I guess you could say everything that's happened so far was the Season2 prologue 👀Anyway just a minor heads up that I'm changing these post titles and excluding the "(S2)" from the title because it's starting to run so damn long, lol. Also, I've been debating on whether or not to post spoilers images as the preview in these discussion posts. I know not everyone gets to read the episodes first (lol Mindy) and I can always pick a non-spoiler image instead, so let me know your thoughts guys. Now, let's discuss! <33

Ooooo Gil.... I get the feeling that Giant Goldfish may be a front for some shady business.

A. Paz Díaz

My poor little heart is so happy that Quincey and Tora know what I think we know but Pops doesn’t know. Ps. Tora asking them to stfu bc they where doing the nasty is too relatable

Jaki

If I ever wanted to reach into my phone and bitch slap someone, it was tonight 💁🏻‍♀️

Shprinze

Oh! I think Gil need some real quick reminder about your place. Poppy is asome

Laur-machine

I AM HERE FOR DADDY QUINCEY!!!! 👁👄👁 like excuse me SIR! Yes please. 😌

Emma Annunziato

I have a feeling things might get messy with Gil…😳

Leanne DuPree

Loved the episode!! So much to think about! And omg, Gil!! And, why was Tora's hand bandaged? 🤔

Kristina Shelton

Drops at 8pm my time bet your butt I'm stopping what I'm doing to read it 🤣🤣 but seriously quincey's face when tora called him out

JasmiNails

Awww poppy hanging off of tora is just the sweetest thing. Also we KNEW Gil was shady! Did he hire poppy just because he was trying to get into her pants?

Catie

Gil is a shady bastard. I don’t trust him whatsoever and it looks like our boys don’t either.

Heather Tigner

I need to know what is going down with gil. Knew I didnt like him for a reason!

LouCas27

Lily and Team: So how sexy do you want Quincey in a suit? Us: Yes. The last few panels intrigued me. Does Quincey and Tora know Gil and his, uh, activities? And who are the guys with the rose tattoo 😳😳😳?!? Thanks to last week sexy banter, I almost forgotten about the notebook and it’s implications 😅. Awesome episode as always! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

ObstinateHeadstrongGirl

Okay whaaaaaaat!?! Someone needs to come check Gil for talking shit! He sure as hell is bad news but it seems like Quincey (lookin like a SNACK today I might add) has not gone in blind either. Quincey likes to make us forget who he is until he breaks out that ice cold mob boss stare. Gil better watch out before he’s “numbered.” Also, I feel your pain Tora, sharin walls is some bullshit sometimes. 😅😂😩 Quincey if you knew it was gonna be like that you shouldn’t have had him stay over! 🤣 Also love that last panel confirming Tora kicked some ass last night. Ugh such a good ep!

SOPHIA A

Okay Tora is definitely avoiding Poppy after beating up rival gang members probably because he doesn't want to drag her into his world. Quincy definitely knows something in Gil. And Gil is super sketchy.

Keely

I feel like gil is going to try to hurt poppy in some way. Quincey and Tora know something is up with him and Quincey want to protect her from. I still feel like her hairpin is connected to the clan in some way. Ive heard theories that think her and Quincey are related. I know I’m the original she was supposed to like Quincey as well but I mean you could have changed it. I guess we will see.

EllieBear

Such an awesome chapter! Who exactly is Gil? That’s my big question🧐. Now to reread the chapter more thoroughly 😁

Nordorr

Tora banged on the wall so hard he bloodied his knuckles 😂😭 So excited to see the return of Quincey and Erdene and Jacob's shirts ❤️

Ardent

Is Tora suspecting the 'numbered' the one from the guy name Martin or something? Because he kicked the cone to the group who has rose tattoos. I think someone said before that Martin's use rose tattoo to symbolise themselves and it's different than the one Tora has on his neck.

BegoniaRex

That's exactly how I've explained season 1 to people before - a very long and amazing prologue to the intense second season I knew we were going to get. And MAN, was I right!! Like, Gil. Motherf-ing GIL and his shady ass chin hairs. I am so worried for Poppy now around him, because who the HELL is that man?!

Sahar

We know who's days are numbered now! Musty gill

TicklemeAli

You KNOW our cinnamon baguette beat the SHIT out of House Tyrell ✌🏼

Becks

I wouldn't doubt that the company was a front for something, probably the new job that tora was going to start. The picture of poppy and tora was adorable.

TicklemeAli

I’m just here for Mob Boss Quinceton and the blank stare of doom

Kaitlyn Waid

I have nothing of substance to add to this discussion. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH WTTTTFFFFF. I knew Gil was trouble when he walked in. Harumph.

Nikole

I knew that “thump” was more than just a bump in the night. 😏

Joanny P.Bouchard

One of my favorite !!! The action will be amazing. You're doing an amazing job!!!

TicklemeAli

Also Gil is a little bitch

Kayla

Child the audacity Gil like he doesnt have pubs for chin hairs! At first I understood him being worried and on edge like I mean they live in Narin it’s hella corrupt so being cautious comes with the territory but they he had THE NERVE to come for Poppy.😒 Like sir grow a beard before you try the homie Poppy E V E R again. Not to mention, didnt YOU ask her to meet with Mr. Lam?

Jenny Slusarz

Fuuuuckin’ Gil! I knew you were a shady fucker! it was the chin whiskers that tipped me off lol. He had to of known something about Poppy before hiring her. Quincey is in boss bitch mode and I’m living for it! I love how you illustrate him differently when he’s putting on a mafia-esque face. Our little cinnamon roll was extra drool worthy. I can’t wait to see Tora’s reaction to seeing Gil and what that means for Poppy.

Julia G

I knew Gil was a low key creep!!! What shady shit is he into and why is he complaining that the no experience/straight-outta-college young girl he hired actually landed him a huge writer for his business? That’s gonna make you money, tell her thank you and then quit whining! I hope Tora and Quincey make his life hell just cause he called Poppy a bitch. They’ll show you a bitch, Gil. Just you wait 🤗

Shaddai Griffith

Idk if Lily would see this... just a little correction to the title. It is Ep 65🙈

TicklemeAli

Our girl Bobby catching them bad vibez like the awsome earth witch she is ✨😌🤌🏼 #FuckYouGil

TicklemeAli

Now I need a secret garden of her kissing them injured knuckles ✨😌🦪💦💦💦👌🏼

kinkajou

1. Aww come awn, Tora and Poppy are just jealous that our Quincess and Dene can get it. 2. I swear Dene and Quincey better team up to get Tora and Poppy together because them fools are gonna take forever 😂 3. Gil you ungrateful bih. Also I heard that heart beat, was it good or bad? Can’t tell yet but I heard that ish son.

