Sabrina wouldn’t make a very good Jedi, would she? She’s got a lot of doubt about where she stands in the world but you could argue that instead of guessing, she’s asking direct questions. Hmmmm, what might the answer be?

Sharp eyed readers will notice that things are popping off in the ring by of way of the TV in the background. Not forgotten by a long shot and things seem to be relatively calm in the ring. O_o

Just might shed some light how Sun will react to that last question.

Quite the reversal there, eh? Sabrina was close to being out of her match with Xtina before it even started and now this. I think it’s safe to say that Sabrina is suitably fired up for her match, thanks to Marina. Maybe a little too much? Well, I think this shows that Sabrina still has Sun’s back, despite several false starts at reconciliation. One of those things that even though they may be fighting, they’ll still defend each other, which Marina has clearly picked up on and used to get the desired effect. It might not be the ideal state of mind but it certainly beats the emo-funk that she was tumbling down. Sabrina’s short temper isn’t exactly a secret. What do you think? And do you think Marina might have ‘embellished’ what ‘she heard?’ Laid it on a little thick, maybe?

Rival Angels Page 306-Focus

Rival Angels Page 306-Focus

Heh, can you believe that I actually cut a good 40% out of the original script? There’s a lot of explanatory copy here, but it’s for a good reason. I thought it’d be a good idea to remind old and new alike just what’s going on. I mean, it’s 306 pages over 23 months so a refresher might be okay.

Sabrina’s in desperate need of some focus and Marina is doing everything she can think of to do that. Sabrina’s going up against a great wrestler and fan favorite, in Xtina Carpenter. If she’s not focused, Xtina will beat the breaks off of her. And of course, Sabrina’s still caught up in her troubles with Sun and it doesn’t help that she just saw Krystin and Brooke lose tonight as well. Can Sabrina focus long enough to challenge Xtina and make it into the finals of the Television Tournament? Find out what Marina tries to do next on Monday!

If you want to find out what is on the TV in the background, it’s a commercial for the awesome webcomic, Marsh Rocket. You can specifically find the image from this page here. Rose is currently my favorite character from the series.  It’s a great, fun read and I definitely recommend it.   :D

Vote to get a clue as to what Marina might be saying to Sabrina to focus. ;)

Nothing like a little girl talk and Tom Cruise to get Sabrina’s mind off the day’s earlier events. And a few other things like some junk food and margaritas to help take some of that edge off. And its working! Sabrina was truly miserable last update so this is a bit of a turnaround, at least until she starts thinking about it again. Even though Sun’s not here, I did add a Lost-style Easter Egg for her. Can you find it? Actually, it’ll show up in print, but it’s too small on the interweb.  The Sun Easter Egg is that the girls are eating ‘Choco-Dip’ ice cream.  You may remember from the Sun origin chapter that it’s the place where she used to work.

I really love what Lora’s done here, showing the human side of the Upstart girls and its refreshing having girls act like girls. Plus, the end of this update sets up the next one so perfectly. Someone’s look might just get freshend up a bit. ;)

Funny tidbit: When I first read the bit about the song, ‘Take My Breath Away,’ I thought I never heard it before.  I couldn’t take it anymore and went to Youtube and recognized it after the first two seconds.  Duh.  I think Jessica Simpson covered it too. :P

Back at the Rookie House, and just as Brooke realizes the scope of the situation, an unidentified blonde person shows up.  Its a safe bet that it’s Sabrina, with the silhouette mirroring her mood and demeanor.

That’s for next update though.  This update we see Brooke and Krystin return victoriously from Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago.  The ladies did some damage too coming back with bags and bags of stuff.  Seems that Rival Angels payroll is paying off.  Anyone else own a Louis Vuitton clutch?

For those that don’t know about Chicago’s Magnificent Mile , an excerpt from Wikipedia:
Today, the area north of the Chicago River is referred to as the Magnificent Mile, or sometimes simply the Mag Mile. It contains a mixture of upscale department stores, restaurants, high-end retailers, office buildings and hotels, and caters primarily to tourists and the affluent.

Can you dig it?

Sharp eyed readers will be able to recognize the iconic image on the TV from The Dreamer . Sun has decided to spend her Saturday morning eating cereal and watching her favorite TV series.  Or is it a movie?  ;)   Either way, I’m a fan. ;)
