In Matt's defense:
He doesn't know that Star is "new" to this and still trying to come to terms with herself.
Also, as her superior, he also now knows that she disobeyed orders, of which the legitimacy COULD be argued, I'll grant you that.
For all we know, he was trying to push some of her buttons while somehow, awkwardly and pretty badly mind you, trying to teach her a lesson about how she's been behaving (remember: she was punished with weekend duties exactly BECAUSE of her lousy work ethics, and here she is, not at work).
If we recall, Matt did say that the report she'd written impressed the VIPs, despite her lateness, and he's the one whom argued against her being commended for it because she can't be relied on.
And an unreliable soldier is not a soldier you want to have in your unit. Because when the lead flies and lives are on the line, you need to know that you can count on every soldier in your unit, not just some of them. And, as her superior, it's Matt's job to make sure that she learns that and changes accordingly.
From his perspective, here is a corporal that shows a LOT of promise, but has critical flaws that need addressed before she can be pushed forward. And, frankly, I cannot blame him.
Was his way of approaching things and insinuating he would treat Star as a baby at work the right thing to do? Oh, heck no. He crossed a major line, there. You don't bring this sort of stuff in any work environment, military or otherwise. But, still, he does have somewhat of a point. Star, as a member of the armed forces, hasn't been acting proper and as her sergeant, it's his job to get her to shape up.
He just went a bit too far with his comment, IMO. And now, they're going to clash.
And eventually, hug and make up and Star will have found a new daddy playmate. And will shape up in her "adult" life as well. Because everyone loves happy endings.

You bring up some points worth considering, though I think we can agree if he felt the need to broach the subject at all, he should have communicated WAY better with her than he did, and outside the realm of role play. The way he’s been talking, he could be planning to destroy star’s future for all she knew.
Adding to that "treating Star as a baby at work" thing: Normal etiquette at a play party is to not talk about who you saw there outside of circles, especially at work or in public. Like that'd be a big nono if he used this to start treating her a way at work and it's a really quick way to end up blacklisted from what I know.
Eager? Nah.
I just believe that there is more to this guy than we think and/or have seen so far.
Has he went too far with this? Oh, abso-effing-lutely. There's no denying that.
However, there is something to be said about having to deal with individuals whom do not do what they're told, find ways to skirt around tasks and somehow never learn their lessons. Until you've had to deal with someone of this persuasion yourself In Real Life™, you can't help but see people in position of responsibility as asses and power-hungry. I've been there.
But then, I was on the other side and boy-oh-boy does the view changes.
You suddenly have to deal with an individual that threatens, in military jargon since she's in the military, "unit cohesion" and "unit effectiveness". Not just that, but you regularly have to deal with late or missing work, and scramble to fix it if not yourself, then find someone who can without affecting THEIR tasks as well. It's a whole lot of work to just have things done as close to "in time" as possible with as little repercussions as possible. And while something of this sort happening on a rare basis is understandable, repeated offenses are a thing that you have to deal with, thus increasing further and further your need to spend yet more time dealing with this individual.
So why am I defending him?
Because I personally know where he's coming from. I understand what he's trying to do, trying to say here. But I also have to admit that he's doing it very wrong. And that's just not acceptable.

I completely agree with the sentiment there. My husband is a marine, and the one major thing they absolutely DO NOT tolerate in the marine corps is lateness or even a hint of laziness at work. As her superior, it really is his job to make sure that she's being held up to par for her rank; otherwise it could drag everyone down (that's their mentality anyway). So seeing someone make a dickish comment about her new hobby isn't anything new, military people are kind of dicks in general when it comes to work stuff.
Being into baby things though, at least outside of work, is something no one would bat an eye at though. Sure a few people might find it kind of strange, but so long as you're not hurting anyone, marines could give less of a shit really. You'd be surprised about what people do outside of work in general, the military being no exception.

While I can see your point regarding their work relationship....his behavior is absolutely unacceptable and inappropriate. You do not under any circumstances even casually joke about outing someone in this community unless that is part of your personal prearranged play. Keep in mind what he is essentially threatening her with. He's threatening not only her career and her whole future, but also to potentially damage any non abdl relationships she has. If this were my party he would be told to leave and not to come back with the understanding that if he did out anyone, he could expect the same treatment in return.
It's a shame he crossed the line and start involving work with this.
Don't get me wrong - Star did screw up by not doing her "punishment", which to me seems more and more as a way for our Sergeant friend here to somehow get his weekend free so he could attend this party, and less about actually teaching Star a lesson. KP would probably have been even better a punishment. Or maybe fetch a yard of shoreline. Oh, wait, nope.
How about a bucket of prop wash?
Oh, wait, she's army...
Maybe have Star fetch a box of grid squares.
Or get the key to the parade ground.
How about being given a ballpeen hammer and chalk and told to look for weak spot on the tanks' armor?
She might also have been asked to find a light artillery gun silencer.
Or in order to get ready for a training operation, find a BFA (Blank Firing Adapter) for a underbarrel grenade launcher.
There are plenty of other things, I'm sure...