Morgen McDowell

So does anyone see a similarity to the rival gang tattoos that are the roses and the hair pin/brooch thing poppy lost? I’m not a flower-ologist but like I’m double taking on that. (And yes I made the assumption that all of them having the same flower tattoos in the same places as the balthuman rascals makes them a rival gang and the R stands for rose because I’m just running off on my own tangent 😅😭😂)

TicklemeAli

Gil is the typical misogynistic boss who wants to take all the credit and thinks he’s doing you a favor. Fuck you #PubeFaceGil

Christina Agan

Gil and all four of his chin hairs are SHADY AF. Especially chin hair #3. Extra suspicious!

VintageNerd

Okay first of all Gil don’t call my girl Poppy a b**ch. Can’t even grow a beard. Anyways……my guess is that Gil tried to blackmail Quincy…… and well Quincy got the upper hand, which forced Gil to sign the contract….or maybe I’m wrong. Maybe Quincy doesn’t know, and Gil is gonna try to black mail him….but it doesn’t explain the last scene in the car with Tora “What should we do now?” Hinting my first guess is what happened. And now Gil is gonna do some shady sh*t to Poppy, or hurt her even. How dare he when he used Poppy and overworked her. Without Poppy his Publishing company would just drown. I just fear Poppy being in her own world is not gonna make her aware of the hell hole she might be put through due to Gil, and I would hope her friends Ben and Erdene steps in. Now Ben and Erdene are all of us with our friends lol after the unclear photo of Tora and Pops was reveled, classic Poppy shys away and deflects and questions n tried to put it on Erdene and Damien aka Pinky….she should of known better…..baby Erdene got no shame in her game, if her and pinky smashed….she’s gonna tell u lol BTW I am loving the art style, and the many episodes we have been blessed with for season 2, and I know how hard you worked to have this on time for us who are fans of your work and fans of you. So thank you for another great episode and for making my Friday nights awesome again 💗💗💗💗 ***Edit*** Also might I add Giant Goldfish publishing company may be a front for something else, and now that he kinda knows what Quincy may be a part of it may bring more attention to his shady bulls**t company. And now he’s gonna put all the blame on Poppy if something goes wrong, so yeah I definitely think this season unfortunately Poppy might get hurt. I hope she’s aware enough to not be alone in that office with him.

Linden

I'm in such suspense!

Bukgirl

Quincy and Tora wearing any suit is like wearing lingerie and is no fair. Side note: it’s interesting that poppy knows that Quincy is in the mafia but Gil doesn’t. I’m interested in knowing what Gil’s true business is cus publishing must be a cover. I’m thinking that Poppy was just a cover and he really didn’t count on her being good at her job.

Morgen McDowell

This is going to be filed under shit I don’t need to tell others that I blurt out: but my roma/jewish heritage gives me a better beard than Gil. So he needs to pipe down and slow his roll because the grown-ups will spank his out of line little self back into his creepy little office.

Noshoutouts

Well that episode escalated quickly and I love it! Quincey was so on point this episode, and Tora ended up bustin them knuckles after all. My theory is Gil never intended for Poppy to succeed with Mr. Lam because he’s shady, but I love the depth of her character she is cute and girly and awkward but intelligent sharp somewhat shrewd and not afraid to get her hands dirty. It’s cool to see the play of wit between Tora and Poppy they are both so smart and present it so differently it’s like a game of chess with them.

Nicole Gatcomb

I'm guessing Giant Goldfish is a front for something, or Gil is hiding out from someone, and he realized they just landed an account that will bring way too much attention to his little business. That being said, it's his own fault for encouraging Poppy, if he wasn't prepared for landing the account. He shouldn't have underestimated our little hamster. And I love that Tora and Quincey are on to him.

Allie Kelly

Ok that was such a perfect balance of funny and creepy I can’t even! Can we talk about the Quincy coming in extra FINE tonight!! Best boy Tora is usually sexy self…. Oh man now we wait another week to see get that face smashed

Bly

Okay but HOW IN THE FUCK did Quincey go from Quincess to Big Daddy Quincey?!?!?! I got my panties soaking over here while I'm trying to get my nails done 🥴🥴🥴🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

Leslie

I love love love love the lighting in this episode. I could FEEL the walls of that office closing in. My god, I want to know what is really going on in Quincy and Gil’s brains and WHAT was on that paper. (Side note to appreciate the fact that Lily found the stereotypical Mac screen background to put on Gil’s laptop. ~sigh~ it truly is the little things) OKAY THOUGHTS 1. So we all agree by now that one of the major characteristics of MPL is that all the characters are more self-aware than they let on, right? Poppy is adorable but knows enough to use it to her advantage, ditto (except with scary/hot) for Tora, and so I’m going to ~probably~ put Quincey in this category too – the man knows he’s a pretty boy who ~reads~ as fairly effeminate, so….that spooky af aura he was giving off in Gil’s office is absolutely intentional. Which means he knows something about Gil and/or Giant Goldfish Publishing, yes? And whatever he knows, it’s sus. 2. < obligatory insert of my absolutely worn-out “Gil + Giant Goldfish = FISHY because they both have FISH names and also Gil is SUS AS HELL” dad jokes > 3. Okay but fr to follow up on the whole Gil thing, I can’t figure out HOW he’s sus. If Quince smelled him out, whatever Gil is up to might have something to do with gang life….but if Gil didn’t know who Quincey is, it might not necessarily be gang life…what the frickity frick is this slimy dude up to??? 4. Ladies and gentle-thems, in script-writing, the sentence immediately before an interruption is always the most important to the plot. This is the rule. Therefore, may I direct your attention to what Poppy said right before getting distracted by sexy thoughts of Tora: “Why can’t these numbers tabulate correctly?” e.g. – something in the numbers at Giant Goldfish isn’t adding up. Maybe Gil is laundering money? Embezzling? In any event, Poppy appears to be the first person to have stumbled across this discrepancy. We got that dropped in and then conveniently distracted (along with Poppy) by a close-up of Tora’s jawline. I would bet the down payment on my next jumbo bag of marbles that little tidbit is going to come back in a BIG way. I’ve traded my marbles for tinfoil this week because I’m still finding marbles between the couch cushions after the season premiere. Carry on.

