Tiny devikins... too much cute... head gonna asplode!

So...any devikin with a sister basically has a twin of a different age?

That's gotta make for some awkward confusions.

Basically!

This explains the early title "Penny Dreadful" then.

So I'm guessing Kit and Poe haven't known each other that long if Kit still doesn't know what Poe's full name is.

MSperoni · 12-17-2012, 12:35 AM

Poe's full name is Poe.

That's the...

Assuming you went with the early title of "Penny Dreadful," was this going to be the point where we finally saw the relevance, or did Kit's name change when the title did?

MSperoni · 12-17-2012, 09:09 PM

Kit's name was always gonna be Kit, though at the start of the comic Brian suggested I change it to Penny to go with the title "Penny Dreadful". I didn't want to, because I liked Kit a LOT more than Penny...

However, as the comic went along I thought it would be funny if she had a really normal sounding name, or a name that didn't suit her, and she called herself "Kit" instead. Up until recently her name was going to be "Mary" but I remembered Brian suggesting Penny/Penelope so that's what I went with.

Having her be named "Mary Kit" reminded me too much "Mary Kate" and I didn't want anyone to think she was a reference to one of the Olsen Twins...

Also I liked that both her and Poe's named started with a P.

Well, right. We know that, but Kit doesn't know whether Poe is short for anything, right? Wouldn't a sister normally know that kind of thing?

... I'm probably overthinking this and I just know I'm going to feel like a complete idiot when I figure out the joke.