Indeed, but that's besides the point I was trying to make.
Basically, by forcing Star to take up his duty for the weekend, Matt made a lower-ranked officer potentially in charge of people of similar rank as her, which COULD cause issues thanks to the beautiful thing called "Chain of Command".
Also, depending on the tasks that he was to accomplish, she might not have had the authority or knowledge to fulfill his duties in his stead.
A snipe hunt would've been a better lesson for her I believe; she'd have wasted time doing something completely useless (seriously, try getting a bucket of prop wash. Good luck.) and then, he could have simply told her that she was late in the rest of her duties, chewing her out about the importance of being on time and not wasting your time or someone else's, and how she was still on the hook for every other task/duty she had to accomplish on that shift, yadda yadda...
So, while she obviously disobeyed his order to take over his duty for the weekend, one could easily argue that this order was given in order for Matt to weasel himself out of his own duties to go to this party. In which case, Star could "bring him down with her" if anything transpired at work, or vice-versa.
They are, essentially, in quite the stalemate here, as far as their profession goes. Matt doesn't want his involvement in the ABDL to be known, as much as Star doesn't either. And both now have serious ammunition against the other regarding this. So, it would be in both of their best interest to agree that this kink/interest they share should never be brought out at work.

Not sure how it works in the other Branches of the military? (I have to presume it's the same, but...)
In the Corps., we often had NCO's of the same rank. Who was in 'Charge' was whoever had seniority/got their rank, first.
IF a subordinate NCO were put in charge? It was the obligation of the 'Senior' NCO's to do their duty as instructed, to maintain Order and Respect for the Chain-of-Command/Orders. Did this mean things always worked smoothly? Hell no! lol Perfect on paper is not the same thing as in the field. LOTS of subordinates were taught serious command/respect lessons by this method.

"If star were in the Canadian forces and so much as whispered to a harassment officer that marellis was threatening to use her personal life against her at work he would be fucking pinned to the wall for it. that shit super don't fly."
As it should, really. Though I'll hazard a guess and say this is a OP HONOR kind of deal?
However, I still don't think that giving Star additional duties is the right path to teach her a lesson. While, by the books, it is not an issue, I find it to be a weak way to try and teach her discipline.
Putting her in a situation where, for instance, being on time and fast at a task, such as working with cooks, would probably have been a better punishment. There would have been immediate demonstration of how much a single individual not being there on time or slacking off can affect an entire unit.
While there is wisdom in making her potentially experience her actions through the burden of command (I don't think we were ever told what his duties were other than "surveillance", which could be a number of things I guess?), I just believe it is a very risky gamble with someone who's apparently been chewed up repeatedly about the same topics... But anyway, that's me. X3

U.K. military is a lot different than the U.S. military. I think Star, as a Corporal is about an E-3 or E-4 in the U.S. military, but takes 6-8 years to earn that rank. I looked this up some time ago. So, she's been around for a while, and the other 'punishments' you suggested would be old hat to her by now.
No, she earned the punishment she got, and had she not already been invited to the party, she would have taken it without consideration. Also, IMHO, Marellis was justified in giving it to her, the old phrase RHIP, or as you should be aware, Rank Has Its Privileges.
I don't think he crossed the line by involving work in it. He was being sarcastic in the way he was doing it, which might not have been the best way to approach it, but he DID just see her getting spanked once, maybe he was looking for a way to spank her again, only this time, he would administer it. I'm sure there were days at work before he knew about this part of her that he had wanted to do it.

He might. I think Star looks up to, or did look up, Marellis kind of as a father figure, since she was the only girl in the family. Remember her story about the birthday party, and when her Dad got home. She craves a father figure, and in her mind, Marellis might have been it. Where it goes from here, I don't know.
I think, as I said elsewhere, that Marellis will looks surprised, confused, thoughtful and then burst into laughter and hug her tight. I hope so, anyway. She'll be confused beyond belief.

I think he already set a bad tone for himself by starting out with a name she hates going by. Plus bringing work into it isn't really okay. A lot of us would get annoyed at the suggestion. Basically, he's flirting with the idea of not just using borrowed authority as a caregiver at the moment and adding in his work authority off hours which, even though he's military and I guess there's not really much in the way of "off handed," is still pretty underhanded.
So many feelings to type out. So many ideas of which way and how this goes. I'm just sitting back and waiting with excitement to see the next set when they come out (NO PRESSURE STAR!)
Oh, also I will gladly start the chainsaw should Star find it too difficult with her padded paws. With all due respect, of course.

...Just a heads-up: if this is going where I think it's going, and Star gets in trouble with her caretaker for grownup-talking, swearing, growling, being 'disrespectful', etc., while this smarmy douchebag gets away scot-free looking like a perfect angel in the others' eyes... I'm probably going to drop this comic like it's on fire, perhaps even unfollow you so further Star Torture won't pop up in my inbox. I DESPISE situations like that, and have stopped reading comics or watching shows when that plot shows up.
It is a little narative tool known as conflict. It builds something known as tenson. IF this comic was nothing but star winning and nothing bad ever happening ever and everything going her way. then that would be boring as figgity fuck. this is not tourture. this is writing. and pretty good writing at that.
Just to let you know, it's pretty cool to me that I've invoked feelings in you, strong enough feelings that you're willing to discuss with me here. I'm not giving the plot away but if this makes you feel uncomfortable it's because it IS uncomfortable. Every story needs an antagonist and not all stories are filled with sunshine and roses. Star has a lot of exploring to do and I promise it'll all be worth it in the end.
I can't blame Star for doing this really.. Matt took it too far. I know he may have been doing this in jest but even that takes the cake. You should NEVER break anyone out of little space. He crossed the line. That is how I feel about this. Manda and Tessa probably won't punish her for this. More like Matt will get something.
Matt... No offense to you character but that is a low blow.

