--- Quote from: sniktchtherat on 30 May 2018, 01:44 ---....the more I think about Emily, the more I wonder. We know she has parents - Marigold met them on-panel after the beach house party. She COULD just be one of those people who's so terrifyingly intelligent that nominal social interactions are at best tertiary concerns...but I still wonder.

My brother is highly intelligent. I mean, I have an IQ of 160, and he makes me feel stupid by comparison. I don't know if his IQ is over 200, but it's pretty damn close. As a result, he does not tend to interact well socially. His brain can do laps around normal people, but he doesn't know how to talk to them. Emily does a far better job of that, considering how smart she is.

There is some research indicating that communication tends to break down with more than a 30-point IQ gap. There are ways to compensate and talking to people is a teachable skill. Emily may have chosen not to invest the time and effort.

Or she may not have run across anyone capable of teaching that particular skill.

A) If I recall correctly, Emily didn't say she sees anything, she just said that Assam smells like a hunky unicorn guy to her.
B) The strip that showed what Roko sees when sniffing Assam was a guest strip, wasn't it? Guest strips are usually assumed to be non-canon. Then again, the strip that mentioned Emily's impressions of Assam was by Jeph, so that may imply he has canonized that particular guest strip...

That one wasn't a guest strip. You may be thinking of this little gem...

So I was. Thank you!

That might explain why Spookybot chose her to go into Bubbles mind. Perhaps they knew Emily is more that what she appears, but didn't want to out her.
