting through school easier. If Jessie really is as empathic and understanding as she seems to be, then she knew full well how much damage she was causing and yet still went ahead and did so for selfish reasons.lake_wrangler wrote:Incidentally, it's nice to see confirmation of the genuineness of Jessie's helpfulness.
So, anyone want to guess where this goes from here? Does Atsali go back and apologize, or run away and hide? If she runs and hides, does the little mermaid's mother claim the moral high ground with a big fat "See, I told you so"? and what has become of Dietzel?