dammit Star you just made this a thousand times worst. all you had to do was wait for manda to come back. You could have at least told him to fuck himself in a better manner.
I would have said something like "blackmail is unbecoming of a superior officer" or "It is against military conduct to threaten one of your lower ranking officers, Sir"

Not to mention it's not the fact that he's teasing, but the fact of how he is teasing her and with what he is teasing her with.
1.) He's using her proper name which is a no go at this event and a no go in the community IRL.
2.) Even if he's just playing the role, he shouldn't have crossed the line talk to star about work. Another rule broken, not yo mention a complete lost of trust in your CO, who only.needed to say nothing.
3.) "Matt" was only given temporary permission to watch Star. Not anything else. He is breaking a major rule even if Amanda just considers Star Lure's friend. He is , hopefully unknowingly, forcing his role on Star while she is under Amanda's care. Consider it like if your kid was being fussed at or teased by some adult other than you. Your be pissed as all Hell and with every right to be so. If it's not your kid don't screw with them. It works the same way in the community; don't mess with a flock that's not yours.
4.) Both officers are not only off clock but off base, and essentially have lesve/ weekend liberty (My apologies to any armed forces members if I sound like I'm seaking out of my ass; my jargon only comes from what I pi ked up in boot camp style summer program. No disrespect intended, much love and support for our vets/troops/officers everyone.). No one, not Star or Matt have any proof that the other was here. Nor should either break the santicity of secrecy when it comes to this kink/lifestyle, but even if it was just a joke, it's not something to joke about. Especially not with military personnel. A very good friend of mine that was a Marine, he and his wife did for me what Manda and Lure did for Star, lost everything because someone found his Ferlife account and shared it around the group. He saved someone their lives and when they found this secret he was nothing more to them than a freak. They had to leave the state to get away from the harassment, and Matt is putting Star in that same position, whether he meant to or not.
This is way everyone is glaring at Matt right now. He's putting Star in a very bad place, taken her out of headspace, used her real name, and forced a role on someone who clearly did not want it. He is breaking every rule in this social contract of the lifestyle and this event attended.

Wow, I've never seen you so pissed off so much Star!
But I better watch your back Star. That's your superior you're trash talking to!
Also, did Manda warned you about speaking one word or you'll be punished?
You're in real deep deep sludge, little girl!
But I did like the way you spat the paci right into your superior's face! That jerk deserved it!!

Yeah, I want to see her explanation to Manda, Tessa, Lure and Flare about this one. Marellis DID look a bit surprised. Her reaction, however, is not what I expected.
Next page, Marellis will look at her slightly confused, then thoughtful, and then he'll break out laughing like crazy and give Star a big hug! Star won't have a clue what to do with that.

Honestly I pray that yiur right.
If I may toss my prediction in with two cents for admission;
Manda will have heard Star's last words. Manda is not idiot, she's going to ask what's wrong when she sees both their faces red with anger. Star request "Tadpole" in order to deal with Matt, and explain to Manda what just happened. Matt has no dog in his fight and if he's lucky will get off with just a tounge lashing from Manda and not thrown out due to there history. Manda will take Star away for a minute to cool her down and try to get her back in the headspace but ultimately will be unsuccessful because of Matt knowing what he knows.
Later pages will eventually show success in regression but it won't be a full state again until Matt either apologizes, or confronts Star on base.
Like I said I pray your prediction is right, and God do I hope I'm more wrong than a dead baby joke.

damn that was legit!!!! I hate to think how this will affect Star, i dont think she should get in trouble with manda or tessa. I am actually very upset with his unprofessionalism. I mean im not trying to read too much into this as I knew Star is just trying to tell us a story but i sadly see a couple things happening, either Star is gonna be so mad beyond repair and we are gonna move on to the next part of the story or Manda is gonna over unfortunately chastise Star and Star wont explain what happened because she is proud. Or Manda will find out and she is not gonna be happy either
Oh wow this could get VERY ugly. I think stars response was correct but it may still come back to bite her. It really depends on how involved Matt is in this lifestyle, He went way over the line with star and if he does retaliate within regular adult life nobody in that scene will ever associate with him again let alone invite him to another function. So his only choice now is to either forget any of this ever happened and act as though Star was in the office doing her work or he and Star would have to discuss these events and figure something out at the party. Though I don’t think Star is in a speaking mood so Manda will more than likely have to get involved and honestly I predict both Star and Matt will be getting some type of punishment. Matt for breaking one of the biggest rules in the kink lifestyle and Star for ditching work.
nuuuuu this will bug me till the next episode of "as the world burns"....
Seriously though... it's something i have a hard time with knowing where the boundary between teasing and... well.. that is... so even with people who really like to be bullied i tend to be over cautious...
I think a lot of it falls under a philosophy I've developed... The "top" isn't a place of power. In a lot of ways it's just as much a place of submission... Your job is largely to help your little or sub play out their fantasy.. best match is when the top's fantasy and the bottom's fantasy largely matches.. if you drag someone out of their little space, you've done it very badly wrong...
In this kind of awkward scenario, the correct action would have likely been to have had one of her friends introduce you, acknowledge that you know each other from work, make it clear that under no circumstances would you discuss your mutual attendance to this kind of party without their direct permission, and respectfully request that sentiment to be reciprocal, and let them know if they'd like to talk, that you will be around and will make time if they want to have a conversation, but that you are temporarily blind if they'd rather not interact with you. It is NOT okay to simply insert your self into their roleplay as if knowing them gives you a right to be involved with their fantasy world. Especially someone who has legitimate power over you in the real world setting, this is not the way you approach someone who you know, and know wasn't expecting to see you there.
Seriously though... it's something i have a hard time with knowing where the boundary between teasing and... well.. that is... so even with people who really like to be bullied i tend to be over cautious...
I think a lot of it falls under a philosophy I've developed... The "top" isn't a place of power. In a lot of ways it's just as much a place of submission... Your job is largely to help your little or sub play out their fantasy.. best match is when the top's fantasy and the bottom's fantasy largely matches.. if you drag someone out of their little space, you've done it very badly wrong...
In this kind of awkward scenario, the correct action would have likely been to have had one of her friends introduce you, acknowledge that you know each other from work, make it clear that under no circumstances would you discuss your mutual attendance to this kind of party without their direct permission, and respectfully request that sentiment to be reciprocal, and let them know if they'd like to talk, that you will be around and will make time if they want to have a conversation, but that you are temporarily blind if they'd rather not interact with you.

