Aww! Dee’s already hugging everyone! I hadn’t noticed, but she actually got taller (compared to Blake) over the years. And just look at Vatchel’s neck! It’s so… uh… wormy?

Cut from the cast? I wouldn’t say that He (she?) just changed a little before appearing :D
Thanks so much for rerunning Little Dee, Christopher! I’m especially enjoying your behind-the-scenes comments.
I have this one! Trying to figure out where to hang it in my new house.
