[20 Apr 12] Undeclared?

[Tamar]

I'm guessing the person saying "Undeclared?" is Temperance's roommate? If so (it might not be), I wonder who the roommate is?

[Kamino Neko]

can we have a whole chapter with alternate universe Riddler!Lisa?

Lisa as the Riddler?

...

I can dig it.

[Brook]

Also excited to know more about Temperance. I got curious when she first showed up.

Huh. I thought we'd be focusing on Chrissy and "Intersex" next, since Q and U are practically married in the English language.

Well, U shows up a lot without Q, so it might be legit.

U can see other letters. They worked out their rules before tying the knot.

[svenman]

"Why is Q the most-loved letter in the English language? Because it's followed everywhere by U! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
--Lisa, in the alternate universe where Internet memes have been replaced by 30-year-old riddle books

Those riddle books really show their age. Clearly they come from a time before stalking was widely recognized as problematic behaviour.

Looking at the strip again, I noticed the close-up of Temperance's lipstick, "Natural Look." Knowing T, we can probably assume that this is highlighted for a reason. It may be that the concept of "natural" (perhaps wishing to look natural, to blend in, to fit in) will be a motif or keyword in this chapter, just as "nothing" (hmm, another word starting with "n") was in Sara's first chapter plotline ("The Nothing is coming! It...it's inside me!", "We are nothing but our minds," "You fake, you, you, you nothing," and of course the visual representation of "Nothing" Sara experiences in philosophy and "cree-wri" and in her dream).

I know it makes T's day when we notice these things, so I just wanted to point it out.

DAY MADE

[Alice Macher]

^___^ Yay! I made someone happy today.

No, I think that was just U getting back at Q for "qat."

[Ameyal]

can we have a whole chapter with alternate universe Riddler!Lisa?

Lisa as the Riddler?

...

I can dig it.

Aggie's totally Batman... girl... woman... person.

[Artemisia]

Aggie would be Batwoman . . .

And here's something of an explanation why:

[Mr. Brightside]

"Naïve" and "Oracle" are not concepts that go well together in my head, even if she's gone back to the cowl.

[Artemisia]

That's one artist's rendition of the new show Super Best Friends Forever coming to us from Lauren Faust. . .

Given that this is the woman who unleashed bronies on humanity, I recommend trembling in fear.

[CEOIII]

Oy. If the show has to have a ditz, can't it be Robin? Or Spoiler?

[Artemisia]

Only if Robin has a sex change- the three mains are Batgirl, Wonder Girl and Super Girl.

[SomeCanadianWeirdo]

Given that Undeclared is the name of a TV series perhaps the other titles in this chapter should have U TV series names as well. Let's see, there's Unsolved Mysteries, UFO, well, just look at this list.
