Chapter 4-Page-24-She’s Just Not That Into You
Sep12
So…at least there’s no mistake how they feel about each other. Of course, one of them is the boss and one of them works for them. No chance of that getting sticky, eh?
(And that IS Yoshi in the last panel.)
Voting Incentive!
Time to get some air. Vote to see what’s coming up on Friday!
By curious coincidence, I was just talking today about an old acquaintance who used to throw around that word whenever he got rejected in pretty much the exact same way.
Sabrina chose the classy approach, which is never wrong. It’s just hard to do when you’re physically restrained. Words distracted him from keeping a grip, I guess? Nonetheless, good to see that resolved in a way that minimizes the fallout.
Violence should be avoid when it can be. I do believe if he had grabbed her again as she tried to leave all bets would have been off.
Of course it didn’t help him to have her raise her voice like that in a crowd.
Our little Ultragirl is growing up!
Mind you, I’d still supply the violence, if called on to do so. Avoiding it is a good general policy, but in the case of Atlas and people like him, I think of it sort of like scheduled maintenance.
Open a shop and we’ll bring our guys in for periodic tune ups 😀
Is yoshi exhibiting stalker behavior of what? They don’t know he’s there, but he’s always watching from the shadows, ready to pounce.
A good stalker knows how to stay out of sight and pounce when things line up.
As Brenda what happened to her unguarded bunny slippers.
Hmmmph! Still finding bits of plush too!
Everyone from the MWA/BRA comes to this place to unwind. He can be seen in the first panel of the last page being un-stalkery.
BRAVO! Again.
And I’ll raise you a Woo hoo!
I hear you!
W00T!
And after that…Atlas shrugged.
(Hey, you couldn’t expect me to wait and let somebody *else* make the pun, could you??)
Give him a break. He’s got the weight of the world on his shoulders. 🙂
ugh
LOLZ
He was in a bad spot. Now that Sabrina had raised her voice to express her displeasure she got the upper hand. Had he done anything more people would have stepped in.
For some reason a small girl vs a BIG guy turns out bad for the guy in a crowd. Someone will say “why don’t you pick on someone your own size.”
A big guy can do no right in American society some times. No matter what you do, it’s wrong to at least a faction of onlookers. Not that Assless here is at all in the right…
People shouldn’t jump to conclusions, I agree. Ideally you find out exactly what’s going on before taking sides.
Still, even if people jump to the wrong conclusion sometimes, their hearts are in the right place. I mean, it springs out of a basic desire to help out a complete stranger who seems to be in trouble. That’s a lot better, IMHO, than if the typical reaction was “Meh, it’s not my problem, so I’m gonna ignore it.”
Any guy that acts like a douche, especially dealing from a base of power (the boss) is always going to look bad.
Exactly. The boss has special considerations, and this jerk is using them to his advantage.
Getting Randy on us?
Ayn not sure about that.
A couple months back, as I was beginning my “Callista in Chicago” story, I noted the various people who seemed to have power in MWA/BRA, referring to Atlas as “he of the hungry eyes and the inability to recognize total disinterest”.
You should all take this opportunity to recognize my perceptiveness and general brilliance. 😀
Kicks Brenda in the back of her leg so she falls to her knees. Honor Callie for being so brilliant Brenda!
I like you!
Owwww Hey now!
Oh my! What big feet you have!
I’m glad that you had the foresight and I totally remember that bit!
Wow. That was fairly restrained for Brina! Notwithstanding The Look in panel #4. (Never seen that without being accompanied by an act of violence. :D) and nice bit of burn in panel #3.
Classy exit, too. She leaves with her dignity intact. Not sure about her career, but her dignity’s fine. 🙂
Well I don’t think he’d be dumb enough to go after her career but I am sure he will try to make her look dumb.
Sabrina has Matsamuto in her corner and even then, she’s always got Gabrielle, but Sabrina is someone who wants to solve her own problems.
And yeah, our little Sabrina is growing up and not punching first, asking questions later!
Way to go Sabrina…way to go. 😀
Our little girl is growing up.
