        I think Ms Alger’s spell extends to all walls in the Gryphon school complex, though she did repair the damage in the middle school part.

      So, will Shawna become Shawn?

        Depends on if she breaks the wall.

      Looks like shadowboxing to me, she ain’t punching no walls.

    that scene in which new character talks about another character we haven’t met yet, and she played the pronoun game. also also she’s talking about a Fae, and punching said Fae, which we all know is a bad bad idea, and that’s before they are “locked up”. what I’m saying is this sounds like an interesting character and I’d like to know more about them. ~<3

      What “pronoun game”? Shawna clearly refer to that fae as a “she”. Also, Reginald already talked about that fae(http://wapsisquare.com/comic/your-butterfly/), so while we haven’t seen her(yet) that fae was not introduced here.

        the pronoun game is when someone uses non pronouns like “he” “she” or “man” “girl” and not actually naming the character, and as she hasn’t been on screen yet she hasn’t been introduced properly, also if it wasn’t obvious I was parodying Cinema Sins. ~<3

    Poor girl has no idea how out-classed she is, does she?

      Do we know what type of para Shawna is? Granted she’s probably not another Blackthorn and thus Fae-proof, but she might be something that could go at least a couple of rounds with a Fae…

      … or something sneaky and vicious enough to arrange a drygulch.

        Think it’s more like outclassed compared to Castela, then by whoever the fae is.

    Sure, easy to say that now that she’s not around.

      Maybe it was Cricket? Wasn’t she a fae?

      • Rezby
        October 27, 2017, 12:42 am | #

        and only 2 minutes after I hit submit comment do I realize it cannot possibly have been cricket because she was in Atsali’s age group, not Castela’s age group. ><

        On top of that the timeframe is wrong. Cricket has been under monica’s guidance for longer than he’s been a butterfly.

        Couldn’t be. Monica would bring the wrath of hell down on her.

        Not sure I’d go with the word beautiful, but a trainwreck it will indeed be. Someone’s setting up for heartbreak.

    Now this arc is going to be fun, specially if Shawna doesn’t know how powerful Castela really is.

      Daylla didn’t know until Castela showed her, and they’ve been friends for years.

      Unless we find out Shawna is some kind of top-tier para, Castella won’t even have to pull out all the stops to deal with her. Not when her punches can crack MIB-enhanced concrete warehouse walls.

      • Akamar

        Being top tier doesn’t mean she gets the guy just because though. Granted, I guess it seems people are assuming a fist fight will break out over it…

        If it’s up to Hiroshi, he seems interested in Castella and (thought she doesn’t want to admit it) she him. And oblivious to Shawna.

        I was mostly thinking of if Shawna doesn’t want to back off if/once they become a couple.

    Hmm, why does this seem familiar? A certain ‘triangle’ with Stela, Timmeh & Scar

    • Iceburgh69
      October 28, 2017, 6:50 pm | # | Reply

      Not exactly. Cas, Scar, and Tim had some awareness, and both Cas and Scar were after Tim. In this case, Shawna is after Hiroshi, and I’m not exactly certain that Hiroshi’s aware of what he wants. Cas is aware of what she wants, but is trying to suppress it (rather than outright rejecting it). I’m seeing a chat with someone, either Daylia, Kath, or Atsali. Or maybe even Bernette.

    OK, so this one was posted on the 26th, for the 27th, but today is the 28th…
    So where is the new posting?!…

    Damn!, It’s Saturday!!! aaaaaAaaagh!

    With that hairstyle, I almost want Shawna to be a medusa. That would also help explain the overconfidence.

    What worries me is; is there any chance that Shawna is “that fae” and just doesn’t realize? — Also; are Shawna and Castela going to have a rivalry over Hiroshi/Reginald? And if Castela loses out again, is it going to be her fault? Whether or not it is Castela’s own fault, will she be hurt badly if she loses out to Shawna?

      No, we were told that the fae who did that to Hiroshi has been locked up, so this can’t be her.
