--- Quote from: Castlerook on 08 Dec 2017, 18:07 ---Question - Why would Tilly have a section dedicated to Hanner's friend's relationships?
--- End quote ---
Why not? The dossier was probably supposed to contain everything about Hannelore and the people she interacts with.
--- Quote from: Castlerook on 08 Dec 2017, 18:07 ---Question the second - How on earth would anyone know that Claire was Trans? The only ones who know (if I recall correctly) are her mother, Clinton, Marten and Emily. Its not been something Claire has been particularly shouting from the rooftops about.

Pintsize was told in 3185, and in 3337 she told Bubbles. However, it seems from the following pages that she had still not told Faye at that point, and I don't find any mention of that later, so presumably Faye still doesn't know.

I buy them regularly - my favourite cereal, from childhood.

It appears from postconsumerbrands.com that they're still around. I always imagined Saki's Filboid Studge as being something like Grape Nuts.

Oh, interesting! I guess I haven't looked in the right stores. Granted, I don't buy cereal much anyway, so it's possible that it's been in plain sight without my noticing.
Bad Superman:
The longer this Tilly-debacle continues, the more I wonder where this storyline is going...
Currently I can only see two ways for this arc to end:
1.: Tilly convinces Hannelore (somehow) that they are indeed a useful PA.
Of course this would make Tilly and Hannelore a not-quite-literal pair of siamese twins. But to what end? What's the goal here? Is there an interesting story ahead, that I just fail to see? And also, will ALL QC characters just accept Tillys nerve-wrecking behaviour? In case of Faye I highly doubt that and I think Dora isn't too fond of them either. So, for me, I just don't see how Tilly would fit in with the rest of the cast, and also I don't see anything interesting for them to do.
2.: Tilly fails (hopefully).
But then what? It has already been pointed out that Tilly seems to be here to stay, but with what function to fulfill within the comic? Will they become just another stray the QC crew adopts, after they get fired? (Because, just transferring them to a new... "victim"... would remove them from the comic, wouldn't it?) Will Tilly, as others have suggested, put their skills to use for Dora or maybe even for Faye and Bubbles (which in any case would require a radical change of attitude on Tillys part... if they want to live...)? I don't know, and to be honest, I don't find any of those scenarios appealing.
Any thoughts on that?

Maybe there are then consequences that Hannelore has to deal with. This could be a setup for a confrontation between her and her mom.
