She did call on the phone. Well, maybe not Ekans, but random numbers that might have been Ekans’ number. If Ekans had a more random number then maybe she would have gotten her call.
None of the other children seemed surprised in Monday’s strip when Modest yelled out a Pokemon name. Maybe her name really is Ekans.
Been a while since I had a Chocodile so I went down to the convenience store.
But then that clerk acted something like a jerk told me that they wouldn’t make any more.
[Chorus]
Just when you think that you’ll lose control,
Just when life starts to take its toll,
In a new friend will stroll.
Oh, here she goes Ekans.
I should have known,
Should have known
Should have known Ekans
But here she goes Ekans.
Oh, here she goes Ekans.
It’s simply proven, put some Twinkies in the oven but first you put some chocolate on top.
You’ll only fake them for this is not how you make them, and then you get to see Jake’s head pop.
[Chorus]
Oh what a bummer when I went and lost her number and I couldn’t find her making random calls.
But how excited when we two were reunited meeting outside of the school hall.

None of the other children seemed surprised in Monday’s strip when Modest yelled out a Pokemon name. Maybe her name really is Ekans.
Or maybe the girl has just accepted “Ekans” as her new nickname. There are far worse Pokemon you could be called.
Huh. It’s been a while since we saw her lower body – is that the snake equivalent of pants or a jacket?
I didn’t do a strip about it, but it’s a single leg of sweat pants that Jake sewed up for her.
I meant one-or-the-other, as far as what she wears it for – that is, would she still be wearing it if it wasn’t winter-jacket weather?
She probably wouldn’t wear it except for the snow. Except now that she’s getting used to clothes she might start wearing them more? We’ll see.
Wait…how does Modest move around with her scales covered?
No idea.
Cartoon physics.
Because she is a magic snake. Duuuuuuh!
JK it’s just one of those things you don’t think about.
MAGIC! Yeah, she /is/ a magical creature.
EEEKAAAAAANNNNSSS!!!!
Huh. I ignored snakes getting bigger, but… is it just me, or are their eyes more orange now, too?
…nah, probably just me.
No, definitely just me.
Actually, they are. But not for any reason. My color palette shifts a little every now and then.
I’m glad Modest found her friend. Take that Sneaky Snake!
Next strip: attempts to get the guilty snake to apologise!
Modest: SAY. YOU’RE. SORRY! And STOP IGNORING ME! Grrrrrrr…
“Ekans”: Perhaps my mother could help – she does a mean French plait!
Modest: Oooh… collective punishment! That might just work!
Other snakes: *!!!* *start nudging and coiling around the guilty snake threateningly*
Guilty snake: :{ *hangs head* sssssorry… :{
Modest: Yay for peer pressure!
“Ekans”: Divide and rule! *fistbump*
>:=)>
hmm… i wonder who that “someone” is?
Been a while since I had a Chocodile so I went down to the convenience store.

4 stars
Is Ekans okay? Her left eye in that last panel looks a little off.
She had a stroke.