Lola

Two things: never trust those chin hairs and Quincey DADDY 👀

Morgen McDowell

Gil is way too skittery to be up to anything he is any good at. Like I would expect him to be some kinda low level undercover cop or dirty PI or low level pharmaceutical distributor possibly dabbling in something gross like human trafficking because his beard gives him busted by Chris Hansen (to catch a predator, it was a show, I’m old, google it) vibes

Leslie

Comment Round Two is nothing but an All Hail Erdene post.

By Janice Belarmino

Can someone remind me what did Gil did? Or what is he planning to do? I can feel the bloodlust from Quincey and Tora from PH

Laur-machine

Emily Basso

Okay... *cracks knuckles* Main “JNUYFTVFINUTFR$DT” moments for this fantastic chapter: 1. SO We finally know what that *Thump* was… and we open with Quincey getting the birthday sex Tora desperately wanted 🤣 meanwhile, he’s stuck (in what I’m sure will be a gut-wrenching back story one day) sleeping on the floor. Tora is just trying to induce a Poppy-filled wet dream and get to sleep… and he’s stuck listening to Quincess and Pumpkin get what sounds and looks like some envy worthy sex 😏 2. Back in present day- we get one of my all-time favorite scenes so far- simply because of how it was delivered to us and the intense emotional undercurrents the scene represents. The action- the movement – it’s all energy building up for some off screen action. With the added tension of the memory of Quincey getting a damn good ending to the night before- we have Tora standing in this alley- wet, horny from yet ANOTHER night of failed sexual release (and that epic kiss)…and on top of that, he’s fucking raging inside. That red spotlight on him is insanely telling, and that poor cone is going to be a catalyst for a thug-meet-cute. He exhibits some serious displacement, taking that fear, anger, disappointment, self-doubt, and excess adrenaline, out on the cone. Those other thugs from earlier got away. He LET them go. For her. But that need to chase them down, to hurt something, is still here. Clouding him. Haunting him. And with Poppy gone, unable to be that grounding force for him—in fact, having RUN from him… this little gang gets the privilege of being his displacement punching bag. Something so small- the perceived slight of a cone being kicked at them, and the invitation with that VICIOUS looking side eye…. Well those guys are about to be in a world of hurt just to help ease Tora’s mind. This was a rare look into the more complex side of Tora. He *did* need to hurt something (and we see the evidence of this in the last few panels of the chapter- with Tora’s bandaged hand hanging outside the car). Lily trusts us as the reader to see all these clues and fill in the fight, and it makes the delivery so INSANLEY satisfying! 3. “Daddy”. DADDY. Do I need to say more? I’m freaking CACKLING 🤣 🤣 🤣 Erdene is the friend I NEED in my life, or maybe I just want to be her?? With her lack of shame, the glorious sex positive goddess is ready to dish the details if Poppy is game! She has a healthy appetite and is NOT apologizing. That post-sex glow is still in full effect and I will be revisiting SG #110 like… 12 more times now. For plot details?…you know…dedicated fan just doing her research… 4. Andddddd now we get to the other meat of the episode. FUCKING GIL. Do y’all remember when he seemed like a cute little struggling small business owner?! BECAUSE THAT’S FUCKING GONE OUT THE WINDOW. But first: QUINCEY 👀 What the actual FUCK?!?!?! I’ve never wanted a SG with this man more in my life. BUT LOOK AT HIM. LOOK. AT. HIM. Every panel- he’s like a homing beacon to my vagina 🤤 Fuck Vincent. There, I said it. Don’t even want him right now. His son is the 2.0 model and I’m chucking my old (but reliable) nokia in the trash and snatching up this flashy new Iphone of a man. (JK I love you Vinny I’m sorry I said that) *scrolls to open shot of Quincey in muted tones looking down at the camera with his muscles barely contained in his shirt* …..NEVER MIND I’M NOT EVEN A LITTLE SORRY 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 5 Omg okay back on topic- but really. Gil Is sketchy AS FUCK and Quincey is playing some kind of power game here 👀… And at first, he’s pulling a “Poppy”. I stand by my opinion that he and she are so similar. They boy employs similar disarming tactics to her (i.e. “the stairs look old” and “you’re 6’3’??”), even though their outward images are so drastically different. Poppy plays up her size and looks, whereas Quincey downplays them, both using over flattery and laying on a fake-ditsy façade. They both SEEM innocent and unthreatening at times… when in reality… *scroll down a few panels* we get a secret deadly lion waiting under the surface. As we saw in this episode- Quincey is a master switch both in bed (soft boi with Cordy/powerhouse with Pumpkin) and in life- So watch the fuck out Gil. Between the lighting change, the camera angels, and the movements cues (Gil’s hesitancy to sign was masterfully drawn), we get some serious “Quincey is in control here” vibes. And those parting words (banter) of Gil downplaying his abilities and Quincey “encouraging” him are the fucking BEST. Sparing with words… sizing each other up- each trying to figure the other out!!! I GET TINGLES. 6. Now Gil. ALL the red flags. He’s been dodging Quincey… doesn’t want to sign him, he’s been “out of the office” constantly, he has basically a shell of a company here with minimal employees… and now that he’s signed Quincey he’s scared. He’s scrambling. He should be HAPPY to have this famous author no? But instead he’s a fucking PSYCHO. We have that light happy banter outside- and then we pan to Gil, still in that dingy lighting… and their laughter is MOCKING HIM. And while they celebrate… Gil unleashes some SERIOUSLY abusive thoughts. I compare him to an abuser but I’ll let Patty be the real authority on that- I’m just going off layman observations. But specifically his blaming her for DOING HER JOB. I can see that “You made me have to do this” bullshit mentality coming… and I’m freaking out. He thinks she owes him… Thinks he gave her a shot and now because of her actions, whatever his scam was is going to be found out. I assume he had something fishy (lol) planned here. We don’t know what yet… but Fuck, it ain’t gonna be good. 7. And Poppy feels it 😭 After all she’s been through, it’s starting to pile on, and Gil’s ill intentions are seeping into her awareness. She’s frazzled- probably tired, holding on to stress from SO MANY THINGS, Gil is shooting death vibes at her… and she’s waiting for TORA to come through the door 😭❤️ 😭❤️ 8. And then we get the last few panels- which are another favorite for me. If we look for it, we get a little comic magic where Poppy’s thoughts of Tora travel to Gil and merge with his thoughts of Quincey. He looks out the window, closes the blinds (SKETCHY AGAIN), but those thoughts continue down to the parking lot, where we land on the subjects themselves. 9. And we see there is a PLAN. But what that plan is? I guess we will have to wait and see. Quincey and Tora are on to Gil, and I am LOVING the idea of them working together. Just think of the banter… *drooling in humorous dialogue* 10. Then finally: Tora’s bandage. We get confirmation that those poor sexy thugs (YES all the characters are sexy I KNOW) got the living daylights beaten out of them to appease the unsettled mind of our favorite Mafia elite. The story is interwoven so beautifully, and I freaking NEED NEXT WEEK TO COME. I need more. I need answers and I NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK!!! I need all the comments. So I’m going to dive in now and see what y’all have to say 😍

