Page 385 – Maddie
Jun14
So is Maddie at all what you expected, in look or in mannerism? Or the fact that she seems to be clueless about what’s going on with Brooke and her fianceé Michael? And there’s Brooke’s reaction too….
Escalade Rental!
I think it’ll show up better in the print version but this is kind of hard to see but Topher’s Escalade is a rental. Guess he’s not making that much money yet in his budding MMA career. XD
Voting Incentive!
Vote to get a sneak peek for Wednesday’s update!
Discussion (22) ¬
Based on today and the voting incentive, this is going to be a wild week can’t wait. Looks like Brooke, is starting to realize that this love triangle is more complicated then she has been fooling herself. This could be a situation that could really test Brooke’s character. Rule number one for “Mr. Diva Breaker” do not brag about ride if its a RENTAL, might want to give up while you ahead.
My respect for Michael just dropped down into the negatives. Seriously, he’s stepping out on her for Brooke??? Also, why in the name of taste and decorum is she engaged to HIS fake-baked butt? ::reaches for the love potions he swiped from the fairies to try and set Maddie up with Trevor::
Could it be that Maddie is use to him cheating on her and is into three-somes? Or does she trust him? One thing about loving someone is that there has to be the trust issue. If you don’t trust your partner then you shouldn’t be with them. On the other hand if you find out that your partner can’t be trusted then it is time to neuter them and move along.
Speaking of which I know a great vet.
As for the Topher and company, if you are dating for material things are dating for the wrong reason.
I figured Maddie would be very pleasant all around so much so that it’d make us dislike Michael even more, and that indeed seems to be the case.
Topher is a lamewad and undeserving of the attention of the almighty DefTech, hehe.
Maddie is flaming hot, and pretty lady.. why the hell Michael go out with Brooke? Maddie is more hotter than Brooke..
by the looks on panel 2: Brooke seems defeated.. heheheh!! Maddie is more prettier than Brooke..
(IMO)
Maddie is quite a body, she could train and be a rival angels wrestler. hehehhe!!
Oooooo Looks like thing are going to hit the fan soon enough. But if she’s going to be sick then I’m glad I have a separate bathroom. Snow, go give her a hand, huh?
never expected Maddie to be a redhead i must say. i think Michael just proved the old saying “if you make funny faces it’ll freeze that way” in panels 2-4- his grin seems to be a bit stuck- either that or he’s trying out for the Joker in some Rival Angels/Batman crossover.
i do believe Miss Def Tech is toying with Mr. MMA just to see how badly he’ll screw up trying to impress her.
Clearly Michael goes for big (fake) breasts and and blonde hair over the really nice brunette. I hope maybe Brooke calls it off after this.
I don’t know how I feel about Krystin here. Is she really this much of a bitch to every guy who tries to be with her, or is it because Topher is such a cocky tool?
Can we call Maddie.. “Goddess!!” since Brooke loss. this round.. and obviously..
Maddie just dominate the scene..
jabberwocky, it seems like Brooke definitely was affected by coming face to face with Maddie. It might even cause a startling decision for Brooke. Right now, Krystin seems happy with Topher’s ride but he hasn’t been doing so well since Sabrina left.
Cookie Ogre, that’d be ironic to set Maddie and Trevor up! Especially since Michael and him seem to share the same love for blondes and Oz-accents. I can tell you that Maddie and Michael have been seeing each other and have been engaged for a while. As to why Michael would stray…there’s a few explanations isn’t there? Starting with him being an a-hole…
Hey Snowy! That’s certainly a possibility that Maddie is hip to what Michael’s doing. As is always the case in these sort of things, time will tell. But I can tell you that Maddie does trust Michael. As for Krystin and Topher, it seems like they’re going in circles with him trying to keep up.
Good read, Chris! Maddie might not be the bombshell that Brooke is but she’s got enough to send Brooke exiting the room in a rush. I think lots of readers agree with you about Krystin and Topher. She’s definitely calling the shots so that’s probably why he’s still around. XD
MGC, it does seem that Brooke got KO’d there didn’t it? I’m glad that you like Maddie too. 🙂 Maddie’s the type to cheer for her favorite wrestler not actually get involved but it seems like she’s doing okay on her own. If Michael is used to calling Brooke ‘goddess,’ what does he call Maddie?