🙂
If I was writing this, I’d demote Sabrina even further and have her driving across the US with a bunch of other ‘losers’ doing shows in tiny forgettable towns that sometimes aren’t even on the map.
Imagine driving across the US with a grumpy Bitsy, that nutcase catfighter, and maybe a few others.
Snickers, if you were writing this who’d draw it?
On the other hand, driving across Japan doing that would raise the coolness factor considerably.
Could do that too. The last time I heard, Japan has plenty of itty-bitty towns too. Here, Americana has kind of dried up and blown away. Most of the old wayside attractions are simply gone. In Japan, there’s places that are institutions.
I could see that. The BRA ladies only get 30 minutes a week as it is.
Of course it’s Yoshi there in the last 2 pages. He’s always lurking, watching, waiting for a convenient time to “bump in” to people.
Good thing that Sabrina isn’t crying and vulnerable or Yoshi might have gotten a date out of it.
He’s got it bad for blonde ultragirls.
Well at least she was able to get away without having to attack him. I’m pretty sure that she’s tough enough though in a fight that she could kick his ass. I just wouldn’t want to see the consequences afterwards. Go get some air Sabrina, and look out for that stalker Yoshi. lol
Sabrina is a tough cookie and I think she showed a lot of that here. Maybe Yoshi or someone else will join her on the balcony?
You tell him, Sabrina!
Right on!
somehow i see Yoshi and a second drink joining brina in the next update. with a possible accidental cutting off of a certain someone just before he reaches the stairs. “oops sorry Atlas didn;t see you there- just going to get some fresh air, see you later boss.” thrown in beforehand.
or going by the VI a sudden shout from behind Brina “YOU ARE MY ENEMY! PREPARE TO DIE! YAAAAAAA!” and the sound of rushing footsteps then Brina leaps into the air above a lunging Atlas who falls off the edge to a nigh certain doom “NOOOOOOOOO!”
<cue Atlas’ return 50 updates later> “so you think we were finished Ultragirl? ” <twirls moustache evilly> “But Atlas! you should be dead! No one could have survived that fall!” <more mustache twirling>
Dude, that is just awesome…and you certainly figured Atlas out. XD
I dunno. He kinda bears a resemblance to Ming…
Got to love the one word at a time in panel #4.
Slow things down for the mentally challenged.
Yeah, she wanted to be crystal clear and I think she got through.
I’m calling it: 9v1 match, girl who gets the pin gets number one contendership for the woman’s championship. This backfires on Atlas in the obvious way, leaving Sabrina to challenge for the championship! Then, when she finally gets it, Rival Angels calls her back and she has to either forfeit the belt and make BRA look bad or continue to fight for Atlas. =P
Okay, probably not. I like Brina’s comeback.
It’s not bad. Reaching a little bit, but not bad. Can you imagine if Sabrina never went back to Rival Angels?
Hmmmm, words. Good choice. A kick to the pills might have confused the guy into thinking you were still interested, and playing hard to get.
Man, do you know Atlas or what?? XD
Just keep that head held high, Sabby… even when Atlas books you in the worst possible matches for the next few months as payback.
That Bra and Panties match is looking enticing to Atlas all of a sudden. (A suggestion that the Mrs made. !!)
Nice going, Sabrina. Albone, get me in touch with the bookers over there. I’m throwing down the gauntlet, Sabrina Mancini and Donny Icarus vs Atlas McNair and Neko!
Dude…main event. PPV main event.
Why not book the next PPV after that with Atlas vs Blitz in a Street Fight?
If Atlas could get another dude to support him, I think we’d have to have a conversation about some tag team work, Donny. You’re a high-flyer, and I favor power techniques, so I think we could have a sort of Heaven and Earth thing going on.
Atlas would make Ian be his tag partner. 😉
Panel four = pure 200 proof awesome. 😀
XD
Never noticed it before, but Sabrina kinda looks like Michelle McCool in panel 1.
Aw, Sabrina would totally take that as a compliment (no she wouldn’t!). XD
dunno. Mccool’s (now layla’s) “you’re not enough for me” theme music would be kinda appropriate for this update….