Bri

Does Gil want to spend an evening with Quincey? 🥴

Megan

The emotional investment I have in this is astronomical.... spoiler images would feed my addiction HARD. I need it like I need food 😩😫 Also, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not gona lie. The first time I read this week's chapter I was confused but then it was all clicking. What's going on man!! I need to know!!

Grace Sacher

Me before this episode: Quineys just kinda meh… After: Meow daddy 🔥🔥🔥

Hannah

Someone said this on webtoon but what if tora and quincy have been looking into Gil for awhile like tora knows poppy had the book so what if they know or suspect that he took it like what I can't believe I didn't think of this

Tiffany Krug

I love how you presented the tense scene between Gil and Quincey. Like I felt it from the first scene with them and I was like "is something happening here...it totally is!" I'm curious about the fight and the people with rose tattoos on their head. And I didn't ever really like Gil, but I didn't realize how much of an twat he was! I'm excited to find out what Quincey and Tora know. Thank you for the chapter! ❤

Ms Scorpia

Is it just me or does Quincy get hotter and hotter each episode?

By Janice Belarmino

Does someone here have a discord community with fans of MPL? If there is, lemme join. I'm missing out in life so muccch aaaa

Bri

Who are the “Rose Head 🌹” guys?

Namizami

I think maybe you should post a random panel that isn't too much of a spoiler! That way you're showing some funny moments without spoiling too much for people who haven't gone to read the new chapter. But I loved this chapter!! It was so cool to see Quincey looking like a boss and I cannot wait to see what you're going to do next

Desiree DeRouen

Who forgot about the notebook!! ITS BEEN KILLING ME!! Did I forget to mention, I never forgot about that damn note book!!

Asia Neal-Allen

I missed Quincy!! Handsome as ever! Also...can we end Gil? Not about his shady ass. I didn't like him in season 1 & I'm ready to kill him in season 2. & Tora babe...why didn't you go see Poppy in her cute floral dress?????? She was waiting. You should never keep a girl waiting.

Erin S.

Yo Gil turned on that dime REAL quick. My dude, clearly you were hoping to fly under the radar with your shady shit, but you under estimated our girl Poppy! And Quincey isn't having any of that shit either. He's on to you! And I totally see Erdene and Quincey tag teaming to push Tora and Poppy together. As much as Erdene supports Poppy mounting Tora like the stallion he is, but I think Quincey will help her be totally down with our OTP through and through. And Poppy, we are all just as distracted as you are from that kiss! 🥵🥵🥵 we read it weeks ago now and we're still not over it! I think Gil has the notebook in his office, hence why he closed the curtains. Making sure no one can possibly peek in and see how shady he is! 🤬🤬

Jessica

my favorite episode of the new season so far. I love the art and seeing the dots coming together!

Anna Samuelson

I'm just thinking about how that thug earlier who asked Poppy "you ever seen him hurt someone because he WANTED to, not needed to?" And then he did just that literally right after she left. Chills.

Lesley Ann Boucaud

Gil &his shady ass think no one peep 👀 his shady shit. 🤔 I think he’s gonna get screwed by Quincy or get 🤬 up by Tora for messing with his girl. Speaking of missy, poppy got all dressed up for tora 🥰 to bad he didn’t get to see her 😭 with all that kissing in mind 😍

starforged

When are we gonna get some Secret garden posts with Quincy? I’m down for any of his mentioned sex partners. Oh at least a funny sketch of tora walking in on them 😅

larosamorada

HOLY FUCKING DADDY QUINCEY... 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 *Electric snapping noises, buzzing, passes out* Sorry y'all, I got nothing after staring at those biceps and forearms and DEAR GOD SOMEONE GET THAT VEST BUTTON REINFORCEMENTS!! 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 Y'all may have to wait until Sunday for my analysis. FUCK ME. 💀⚰️🥀

Ms Scorpia

Anybody else zoom in on all the scenes in fishy Gil's office to look for the notebook?

Ester-bean

Season 2, can't wait to know you. I've got so many questions, feeling all the emotions. Gil, what are you up to???? (I'm feeling sing-songing today 😂) Questions, questions, so many questions: 1. What did Tora see on his phone that made him angry enough to kick a cone?? He has quite the temper, so it could just be his battery died, but NO I think it must be significant! 2. Who is LR? Did Tora stumble into another gangs territory, get into a fight and that's why his hand is bandaged up at the end of the episode? 🤔 His other hand was the one that bled while he was kissing Poppy, so could be from when he banged his fist on the wall.... 😂 also, I love his look to the rose dudes. That side eye "whatcha lookin' at" look? **melt** 3. How did Poppy manage to jump up and grab Tora around the neck while in heels, on uneven ground and drunk?? Damn she really wanted to hug her Daddy 😏❤😂 Tora with his hand on his mouth 😳 lol 4. Can Erdene get any more smashing? (Lol) Is it physically possible? Don't think so. She's a queen 🙌 👑 5. Why was Gil avoiding Quincey? "Early bird catches the worm". Are you the worm Gil???? We're watching you wormy 🐛🔎 6. What did Gil need to sign? If it was just a formality, something Quincey needed, and something that Gil was hesitant to sign.... could it be a non-disclosure agreement? 🤔 I'm nerdy about forms and documentation... I want the juicy, bureaucratic, paper-pushing details 😍✍ 7. Why do I feel like its significant that Quincey called Gil an "entrepreneur"....? Maybe Quincey knows that Gil has multiple ambitions, some of which seem hella sketchy...... 8. Gil: why are you so careful about who you associate with? What exactly did YOU sign up for? Why are you hiding behind your curtains? Why are you such a asshoe?? 9. How is Lilydusk so good at creating so much suspense with no dialogue, no music, and just panels of office space/streets?? Webtoon Magician, right here 😍😍😍 10. Why is Tora avoiding Poppy? Shes so cute in her floral dress!! Big Bro is missing out 😢 11. What WILL they do next? 😱😱😱 Fridays are my favorite..... Can it be Friday again? 😅😘

Ester-bean

Oh and personally I don't check patreon until I've read the episode. I know that I'll get spoiled otherwise 😊.

