It is so sad seeing Abeille’s spirit crushed like that and at that moment. Amaryllis has problems. I have high hopes for Abeille’s “miner kid” friends. And Abeille has been resilient in the story. Sensitive and tenacious. She’s amazing.
Oh man, as someone who just got a tooth knocked out in a similar fashion, I sure as hell wish I could have been that nonchalant about it lol I’m just lucky my insurance paid for the majority of the replacement surgery.
I’m no mother, so I might be way off but… shouldn’t Amaryllis be a LITTLE worried to see blood on her daughter’s face ? I know that kids scratch themselves, and so do sportspeople, but reacting first to Abeille’s messy look before the obvious blood on her face is… even lower than what I expected from Amaryllis.
The comment on the miners, though, is par for the course when it comes to her. Of course she thinks she’s of a higher status than lowly workers…
I expect that with the advanced medical techniques, injuries are less worrisome to parents of the future. I mean, they can replace EYES with FUNCTIONAL custom-made ones. What is a minor bit of blood and missing tooth when the kid is smiling and clearly ok with the injury.
It’s an irritation more than a concern. (Yes, most parents would still be “are you ok?” But one of my own kids gets hurt so often that if he’s smiling after it, I don’t even react. Or I do get a little annoyed, like “I told you so.”)
I think those are the two team White Helmet players who went against Abeille and her team Blue Helmet in the last two pages. So maybe the red-haired one is annoyed that even playing so dirty, hitting so hard that she knocked Abeille’s tooth out, Abeille STILL got up & scored. So, perhaps something along the lines of, “oh that exasperatingly resiliant pink-haired female, how intensely I dislike her success, surely you must concede she is infuriating, do you not,” only with fewer syllables & more cusswords.
*sigh*
Lovely as ever.
On the upside: Abielle’s friend seems really sweet and she looks ADORABLE with her fluffed up hair <3
I think that’s the same friend that called Abeille to check up on her.
yep. parents can be so judgmental..and controlling, learning way too late that those tactics often lose them the love and respect of their children.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Again, I’m no mother, so I really appreciate it.
I wonder what those two people in the background of panel 1 are talking about.

well…way to suck all the fun out of her day, Mom. Great job. *slow clap*
I wonder why Abeille has huge hair on Pasque and not Monotropa, just like her father did when they arrived on Monotropa.
I was imagining it getting all frizzy from the heat of playing the game/being trapped in the helmet ^_^
From skating: if you don’t get the hair slick, you get the poof. There is no middle ground.
Maybe Monotropa has superior hair products~ 😛
They did have those bracelets to keep make up in place during rain season.
Ah, the timeless conversation. One of them, anyway.
