Well, there was an ice-cream van parked outside the ex-clinic where Glenn and Lottie live on the first page of the story. And during the mini-golf game Claire proposed that she and Glenn could buy one together “if it all goes tits up with Charlotte”, which seems to have come to pass.
I’m afraid this plan will end in total disaster. But for now, it’s so nice to see this beautiful pair of lovebirds in total adoration of each other. They are so sweet♡.
But being fully fledged would just mean the feathers cover all her surface area. Since she has less surface area, she’d need fewer feathers to achieve full fledge.
How would you even decide the winner of a contest between an all-Brit K-pop band and a dog who can say “sausages”? My brain freezes up trying to think about it.
I couldn’t possibly be more surprised by Lottie’s change in personality. I mean, I get it. This is the reality of young lives – attractions and hormones have a disastrous effect. But in everything we’ve ever seen to date, she seemed immune, or above all of “that”. A little part of me has died seeing her like this – basically normal, rather than the powerful anti-hero. Going to need some time to adjust to this.
I’ve known some people like this, you assume they will always be driven, often single… there was a fella my mom said would never get married. And then suddenly, bam, wife and kids. Humans gonna human I guess!
(as a storyteller, you’ve gotta balance the underlying realities of character with audience expectations, and pacing. it’s a hard one)
I for one think Lottie’s metamorphosis is totally in character. She’s known for drastic and sudden reversals on a variety of topics, and for impusilvely throwing herself into grand plans. And one did have the sense for years that she was actively avoiding romance rather than indifferent to it (and we did have some warning lately that she wished to get into the game). The field of endeavor may be new, but the wholehearted committment to what may be a terrible plan is pure Lottie.
No – not disappointed. Surprised. There’s a difference. Honestly, it’s like Robin beat Batman in a fight. I mean, you can write the story, make it believable, but it will still seem so very wrong in execution.
Flow chart had me wheezing
Support slot with Blackpink PLEASE LOTTIE
Get this girl a copy of the KLF’s manual (if she doesn’t already have one)
Funnily enough Lottie’s listing of towns immediately had me thinking of “It’s Grim up North”
Yes, but where are they getting the ice-cream truck?
Well, Tammy Wynette died back in ’98 so I guess they could see if they could buy hers off whoever is managing the estate.

The Terry’s ad WOULD be pretty epic
He calls her ‘babe’ while lifting weights. Not a good combination.
idk i think he is a clean, tite bodied and respeckful young man
total himbo
cute
Plus he is not pumping iron, he is POMPing iron. That sounds much more stylish (and much more difficult).
Making that noise is hell on the tendons. He’ll rue it in his later days.
Not to worry, just sup the beef joint, fixes them right up
I admit, I’m a little afraid to ask Google what that might mean.
That’s when you work out while listening to Sir Edward Elgar.
I hope there is also a Master Scheme B
Only if Lottie can manage to involve Glenn in this project.
P.T.O.
That’s all very well, but how does she think they’ll get Manchester?
First we take Manhattan, then . . .
Only if we are guided by the beauty of our weapons.

At first I thought Nero was wearing Zambian brand boxers, but then realized it’s the letter ‘N.’
Maybe they’re Zambian boxers that he got because a ‘Z’ looks like a sideways ‘N’.
I’m guessing Nero buys his “N” boxers from the same shop that Dorado bought his “D” medallion from.
The Lottie-only pictures on the wall are giving me the heebie-jeebies. I so dearly hope I’m worrying unnecessarily.
It’s Nero’s boyho… I mean bedroom, so having pictures of his girlfriend up doesn’t seem so odd.
They’ll never take Doncaster without a good supply of peperamis with which to placate the mantis god!
(Gorecasio forever!)
well there’s a future episode called SKRAAAAAA so maybe the Mantis God will awaken.
Rising from the deep primeval scum! We can only hope!
Aaand now all fans must reconcile with the fact that Lottie is a full-fledged young woman.
I don’t think she’ll ever be tall enough for that.
A ¾-fledged young woman, maybe.
Are you saying that being short prevents her from growing a full set of adult feathers?
It makes sense. She’s got a limited surface area. Where would they all go?
But being fully fledged would just mean the feathers cover all her surface area. Since she has less surface area, she’d need fewer feathers to achieve full fledge.
Didn’t Colm’s dad warn us? Or who was it. John knows
Colm said Lottie would be gorgeous one day. Apparentlym that day is here. At least, according to Nero.
🎵 Three quarters, one and a half, two and a quarter times a lady, and I love you….
I would think that being shorter would make it easier for her to achieve her full fledge, since she’d need less fledging.
Mad Terry’s Chocolate Orange, maybe.
I initially misread that as “Mad Terry’s Clockwork Orange”, which would be rather alarming.
Well everybody’s gotta mess up some time I guess.
Tie on the door is an ace detail
Many of us used a sock.
We were down-market, however.
Tie on the door signifying, of course, that business model brainstorming is underway.
Ugh, please let Glerm enter and win the contest.
He denied wanting to enter, but I suppose anything is possible.
For those who had maybe forgotten, Meadowhall Talent Stage, which Lottie now plans for D-Slide to win, was relevant to Glenn’s interests.
How would you even decide the winner of a contest between an all-Brit K-pop band and a dog who can say “sausages”? My brain freezes up trying to think about it.
In Lottie’s mind, a “plan” is just a list of lucky events you hope will happen.
Well, of course. That’s what a plan is, right?
(This *could* explain why my life is just one lucky escape from abject failiure after another…)

All I want… is for people to feel… something… ANYTHING… at this point!

Basically normal? I think not my friend. All this disappointment in Lottie. Fickle fans, I say. Fickle, fickle fans.
No – not disappointed. Surprised. There’s a difference. Honestly, it’s like Robin beat Batman in a fight. I mean, you can write the story, make it believable, but it will still seem so very wrong in execution.