Matcha_Cakes

Gil bout to get yeeted tf out off this phone. Talking bout our precious pops that way! Butttttttt. Daddy Quincey showing upppp. My god my god. Looking like a whole snack. You can tell that Gil didn’t not pass the vibe check.

Alice

So much to discuss! Can’t wait to see what happens with Gil since Tora and Quincy are on to him. Protect your girl Tora! Also can’t get enough of the building relationship between Poppy and Tora. So sweet and steamy!

Vita

Thats super sweet of you to think of Mindy!! I agree with your call that a non-spoiler image may be better to use. Loves the episode and how we see the direction the story will take. The lighting change when Gil and Quincy was fantastic too! It really built up the tension between them!!

Courtney Heff

Was anyone else excited about briefly seeing Pinky - I mean, Damien - again?!

lily_ofthevalley

I would love spoilers, I have a problem 🙃😅

Kalyisah

I just need Brian to shift just a lil bit to the right... so I can see tora’s blushing face when our busty little thing is clinging on him for dear life😂😅

MoodyTart

I’m wondering if the rose gang is where the pin came from?

Staci Carpenter

BEHIND GIL. In the panel where Quincy is sayig his outfit is perfect! BLACK NOTBOOK on table behind GIL

Olga Kolusenko

Shit’s about to hit the fan! I bet this would be the episode we go back to find easter eggs.

lily_ofthevalley

Poppy hanging on tora is everything 😍 he is definitely Daddy 🔥 But question guys: is toras hand wrapped because of him making his hand bleed from his nails, in the alley with poppy? Or did he possibly fight that small group after kicking the cone? What yall think?

noonanoonayay

Forgive me in advance for I am SO dumb. I am overly invested in the romance and chemistry that is between Poppy and Tora but boy do I feel like I'm driving on the wrong side of the road when it comes to the mystery of the whole overall plot. Gil being sus, the notebook, Tora's brother, Quincey, the Bathalumans, Ares Street, and all of that (I'm pretty sure I missed a whole lot of in between). Then again it's been months since last season but even then I'd like to think I have a better grasp at recapping Tora and Poppy's development compared to the bread crumb trail of clues and mysteries. I almost feel like there are still more pieces that still need to be told before everything starts making sense. I'd like to say I hope I'm not the only one but the majority of you all have better critical thinking and analytical skills than I do. Maybe I'm just eager to find out what everything means, especially me feeling impatient with what we last saw from the last panel of the season finale and it may need a few more episodes to start picking up speed again. Anyway, I don't know how to end this. I'm just invested and I love this story so much but I feel guilty because I feel I don't understand it quite as clearly as I hope. Love you all 💕

( • 0 • ) the plot thickens!

Noshoutouts

Okay so I just went back and read it again as I usually do and I just have to say these backgrounds were incredible! Every detail was chef’s kiss, even the car shadows in the distance was spot on. Great job team!

Matcha_Cakes

Also also also. The rose gang??? HAIRPIN?

Becks

I definitely think things will slowly unravel and poppy will figure things out. I bet tora is going to end up showing the violent side to protect her, as much he has been trying to hide it.

imilda

I was today years old when I realized I wanted to be ✨little pumpkin✨

lily_ofthevalley

Quincey has been my favorite blondie since day 1, his character is so damn funny and I love his and toras ying and yang dynamic. But it was amazing seeing him in true badass mode!

Andrea

A couple thoughts. The hairpin was something that came from Poppy’s Dad, and Poppy’s Mom is MIA. So maybe Poppy has dual ties to more than one gang. The notebook MAY have been in Gil’s office behind him? Did someone force Gil to hire Poppy? There was some weird statement about giving her a “meaningful” life. Was this requested of him? Money laundering? Is Gil an underling with only the directive of being a front and/or hiring Poppy? The rose tattoos on the rival gangs’ heads are BOLD. One of the TBO clan members had mentioned that their own tattoos were an eyesore and coverable. Why so bold? Are they OG and want to flaunt it? Is Lost Rose the name of the gang? Is Shane the Lost Rose who names her daughter Poppy? Or is it LilyRose???!! Lead Rose? Like bullets in a gun? I sincerely believe Mr. Lam’s wife may be a relative of Tora. Her smirk and Mr. Lam’s interest in following through with a mission as a last wish… Also maybe I’ve been reading too much Purple Hyacinth. Fin.

KaitlynA

Oof. Such a good episode! Tora smoking because he's torn between wanting to see Poppy and being too ashamed to face her because he got in a fight to blow off steam. 💔 and probably also not wanting to beat up Gil...yet.

Molly Hull

Seeing Quincey all scary like scared me!!! And Gil!!! I knew he was bad news, but somehow blanked on Tora and Q knew!! I’m so glad this comic is back! It’s my favorite!!!

Lauren

So much goodness in this episode! Also to reference the preview image question I personally love the images and they get me really excited!

Pace

The change in color scheme between panels as it starts to get more serious in the office with Quincey and Gil is fantastic👌🏻👌🏻

T. Lele

I don't always fast pass, but I don't mind spoiler images! Especially the good ones 😏 It greatly encourages me to fast pass 😂

Sarah Hernandez

Does anyone have the lethal weapons number? Cause ooohhh boy, I need him to have a nice friendly chat with Gil🙂🔪

LoopyJ

The level of instant rage I felt when that weak, insecure, lousily stubbled turd of a man Gil started to ooze his venom towards OUR POPPY...!!! 😳😡👿🤬🤬😾🤜💥💥🤛💣🥒🧨🌩🌪 ... Oh hell no!