Champ, you are very thoughtful to have Snowy go check on Brooke. Maybe hold her hair back for her? XD This is going to be the first domino falling in the fortunes of the Upstart girls. O_o
jpiv, I knew I wanted Maddie to be the opposite of Brooke to give you a bit of insight into how his mind works. That being said, I don’t think he’d object to Ultradragon either, provided they weren’t beating the tar out of him. Yeah, Michael does seem frozen with that look, eh? lol You got a great read on Krystin too.
Ken, I see you have some hope for Brooke. We’ll find out what she wants to do pretty soon. Krystin is playing it pretty cool here, but I’m thinking this might be one of those ‘a little of both’ situations.
Come on! Brooke is not going to change her whole life’s priorities just because she saw Maddie face to face! She’s too shallow AND too stupid to do that. Just like her wrestling matches, when she’s over her head, she leaves and gets help, or something else to give her an advantage.
As for Krystin, she’s just giving Topher a little hazing, jerking his chain to see if he is trainable… But would she really be so easy as to leave with him now, instead of making him suffer for another hour or so?
Note to self: replace cheap rental key chain with nice expensive one & remove rental ads from interior…
I hope you guys have the sense to get your rentals early so you can get comfy with them. There’s little funnier than watching a dude try to find the wipers or on button for the deck. (Not that I can figure one out) 😛
Is it me or is Michael got a serious perma-tan going?
Also Topher looks like he hasn’t bargained on that famous 9am call. What call you ask? Why the Enterprise car man calling to collect that nice Esplanade of course!
Either way Krystin isn’t going to be very impressed.
GhostEraser, you are right about Brooke’s strategy especially when it involves retreat. However, you may be surprised to find what Brooke has to say when we see her next. O_o Krystin is pretty much getting away with whatever Topher is willing to put up with. She is leaving with him but expect the pain and suffering to continue. 😉
Heh, Champ, it’s funny you bring that good advice up. I think it’s going to come into play when we see them next. XD
Hey Pete! Michael’s got a membership to those spray on stalls. Maybe Maddie’s idea? Krystin’s already got a pretty good idea about the stuff that Topher is made of, even without the clue of the rental keychain. That’s not going to stop Krystin from being Krystin though. 😉
You know, I don’t see how anybody could have anything resembling respect for Michael when they consider he was cheating on his fiancee, regardless of what she looked like. That said, finding out that Maddie is in fact quite attractive, I now think even less of Michael than I did before. But if Maddie is as slow as she appears, then neither Michael nor Brooke have anything to worry about (or you know, if it comes to light that she likes three-ways). However, at this juncture, I’m for thinking that she knows and is just playing dumb until just the right moment. Even if she’s not, I maintain that she can’t possibly have missed how they were acting toward each other mere moments ago.
Ahaha, a rental – that’s lovely =D I’m also entertained that it’s an Escalade – that’s one of the easiest cars to break into (not that I’m a car thief or anything, but I worked at GM for a while and know allllll about that one).
Trevor, before I get my Puck on over here (sorry, hockey fans, that’s a Shakespeare reference), thought I better check. Do you want me to set you up with Maddie? ::pauses with a little vial held over a tall glass of Ogrino::
Tarrasque, there is definitely more to Maddie than what we’re seeing right now but does that entail knowledge of what Michael’s doing or his shady affairs? If she does, that would say a lot about her character as well as if she doesn’t know despite there being several clues. I can tell you that we will get a definitive answer on the future Mrs Welker.
LOL Amanda! Well, we know that Topher rented that because of the sizzle factor, not it’s practicality. And I always knew you heisted cars ala Gone in 60 seconds. XD
Maddie’s a pip! Interesting plot stuff there with Brooke. However, here’s an idea for the Aussie otherwise: suppose she gets badly beaten in a solo match, vows to become an actual wrestler, trains, and then goes head-to-head with her nemesis again? It’d be something I’d like to see…she needs an evolution.
Gone in 60 seconds? The original? I figured more like Dukes of Hazzard for her *ducks behind Albone!
Cookie Orge: set me up, buddy.
