The pic on Adopt-a-Prodigy was brought up in the "ask for explanations" thread, and it's textbook JAFAAC, so voting to pull regardless of replacement. Actually kinda leaning toward calling this for BUPKIS but maybe someone can come up with something.

Pull but not BUPKIS. I think we're going there too fast

Not sure if this falls in This Image Is Not an Example because she's cheating via telepathy but funnily enough that would fall under the remit of the super power variant but she's pretending to be super smart.

[up] I think that one could work[tup]

[down] I think the top panel is fine; to me is gives more context to the "adopting" (in this case being "up for adopting") part.

[up] It might not need the first panel tbf I just thought without it Anya looked a bit hard to see as she's mostly hidden behind the crossword.

It's way too texty. Maybe we only need the first panel (or first two, depending on how you look at it; the top part where the full girl is visible).

13 minus either the first or last panel works for me in lieu of anything else.

[up] In that case, definitely 23.1, because 23.2 doesn't show the "adopting" part IMO (still think 13 is better than both of them, but I will of course respect the consensus if it is decided otherwise)
