“Time Out”, page 18

All I can think about is that clip of Ralph Wiggum saying “I’m in danger” with Paulo’s Face slapped on Ralph’s. I’m not looking forward to next weeks update :x

Hero of Breath

Paulo doesn’t really know anything about his mother other than the fact that she left him (when he was a baby) and his dad so I doubt will get to much of what we don’t already know (unless his father told him something we don’t know?) I think Paulo is just exposing some trauma since the whole “nobody likes you” probably got to him esp with the mom thing... but a big part of me feels like Abbey won’t get that at all or be sympathetic and just continue being an ass 🙃

On first read, I thought Paulo was being a jerk for the mother comment, but now I realize he's saying that abbey had a mother who did love him before her passing. It seems paulo is implying that his own mother didn't. I'm hoping we finally get some backstory on Paulo's mom, whom we have never seen. Or, you know, Abbey will chokeslam him and nary an adult will help while it escalates.

abbey: i have no support me: *gestures at his foster(adoptive?) parents, mike, daisy who STILL by and large supports him, molly, his therapist, jazmine, hell even sue has sympathized with him and even basically praised him for physically assaulting paulo* neither is 100% right or wrong here but for abbey to claim he gets no love or support is kind of laughably false

Also for once I'll say Abbey shush everyone there has encouraged you to stay in the circle you just can't your head out of your butt about Paulo because none of his friends have done an even halfway decent job of explaining why you should

Abbey has alot of support from his family. Idk if Paulo has the same.

The only person Abbey lost recently was Daisy.. And that wasn't Paulos fault. He choked him out because he was jealous, not because he was being bullied.. Paulo doesn't have it easy either. Ugh to say he has no support makes me angry.

Oh yay we're gonna get more background into Paulo's momma? Maybe sharing his trauma might make him a little more relatable for Abbey.. no way that excuses his bullying but maybe it'll help Abbey start considering that everybody's got crap they have to deal with. Really hope Abbey manages to act with at least some kindness here.. though he's clearly in a heated state of mind right now

Well this is going badly.

Ohhhhh.... oh nooo...paulo..noooo

And Abbey became cellmates with his dad.
