Under the guidance of the Jaguar Girl. Very interesting!

I wonder if anyone has mentioned this new, uh, responsibility to Monica?

Very interesting indeed.

It makes a crazy kind of sense, since Monica has been having to deal with her own dark side lately. The Jaguar Girl can be, and perhaps is expected to be, somewhat of a sociopath under some circumstance. Both she, and Cricket have some work to do there, in learning to manage this aspect of their personalities.

Working with Calista might be another part of the leadership-and-role-model job that Phix and others seem to feel that Monica is now playing (somewhat to her dismay)

You know, we never found out what happened to Bia.

I wonder if Monica is forming a collection.

Hah! Called it! (sort of) M's going to play a part here. Good. She's been out of the loop for far to long.

Interesting. Tartarus huh??? Greek one or Sinbad one? Either fits. Chaos or judgement deep in the pit. I suspect Cricket is a rally crazy even for a Fae. Whether she can be cured is another question.
Ambush questions are fun. Watching the mental impact of them as they distort, or crumble, opinions based on faulty logic.

I thought Cricket might have a softer side. I didn't think she'd be crumbling...

It is GOOD, though, that Bern is saying she'll have to work to be her friend, and not that friendship is impossible. She's got a good heart.

Cricket's going to be a bit shocked when she finds out who one of Atsali's 'aunts' is. Maybe when she finds out who ALL of her aunts are. It's interesting: Atsali is trying to get Jin to be her mentor, and Cricket needs Monica to be HER mentor. I wonder if the Bruin sisters need mentors, too.

So it's the old: "It wasn't me it was my gossamer double who did it." routine.

OK then, just an illusion (still over the top, but least no one got killed or injured). And word no doubt got out that it was just an illusion, but still on youtube somewhere just the same. . . (don't bother looking for it on teh innerwebz, this is a work of fiction :lol: )

And I was just thinking the other day, "THIS looks like a job for (que dramatic music) the JAGUAR GIRL!!!

Paging auntie Monica, you are wanted on the set...
Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?

Ah. Better. Still poor impulse control and sense of proportionality, but at least she's aware of it and is fighting it.

Yeah, a good role model for controlled power might help. And Monica has become that. Partly thanks to Nudge letting her see what happens if she loses control.

And this is just Lunch! (Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so) What does the rest of the school day hold for Jugs, Bugs and Cubs?
