Dear, don’t bore him with trivia or burden him with your past mistakes. The happiest way to deal with a man is never to tell him anything he does not need to know. L. Long

You think anyone knows about Reginald? I mean anyone at the table, I'm sure Aunt Bud knows about him.

I sure hope the psycho Fae that was taken into custody and is 2 years ahead of them isn’t Cricket…
Vive la weird!

Cricket just graduated high school.
tl;dr version: NO
Re: A Little Distracted 2017-09-15
Wait, has the comic ever said that Cricket was in the same year as Atsali? At the high I went to, we were all mixed up, except for year-specific classes and whether or not you had the first lunch period or the second.
There is no such thing as a science experiment gone wrong.

At the high school I went to, aside from band and sports there was very little mixing more than +/- one grade. And most of that little was family-centered.Alkarii wrote:Wait, has the comic ever said that Cricket was in the same year as Atsali?

Even the classes that weren't designed to be year-specific, for the most part, effectively were close to it (again +/- one grade) because of prerequisites.
Calista immediately fell in with Atsali's crowd and was comfortable there. I don't recall her hanging out with any of Castela's classmates - only Castela, and that only when Atsali was also present. Fits the pattern I saw in high school, with Calista being within a year of Atsali's age.

In this strip, Atsali says that Cricket "is a new student at Gryphon High".Alkarii wrote:Wait, has the comic ever said that Cricket was in the same year as Atsali?

Now Atsali could just be assuming, but Cricket didn't correct her, so I'm going with it being canon. And since Atsali was a freshman that year, and we saw Cricket just before Atsali graduated, we can stongly infer that Cricket was also a freshman at the same time Atsali was.

She welcomed Digit to school this year, so she was in the same year as Atsali (at least).

I think your reasoning is quite sound. In the absence of any canon word from Pablo to the contrary, it seems to me that what you suggest is Occam's Razor... it's the simplest consistent explanation.Thor wrote:Now Atsali could just be assuming, but Cricket didn't correct her, so I'm going with it being canon.

Re: A Little Distracted 2017-09-15
Ah! I forgot that happened when Atsali was a freshman.
Also, that's actually a good look for Castela.

Lil' Pickle is sporting (perhaps unconsciously) a more refined look; lipstick type lip definition, hair in an up-do, eyes a bit more glammed up, etc.
And then, in the midst of holding her 'passing for normal human' aspect she's a bit unraveled by her more immediate distraction; look at that other eyeball become her natural vision-stalk for example.
"Castela, Are you OK?..." yeah, she's OK alright. Suuuuure...
