Autochthon is a word I learned from the SF writings of David “I have a Classics degree and am eager to use it” Drake. I used to check dictionaries for that and fungible to see if they were reasonably complete. :)
(Autochthonous means that your species evolved there. Humans are autochthonous to Earth, but a future human born on Mars would be a native there but not a Martian autochthon.)
Dakota’s award will be for making LSH look even more ‘humble’ in comparison, and I doubt either Dakota or Phoebe are going to leave entirely satisfied.
Dana does a fantastic job in conveying Dakota’s guarded, smug sense of superiority… her eyes, smirk, placement of arms/hands, and shifting her weight onto one leg like that.

I suspect Marigold may have magically enhanced Phoebe’s vocabulary at some point.

How would Dakota know about cool? She can’t even keep a cool head. And not just because of her hair.

There are no legs under Phoebe’s skirt. Is she levitating?

I’ve always been good at spelling and I think that’s awesome, so there.

Spelling autochthonous isn’t so hard. Now, spelling CHTHONIC, that’s tricky because the CH is silent.
(Somewhere I saw autochthon as student slang at some British university for what Americans might call a “towny”.)

I’m beginning to wonder what “Most Enchanted Lands” sounds like when Marigold speaks that phrase.

So when do we get the Phoebe anticoolated action figure?

Phoebe does hang out with a cooler unicorn. Yeah, I said it.

Dakota looks like she’s really enjoying herself. Without Phoebe, her life would be very empty. I love Phoebe’s hairstyle. It’s so well drawn.

When my car broke down, I took it to an autochthonous.

Hey, wait a minute. “Thee” is a singular pronoun.

Typical Dakota.
