oh my fucking god leave sugar alone... anyway i love sugar, her face in the last panel is very familiar v_v (i also really like her expression in the 8th panel!)
also the amount of times ive heard "this/that one" in my own experiences...my blood is boiling :knife:
GOD @ karen honing in on sugar's arm soon after sugar talks out loud about HIPPA violations. the last panel of sugar's "the fuck?" expression, super solid!
and also gosh panel 6 with the speech bubble overlaps showing how the jerk nurses will talk over even each other is an excellent touch, to show what the workplace encourages
wow that deflection by the serval nurse when asked who's responsible for bringing kim over, and then trying to take it out on sugar for talking about HIPPA violations. HOO boy.
How can you tell if they're fresh, there's so much fur...
Also is that uhhh *snap snap* Lupe? I think that's her name? The 'green one'/mouse in the bg of panel 4? I remember seeing a reference for her ages ago but couldn't remember if she had shown up in the comic yet or not. :0
I remember being talked about like I can't hear it (or talking about their private stuff right over my head) and thinking "This must be how dogs feel, except dogs also feel loved if they are lucky."
And I bet the nurse is picking on Sugar pretty much because Sugar started criticizing the hospital.
Daaamn, that nurse acted real fucking quick when Sugar pointed out a possible violation. Makes me think that this isn't the first time a patient called them out on their bullshit, only to immediately go to damage control mode. Also the way the nurses dismissively talk/reference to their patients bothers me like, hjjfjj, I get their's a lot of people but they're just being rude.
Honestly I don't think those scars are new, recently in the sense she might've harmed herself BEFORE being admitted? Maybe, but don't think she harmed herself while staying here. This staff can fuck off lmao.
oh my god karen i see through your garbage and so does everyone in the comments section!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your coworker may not call you on your bullshit but i for one am ready to FITE YUO
wow what the hell karen.. audibly exclaimed when she pulled that power move on sugar, doesn't seem like she cares about adhering to hipaa if she can make sure she doesn't get caught by using lies & blackmail. i'm guessing the nurses can say, "this patient has new scars!" and no one actually double-checks.
i wonder if karen picks on sugar a lot... :^( wouldn't be surprised if she was reason sugar got put in the "Quiet Room"...
i feel like i can completely see timber-wolf-nurse and karen as like, real-life human nurses, which is very unfortunate but also speaks to how well they're written! i'm still blown away with how many characters this comic has & how all ov them are so defined.
ugh, the look on that nurses/doctors face in the second-to-last panel.... its so pretentious, it makes me mad!!! im not sure what it is about that face, but you can really tell she doesnt mean what shes saying at all, shes just doing it to get poor sugar to be quiet!!
Oof yea, Karen trying to cover her ass because she's the one who brought Kim over, of course she conveniently 'doesn't know' and is cutting off wolf nurse. Also is this the same wolf who gave kim the laced water? It looks like her..
Ugh, "this"/"that one" like they're objects or something... and that nurse definitely sounds like they're trying to get Sugar in trouble for daring to question them and point out that violation...
Ah shoot. Rereading this I just noticed a couple pages back Kysley mentions ECT making you forget. I’m assuming the likes of Karen would be more than happy to use that for some primo gaslighting.
I can’t be sure, but when the nurse “notices” scarring on Sugar’s wrist it looks like her ID bracelet got popped. I’m guessing she was hoping to make an addition or two with her claws when she grabbed Sugar’s wrist, but got the tag as well?

((also, is that a lupe i spy? :D))
Also MFW I started playing neopets again earlier this month and the word/name 'lupe' is awakening smth primal in me.