Also, I am rooting for Gil's face to have an unlucky run in with a bricked wall.

ForsakenWeeb

What are the chances of Gil actually running something shady like a Ponzi scheme or something 😅 I would say another gang but since Gil didn't know who Quincy really is. I'm just gonna guess Gil trying to pull off a ponzi scheme. Also cause Poppy mentioned how the books aren't adding up...gotta follow 👏🏽the 👏🏽money 👏🏽honey 👏🏽

HailGail

So I think the guys in the alley are a rival gang. They had rose tattoos. Also reminds me of poppy’s hair pin. I bet her mom is related to that gang....

Seazar

Tora! TORA! Gil called Poppy the B word! Get him! Seriously, Gil what the hell is your problem? We knew you’re shady but what exactly is the involvement? Why the hate when in Poppy’s mind she landed a huge deal for the company? She didn’t even pursue the deal with Mr. Lam knowing about Quincey. The rose tattoo guys!! Definitely a rival gang. Did Tora kick the cone to them by accident? Or purposefully? That shot of Poppy hugging him is SO cute! And I love that she pretends it was the alcohol full well knowing she made out with him in an alley on Ares Street the day after! Like girl! 😂😂 I know she can’t tell them about Ares Street, but damn, I would be bursting to tell someone. And she wore a cute dress for him!! She wanted him to see her and to be smitten 😍 And, Tora losing it at Quincey’s sexcapades was gold 😂

ReineK

This is not a problem for me to see spoil image before to read weebtoon episode because there are no dialogue

Célèste

This new chapter is Awesome as always !! can't wait for more !!!!

Hannah_Wills

Did Tora avoid going into the office so Poppy wouldn’t see his bandaged hand? Awh Tora 😭

Green Eyed Soul

OMG poor Tora got distracted in his happy thoughts about Poppy by moaning Quincey and grunting Pumpkin. Or was it the other way around? What a turn off 🤣🤣🤣 I guess that's one of the reasons he isn't livng with Quincey. Hahaha and Quincey acting all shocked like 😶 But what I take from the sneak peak with Quincey is he seems to be a giver rather than a receiver👀👀👀😝   Anyway moving on 😬 We're back in the shady area around Ares Street and Tora seems to be in another clans territory as I take it from the graphity on the column 🌹 What I have noticed is that they wear their clan tattoos on the head. I guess they are high ranking members of their clan then? Because I remember that the high ranking members of the Balthuman organization wear their tattoos on the neck. My initial thought was that it might be the nine daggers but that can't be. Whatever LR stands for must be their clan name. What could it mean? Lily Rose? Lion Rose? Le Rose? La Rosa? Guess we shall find out soon! But what immediately came into my mind was Poppy's mom and that she might've something to do with this new clan. I also thought at first that the flower was a poppy but it definitely is a rose.   Tora doesn't seem impressed though and he's pissed because Poppy ran away from him and he really wanted to kiss her again. Guess he’s got some energy to waste lol.   So we are back at Giant Goldfish Publishing and I was so excited to see Jacob and Erdene! BTW I absolutely LOVE Jacob's shirt❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 Jacob sure took a lot of pictures that night and I'm curious what more pictures he took lol. OMG I adore that pic for so many reasons. First of all I'm suprised that Poppy is able to reach around with her T-Rex arms lol. And even though we can't see Tora's face I'm sure he's really happy about his hamster clinging on to him like this hehehe. Because his body langue seems so relaxed.   Okay moving on, I'm so impatient because finally Quincey baby is back 👏👏👏and he looks full of authority and that's sexy as hell! After all he's clan royalty. What I take from the conversation between him and Gil is that Gil seemed to kind of avoid meeting Quincey and signing the contract. Maybe that is exactly the reason Quincey came in early to catch Gil off guard and get him to sign that contract. Quincey seems t know more than he reveals but he manages to stay friendly and calm. Quincey should work in customer service lol. He knows how to deal with shitty people lol.   I want to take a moment and talk about Poppy here. I can't help but feel sorry for her at this point 🥺She's such a hard working young adult who tries to achieve her goals in live. But Gil only gave her a job for shady reasons we have yet to learn and also Quincey is kind of using Poppy for his clan's objects. Gil obviously didn't have a lot of faith in Poppy's skills and didn't expect her to get a big author into the company. I bet he thought she'd be a quiet employee that would disappear in the shadow of her daily work with nothing much to expect from.   But what could be Gil's intention. He doesn't seem to know that Quincey is a high ranking clan member but somehow Quincey has this kind of clan aura that Gil notices. I wonder if he's even interested in running a publishing business or if it's not a cover up to do other business instead. Does he know something about Poppy and her mom? Also I wonder if Gil could be Ben's father. They look so alike! That would be quite something!!! Man, the look Gil gave Poppy was so full of hate, it gave me chills 😖😖😖   Poppy seems to have expected Tora to join Quincey, which makes sence since he's his bodyguard. She even put on a nice dress! You guys remember when she didn't even a damn about her outfits? I remember their first "date" at Alice's restaurant, where she just put on clothes that were still clean. She started to be more mindful, also because she wants to look pretty for Tora! Though Tora wanted to impress her from the beginning.   Who's that down in the car, Gil? You waiting for someone? Damn this dude is so scary!   I wonder what happened to Tora's hand! Did it happen while banging against the wall when Quincey was enjoying sexy times? I don’t think it happened with the clan members.

Green Eyed Soul

And regarding spoilers, how about doing a pre-celebration instead like you did before towards the end of S1? I miss those chats and I really enjoyed them…

Sofia

Wow! The setup for a thrilling, if not explosive, development! Gil can't hide his shady ass anymore. Quincy catched him by surprise on purpose. And Tora is seriously frustrated...😜 everybody is getting ready for some action. In every sense of the word...

LoopyJ

Do these floral thugs call themselves "The Left Roses"?!? They only seem to be decorated on the left side. 😅 Slightly kitschy emo vibe, but why not? ... Now kick their asses, big tiger! 👊🌹🥀🦵

LoopyJ

Also, I want Jacob's foxy fox shirt, for fox sake!

Tricharm

Poppy seemed to be hanging off Tora before she even painted his nails!

