Remember when Alexis mentioned that X always gets weird roommates, in Strip #196? I introduced that in the first place as a hint towards this. Children of prophecy always seem to collect bizarre traveling companions in stories, so I figured it would make sense if that's something children of prophecy naturally do. And meanwhile, here we are at Strip #800, with the pattern of the hundred strips completely shattered! Oh, well . . . I don't really regret it. It was always unintentional, after all.
