Line 1: {{work}} {{quote\| This world's high schools are different...though no less capable of cruelty.}} This interlude, featuring art by Jason Waltrip, is a [[Crossover]] with Campbell's webcomic ''[[Fans]]'', featuring [[Alternate Universe]] (specifically, ''Fans'' universe) counterparts of ''Penny and Aggie'' characters. In this world, as a brief narrative prologue explains, the rise to prominence of "geek super-soldiers" (i.e., the quasi-governmental paranormal threat agency AEGIS and its Team Alpha response unit) has moved SF/fantasy enthusiasts to the top of the teenage social ladder. Nevertheless, other sorts of teenagers can still feel out of place. Line 17: * [[Filler Strip]]: Two at arc's end, to further extend Lagacé's Christmas break: A ''Penny and Aggie''-themed [[Crossword Puzzle]], which has become an annual tradition for both this webcomic and ''[[Fans]]''. "Oh, That Helen!", a one-off, out-of-continuity [[Crossover]] with ''[[Something Positive]]'', drawn ''and'' written by Randy Milholland, has Davan MacIntire [["The Reason You Suck" Speech\|tell off]] Helen over IRC for her self-pity, following which a sexually predatory "Redneck Tree" (a ''[[Something Positive]]'' [[Running Gag]]) comforts her and suggests they [[Dead Baby Comedy\|meet in person]]. * [[Fish Out of Water]] * [[Fun T-Shirt]]: Fred sports one with the slogan "Secretly gay," an instance of verbal [[Irony]]. * [[The Glasses Gotta Go]]: [[Inverted Trope\|Inverted]]. Penny wears "20-20 prescription" glasses (and her hair in a bun) in order to fit in. Even [[High School Rejects\|Bob and Elmer]] are spotted with "geek" glasses. * [[Hide Your Lesbians]]: [[Inverted Trope\|Inverted]]. In the ''Fans'' version of Belleville High, gays and lesbians are out, proud and popular. {{quote\| '''Penny:''' [Sara's] so cool, so sure of herself, all the time. I wish I was a lesbian.}} * [[Homeschooled Kids]]: Di was one (but not her ''Penny and Aggie'' counterpart, who appears briefly in [[Penny and Aggie ~~(Webcomic)/Stickjocks~~/Recap/Stickjocks\|Stickjocks]]). * [[Out-of-Genre Experience]]: ''[[Penny and Aggie]]'' is a teen dramedy set in a realistic universe; this arc, being set in the world of ''Fans'', features [[Science Fiction]] and [[Fantasy]] elements. * [[The Pollyanna]]: Laura (whom Di and Shannon secretly hate). Line 29: {{reflist}} ~~[[Category:Penny and Aggie (Webcomic)/Recap]]~~ [[Category:Recap]] [[Category:Penny and Aggie/Recap]] [[Category:{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]
