    Three years...


The Parodyverse is very definitely in comic-book time by now. Using FA's age as a guideline, she was about 14 when she first appeared in Untold Tales #5, 27th June 1999. She was 17 when she joined the Juniors in UT #134, 3rd January 2004. She's 19 now, still one year older than Kerry.

Samantha Featherstone, Mumphrey's niece, was 11 at her first appearance in UT #230, 21st August 2005 (and let's just pause and reflect that there were almost 100 issues of Untold Tales between Jan '04 and Aug '05!). She was 15 last time she appeared. I think that puts Mags and Griffin around 13ish.

From which we conclude that the League of Regulars debuted around seven years before present and the Parody War, which lasted most of a year, was just over a year ago. Dancer, however, remains 22; I have firm instructions.

    well, I guess that they've learned enough to see the trouble coming, even if they don't get out of the way. That's progress, right? It's fun to check in on the group now that they're out on their own. Legally adults. No longer anyone's responsibility but their own.


Keep repeating that. You never know, one day it might work.

It interests me that when my kids were school age I had stories to express my anxiety about school children. Now both my offspring are away at university. Hmmm...

    That Red Velvet seems friendly. I do hope that someone cleans that couch. Often. Although with Kerry there it's probably burned regularly.


I think I may even have included that point in some draft of one chapter or another.

    Very fun stuff! I look forward to seeing where it's heading with dread and anticipation!


Me too.
