Somehow she reminds me of the imaginative very young Atsali. "It's a dragon!"

I'm wondering if this isn't the same minotaur that Atsali and Katherine encountered in the library before their great adventure...

Or maybe Murphy?

Considering the wapsi universe, there probably really was a young minotaur boy selling lemonade to raise money for a bicycle.

This timeline is starting to get muddled. When did Owen and Lakshmi have a kid? And if she is in her mid 20’s, how big of a time skip are we looking at? When we were following the Gilchrist girls, we figured a few years here and there, with Cass going from Elementary, to Junior High, to Highschool, but this throws everything off. Looking at the age difference, Roxanne had to have been born, years before Katherine adopted Atsali and This needs to be cleaned up.

Check yesterday's comments on the bottom of the strip's page, Paul 'splain'd it...

This being Wapsi, and boundaries between the realms being rather porous, the maze and young minotaur might have been real and Roxanne might have been in the Library.

Is is just me, or does Lakshmi look an awful lot like Berdine, in that profile shot in the second panel?

Time problem: If Roxanne is 23, then Monica is somewhere near fifty.

I don't know if Monica has a PhD, but she certainly has a Master's.

That makes her mid-twenties at least when the comic begins,. and it's sometime after that that Owen meets Lakshmi.

Then add twenty-four years or so, and Monica is AT LEAST in her late forties.

Of course, she can reset to 29 whenever she wants to...

Yes, I was looking at the profile and thought "I've seen this before..." while trying to visualize how Lakshmi would look after Mr. Taylor's changes in drawing style.

Heck, it could have been the minotaur that Antimony and Katherine met in Gunnerkrigg Court.
