Chanelle is referencing the logic puzzle Theseus and the Minotaur.
She loves this stuff.

Keisha: Wait, George, YOU'RE mad, too?
George: Uuuh, YEAH. Duh.
George: "Oooh, lookit us, look at AAALLL the stuff our new PARENTS are doing, we're so special and great and learning Chinese!"
Keisha: Tsch. Like they weren't right there in the orphanage with us, like, TWO MONTHS ago.
George: RIGHT?!
Keisha: Hey, so, I was gonna go find Chanelle and hang out. Wanna come?
George: Is she gonna talk about parents all day?
Keisha: No, WORSE.
Chanelle: Okay, so, the Minotaur moves two spaces, and Theseus moves one. But the Minotaur only moves if he can get CLOSER to Theseus, horizontally or vertically. Now we have to escape the maze!
Keisha: Told you it was worse.
George: Don't we do enough math in CLASS?
Chanelle: NO! Not at all!
George: Uuuh, YEAH. Duh.

To my fellow Dragalia Lost players, Chanelle is basically Xiao Lei.
I really feel bad for these kids, the adopted ones don’t even realize they’re doing it and it’s really hurting these two. Keisha really needs parenting, and Georgie just honestly needs family love.
I’m hoping that someone along the way (maybe Todd?) realizes this is happening and sets at least Selkie and Amanda on a path to include them more.
Oh, so it’s OK to do game-math when you’re fighting the evil Baron, but not when it’s a solitaire game? Come on, George.
I have nothing to say.
That said, I hurt for the betrayal of being to the were going to be included, … then weren’t. That suxor.
Ah, yes, the old “I want to avoid social drama right now so I will hang out with the math nerd because they have no social life.” I remember this well.
I was the math nerd.
Until the Math-Nerd starts a Shakespearean dramatic reading of the first one hundred digits of pie. Think William Shatner, “If…we …could, ….”
Our math-nerds were FUN!
Weird. I have _Mad Mazes_ (which had the original T&M maze) and _Super Mazes_ (another book by the same person), and was actually looking through them earlier today.
