Heather’s still (justifiably) mad.
– – – – –
I want to take a moment here to direct you all to a few things. Firstly, my friend Kathleen Jacques who does the so-much-freaking-fun comic Band vs Band has set up a Kickstarter to fund the first print edition of BvB strips. And if you’re not into books, she’s also set up a whole amazing bunch of things at various reward tiers. Stickers, handmade dolls, buttons, coloring books, and more. Read BVB, then check out the Kickstarter for some awesome stuff.
Secondly, for those using Twitter, I’m trying to get into it and I’ve embedded my feed into the left sidebar. I like to post sneak-peek previews of upcoming strips on the Selkie Facebook page, and I’ll also try to share them on my Twitter going forward, for those that prefer Twitter to Facebook.
I like the fact that Keisha is trying to smooth things over. As much as Amanda is in the wrong its nice to see her friends are still truly her friends.
Actions have consequences. I just wish the consequence of Amanda’s actions wasn’t Heather being conned by a bunch of fake friends.
Yeah, the fake-friends are twitch-inducing. 🙁
Just hate them both!
What? I was trying to help…
I still feel for Amanda here… No wonder she’s screwed up. And she is a little girl, she has little girl feelings.
I can even see why she’s mad at Heather!
… am I alone here?
It’s easy to see why she’s mad at Heather. Heather betrayed her. Several times.
She broke her promise – got adopted and did not take Amanda along.
She told Fish-face – Amanda’s greatest enemy – her deepest secret.
And now she has NEW friends, who make fun of orphans. Heather, now that she has “a mommy and a daddy”, has forgotten her roots. When it’s “orphans versus them”, Heather has now become a “them”.
That’s the problem. The MOMENT Heather got adopted she became a ‘Them’ in Amanda’s eyes. Heather went to almost self destructive lengths trying to regain Amanda’s approval, and finally decided it wasn’t worth it.
I agree with this whole heartedly.
