    I don't recall ever being in the path of totality.  Every partial I've seen has been obscured by clouds.  And I only saw an annular once where the dark disk & bright ring were fully apparent to me.

    But as I often work at night, I have seen several Lunar eclipses.  Many people insist the moon takes on the colour of blood at these events. The moon usually looks copper coloured to me.

    Am I looking at the wrong satilite?

    The first problem is that Nanase knows Ashley finds Susan cool.  And while Nanase likes and respects Susan, she does not think Ms Pompoms is cooler than herself. 

    The second problem is that Ashley does indeed think Nanase is cool, but awkward and adorkable factors have always overwhelmed Ashley's reaction whenever a "That's So Cool" response would normally have been appropriate. 

    And finally, no attempt to make yourself look cool will produce the desired result.  No matter how cool you actually are, a staged attempt to look cool usually looks about as realistic as Commodus defeating gladiators in the Flavian Ampitheatre.

    Kevin is being entirely reasonable.

    Ashley's mind is in the gutter.  And a strange thought occurs to me.

    Ashley didn't have a neighborhood Tedd while she was growing up.

    In Royal courts, the Jester or fool would obnoxiously laugh, cry, swoon, sigh, or express whatever emotion the moarch & nobility were feeling in an exaggerated manner.  This allowed the aristocrats to stoicly maintain the stiff upper lip while somone else emoted for them.  

    Tedd was a self identified pervert.  Not at all shy about fantasies & ideas regarding human sexuallity.  Later freely using alien tech & magic for voyueristic purposes on any one in range.  

    Tedd was Moperville's perverted jester.  If some girl's shorts ripped in gym, the usual rude reactions could be replaced with "what would Tedd do".

    Ashley, being new to Moperville, is stil trying to carry her own erotic baggage.

    World conquering Tedd was the victim of a prophesv regarding his parents that was most umpleasant.  They abandond the infant, but he was found and raised without knowing his parents or the prophesy . . . .  

     

    Lord Tedd as Teddipus Rex?  He has the Black Hole Eyes . . . .

    The historic capture of Sevastapol & Crimea were essental in allowing late Tsarist and early Soviet Russia to regard themselves as a world naval and trading power.

    When Kruschev transfered Crimea to Ukraine, more than a few Russians comforted themselves with the thought that everything Soviet was Russian.

    The collapse of the USSR left a lot of people thinking that Crimea had been stolen.

    A skillful diplomat in power might have found a peaceful solution to a populist crisis.

    Vladimir Putin had other ideas . . . .

     

    I very much fear those ideas include "If I can't have it, no one can have it!"

    Steve looks interested, but I doubt he will ever meet Tedd.  He is too shy and won't come out of his shell.

    . . . . . .

    Is the abrupt change of location a way to keep us seeing Elliot's true form?  Or is it just pushing off another opportunity for Tedd & Edward to have a meaningful conversation on pannel?

    If it had not been for that one clause, Nanase probably would have been asking Tedd for help as soon as the system changed. 

     . . . . . 

    That Death Glare. I don't think that is either a magical or martial arts technique.

    No, that one is from a place in her soul that very few have seen and survived.

    Edward is one of the most accomplished  magic practitioners in the Country. 

    His observations of Tedd's procedures will be useful to later analysis, 

    So no, Tedd does not want Edward there only to impress him. 

    That's just 95% of the reason. 

     . . . . . 

    And what is Grace doing in Time? I thought her first major magazine appearance would be in National Geographic.

    How does Tedd happen to have a bat lying around the house? He does not seem the type to have a plethora of sports equipment.

     

     

    You are kidding, right?

    A home can aquire any type or ammount of junk over the years.

    We've already seen Tedd with a bat in the comic,

    Ashley had, of course, already identified Nanase as cool.  But was often so overwhelmed that Nanase failed to read Ashley's reaction as such.

    Today's comic is just another example of why Ashley is so awestruck by magic.  She has a vivid imagination and is afraid that with any access to magic she will be unable to refrain from acting out on her fantasies. 

    Could Edward arrange for Ashley to get a "Ride Along" with the real Magic Cops?  If Ashley can see that there are professionals looking out for the public, protecting them from those who would abuse magic, she might be more confident in developing her own skill.  If there are people capable of stopping her, then she does not need to be continually working to stop herself.
