If the entire crew is going to stay in the SJI, they'll definitely have to expand the building.  If this is a reference to a new villain showing up with specific plans for the campus that don't include the Infirmary, it could be the new jumping off point for the next arc as we have a battle of wills, artifacts, wits, and other assets.  (PG version might be something like Sydney White; soft-core version would be Co-Ed Confidential).

dunno if this has been pointed out before, but Daphne - navigating the story has gotten quite cumbersome.  Is there a way to start at the beginning and move forward, rather than moving backward page by page?

Not currently, but we're working on it.

I guess we'll have to wait for payment of that particular debt laguna.  I'm positive that's too much fun for our writers and artists to skip showing it to us.

Beautiful artwork, but still more questions than answers.  Is Mal running the harem now, or isn't there a queen bee at all yet?

Whose idea was this little construction project?  It seems like Dani's but it never hurts to double check.

How many days past Denoument are we?  Or to put this more clearly, what day is this (weekday not date, the date would get REALLY confusing if we tried to pin it down).

I ask this because it doesn't appear that Erin is dressed for class or work.  Speaking of which, don't Dani,  Erin, and Adrian occasionally have coursework?  If I remember correctly, Mal's working on her dissertation, Jacqui owns the record store, and Marli is a nurse (presumably at work right now).  I thought Erin and Dani were still students.

Now for a far more interesting question.  How are they going to explain the pole to Adrian?  A plan for aerobics in the household?

There is now a stripperpole in the building.  Yeah if our hero doesn't think something strange is happening here then he has somehow recieved Dirks IQ points.

Indeed!

Thank you! And that's kind of how we like it...if you knew everything, why read the story?

I honestly don't know what day it is - or what day Denouement was, either.

They do have coursework, sometimes...we've really only been looking at their lives for a few days at this point. Erin and Dani are students - Erin will be going out later and wearing something more appropriate.

Mine too. Whatta woman.

Thank you! I love it, too!

Panel 1: Adrian enters the Infirmary. He's wearing a two-tone wide-shouldered suit and has his hair slicked back. He looks at the pole in astonishment.
ADRIAN: Daniiiiiiii? You got some 'splainin' to do...

Thanks again to everyone for reading and posting - more cool stuff to come!

Are they?  I didn't get that impression from the SJI member bonus.  Some of the girls (Caitlyn and Sue) are listed with expected graduation dates from Wilmot College and Laura is described as a PhD candidate.  I'd assumed that if no graduation date was listed it meant the study was complete, which would imply that Danielle has a master's degree (irony alert!) in Philosophy and Erin has a BA in Theatre.

I find myself wondering about the mental state of the various girls.  There seem to be two 'types' now.  Mallory, Marliese and Erin definitely know that they were programmed by the watch into being Adrian's slaves; Jacqui probably knows this too.  At the very least she knows that Caitlyn, Amy, Laura and Danielle were programmed by the watch because she saw it happen.  Based on the discussion we saw in #78 all the girls know about the watch and at least some of what it can do, but while Caitlyn, Amy, Laura and Danielle seem to think of themselves as Adrian's slaves they won't think of themselves as programmed into being that way.  In effect there's an "inner circle" that knows what's going on and an "outer circle" that's oblivious.  I'm particularly intrigued by the implication in #79 that Laura is recruiting Raven in the guise of a dinner invitation.

In the case of Erin and Dani, it's sort of both: They've completed their respective degrees, but they both plan to go back to school. But MA and PhD programs at Wilmot are expensive!

Will they need to come to an understanding with one of the deans of Wilmot to maintain on-campus residence if they aren't officially enrolled in their postgraduate programs?  It would seem like that would be a possibility.  That could bring us to another fork in the road.  If the dean is of the Animal House Wormer variety, he could be an adversary for awhile now that Derek has decamped.  If, however the dean or deans are women...say women Jacqui's age or slightly older...that raises a whole host of possibilities.

On a side note--now that Marli seems to be the wielder of The Watch and Mal seems to be directing her use of it, should the teaser next to that exquisite cover art be updated?

The Infirmary is a private off-campus residence, rather than a fraternal house, so they're in good shape there. Of course, if any of the girls who are in on-campus housing decided to move to the Infirmary, that could be an issue, as Wilmot has a mandatory on-campus rule for lower division undergraduates.
