Now, the big follow-up question: "Have we ever seen Tina not wearing her trademark choker?" Just because you're asking the question in this way in this forum, the answer is yes. (Imagine posting a link to a page that proves the answer is no. It, um, doesn't work. Even conceptually.) Howev...

Humm, good question. Makes me wonder if you could get a spark into the bubble before it breaches would i explode since it is in a confined area. I would guess that it would not explode due to insufficient oxygen. This (insufficient oxygen) would be more likely to be true if mermaids have gills ( wh...

Yeep. That stuff isn't even good enough to qualify as BAD pizza.

Dunno about mermaids, but we know what a selkie eats.

Another note from the WSCGTTWC Committee: Calista Foxglove is the name of the Fae princess with an attitude who likes playing with ponies and cries. Castel Enora "Castela" Gilchrist is the name of our Blackthorn Whatsit girl who was adopted by Katherine after the Lost Dolls of the Anasazi...

I'm thinking the pecking order is Fae, Mermaids, Sirens. Correct. Would not the little whatsit come before fae? we already saw she could kill a fae at less that her present age. i shudder to think what she could do as a full grown adult. I'm thinking that there is a species pecking order, which is ...

A few underage boys who can't sing.

I like Jessie's "shut up before you get us killed" expression in panel 2.

I can see why they're scared of all they have witnessed. jwhouk made a nice summary of it. What I can't figure is why they don't want to stay below the radar, at this point, and surreptitiously walk away, as if nothing had happened... You know, make no wave, act natural, don't bring attention to yo...

Well, quit fumming around and make your deposit to the pun jar.

(On my own behalf, here's a copy of the 1913 Webster's.)

If Castela caught it when it was actually trying to attack her or influence her in some way, though, then she might have more of a justifiable claim to protecting herself (though even then the whole dismembering it part kind of pushes things a bit far). Considering the relative sizes, she might hav...

When my Dad turned 18 he joined the Navy to get an education in electronics. He thought that fixing electronics on a ship would be fairly safe and that he would never be called upon to actually hurt or kill anyone. Turned out he was wrong. During the Korean War his ship was providing close fire sup...

It occurs to me that, in context, the use of first & middle names might be worse than the use of all three names. Because using "Gilchrist" re-asserts the bond between them. And Castela is a little girl with abandonment issues. However scary it may be, the fact that Mom is using Mom Vo...

*Ahem* - pun jar.

I was afraid this would happen. I hoped it wouldn't happen so soon. Barring a deus ex machina - or a convincing lie - Castela is in for a bad time. :cry: There is at least one potential truthful, non-deus answer. That is that there was a fae who was watching over Castela when she first arrived at t...

And now she's going to go all goth and call herself Deadly Nightshade and start writing bad poetry that will seem darling because of her childish handwriting. Every single song she sings is tragic All she wants to do is ose that’s long Even though I’d like to make some magic Now I know her verse go...

I have to wonder now if Castela has been motivated by some kind of race memory. It seems her kind was savagely assaulted by the Fae. Judging from Calista's present state I'd say the Fae got what they deserved on all counts. Read back, Castela doesn't have a race, she was made! First, last, and prob...

The Maguffin is an essential element in any story to ensure the characters stay in line and play their parts. In this way it can be considered the heart and soul of any tale. An essential characteristic of a true maguffin is that it doesn't really matter what it is. For example, you could take The ...
