WCDT Strips 3536 to 3540 (31st July to 4th August 2017)
BenRG:
The poll may seem random but, if there is one thing I've learned about creative writing, never assume that an object is not a Chekhov's Gun until it is buried safely in a pail of sand and forgotten.
What would I like to see? I'd like to see is for the curio to actually be nothing but for the characters to spend weeks trying to work it out and failing because, in the end, they all expect that it is something. We learn lots about the characters in the process (what we 'expect' is informed by our subconscious wants and desires, after all). Maybe there would be some kind of final-reel twist when we learn it was planted by Spookybot for some mysterious purpose (that Jeph is holding back for Strip 4000).
As for this week's strips? I really have no idea where Jeph is going to go. The last three strips of last week had the feel of a palette cleanser so Jeph might go absolutely anywhere. The obvious favourite options are:
* More Faye and Bubbles adventures; did the candles make Bubbles high? What did she do under the influence?
* Just what was the outcome of Brun thinking about what she's learned about attraction?
* Just how is Hannelore going to react to the fact she can now think about being dirty without freaking out (only freaking out when she realises that she isn't freaking out)?One less obvious option (but one I'd like to see) is how are Claire's studies going. If graduation is soon, has she had thoughts about her long-term future? More importantly, what has Marten been thinking and doing in that area?
Case:
Which Charles Augustine are you referring to? The dead first husband of the Republican Senator?

In the beginning, there was The Cube.......
