Hello and thank you, @ceruleanvulpine!

This photograph is really confusing from a chronological standpoint. According to Quigley’s testimony, the Quagmire fire happened AFTER the events of “The Reptile Room”, while Gustav was murdered BEFORE. So it doesn’t really make sense that one of his movies’ file would contain a note about Isadora’s and Duncan’s enrollment at Prufrock Preparatory School.

“I walked,” Quigley said. “When itbecame clear that no one was going to rescue me, I felt around in the dark and realized I was in a sort of passageway. Therewas nowhere else to go so I started walking. I’ve never been so frightened in my life, walking alone insome dark passageway my parents had kept secret. I couldn’t imagine where it would lead.” […] “To the house of a herpetologist,” Quigleysaid. “At the end of the passageway was a secret door that opened into an enormous room, made entirely of glass.The room was filled with empty cages, but it was clear that the room had once housed an enormouscollection of reptiles.”“We’ve been there!” Klaus cried in amazement.“That’s Uncle Monty’s house! He was our guardian untilCount Olaf arrived, disguised as/" "As a lab assistant,” Quigley finished.“I know. His suitcase was still there.”[TheSlippery Slope, Chapter Eight]

There are two ways to solve this problem:

Beatrice Baudelaire got hold of the photograph and put it in the file after she finally left the town where she was waiting for her children. The reason she got involved in the research related to the Quagmire triplets is because they were now two “survivors of the fire” as described in the Snicket file: somebody mistook the Quagmire fire with the Baudelaire fire and found Beatrice instead of Quigley. Sally Sebald herself says she has no idea what the photograph is in the file. Given she was very involved in the direction of “Zombies in the snow”, it’s more plausible to think the photograph was added to the file AFTER Gustav’s death.

Meet Walker!! Named because I caught him in Quiet Cave on the PokéWalker last year. Walker is a Naughty lad and is "proud of his power." Given all the trouble it took, walking millions of steps (LITERALLY) over nearly 8 months in order to get him, I'd say both he and I are pretty proud of how strong we are.

I decided on this route (literally) because it's novel, sick as hell, and adheres to the spirit of the DexXL project–even though he technically violates the Origin clause. However, Quiet Cave is "located" in Sinnoh on Serebii, so if ya squint. . . he's totally fine dw about it.

I kind of accidentally journaled the entire adventure I went on to obtain Walker. When my art improves, I hope to turn it into another side blog–hopefully a comic–detailing some of what happened.

You barge in and see a familiar face. A friendly face.
