Uh oh.

There's an "Atsali age ten" on the eBay page right now; not sure for how much longer.

Notice that she's maintaining full human except her eyes and cheeks.

And we know she can do those if she wants.

Growth spurt 01 . . .

That implies continuation . . .

This could be interesting.

Is it time for Pickle to have hormone surges? The mind boggles.

Over at the page there's a comment asking if Paul has changed his model for Atsali, saying she reminds him if Heather.

I said:

Meanwhile - is Castela wearing some of Atsali's clothes/hand-me-downs (because her old clothes won't fit her now) - and what will Atsali say when she notices Castela is wearing some of her favourite cut-offs?

Plant hormones, one presumes . . . and probably some animal hormones too.

IIRC, there is more crossover in that realm than you would expect.

Is it my imagination, or have Pickle's speech patterns grown up by a few years as well?

Auxins and gibberellins, among others.

With that look, I'd say she has subscriptions.

Issues? Subscriptions? She looks like she has entire runs. Last time i saw a look like that was just before my ex wife set my comic collection on fire.

If Pickle is really almost as tall as Atsali now, that's quite a growth spurt.
