I feel this with my own father, and as proud as I am of Star for standing up to her brother who's acting -as- Dad's extended arm here, if I was her my tail would be lashing back and forth in anxiety and my focus would be SO off wondering just what vindictive BS dad was gonna pull after what he sees as a 'misbehaving stunt' and 'embarrassing the family' (Re: Embarrassing HIM, because I've known people like that and they conflate their desires as the family's desires)
I think she's so caught up in this particular moment, what with everything thats happened today in the comic, that under normal circumstances she absolutely wouldn't have said what she's said in this page. It's out of character for her. Im glad she said it but yeah, proper activates some form of panic mode in me personally.
Felt, been no contact with them a few yrs now and as hard as it hurts and as much as my inner child wants that connection; i want a connection they nvr gave to begin with, and a connection that requires cuttin my own self off and denyin my self
Choosin my happiness first feels selfish, and in many ways it is... But its a selfishness we are SUPPOSED to have; as opposed to the selfishness of my biofam who selfishly demanded we all kowtow to the abusers demands and appeasin the abuser — and insisted it was selfish of us to do anythin but give them our all at a moments notice

Yeah there's an 8 year difference between the two of them, they're opposite ends of the spectrum on a lot of stuff, it was also a factor why she left the family Shed building thing early (way back in the comic) , it wasn't just her dad being a dick but knowing Victor was swinging on by. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/35623863/
Lost my empathy with the threat. Thinks hes still in charge and has any kind of power. "You're not too old for a strapping" Excuse me? 🤨
No, I'm old enough to defend myself from non consensual assault with deadly force. Try me you washed up has been weak old man who can only assert dominance on children. 🤬🤬🤬

Man, on one hand I feel proud for Star for standing up to her family and taking everything a stride and confidence. I feel inspired that if this were to happen to me I want to do the same. But I also feel bad because she shouldn't have to be going through to begin with. I'm really rooting she can come out of this relatively unscathed. But anyways, these last two pages were great!
Matt is probably the only one affirming their father's desires for the family with relative ease. He's the one with a wife and kids, and is still around to help whoever needs him. Everyone else has been pushed away by Mr. Bryce's desperate attempt to make his kids successful by his standards. Victor is obviously the least happy and the least successful of them all, because he's here trying to prove himself at the expense of the others. Makes me wonder what role he had in Alex's dissapearance, because Victor does not seem like the type to be supportive towards anyone but himself. Maybe that's why he's alone here, and just has his dad to be social with.
You better hold me properly! For he will not get off with one blow of the whip on his bare ass!
He's over 30, and he's acting like a fatherly sycophant! No, he's definitely an adult child! The star give it to me and I promise that I will make an obedient and compliant baby out of it! Or would you prefer a younger sister?

Went back to comic 559 and there the staff person who is settin things up for photos has the pink text box we see in panel 1 here; so i dont think its weird that Tessas not the one talkin there — i think Yuri is just concerned about Star rn, esp with the whole interaction with her shitebro
some of it is real life, some of it is letting star do things differently to how I did things. This is more Star doing something I was too scared to say. To this day I have never sworn at a parent, or gotten angry at them even, I guess the beatings as a child made that feel quite impossible. I used to think it was an out of respect thing, but i o think its fear conditioned
My prediction from here is that the guy with Marellis from earlier looking for her is out to give her a promotion to that task force, and the entire charity drive is going to reflect well on her character, showing her to be someone willing to put herself out for others, and the entire thing is going to reflect well on her. I hope something like that is the case anyway. I want so much for this moment of courage for her on this page to be reinforced with validation beyond her overly judgemental and harsh family elders.
It's such an amazing feeling when someone close to you questions your path in life, but then all of your immediate subordinates and superiors confirm you're where you're supposed to be, because you're good at doing the thing. Source: been there

*HARD. CORE. CLAPPING.*
I can completely relate to Star here. When you have finally had enough, when that time comes when your parents constantly favor one sibling over the others, that you finally say enough is enough, it opens unholy amounts of floodgates.
Sometimes, bridges end up getting burned. But when they were already held together by toothpicks, spit and prayer, there isn't much loss after the fact.
Cutting out something septic is never without the loss of healthy tissue. But it is the only sure way to ensure that it is entirely exorcised.
Her reaction to her brother is proabably hitting me a little closer to home too, since I had to do this only just last month myself....

PLOT TWIST: This whole thing will turn out to be a "secret test" that Star passed by putting "the mission/the greater good" ahead of her own pride...
...is the excuse they'll use to save face and avoid admitting that they're really backing down because her mom (who decided she wasn't willing to see another of her children be cruelly driven away) finally put her foot down and cowed them into doing so.

Man, I know how this feels... even if you think it'll feel great to unload on a family member because it's completely justified, you still feel terrible after because dammit, they're family and you love them even if you can't stand them. It's such a weird, yucky kind of feeling that I have unfortunately experienced many times.
Ive not felt such towards my own biofam in over a decade, but thats bcuz they literally abandoned me at 18 and refused to help me when i needed help the most; sendin me to a shelter instd, leavin me for complete strangers to take in instd :3 I found family that actually shows familial obligation and that can discuss things like this without it bein the end of the world
this one still makes me laugh cause charities on bases (in the US) are treated like a pass for all things, when I was in the Navy, we had a feminine guy dressed up as snow white and 7 of the engineer woman where the dwarves, and not a word was said to give him shit, cause like charity. but his family tried the same shit, his uncle almost got his ass beat by 7 dwarves before being put on a 24 hr hold in the brig
