Alice Grove MCDLT - THE END...?
Skewbrow:
More importantly, has Betelgeuze blown up? :-P
Method of Madness:
Important to note: Blink was 5,000 years before the comic, but we have no idea how far in the future the Blink itself happened.
retrosteve:
* Agreed, Jeph is wrapping this up way too fast with too much exposition and not enough plot.
* Note: the plot Laridia just revealed is essentially the one Alice said she feared here

The only differences are:
1. It is likely to happen much faster than Alice feared
2. The Prases claim they're not responsible, and they're very curious who is. It's not Alice or Pate either. Again, a new party seems most likely.
I gotta admit that this new party is really late on the scene arriving. If it arrives within the last week, the story looks too pat. If they don't, then somebody is seriously lying.

Sorry, I mistyped. Couch (pronounced "cooch") grass is an invasive grass that spreads by rhizomes, not seeds. I meant Goosegrass, whose seeds have hooks and catch onto passing dogs for transport (like the larger teazles); it's a right pain removing them all before taking the dog back home! These "burrs" (name for seed cases with hooks on, whatever size) must be removed not only to prevent the plant being spread to your garden, but to prevent them getting the dog's hair seriously matted.
Tova:
Alice killed Pate and almost killed Ardent to prevent them from bootstrapping humanity.
And it's happening anyway.
