My guess would be that he is telling her answers in the first panel (maybe to court her), she tags him along after class, he thinks he will be getting some as a "thank you" in the third panel, but she has him do her assignment instead.

As often seen in the series, subverting an expectation of the time, and having her "weaponize" her femininity for personal gains (without ever really selling out to men).

Edit: nvm, apparently I misunderstood the meaning of "tween"

Are your tweens (as in 20-something year olds) living with you and attending middle school? 😄 I would hope they can ready themselves just fine.

Guess you meant children or young teens

How is a parent in bumfuck nowhere, Russia, supposed to do that, exactly?

I am as pro-Russian-exit as probably most here, but that is a delusional proposition. That's like saying you were an office clerk in Wyoming, and could end the Iran attacks anytime. You and the Russian rando have pretty much the same leverage in my books.

oh no

So this one is actually called in english what the other is called in both sc. latin and german - and they even look similar enough.

Curious. Maybe they are called that in some regions after all.

Edit: see parent comment, the following apparently is false.

It's just that "Lachmöwe" is a notorious false friend in German, hence my assumption.

Fyi, it's called a "black-headed gull".

And "Lachmöwe" in German does not mean "laughing" gull either, but "puddle" gull, (Lache im Sinne von Pfütze, kleines stilles Gewässer)

Edit: well, egg on my face. Its latin genus name is ridibundus, meaning laughing, and the German name is a transliteration of that. So it's a false false friend that I (and other biologists I know) seem to have fallen for. Wikipedia references an ornithological work from 1971 for the "laughing" interpretation.

Who uses aluminium for canned foods? They're even called tins as well because their made from tinplate (aka tinned steel).

Drinks are a different beast.
