Me when my partner would just roast my writing

😆 Sooch is just: 😇

sem

Both of her reactions are a mood

Ran Chess Cafe

How will writers improve if you don’t break down their work with scathing accuracy? 🤣 Good job, Sooch!

noonanoonayay

At least it's in black ink. There's something about red ink that makes me feel like I've been shamed 😂😭

Barkspawn

Shit, I was a Sooch 👀

Nyssa

I hate peer reviews, I never know if I’m reviewing correctly

Daisy

Woah sooch was RUTHLESS in that review “grammar is a thing” 😂😂😂

MessusMinnow

Also good job on Josh for keeping their conversation private.

AngelShoes

Looks like Sooch has high standards. Good. Rip that paper a new one.

KermitsGirl

Peer reviews are the worst. I'd looking forward to criticism so I could improve my work and I'd get junk like "this was good, I don't have anything to say."

Nabi

Oh damn Sooch such torn her paper apart!!!

Vii Cky

I've always been such a Sooch in that department. Hahaha my friends are used to it though. I was never one for sugar coating. Hmmm I don't know how I feel about Josh and Howie's conversation. Thought Josh just acted misterious for no reason.

Mandy

"Grammar is a thing" lmaoo ouch man

Wibsi

Let the overthinking begin

AngelShoes

I feel like Josh is trying to be neutral, help Howie calm down, and not betray Sooch's trust all at the same time. It's not an easy dance, but (imho) he's doing it pretty well.

bakukuma

I think Josh was respecting Sooch's privacy. If He and Howie are going to make it work they need to communicate more. But just as well he could've not mentioned it, probably.

Vii Cky

Okay, that's quite an accurate point of view. However, didn't feel so neutral. Idk. I lik Josh either way..

Yanna Moon

Her face lmao she is so insulted

Bittie

Yeah he wanted to try to ease Howie’s nerves but at the same time he wasn’t sure if he was allowed to talk about the details of his and Sooch’s conversation

Vii Cky

Maybe, just maybe, would've been better to simply recommend more communication. Implying to know something that Howie doesn't is what makes it misterious for no reason. Or to give an honest opinion without bias?... Idk, just saying..

Bittie

That’s true! He wasn’t really trying to say “I don’t know what he said”, but rather “I don’t know what I’m allowed to say”. But yes either he could have said it in a better way lol

Shelby Thomas

Lmao I always liked a good peer review so I could work on my weak points but I also completely understand why it’s not for everyone.

Vii Cky

Btw, loving this wonderful exchange. 💜 thank you for this beautiful comic 😍

Ashley

Grammar is a thing 😂😂😂😂 Savage. Although, let’s all remember that our boy has had *0* sleep, is tired and frustrated, and is possibly more blunt and ‘over it’ than usual lol. He probably doesn’t have the energy to be polite about corrections, especially if he feels like maybe she didn’t spend much time on the paper while he’s been killing himself to do well. (Alright now that I’ve gone way too in depth with this, I’ll see myself out 😂 Loved the panels as usual!! 🥰)

Victoria

It sounded very much like a conversation between two dudes to me 😂

Bittie

Yes lol tired Sooch doesn’t pull any punches 😂

Vii Cky

Come on, Howie has never been JUST A DUDE. And Josh is vey mature... It had depth.

Tammy Johnson

God. You’re soooo good at facial expressions it’s crazy. I love that it doesn’t have to be spelled out for us what the characters are thinking.

rat sara

:) I truly love what you have created. The world, the characters, EVERYTHING. Keep up the phenomenal work! also, love the BLM thrown in there 🙂

Samantha Bowling

Your artwork continues to amaze me, keep up the good work!! Also, Sooch is ruthless 😂 love that Josh is trying to respect both Howie and Sooch.

Sam Vic

I always loved your art, but every panel I'm even more in love. Their expressions are always so ON POINT. As usual I can't wait for the next update 🥰 I really like what Josh did here, I think after their talk, Sooch was willing to open up to Howie, especially after Howie's reaction to Josh finding out about them. So Josh deciding not to tell Howie is on character for Josh and we love him for it. Howie is 100% being anxious about it lol but I'm looking foward for their next big talk aaaaaa this story, so good

Finn W

I don’t get why ppl can’t take constructive criticism 💀 Only way to get a higher grade my dude

Julia

Honestly, I would be insulted if I were sooch. He put effort into her paper so she can improve, and she just said his was good. Like, even if she doesn't like his constructive criticism, he helped her, and she did nothing in return.

Diego P

Josh is a really good fiend, Sooch is merciless

Kylee M Funk

I had to do this in my English class, but I had to do everyone's since I was the only one in that class that was in advanced writing. It was so fun ripping into the classmates I hated! I've lost my touch with writing though. It's been 6 years since I've last wrote a little story. I miss it haha

Lillie

Like I'd say if you don't do a good job reviewing someone else's work how are they gonna get better. It's not like your being an ass about it. Well you could be but i doubt that is what he was trying to do.

Kyra

Howie is going to overthink so much about how neutral Josh was and what he thinks Sooch actually said. I hope he asks him about it instead of just worrying like he does

Thingymabob

Howie is going to pull a me! Mind is about to kick into overdrive.

Megan Pawlak Arts

Uh oh. Sooch’s being hyper critical. Either that or he’s actually an English nerd who corrects every comma, misspelling, and mistyped clause. No no I’m not bitter about the past. Not at all. (I’m joking. We’ve all been there am I right?)

M Connor

Oh that was usually SO my situation! I hated it. I was honest! Very nice slice of life moment!

ty

Well Sooch found something he's good at. Can become a teacher.

TheMoonbeam

Really glad to see Josh is being supportive of Howie, without betraying Sooch' trust. Josh is a good friend. And uh... I was very much like Sooch when peer editing papers in school... 😅 And I love seeing that Sooch is continuing to excel at writing. I'm thinking English teacher is his calling. Just can't see him being happy as a journalist. But maybe as an editor or author on the side. 🤔

TweetyG

😂😂I was in her shoes a few times in college ngl

Jessica

So glad Josh clarified what he was saying and awesome that he didn't betray Sooch's trust!

J.K. Hogan

There's always that one kid in the class. It's Sooch. He's that kid.

Gabi

Gee that chick. What's with the face m'lady?! lol

Rose Ponce

I was that kid in class... just trying to be helpful haha 😄

MessusMinnow

Grammar is a thing! 😂😂 I’m dead.

Senait N

That side eye has me dead 😂

Gracie Bou

These comments are the first time I’m realizing you’re not supposed to peer review like that. 😅

Gracie Bou

I agree! I’d rather have Sooch’s review hands down. Or what’s the point?

Melinda

As an English major I know her look well. I laughed really loudly, then explained it to my husband as I laughed some more. He's a biology major, and he didn't get it.

Samantha Bundy

I was 100% Sooch in Lit classes in college.
