It’s been two years? Yes, in earth time, but in the Worthiverse? That’s impossible! That would mean that Dawn would be just about finishing up her associates degree, and that can never happen!

Thank you, KM, for reminding me how much of my life I've wasted reading this foolish comic strip.
“I’m still living off my father, who has no obvious means of support but never has any financial concerns. I’m almost done with my remedial classes so I can enroll in regular classes some time kind of soon. And, I’m madly and deeply in love with a Frenchman. We’re doing long distance!”
Wait just a dern minute! Jared is working at NORTHview Hospital? And Mary volunteers at MOUNTview Hospital? Just how many views does Santa Royals have?
"Fletcher and Black"? Who was "Black"?, and why should we care about him or her? Dawn describes her former (harrassing) employer as if he were a partner in a law firm. Maybe she just can't bring herself to admit he was a Doctor... More awkward dialogue from the ones we love so well.
@Michael Beaumier: How do I know Hugo’s last name? Mon frere-how you say?-my brother-was at ecole-school-with young Hugo. Of course, les ecoles are much-how you say?-better in Paris. And the brothers are much better, also.
If you think greeting somebody by first and last name seems like an oddly stilted way of speaking, keep in mind this is coming from the author of “I suffer from an uneasy restlessness”, “I wonder if you’d like to join me for local outings?”, “They’ll likely caution participants that sharing at open talks may lead to feedback!” and other immortal Turing-test-confounding locutions.

Who in the world greets someone by their first and last name? That's really creepy and weird.
Dawn: "I'm taking one class per class year. If all goes well, I should be graduating in 2068."
I wonder if Medical Assistant Jared brought his little Star Wars figures to keep him company?