KH

Ok dumb question... I can’t believe I didn’t think of this - did Tora put his cigarette out in his HAND!? Is that what he was clutching to make it bleed/be bandaged?

Rachel B.

I just LOVE how well Quincy can flip that personality switch. I almost forgot, with that sexy ass countenance, that he was banging his "Pumpkin" just a few panels before! 🤣🤣 I absolutely despise Gil! I cannot believe he had the nerve to try and stare quincy down. My man clearly has no idea whom he's fn with. I wish he would try something with Poppy, Tora will tear that mfer limb from trunk! Oh and Poppy is so adorable! She even wore her flower dress, with the hopes of seeing her Tiger again. 🤭🤭🤭 One more thing, what happened to Dene's tattoo in the first few panels that we see her?

Closet Artist

I love the picture of Poppy hanging on Tora like it’s a natural thing for them to do. They both just look so comfortable. I love too that she dressed up nice for him to. Coming around to them feelings Pops…💜 lol

Rose Amelyn

Broooo quincey is so soooo fine in this 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Sharonda

Am I wrong but last season didn't Gil find the NOTEBOOK on Poppy's desk & take it? Gil is definitely the opps🤨Every since I saw him doing that I've been looking at him sideways😒

msnonchalant5

Ok so first off umm did someone try to hurt my.. I mean Poppy’s Tora baby.? HELL NO! Second off I love Jacob and Erdene but they remind me of those friends you love to party with and spill tea with but you never totally fit in with. Lastly I feel like Gil is suspicious of Poppy even though he is the suspicious one, with all the creeping and disappearing he does. He just has to know something.

Myosotis

Still need to read it aaah

emilyjean

The tension is so palpable all throughout this episode and just...*chef’s kiss* MASTERFUL 💖💖💖 One thought I had is, did Tora and Gyu look into Gil way back when they searched the offices? Since they didn’t find the notebook there, their next step might have been to look into the employees....of course this could be wrong! But it seems like both Tora and Quincey are one step ahead of whatever shadiness Gil is hiding behind. And we all know Lily is the master of the flashback!!

Keely

I’m genuinely curious, what is Quincey’s sexuality? It doesn’t bother me or anything I’m just curious.

Wendy H

Totally okay with spoiler pics even though I don't read ahead too. I'm up for the slow 🔥. 😁

Monica

I've said in the comments in the webtoon how much I love this story. Reminds me Sooo much of how my husband and I met 17 yrs ago. Im the good girl with a spin and he WAS a bad boy by birth into his family but not as a human being. We match...Tora and Poppy match! This song was the first time my now hubby sent me when he didn't know how to ask what "we were" it's called Do It Well by DVSN it was his way of saying he trusted me. Hope you love it. I can totally see Tora sending this to Poppy! https://youtu.be/NAAFIM6Pr9g

Marley

Anyone else obsessed with Toras hands or 🤭 🥵 Lol But anyways, I really liked how these first few episodes of season 2 did kind of recapped what’s been going on and I like how we’re getting back into the main story line now. It has a really nice flow to it. I hope we get to see Pops and Toras relationship blossom even more. I feel like Tora is coming to terms with his feelings for Pops and I really hope we get to see him talk about it soon, I love the mushy Tora 🥺 I also love how Quincey can be bubbly and goofy, then switch to this very professional almost “don’t cross me” strong vibe. Totally diggin the character developments. I don’t have any negative comments, just that I need more episodes before I go into withdraws 😩🐯🐹

Jain Jo

Is Erdene/Pinky sex art on the table for NSFW posts?? 😍😂🧐

hsy9258

prefer the spoilers!

Nicole Nosek

It‘s easier to avoid the spoilers here than in Facebook. It takes a lot longer for us in Europe to be able to read new episodes. (It‘s always like 3 or 4am in the morning…) So, being a mum and trying to be a sensible adult, I don’t stay up that long and always read on Saturday morning. BUT one must really avoid opening Facebook like the plague before reading the new episode because you‘re flooded by spoilers and so on by the Facebook-fangroup. 🙄 But since the notifications always say „sneak preview“ I just know not to come here, so I good either way.

Pam 701

Erdine’s tattoo is gone at the beginning, and then reappears later?

Talisha

Is it just me, or does Quincy look absolutely scrumptious when he knows dirt on someone and is playing them like a fiddle??

