A scary thought

Would anyone care to join me in contemplating the horrors in store for the teenage boys of Minneapolis-St Paul in about eleven or twelve years, when sixteen or seventeen year old Castela has learnt to hold full human form?
I mean, it's gonna be bad enough when Atsali comes to terms with her body and decides that Boys Are Interesting ... even if she suppresses the siren part of her heritage. But 'Sali' doesn't have Castela's sense of ... humour.

Who says she's going to grow?

If her sense of humor continues on its current trajectory as she comes of age I can hear the "deflowering" jokes already.

Talk about sowing wild oats.

She might not even be interested in boys when she gets older, or in girls. Many plants are self-pollinating, after all. Which brings the potential for its own forms of drama. "Mama. . .I think I'm seeding!!!"

I still hold to my hypothesis that she's a young dryad; she will eventually seek out a young male human, demi-human, or semi-demi-human to love, honer, cherish, and help her change the potting soil in the sproutlings' sleeping-pots.

Katherine will have to tell her about the birds and the peoples.

What's Atsali got to do with it?
(Somehow I don't envision TIna Turner adapting that into a new hit song.)

Older siblings ALWAYS meddle in younger sibs relationships....

If Weird Al were a fan of Wapsi Square, he'd probably make that parody.

I would base it off the Commodores:
She's a brick house
Her name's Atsali
But she's too young to let it hang out

I resent that!
I only ever interfered when they broke major rules...like breaking into my house when nobody was home so they could get alone time with my sister...or hid in the attic crawl space until we had left(or so they thought) wearing little left to imagination...The former got a surprise when my security system hidden under my pillow was aimed at their tender bits halfway through the window, and the latter got a super soaker of nice very cold jello in liquid form applied liberally.
Other than that, I never spoke to any of the boyfriends/girlfriends(unless they started a conversation). It was just a coincidence that I was honing the butcher blocks contents when they arrived...

What's really scary is this: There is a way that Paul could theoretically end Wapsi Square - and it wouldn't take more than a month of strips.

Sure. But, having Monica or Shelly wake up from one of their self-induced-by-impact-with-head periods of unconsciousness, muse about "What a weird dream I just had!", and then wonder what the heck J.R. "Bobby" Ewing is doing in her shower is... well, not really Paul's style.
The really scary question is whether Paul could survive the country-wide wave of anguished howling, if he did end
Wapsi Square in any such fashion. 'Twould be as noisy as what happened after Ethan ruptured the timeline and vanished as part of the Ctrl-Alt-Del reboot

Oh, he could have done that at pretty much
any point, and probably in less than a month.

No, the obvious one is that no one walked away alive from that bus accident that day.
