Just go with me here, I'll explain. <br><br>It seems unlikely that Felicia would be one to keep her mouth shut about something as heinous as this, therefore, Ozy overheard Felicia complaining and gave her some advice. Besides telling her to nix the desk full of bugs idea because a) that's what Millie wanted in the first place and b ) it would inherently involve Felicia touching many bugs, Ozy suggests that Felicia get Millie really good gifts, something only someone who knows Millie really well could get her, giving her several ideas. Of course, once Millie finds out who got the gifts for her, it will blow her mind that Felicia of all people could know this much. While Ozy gets Felicia a few little things, what Ozy really gets her is the greatest gift of all: the ability to epicly mess with Millie's head. <br><br>Why would Ozy do all this? He is a dragon by adoption. By now he should have some insight into the subtle art of conspiracy. <!--emo&--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... minati.png' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='dragon_illuminati.png' /><!--endemo--><br><br>Of course it's far more likely that Ozy is Millie's secret Santa and she just refuses to believe it. But that's not as much fun. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table> <!--QuoteEEnd--><br> Why woudl Felicia do this?

Also, Millie's pose and eyes are great in the last panel.

[Bocaj Claw]

Whats the rate of exchange?

[Dr. Doog]

it's kind of like yen to pounds

[Bocaj Claw]

What does the mean for the ethnocentric/ignorant amongst us?

[Softpaw]

It means that you might be able to exchange all your brownie points for a single sandwich. If the market is feeling extremely generous.

[Gizensha]

Current exchange rate of pound to yen is...<br><br>1 GBP = 204.936 Yen.<br><br>(according to xe.com)<br><br>[edit] However, I think the market is slightly more complex than that. A £4 mag I subscribe to retails for 2,150 Yen, for example, and console games (UK price typically £40.) typically retail for less than 8000 Yen, it seems.

[Dr. Doog]

what's your point? 2150 * 10 = 8000

[DesertFoxCat]

Fuzzy math? <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[Muninn]

And thus did Doog successfully make the mathematically advantaged cover up their ears and shout "la la la I can't hear you".
