i may have totally forgotten to factor in episode 11 + i agree with you that that puts them more around the same age characterisation-wise. nah i think i get what you mean!! karen is so not here (and neither am i tbh) for being treated like a little girl who can't play with the big boys (not to say she thinks it's bad to be a girl just that she's going to let them all know that she's capable and able to play with the boys and that there's nothing wrong with being a girl etc) and i think wesley was trying to prove (mostly to himself) that he could play with the big boys too. episode 11 was definitely a big turning point in terms of if you'd possibly underestimated karen.

oh man, the there's another post further down about the floorplans and we've basically decided magic is involved because it's been driving us all insane. but at this point i'd settle for at least the birthdays of the main cast. how old is claire??? i don't even want to think about trying to pin it down???