That I am aware of there are two acronyms taught within the kink community for proper play and how we avoid killing ourselves. SSC (Safe, Sane, and Consensual) and RACK (Risk Aware Consensual Kink) I tend to prefer the latter one as lets face it much of wha we do in BDSM is arguably not "safe" and if one can argue the safety of an activity then one could further argue the Sanity of the individual doing it so to me SSC starts falling apart when you carefully examine things. RACK on the other hand can waistband the scrutiny so both the doer and those onlooking can carefully apply it without feeling like it just shows kinksters are nuts and should be locked up. One studies the risks of any activity you wish to engage in until both parties are aware then you engage in consensual kink.
I could be mistaken but I don't think their is any way to control the risk of fucking a chainsaw once, let alone repeatedly. Although the kink community might be better off if Matt complied ;)

Thank you for the explanation. Since I'm not involved in a BDSM community, or actively engaged in any type of BDSM play I guess I wouldn't have come across that. Since I have a very active gag reflex, and also sometimes have saliva go down the 'wrong tube', things like bondage, mummification, etc., scare the hell out of me. I need to be able to move quickly to a position, or several positions, where I can clear my throat or windpipe.
So, considering the risks to me involved in that, I would not consent to many types of B and D scenarios. Not to mention it's not my kind of kink anyway.

Actually, I was in the store recently, and I found Root Beer float popsicles, vanilla ice cream with a root beer flavored coating. Ultra yummy in this hot weather we're having, and I have bought like three boxes of them now. But, today, I also bought some vanilla ice cream and some root beer and made a real float.
Delish!
Maybe if Star had one in her baba, should wouldn't have been so upset with 'Unka Matty!' LOL

While I don't like what Star just said and believe that it will have SERIOUS repercussions, like getting kicked out of the party, (she does have several strikes and is very new to the part) I do trust that you have a goal in mind and am wondering how this will end.
Star's reaction does seem like it was too much. (I understand that it is your character and you know her best, and will respect that)

Oh so much YES! I was hoping for that reaction.
Star is a strong woman and I'm glad that you
made her speak up for herself. Matt was really
crossing the line between teasing and being
a complete dick so this very clear message
from star was more than necessary to draw
the line with no safeword required. I could've
also imagined her to say something like
"What the actual f*ck is wrong with you?"
But this is much much better to get the point
across. X3
Thank you for cranking out these three pages
leading up to this very intense moment. ^.^

I don't think Matt should have pulled rank here.
What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas...and Star should have to face the music on monday.
But maybe after her outburst, Matt realizes that he crossed the line and they can hash it out before Manda comes back and they pretend nothing happened

My two cents: given the fact this guy is at a play party AND Manda respects him enough to leave a newbie like Star with him (clearly knows him by calling him Matt), he is just teasing. That said I think he has unknowingly crossed a line given his professional relationship with Star, who herself isn't comfortable enough with this world to recognize that. My hope going forward is simply a cute reconciliation and nobody is punished. As sleazy as he may seem, put in his situation it might be hard to miss the opportunity to frazzle a coworker if you are in the context of a fun fetish party. At the moment I think there is a fine line of fair assumptions being walked right now and in the end I hope everyone comes out the other side understanding one another.
That last line brings me back to the Boondock Saints 2.
Eunice Bloom: "with all due respect, man I hate that phrase, because it is inevitably followed by a disrespectful remark. Let me give you an example: with all due respect, detective, this matter, falls under whatever jurisdiction I fucking say it does."

