I'm not sure exactly why Bryn is fangirling so hard. Hellen is beyond adorable, but I don't know that pure physical attractiveness should be that devastating. Given the reactions of every character so far, Hellen seems to be a top celebrity. Added to that, Bryn (a school principal) might also have ...

Just noticed something: freckles must be photoshopped out, or they don't appear when she drops (dons?) her glamour. Perhaps they're migratory, and they move to the side of her away from the camera. Plus she was all excited about modeling Devyn’s designs. For all we know, Hellen could turn out to ha...

Also Paul's established that the inside of her mouth is blue, too. Whenever she's not being all human-looking. When she's being all sireny, she's got pale skin and blue freckles, lips, mouth, blood, and who knows what else. When she's being all humany, then it all goes to more typical human shades....

We don't know what scents, though. Pine, and bayberry, and citrus... that's one thing. It would be different (and perhaps tough on her relationship with Kevin) if she was enamoured of candles scented with overboiled brussels sprouts, wet Labrador retriever, or fire-in-the-sewage-sludge-composting-p...

Well, I can tell you that earwigs have no special fondness for ears. That is, as compared to other tiny moist holes they can hide in. Years ago on leave I was helping put out wildfires in Mexico. One of the other guys there, an American kid from very rural New England, had so little knowledge of Sp...

Would that be what you call "having someone on the inside" ? :P Monica hasn't had a chance to accidentally eat any of those spiders. . .yet. Maybe after she swallows a fly, she'll try swallowing a spider to get rid of it. And it won't do much for the tree rats . . . Get the spiders organised, have ...

And now we get introduced to Shawna's English cousin, Harry Pottinger from Hogwings Academy.

Yeah wasn’t there a comic saying this? Well, there was one where Monica said that she'd be Digit's "official guardian", whatever that entails. And another where Monica said how she was going to be the worst mother ever for Digit. I don't recall there ever being it plainly stated that Digit was Moni...

Chest colds seem to be a different thing for paranormal kids than for humans.

I wonder just which forms of media the Library keeps copies of? Text and pictures on pages, at least, but probably also electronic media. So might there now be, somewhere in the Library's dark hidden recesses, a certain new short video file suddenly available for watching and undeletable? And if som...

If she's hungry, she can always just try unraveling in a nice sunny patch of soil for a bit of nourishment.

Thus starting her life of crime, culminating in a sordid prison romance that resolves the whole problem with Hiroshi!

A few of these ideas may have enough potential, though there does seem to be a bit of follow-the-leader thinking going on. I suppose that flashes of inspiration don't always strike when wanted. I think that's the General Sherman Tree of clue-by-fours that just fell over and hit her on the head. "War...

"Deer in the headlights" is an option, just probably not a really great one. Though I do wonder what the plant version of "deer in the headlights" would be; "night-blooming moonflower blossom caught in the extra-long near-Arctic summer daylight"? So, what's the deal with Scarlett? Did her advanced s...

And now we can have a pot deciding on her own preferred techniques.

Until the author mentions some new detail that totally derails all previous speculation. At which point the cycle starts all over again.

I thought that that was limes and coconuts?

I wonder if she can whistle?

Also, what happens if she is in tea-pot form, gets filled up with tea, and then takes on human form? Does she get to enjoy a nice yummy tummy full of tea, or does it get somehow preserved within the inner pot?

Cast-iron teapots are a thing...

Yep, I have. . .at least one.

http://wapsisquare.com/comic/mid-week-break-4/ It appears that Ruri is not as fragile in her humaniform state as she was as a teapot Or else she just likes to live dangerously. Or maybe she was just a sturdy tea-pot. (Japan, 119 years ago): "Hey, it's almost the 20th Century! In commemoration of th...

Then you might just end up with a cannnon, which would be a bit much.
