Thanks guys! This keeps the forum nice and neat.
Ah HA! First we have one scary little girl in someones mind, and then we have the other. I have a feeling that Shelly will be mentoring someone, in the future...
Um, I'm spelling it the way it's spelled in the title, even if it's wrong.
"Turnabout is fair play, bitch!"
What surprises me is that Shelly waited so long for payback. She doesn't seem the type to wait until the target has forgotten all about what happened and then look for a chance to strike back. Usually for her it is to hit back hard when it happens.
Ambush questions are fun. Watching the mental impact of them as they distort, or crumble, opinions based on faulty logic.

80,000 years or so in the Time Forest may have taught her patience. They say that vengeance is a dish best served cold...

Thanks. I wondered what that overly-burly construction worker in a long T-shirt was doing in the Boiler Room. Seemed like an odd way to introduced a new (and possibly damned) character to the strip.
Shelly had best be glad that Connie didnt react to the surprise the Stali does, by knocking someones block off.

I only recognized it because I had one in the basement of our condo.

I have to agree with those who find it odd Shelly waited 80,000+ years to get back at Connie for that. Maybe she found an old diary that reminded her of the event, and decided it was "Gotcha!" time.
I'd like a bit more information about this situation, though. Why is Connie still living in the boiler room in Shelly's... mind? Soul? Time And Relative Dimension In Space? Why was there a boiler room there in the first place? How did Shelly manage to sneak in and take Connie so unaware? What was Connie up to, anyway, crawling around on the ceiling? And why is Connie still in that ratty t-shirt? Can't Shelly buy her a nice jumper?