They both broke the rules, and in big ways, I can understand why Star did but I don't think it makes any difference. The party is over for Matt, Star, and Star's sponsors, and there may not be any future parties for Matt and Star, at least if this is halfway close to realistic, which really bums me out a lot.
I don't know if it'd be easy, in character or even make sense to do it but screaming "TADPOLE" as loud as possible in his face and saying a lot quieter, "I suppose now you don't have to tell Manda I talked, she knows, Sir, now please back the **** up." might have been a better way to handle it without screwing things up for Star.
But I think Manda was in the wrong here, she knows Matt and Star separately, but at no point did she ask Star "is it okay or do we need to find...." Star may be in little space she may be owned and being punished but being left with anyone rather than someone she knows that should have consent attached.
I am eager to know where this goes just so this element of the story is over and not stressing me out or upsetting me because the internal conflicts of the comic made sense to me I've been through them as a little and a big but this external one... it's broken my enjoyment of the comic, I understand conflict is needed or necessary for good stories and there was the inevitable conflict between Star's two sides coming but this? Any story of people acting like Matt makes me not want to go to meets like this one just in case I know someone there, people should know better, Matt should know better, Star could have acted better. And this bad experience being handled badly in a popular comic, well it's putting me off as someone who's been to a few meets, it's surely going to put off first-timers more so, especially as this so far might have been a guide to how to successfully attend your first meet, and now bad example set.

I should explain that this really shouldnt be used as a guide on how to successfully attend your first meet unless you use it in parts, like take it and discuss it like we are doing here. Saying "look this is all wrong and heres why" thats healthy discussion. Theres bit in this comic where stuff breaks the rules Like these pages deliberately to show that some folk dont respect boundaries, some folk can be predatorial and in things for personal gain. im not trying to scare anyone away from the scene just trying to portray it realistically,
Thing is. Star is way out of her depth with a bunch of folk she's only just met, the truth of the situation being that when I was in stars shoes....I probably should have ended up dead in a ditch somewhere, I did dumb things and placed trust in people I barely knew and expected them to keep me safe. For the most part this held true and fun was had. But in other instances bad stuff happened. I want to show that bad stuff can happen, yes its stressful and alarming and stomach churning and im sorry that its ruined your enjoyment of the comic but often you have to go thru bad experiences to learn the right ways of doing things and learn how to protect yourself. I hope that by showing star going through some bad stuff it can open up dialogues on how things could have been approached better and avoided.

I totally understand it wasn't your intention to write a guide to a first meet, and that there's a huge gap between what Star is getting and what most people actually experience but you've written a story that up to now has been that fantasy and breaking it, at least for me, was hugely jarring.
And that's not in any way your fault you wrote the story I know before you drew the first page of the comic (as I understand it)
You set up expectations over 200 pages and years and tore them down in 3 pages that you posted all together you've certainly sparked a "who was wrong" conversation in your comments but I've been talking too with my friends about your comic and what the situation is and how we might handle it in various ways all day, you've generated a lot of talk.
I have never had a bad meet experience (though I may have given off bad vibes to others and made their experiences worse, I'm always worried about that) but I think I've never had a bad experience cause I've always been joining groups of people I've trusted and met online over a long time not jumping in after a 10 second conversation and there are means and ways of mitigating the whole people being fake like video chats meeting first in public, finding people you trust to take you along to places they've been etc but Shine inadvertently covers some of that
I'm a lot less upset 12 hours after reading it and I will continue to read but I felt this was more entertainment fantasy than heavy drama from the tone you've set out so far. You ruined my day maybe but I hope to keep enjoying the comic long term.
And last but by no means least, SUPER THANKS you didn't have to reply to me personally and it's fantastic that you took the time not only to read but to give such a great explanation of your own experiences,

I agree they both crossed the line. (Though, I'm assuming that with "Matt" speaking so freely and that there was just an aftercare scene going on, that no one is really nearby so Star.) It definitely would have been better for Star to have safeworded but I think she probably forgot about it being an option.
I agree that Manda should have checked with Star to see if she was okay with being with "Matt" since she's still so new. From my experience, though, a lot of the caregivers end up just kinda helping each other out. So Manda may have forgotten to even think of it. Not an excuse, just a reasoning for her behavior. She also didn't have any idea that Star would be uncomfortable with anyone there or even knew anyone there at all.
As for them getting kicked out, I don't think that'd be the case. Though this is a private play party so it would depend on how strict the hosts are. But, if it were brought to their attention, they'd probably get a severe warning. Matt probably more so for bringing work into it.

The party being over for them doesn't mean they will be kicked out but a severe warning or a talking to by the organisers or any one of a number of things will also ruin their mood and likely mood to interact for the rest of the party, even if they aren't asked to leave they may want to leave the situation and regroup after the ordeal.
I'll take your word for that in general, I've only been to a few meets and newbies have tended to pair off with experienced people and the experienced people attempt to build a lot of trust so the newbie doesn't get lost or left without anyone they can ask for advice without it feeling awkward and have tended to put the newbie first even over say, boyfriends and girlfriends, because everyone in my groups has known the hardships of being new to the group and how hard those first baby steps can be. Not every group may be like that but I really liked that mine have been.

