Week 263! (Patreon)

THIS MARKS PAYMENT FOR THE WEEK OF 8/18-8/24.

And a third script update for the month, because this month happens to have five total weeks in it! This one's page 456.

I didn't really mention it in the text post for the previous update, but Lucy did kind of "attack" Fox Kale there. Whether he deserved it or not, I think this is the most obvious sort of reaction he'd have to that considering how suspicious and antagonistic he's been towards Lucy basically the entire time she's been around. Of course he'd feel his suspicions were validated and of course he'd immediately try to retaliate. Of course, we've also seen how Fox Kale threatening Lucy has gone down before, albeit in a less direct manner.

This is gonna come up far more blatantly in the next page, but one kind of realizes here how... pretty ineffectual Fox Kale is. The only victory he's gotten thus far was the brief one over Kale, a person with absolutely zero experience knowing or doing any of this weird stuff at the time, before that other Kale got in the way and defused the whole situation (where has that guy been, anyway? hmmm). Considering his bluster and eagerness to go hunt down those he wants revenge against, this bit is meant to make obvious the fact Fox Kale is not actually that competent or ready to go do the thing he wants to do right this minute (if you expected him to be anyway, as one could've just acknowledged long ago the fact that he's basically just an angsty teenager who thinks he can solve everything on his own), as well as show that Lucy is at least somewhat capable of teaching the both of them if he's able to stop Fox Kale so easily like she has here.
