    And we have our crossover. A very unexpected crossover.

    Fay shouldn’t be expecting, at her age, to display the goods without first doing a few more customer surveys.

    But we now know the fact that the lingerie is counterfeit has not made the news. No police raids.

    So neither Ann nor Tiffany has said anything to any authority? Just Tiffany to her friends.

    Where does Fay hear about Souffle Lingerie parties? Anyway it looks like Fay has developed a new interest in becoming attractive – now that she has a target. If Axel is good to her – Fay’s self esteem will improve majorly.

    Quibbling Siblings, Soufflé Lingerie, Cafe TJ, Chateau Trio, Kafé Kablooie…. this strip’s reliance on rhyming/alliterative names is really starting to wear thin (and all these are just what I recall offhand from the past few years; I’d hate to see what more we’d find after doing an entire archive search). These kinds of names are really not as common out there as Evans seems to think.

    Wow, a little bit of confidence awakens the WOMAN in this young girl—Axel you don’t know what is about to hit you! Seriously this is so funny, and falls into that convergence theme I keep bringing up, but nobody seems to agree with. Not only is this parent and child relationships, growth, confronting situations that challenge the characters, but specifically somehow this tween newly confident girl wants to go to Souffle lingerie show, far above her age range. Interesting she knows about it, Ann has done a really good job of secondary promotion in that “P” of marketing. Unfortunately the product “P” is a grifter’s fake. Its’funny too and cute, hitting on all cylinders for a comic arc completion. Not only that but Axel is doing a fantastic job of charming Fay’s mom as well. She want’s Fay to co-star with him. Such a nice young man, contrary to a number of tch-tching fuddy duddies around these parts. Luann you did good work here young lady. Of course the next thing will show your dingbat side, but then human’s, comic or real, have more than one side to them. That is what makes them interesting in either world. Hope Fay, Axel, and Mrs. Garcia come back, at least Fay, and Axel anyway.

    Thirteen year old girls are definitely interested in boys and pretty lingerie. Nothing odd about that. For example, see http://www.gocomics.com/luann/1988/04/22

    As I mentioned before, Luann may have opened a Pandora’s Box. Young Fay is hot to trot and Luann has slipped to the category of observer.

    RebroxAnna: No, I hope it’s not a segue: Those things fall over too easily! (Reference to those Smoky Stover two-wheel contraptions) Seriously, other than a rather forced romantic interlude between Tiff and Les, the entire Soufflé lingerie episode appeared to be a total waste of time. This Fay arc, on the other hand, was quite promising, at least until this week, when it kind of turned into a version of John Grisham ’s the Whistler, in that, after a rough start, once it got going, nothing went wrong and everything went exactly as planned.

    Actually, I like the Fay arc. It’s just that this one didn’t end with a bang, just a whimper… And, no, I’m not ready to go back to Tiff and Les. With a shout out to Mordock999, I’m more than ready for another Tiff and Gunth arc. Just make sure the apartment is stocked with pizza and Star Trek tapes!

    I’m glad it’s Lu that’s trying to reign in Fay, just a little. Fay will accept Lu’s judgement and direction much better and faster than if it comes from the “Authority Figure” of Mom. And Fay needs a bit of tempering. Don’t go too far, too fast, too soon. Gradual steps…..

    I, too, would also like to know how Fay learned of Souflee, as well. Was Fay’s mom one of the “cutomers???” Hmmmm…..

    Rather disappointing to me today. If it is a segue, I hope Fay is NOT included because of her age. If is just to be “funny”, then I hope we start on some other arc…. even a Toni & Brad arc. My favorite choices for a new arc would be to have an arc with Tiffany and Mrs. Fogarty (with limited SL inclusion) or an arc that has Mr. Gray & Mrs. Berger, or an arc back at PCC with Jack & Nil.

    A nice path back to the Tiffany & Ann Eiffel arc. I hope Tiffany gets a handle for moving on with her life. Let Tiff’s Dad have a good time with AE for a little while – then she’ll take off for parts unknown.

    SO, we have that crossover. We’ve been wondering what the POINT of the re-appearance of Ann Eiffel and the Souffle Lingerie arc. Some of us in here thought the fragmented-seeming arcs that did not seem to have any conclusion and no connection to each other must have something to unite all arcs. Looks like the first arc-to-arc segment has appeared here. Either Luann told her about it during her girl talks or her mother brought a bag home. However, I don’t think it is Luann’s place to talk to her about sexy underwear which sole purpose is to entertain the guys in the bedroom – it is her mother’s. I hope Luann will only say these parties are strictly for mature women.

    Some may just see it as ‘Fay is too young for these things’. But it could also be because they are scams….or even more so….Ann’s been busted out of this particular scam…

    Maybe Luann should call in Tiffany for a consult. After all, Tiff is a specialist in provocative behavior.

    Something of a switch-er-oo, there! But, Luann is AWARE of the Soufflé Lingerie scam, whereas Fay is NOT!!

    Interesting reversal here … Luann is now being in the pull-it-back ‘mom-mode’ (but doing it nicely), and Fay doesn’t know about the scam involved, that’s all it is! Of course … girls her age will be curious about what the ‘grown women’ wear – ask any dad of a daughter – and not that that’s such a bad thing, it just happens as it will and has long before! Ask humanity – it happens… :)

    And coming up Monday:

    Mrs Fogarty ain’t the droid we’re looking for.

    It slowly dawns on Les that Tiffany is USING Him and not for “snuggling.”

    And All HADES Breaks loose when Gunther’s long lost father shows up to ask for a loan of 50 bucks because his Social Security check got “lost in the mail.” Gunther agrees to pay him $100 bucks if he’ll crash Irma and Al’s wedding and LOUDLY Object to their “Blessed Union.”

    I had hoped by now that Luann told her parents about the scam and they would have taken steps to shut it down. Or, Tiffany would have called Simone (CEO of SL) again, and she would’ve launched an investigation about the scam.

    How many more things does Ann Eiffel have to get away with before she’s stopped?

    So how is it that Fay knows about the lingerie parties? It suggests she spent a lot of time at the Fuse training and practicing and somehow caught wind of them. But that must have been early on because Fay doesn’t know that there won’t be any more lingerie parties.