Maybe a buddy system is something all groups should do for newbies, you could suggest it to yours, the most experienced 50% of a group share the load of caring for the one or two newbies to each party so no one person is buddying up as the experienced member every party and everyone gets a chance to have a good time over the several events each year but at the same time no newbie feels isolated and hopefully the group grows.
And in a buddy system it's not like you have to pair up carers and littles and leave your carer pool depleted, little little buddies can happen and lead to some cute interactions (so long as the experienced little doesn't find themselves easily stuck in little space while they're being big brother/sister to the newbie) and new carers getting the full apprentice experience shadowing more experienced carers is super useful.

well snap since she seen him that means he's into the kink and star has something to hold over his head but on the flip side he has something he can hold over her head it's a catch 22 nither can act against eachother ie. letting it slip without at work without revealing the truth abouth themselves so he can't actally tell anyone that she's ABDL nither can star tell anyone he's ABDL
Well, he took it too far, I hope he realized that^^
I'm kinda like that too, I get lost in the moment, but I don't think that is something an honest apology can't fix^^
I just hope Star doesn't get in trouble for that. If Manda heard that and is back already she can change diapers faster than her shadow^^

Um hey just how I see this, I think that last panel could have been handled better. I feel like a simple fuck you would have been better. I only say this, because the bit with the chainsaw isn't somthing someone would say after an event like this. Secondly it adds somthing comical to a situation that is meant to be something dremattic. Just how I see this, no hate is meant just trying to be constructive.
Then again we, the viewer, are missing some puzzle pieces.

i did think carefully about the words I chose there, see Star swears quite a lot so as she casually throws fucks around without much gravitas i didnt think a simple fuck would work here. it needed to be more severe, albeit with a comical twist. But I can totally see where you're coming from.
I just feel like this was the time to be dramatic, given how emotional the last few pages were. I still think fuck would have fit slightly better given a tone that was just really sincere.
Side note I think this comes down to writing style differences, so let's just agree to disagree.

I don't usually comment. I'm kind of lurker that way. However....he's pissing me off.
One of the big staples of ABDL, which Manda has so far done a great job of emphasizing, is that it's safe, and it's not real. It doesn't make you a freak, and nobody is going to blab to the world what a wierdo you are and thereby ruin your social life.
As someone in a caregiver role, there's a certain amount of trust that you have to be worthy of. By threatening, even if he's not serious, to abuse his real-life authority and give her hell for being at this party, he takes a massive shit on that trust.
He's crossed a line. And he hasn't tiptoed over it, he's taken a freaking pole vault over it. If Manda and the others at the party don't immediately eject him from the party and seriously consider ejecting him from the community as a whole before he abuses anyone else's trust for his own jollies, they'll be badly in error.
His behavior in the last couple scenes is in very real danger of freaking Star the fuck out, and pushing her away from the ABDL community and right back into the closet from whence she came. Which ain't right.
TL/DR: He's an insensitive dick and someone should shove a foot up his ass.

I don’t partake in this community as such but the comic is entertaining to read, my understanding if nothing is is he shouldn’t have pulled rank in a non work setting, naturally Star being new to this and then essentially forced upon her CO should have been considered a bad idea from the get go, especially when he’s clearly such a dick with how he’s speaking to her,it could be said she handled it wrong to but it’s a high stress situation and his comments and attitude have forced her adult side out, no person should be pushed so far and the person whom is responsible shouldn’t be surprised if they snap back regardless of there setting around them.
At this point it’s probably best Star does return home just to get her head together and calm down likewise he should be should be spoken to when she’s left whoever oversees Adults/Careers (sorry I don’t know much about the ranking and such of ABDL) and at least somewhat punished in the way they see fit and in future parties she should not be placed with him in the event he does this again, although likewise he is her CO outside of this party so even if he doesn’t bring up the ABDL thing knowing full well it would also spread he was into it as well as Star he does have the authority to still punish her under the ruling she was just AWOL on her duties that he cannot be sure where she was supposingly though he can confirm she was definitely not doing the tasks.
I suspect that working alongside him is going to be super strained at this point for Star assuming she doesn’t ask to be reassigned to another CO or duties if that’s possible at all.

It really depends on the community I've got friends in several different communities
There's one with an organisation team of "staff" both little and big that kinda get up the regular meets and they're in charge and there to help and the bigs and littles have their own enjoyment time outside the events they host for others
One was based purely on seniority, the longer you've been regularly attending the more people will see you as more experienced than them and defer to your wisdom
One is a social group with no hierarchy like that a group of 20 people and no one is actually in charge only 10 or so gather at a time and usually at one another's houses but its rare they invite new members
And then there's one that seems a lot like this group where it's organised and sometimes at someone's house and there are a lot of people and new people come every time pretty freely and ultimately the person or people in charge are those that own the house or are renting the venue.
As for etiquette again it depends on the group and the people in it in my groups the person who'd be in the most trouble here is Manda or Teca/Tessa, regardless of the actual incident Manda was Star's buddy she should introduce people and be aware of the dynamics and there to make sure her newbie buddy is getting the best possible first experience. Most people would then say Matt was in the wrong he shouldn't have talked work at a party and he shouldn't have threatened to let the secret out, what happens at a party stays at a party, who you met and what they're into is almost sacrosanct. But actually if he was talking quietly and putting on a sweet attitude what he said might not have been over heard and might seem innocuous to an observer and so Star's outburst which was loud and adult is likely to have caused the largest disruption and would require some outside of kink punishment, her crimes severity likely based on how many littles were shocked out of little space into full adult mode
Punishments again vary but I'd think the party is over for them and Star's sponsors. Even if they just get a telling off and kitchen duty washing and refilling bottles because the event was so upsetting allowing them to return to the party as though nothing happened is likely not possible it'd screw up the little space for everyone else and likely Star can't get back there now anyway.
I don't know about work but she did get someone else to cover her shift and duties, even if his intention was for those duties to be a punishment for her unless he said that explicitly she's probably within her rights to trade them. He can't even claim she's AWOL I don't think because she lives off base (at least that's how I interpreted her room mate not being military) and so her free time is her own. But blackmailing the secret is one thing publicly outing someone is likely going to get you blacklisted from any similar event because no-one wants that risk.