TicklemeAli

I’ve been reading over and over again this last ep. and everytime I do I’m more convinced is my favorite one yet. I haven’t made one of these in a minute so bear with me 🤣🤣🤣 This whole ep was a measuring of dicks and we all know who came ON 👏🏼 TOP 👏🏼 #PunVeryMuchIntended. Our Quincess is 👩🏼‍🍳 💋 the definition of duplicitous and he does it in spectacular fashion. Like Tora’s “fear and intimidation “ second language, I feel Quincy’s ability to switch persona’s is very much ingrained in him. Which makes me wonder how much does his dad or anyone outside of Quincy’s Angels truly know him. I’m reminded on the scene in the club where he took the thuglets to the side and they where very much afraid of young Master Balthuman . Not even they know what lurks within. And I’m very excited to see more of this character that is as larger than life on the outside as he is complex on the inside. He was in control the ENTIRE exchange. From the way he was sitting down, body language fully open, imposing, to direct eye contact. Not even flinching. I think we forget that this is also not Quincy’s first rodeo with publishing houses. He has been burned before and this time homeboi comes prepared. Also that comment “ah yes a very hard worker MY little Miss Editor is”. To me that was a full on claim and stake of power. Im the boss, Poppy works FOR ME, not YOU. 💯/ 💯✨😌🤌🏼 Now, that’s out of the way. Let’s get into why this is my favorite episode yet. Lily always finds a way to remind us that more than a romance, this is a story that ,one of it’s core lessons is to never judge a book by it’s cover. And boy did we get schooled with this one. Let’s start with #PubeFaceGil. I think is safe to say that after the first season the suspish vibez skyrocketed when it came to Gil. However we never saw inside his head. Until now. And it was as enlightening as it was shocking to see what lurks inside this man. To me the most impressive and why I love Lily’s way of creating these characters is that it had NOTHING to do with the notebook. What we saw, is who Gil is as a person. A shallow, jealous and conniving little man. Just when we thought we had a villain in Vincent’s, here comes Lily with a curve balls. A very real very relatable mundane villain. We see a man who takes others at face value which is very interesting aspect of his personality considering what his job is. We see him immediately judge Quincy by his outfit and demeanor. BRAVO LILY! ✨😌👌🏼. Let’s dive. Personally I found Gil’s sentiments towards Poppy infuriating but not surprising. Gil is the typical Boss, who when in the presence of a hard working employee who clearly knows more than him or gets the job done in a more efficient way, instead of making the most out that asset, he diminishes and belittles that employee. I think we’ve all been there at some point. Also the abusive and exploiting of young people who are entering the workforce. Yeah you “gave her a fancy title “ whatever that means, but fancy tittles often come with fancy paychecks. Which is not the case here. He is clearly exploiting Poppy and his narcissism is so outstanding he wholeheartedly believes he’s doing her a favor. His ego is so out of it he attributes the fact that “poppy is living a meaningful city life” to himself and the fact that he fave her a job. Giiiirrrlll I was triggered. Also a fancy title doesn’t pay the bills soooo #FuckYouGil This takes me to the other issue at hand. Why would a CEO of a small publishing company who is struggling financially, hesitate to sign a big time author who is not only popular , and will be SURE MONEY for the bussiness , but that has also brought BiG MONEY in the form of our Salty old man “Mr. Lam”? Even though having a pseudonym in the publishing world is not an uncommon thing, Poppy did her job. And all of Quincy’s paperwork are in order (obviously we know that Clan power has the means to wipe the slate clean, but Gil doesn’t know that). He has Google… we have a Gyu. Boi, sit the fuck down. This makes me think two things. One, is that Gil is not really suspicious of Quincy in the way that we think. He says “I need to be careful around him because I don’t know who he really is”. This makes me believe that Gil intended to do business in a more loose way, by Poppy and Quincy ensuring contractual paperwork is signed, he is forced to do things the legal way. I mean who gets angry when your editor actually DOES HER JOB?? Unless you don’t want that job to be done THAT WAY. Which makes me even more suspicious, because we see Poppy having trouble having the numbers make sense. My theory, is that Gil may have squandered money away, or asked for a loan from unsavory people. Like Candy did. He thought Poppy was just a simpleton country girl, dumb, easy to manipulate. He judged her at face value, and hired her because he thought he could manipulate everything in the bussiness. And now is realizing our girl goes by the book. And that goes against his plan. What is his plan and motive? Now THAT is the real question. I fear things for our girl will get worse before they get better. But the silver lining is that now she’s not alone. And again we are schooled in not judging things just for what they seem. Here we have two very much knee deep mafia men, doing things the right way. If they found out something fishy about Gil, I think Tora will suspect he has the notebook. Now let’s go to our Bobby. I’m loving the fact that she is showing CONFIDENCE. I think pieces #16 and #47 of her self esteem are showing their cute little ears and Im here for it. More than dressing up for Tora, I saw her being confident enough to feel good AND look good. After being gaslighted by a piece of shit it’s empowering to know that you have a voice, an effect on the people around you. And hey it doesn’t hurt that a hottie cinnamon baguette has made known very plainly that he wishes to TAP 👏🏼 THAT 👏🏼 ASS 👏🏼 I’m very much looking forward to the day she realizes just how smart, funny and fucking beautiful she is and how she impacts the lives around her. Baby girl you are not a poppy seed tumbling in the wind. You are a bad ass tree that gives comfort, protection and steadiness to those around you. You are life itself. A thousand more offerings to my Lily shrine muah muah muuuaahhh

Ty

Bruuuuuh... Gil is making me anxious - at this point I don't even know what to expect next. Too bad tora didn't see poppy in her floral dress 😋. So I feel like I'm slow, but it seemed like Quincey and Tora already suspect something (like from Gil)?! Just the way he tossed the paper and was like "what should we do now?" What I can't figure out though, is if that's like an "okay that's done what u wanna do the rest of the day" or if it's an "okay did that, now what are we gonna do about said problem" 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Debbie

Quincey absolutely have me chills this episode, in the way he stared down Gil. You can definitely see dear old dad’s genetic influence shining through. And that shady motherfucker Gil. 😡 My guess is that they had Gyu look into him because he’s been suspiciously unavailable to meet with the absolute BIGGEST fish (no pun) his company has landed. I think Tora may have gotten some info about Gil that pissed him off/ upset him, possibly which could impact his delicate relationship with Poppy. This may have led to two outcomes: 1) he kicked a cone and then kicked the shit out of a handful of thugs to let off some steam; and 2) Tora and Quincey decided to send Quincey in alone to meet with Gil as a strategic move. Quincey, as we all know, can be very charming and non-threatening when he wants to be, but clearly has a previously unseen death glare powerful enough to make Gil sweat like he’s in sauna. (So proud of our boy! ~sniff sniff~) Quincey made sure to mention how he skipped hot yoga to surprise Gil, which let Gil know he knew he was being avoided. Also, I agree with other comments that Quincey laid claim to Poppy by calling her “MY miss editor.” I hope that Gil caught that she’s under Quincey’s protection, but while Gil doesn’t know anything about Quincey, that may not mean anything yet. I’m so worried about poor Poppy- she doesn’t even know she walking into the lion’s den every day she goes to work. Well, she does have a Tiger that would be more than happy to protect her. I just hope he’s there to do it. 😧 Lily said she’s going to play up the “thriller” aspect of this murder/romance this season, and she is not disappointing at all. Now to just get my freaking anxiety under control, waiting for the next episode.

Myruhhz

please continue spoilers 🙏🏽

So I love Quincy. I love that he’s the pole opposite of his father. But him, sitting there clearly being intimidating? Yeah. That was HAWT. 🔥🥵🥲

Keely

My life would never be boring with the iconic Quincey and his Angels. I love Quincey and Tora. Quincey cracks me up and Tora is adorable but can be scary af.

Claudia

I do t mind the spoilers, to be honest im happy supporting whatever you want to post and feel you want to share and show us :)

Ari Peacock

@Emily Basso exactly! I love all the points you made, and especially about Quincey. When he's with friends he's corky and relaxed, but when it comes to his writing you are stepping into HIS element, and you better come correct. This is what he does, he has no insecurities about his skills. I was confused before about why he kept dodging Mr. Lam but now it all makes sense. 🧐

Maya Saphir
