Icing on the cake would be for her to call him that to his face.

And she could get away with it too, with her little special impediment.
Without intending any offense, I must say Selkie, you’ve got balls of solid brass.
Go get ’em!
No no no, it’s Ovaries of steel!
Ovaries of Steel would be a great name for an all-female metal band
I concede!
Oviipositors of titanium.
TRUNCHYPOO?????
You win everything. FOREVER.
Her smile is getting…predatory
This whole thing would probably go more smoothly if she could manage to be a bit more graceful about it.
Cause Tommy’s sperm donor cares what she has to say.
It’s more of a case of “she’s not going away and she’s irritating us in ways we can’t do anything against” more than Trunchypoo listening to her. Ye old moral victory.
It’s more a case of “she recorded Tommy saying all kinds of self-incriminatory stuff *and* trying to assault Jessie, and is planning to play it back, loud, for Prof. Trunchbull and Principal Ashton”.
Except she forgot to not do things like laugh maniacally and call Tommy a fly in her spiderweb, and it’ll look really bad when *that* part is played.
Yeah… that. <_<
I trust she’s smart enough to hit the stop button before that happens 😉
just…”oh hell naw. I quit” I laughed way too hard
“Oh hell naw” …
“Trunchypoo” …
Selkie’s fantastic Giselle-bumping …
This comic has reached refreshing heights of hilarity again.
And Selkie’s determination does my twisted little heart good. You, my little Sarnothi, have Imperial Guard-issue Mars-forged ovaries of stel. Use this skill well.
*steel
Ouch.
Principal Sackville-Baggins, I don’t know if you noticed, but you just got called a coward and schooled in how to do your job by an eight-year-old.
You had an obligation to protect all your students, and you failed. This is what it earns you.
I, for one, am biting my nails.
I see so many ways this could go horribly wrong, just based on the fact that the good Dr. Trunchbull is involved.
Given how he actually knows about Sarnoth, he could use that against her, especially since he seems to believe that Sarnothi lie about stuff or something (i.e. his quote “Sarnothi ‘truth'”).
Or he could just take the more direct route and smash her recording device right there – poof, no evidence.
Even if that happens though, I hope the other kids fess up/stand up against Truck the bully to his parents. At this point everyone vouching for his role as the school menace seems to be the only thing that would finally shake his parents into the real world. I pray that that happens… if not now, then sometime in the future. (Of course, Dave, keep writing YOUR story, don’t mind me over here in the corner making random predictions… :))
(Ghat dang buggy smartphone, it jumped the screen on me so that I hit the submit button early… >:( )
(I still congratulate and encourage our fine fishy heroine for having steel ovaries, however. GOOOOOO SELKIE! Never stop trying! Even if it goes bad…)
Cleared out the first entry. 🙂
Thanks yous!! 😀
He’d have to destroy the SD card. With that, it could be put into a computer or another phone and poof, the evidence is still alive.
This is true!
And pwnd by the kid. Principal should be ashamed of himself. It’s one thing to back down from those parents, but the kid he should have protected and didn’t is there not backing down.
Now…Trunchy may get nasty. He’s already pushed Selkie’s buttons once. However she’s not shaken this time, not hurt, and has a lot more confidence from learning more about herself and coming to some decisions.
I can’t tell if Trunchbull is the type who will actually get it if the evidence is overwhelmingly there, or continue to deny even in the face of mountains of it. Very unclear, which is awesome.
No matter how it goes, good for Selkie for standing up for herself.
*Herr* Commandant.
Herr *Kommandant*. 😉
hey, at least she didn’t call him Sergeant with the way he’s been acting about not seeing anything!
“You can’t send me to the Principal’s Office, because I’m in the Principal’s Office and I refuse to go away!”
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
On an unrelated note, I realized after my Harry Potter-themed comment yesterday that Lord Voldemort’s real name is also Thomas. (Or at least definitely “Tom”, not sure if “Thomas” was actually used at any point and I don’t have my books handy.) Coincidence? Or proof that Dave is J.K. Rowling? You decide.
I think it’s time for Agent Orange (Brown) to have a LONG talk with the Trunchpoos.
Yeah, Selkie fight for your RIGHT!
If she really did have a device to record the events, hopefully she made sure not to record her own taunting n’ such…
What I like about this is that she isn’t letting either her nightmares/fears about Truck, or the bleakness of the fairy tales get her down. she’s using it as fuel to fight back.
… Given, she’s enjoying herself an *awful* lot, she does seem to be fighting for some sort of justice here. I can only think that if she wins, however, that Truck can only hate her more in the long run for actually getting him into trouble, that is, on top of his current unjustified hatred.
Dr. Trunch is a man who thinks himself superior to everyone else around him, and will do anything to maintain that image. Having a son such as Tommy is not conducive to that image, so he does what he can to quash that image as soon as it springs up. Even when faced with evidence, he will likely try to find some way around it, due to his ego being on trial. It is the way a tyrant thinks- all are beneath me, and any attack on my family is an attack on me, and if you attack me, I will destroy you.
Which only works if he’s the biggest fish in the pond. That may be Agent Brown now.
He might still try that tactic with Agent Brown. His ego is designed in such a way that he is used to people mindlessly either praising him or kowtowing to him, never standing up to him.
I still think that when presented with evidence Trunchbull will do the right thing, though I predict he’ll still act like an ass about it.
Selkie is so happy she butts Giselle right off that bench without a thought.
Such things as this can get so ugly it isn’t funny. Lately our schools have been turned into places where infractions can get you arrest and put in jail.
And the difference between jail and school is…
In jail, you have the opportunity to get an education and future employment, and rules are strictly enforced.
Aw hell naw!
That is the best teacher here now.