Thanks for the info, as I said I don’t really dabble in this scene but wouldn’t judge others for partaking in it either, personal kinks and alll that I prefer girls in there panties than a diaper but this comic does give interesting insight to what would normally be an unknown scene to me, lord knows an escape from adult responsibility even the non kink ABDL must be stress relieving and the amount of debt and responsibilities I have in life it’d be nice to just think screw them for a weekend but that’s what I use breaks away to conventions for or seeing as I’m transgender presenting at weekends with my Brony group can also do the trick as I can at least live as my preferred gender for that briefv liberating moment.
Yeah I get that.
There's a not insignificant number of trans folk in the community and that the sissy culture is huge here doesn't surprise me but it cuts both ways, if a trans person doesn't like their junk simply hiding it and having someone else deal with the accidents can be freedom, a number of my DL friends got into the scene that way.
There's also a broad spectrum between AB, DL and ageplay and it sounds like while the baby side doesn't fit you and maybe diapers don't fit you ageplay does. Being 10 or 12 again without the downsides of toddlers or diapers but with loving caring support and all the freedom you want to enjoy some kids shows. With this clear boundary between you playing and any adult responsibilities.
There's a not insignificant number of trans folk in the community and that the sissy culture is huge here doesn't surprise me but it cuts both ways, if a trans person doesn't like their junk simply hiding it and having someone else deal with the accidents can be freedom, a number of my DL friends got into the scene that way.
There's also a broad spectrum between AB, DL and ageplay and it sounds like while the baby side doesn't fit you and maybe diapers don't fit you ageplay does. Being 10 or 12 again without the downsides of toddlers or diapers but with loving caring support and all the freedom you want to enjoy some kids shows. With this clear boundary between you playing and any adult responsibilities.
Now lets hope that star will actualy get a chance to talk this out with him like adults eye to eye and not have him silencing her with "pacifieng means" because these two certainly need to talk and get the differences out of the way, altough he deserved the pacifier to the face you just dont bring work life into such events, you just dont
The normal expectation one might for this for Star's behind to get a Hard Spanking however one thing to bear in mind here is if he was caught in the act of, he'd need to explain what Star did which would blow the lid of the whole No Talking bit which my take on is just a mind mess up thing he's running (keeping language polite).
I’m not saying manda was completely in the wrong but if I knew that Star was nervous and this was her first time doing this I probably wouldn’t have just handed her off to someone she else. I would have just kept her with me and taken her to the changing table as well even if she didn’t need one if only to have her nearby. But that’s just me, I feel like she was just forced onto Matt so that’s why this happened.
SOMEONE PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE "FUCK ME GENTLY WITH A CHAINSAW" AS A HEATHERS REFERENCE. though not intended for the comic, I'm a big heathers the musical fan and I love the movie lol. I don't comment usually but sNAp things are getting a lot more interesting. Hope star gets some slack for speaking and cussing though I wish she'd tadpole. Unka Matt crossed the line. Big time.
we know hes crossed the line but stars new to this so dose she ? and when you get that f**ked off and exploade you dont think strate so the safe word probebly wont de used. he has all the power at the moment and could fesably spank and stop her talking to manda and tell his lies wich would probely make her react with the traditon "I JUST DONT WANT TO HER It" STAMENT. There is the posiblity that manda decides for the group leave before more "damge" is done but id like to see the situation explaned on the car jorny back the car turned round and sitt back and watch as "mommy scrond" kicks off :)
A shining example of why a big needs to know the boundaries of the little before engaging in ANY ageplay to avoid an escalation of this sort. Even though I pretty sure no one would like a colleague to mention merging age play with work. Not matter how you slice it, they are not meant mesh to begin with. Unless of course you work for an ABDL/DDLG/MDLB company. I’m really curious to see how this goes from here and how Matt will respond, my guess is it will not be pretty
And this is how you know you made an awesome work, because i, and many other, are mad and angry, because we have deeply bound with your character, because we now really care about the well-being of a fictional kitty.
I personally feel really bad right now, because i'm overly sensitive, but i couldn't thank's you enough about it.

Like I said in one of the last few pages, I think Star looks up to Marellis as a father figure. Remember how she acted after the birthday party incident, and she clung to him, swore up and down she'd never disappoint him again. I think Marellis is a stand in father figure for her, and to have him in this position, it must be really awkward. It would be like having your own father, or mother, discover your cub side. It would be scary as hell.
Now, I don't know this for sure, and maybe he is going to be an ass, but I don't see the story going that way. But, I really screwed up in Found, so I'm only guessing, I don't know what is in Sammy's mind for the story, and quite honestly, I'm happy not to.

Hey Star Love the character development here.
While Matt is certainly playing with fire, She violate a direct order meaning in the U.S. military depending on how far her command or superior wishes to take it could result in 15 days extra duty ( 2 hours of extra work for 15 days ) up to a court marshal costing her' career. Plus I don't think Matt understands she is coming to terms with being a little baby girl. He probably thought this is how she enjoys her free time. With that being said if all it cost her was a lil jabbing by her superior its way better than the alternatives I have seen sailors and marines loose their jobs for such things. This is food for thought for others and as I feel it her response was totally normal and you can definitely tell you superior off while in the civilian populace without normal reprisal but that superior will remember that.
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK STAR YOUR DOING GREAT

Soo many comments @_@.
I'm usually too shy to even comment on things but...fuckable chainsaws.
Been following your comics since found first starred, then shine. Absolutely love both <3
Marellis might wanna cut the tension soon.
I've only ever had two experiences with other littles myself, one was amazing, the other creeped me the heck out and scared me out of the social side.
I'm the type who likes teasing but there's definitely a line that shouldn't be crossed or I snap like Star. Got my lil sympathies sister.

Well... there goes my theory of him being nice. This is a serious play party foul. You do not talk outside life without overt signaling from another person that such is acceptable, and you definitely don't *ever* do so during someone else's scene. That's a good way to get ejected from the venue and blacklisted.
Ooh, naughty naughty potty mouth. Hopefully Manda and Tessa realize it was well deserved.
Also hopefully Star's realized she has a good deal of power over him in the office, cause regardless of role I doubt the military types would look too kindly on taking orders from someone who spends his down time in a place like this

I have read though a few comments on this pannel. and a few thoughts came to mind, One I was hoping the artist could clear up.
1: (question for author/artist) In regards to Matt fostering his work off on Star telling her she had to do it. Was he actually allowed to do that, or was his work his responsibility that he just didnt feel like doing so decided to make someone else do it? If this is this case then star technically would not/could not really be punished for ditching work.
2: This is just my further thoughts here on Matt's Behavior and Star's reactions to it. Plain and Simple, Matt was bullying Star and regardless of what the situation between the two is, I am pretty damn sure that break meet up rules. As such Star would have every right to stand up for herself. Hell if it were me, I would have spat out that paci too, told Matt off, then gotten up gone over to Manda and brought the issues up with her as a grown up. Places like that are about TRUST, and the plain fact is Star cannot Trust Matt. As long as Star is polite when speaking to Manda about the issue, she would have no reason to not take Star's concerns seriously. But if she Didn't (as unlikely as that is) that would show Manda to be not very trustworthy

Yowzah... the claws came out xD This wouldn't be so bad a situation if they actually were friends but yeah... he definitely took advantage of Manda's no talking punishment for Star.
Hopefully, Star will get a free pass (or at the very least a slap on the wrist) on this outburst due to there being bad blood between them that Manda and Tessa didn't know about. Definitely seeing things being very, very, awkward when the work week starts up again ^_^;

To me what makes this-these last three pages so vibrantly, painfully realistic is just how much the fear of this exact thing happening is present in us.
What's worse is that Star had finally let go and fully emerald herself into everything with Amanda. She surrendered control because she was finally able to trust someone so completely, and then it's ripped away from her by Matt using this against her.
I'm said it and others ave said it too but what this character did is not okay.

It's interesting that her reaction to her being terrified (which I have no doubt that she is, from what she was thinking just a little while ago) is to instantly slam into aggression and lash out. What does that say about her, that her first reaction to something like this is to immediately attack it? Even then, Star's a lot braver than me. I'd have been neck-deep in a full-on panic attack at this point.
That IS Something My Little Girl Would Do, if someone She doesn't like or someone She's never met before, or sometimes even someone She's not used to were to treat her like this or talk to Her like that........ :) Heheheheheeheheehhehehahahaaahaa.....
She'd Say Something Like This, Too.... ;P lmao!!!!!
But I get the feeling Marellis is just teasing like Doms/Dommes/Bigs do with subs/littles......... With a hint of "enjoying" watching her squim.....

Love the comic. Sadly, I can relate pretty much directly with this scene:
boss finds out something about me 1st person, starts to prepare a blackmail. Luckily for me it was at a point in time when I was okay recording myself doing lewds. Broke his nose after resigning, and passed in the recording to his supervisor.
Still, it bothers me that this happens in the real world.

am I seriously the only one feeling bad for Marellis?
- So they are clearly in a green room, so things like that are allowed.
- He asked kindly, and Manda let him take care of her for a while.
- Star admitted that he's teasing her in the right ways, but she's just biased because she knows him.
- He was clearly teasing her, pushing her boundaries to see what she's into.
- Sure, it was work related, but they were both thinking about it, and they know each other, so that should be fine.
- The spit out pacifier I was fine with, that was funny because she's just a baby, and he would have probably went along with it too.
- But what almost made me want to stop reading this amazing comic was the seriously graphic threat/suggestion to a person who clearly has a really stressful job and is trying to escape from the everyday stress and into his safe space. And based on his reaction it seems like she has ruined his mood, and that was before the graphic talk...
I still love the comic, and I will finish it, and most people seem to love this page, and it's just my opinion, so don't take this personally. Keep up the good work! ^w^

Even if he doesn't know it, if she'd said it, I feel somebody would've guessed that was a safeword given how she'd likely screamed it. If she had. And hell if he doesn't even ask "what's tadpole mean" or something like that.. I don't know... Just. Strong opinion on that Tadpole should've been screamed loud & on repeat.
Ah Star, Wait until your Carer comes back or just tell a member of staff at the event.
He is there to take care of babies himself as much as you are there to be looked after Star.
Besides, you have blackmail material if he brings it up at the base.
What were you doing at an ABDL event dressed like a little kitten Star?
Well, what were you doing at an ABDL event?
Ah Tosha
