Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) | comment |
Avalon is a Canadian webcomic hosted on Keenspot, written and drawn by Josh Phillips. It was launched in November 1999 and officially ended in February 2007.Sixteen-year-old Ceilidh ("Kay-Lee") MacFarlene moves with her family to the fictional town of Avalon, Ontario, Canada from Ottawa. There, she starts Grade 11 at Avalon High School and becomes friends with six of the students there.She first meets Joseph Page and his best friend Alan Gunderson, then Ryan Aberdeen "The Geek To End All Geeks," the bubbly Helène Richer who constantly chases Alan, Alison Montgomery, and Phoebe Bradley - who prefers to be called "Feeb" - with a constant dislike of men.This Slice of Life webcomic features their time together in and out of Avalon High School.Not to be confused with Meg Cabot's young-adult novel and manga series Avalon High or the Mamoru Oshii film film of the same name. | |

Give Geeks a Chance | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_18805e9c | comment |
Give Geeks a Chance: This trope works out a little differently here: Ryan has a crush on Phoebe, but she doesn't reciprocate. He then meets her older sister Deirdre by chance. After they have a talk about Phoebe, he attempts to talk to Phoebe again at Alison's New Year's Eve party. However, this once again fails and he eventually gives up. It isn't until some time later, also completely by chance, that an intimate relationship blossoms between him and Deirdre. | |

Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_2740531a | comment |
She Cleans Up Nicely: When Joe picks up Ceilidh for their movie date, he sees her in her sleeveless red dress. Joe is floored at the change. Previously in the comic, Joe commented to Ceilidh (wearing a black turtleneck and plaid skirt at the time) how rare it is for her to wear skirts aside from her uniform. Ceilidh mistakenly wears a more formal sleeveless red dress to Alison's New Year's party during Grade 11. When Ceilidh voices her misjudgment about this, Joe insinuates that this is not such a bad thing "in retrospect." | |

The Reveal | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: A double whammy at the beginning of the second year. Ryan reveals that Joe, Alan and Phoebe used to be much closer back then before Alan began dating Helene and Phoebe began seeing a guy named Todd, who turned out to be an abusive Jerkass. After Todd cruelly broke up with Phoebe and spread rumors about her, he soon showed up at school wearing a neckbrace and casts. And how did that happen? Joe confesses to Ceilidh that he pushed Todd down the stairs. Remember the bearded guy trying to light up at Hildegarde's and driving Alison insane? He's Joe's father Jimmy Page! Officially his name on the cast page is James Page. This took Alison - and the readers - by total surprise. In retrospect, there is a Strong Family Resemblance between them. The beard throws you off. Phoebe reveals Deirdre's secret past to Ryan, namely Deirdre's pregnancy from her Jerkass ex-boyfriend Patrick back from her high school days. In the text ending, Ceilidh tells Joe that she was the one who talked Helène into tutoring Joe for final exams, admitting that "Helène would probably be better for [him] than [she] ever was." | |

Meaningful Name | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: There are a few: Ceilidh is a Gaelic name which means "an informal social gathering with folk music, singing, dancing, and storytelling." Deirdre is Irish, Gaelic, and possibly Celtic for "broken-hearted, sorrowful" and could also be translated as "fear" or "raging woman." Deirdre is also the name of one of the most famous women in Irish folklore, as a woman of great beauty with a tragic story; The Other Wiki describes it in detail. Ciaran is Gaelic for "little dark-haired one." | |

A Deconstructed Trope with Joe's parents, Jim and Hildegarde. Jim was initially in love with Hildegarde's sister Melissa but she was more focused on her academics and had no desire for a relationship. He and Hildegarde developed a friendship along the way and the two of them took a liking to each other and began dating. However, Jim never really got over Melissa. Then he met a younger woman named Erin during a business trip while he was going through a self-described "midlife crisis" of sorts and left his family, admitting to Hildegard that he sometimes felt like their marriage was a sham from the start. | |

Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_9df812ad | comment |
Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Deirdre is very noticeably taller than Ryan, by about half a head. Justified Trope here, as Ryan's still a growing teenage boy and Deirdre is at least three to four years older than him. | |

Halfway Plot Switch | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_ace24b2c | comment |
Halfway Plot Switch: At the end of the first year, Hildegarde opens up a coffee shop, and Alison begins to study psychiatry, which become their defining character traits. At the start of Year 2, the Backstory Ryan gives Ceilidh turns several of the early assumptions of the main cast on their heads, and piecing together the gaps becomes a major theme. Also, the rest of the Bradleys and, to a lesser extent, Hildegarde, graduate to the main cast. | |

Settle for Sibling: Ryan initially had a crush on Phoebe, who didn't reciprocate; eventually, he ends up in a relationship with her older sister Deirdre after (ironically enough) he had initially come to her for advice about Phoebe. A Deconstructed Trope with Joe's parents, Jim and Hildegarde. Jim was initially in love with Hildegarde's sister Melissa but she was more focused on her academics and had no desire for a relationship. He and Hildegarde developed a friendship along the way and the two of them took a liking to each other and began dating. However, Jim never really got over Melissa. Then he met a younger woman named Erin during a business trip while he was going through a self-described "midlife crisis" of sorts and left his family, admitting to Hildegard that he sometimes felt like their marriage was a sham from the start. | |

Take Back Your Gift | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_f13b2c16 | comment |
Take Back Your Gift: While they weren't going out - although it almost happened! - Ceilidh takes off the necklace to return it to Alan. He was actually okay with it since he is now under the assumption that she is a lesbian. Ceilidh drops the necklace in shock. | |

Running Gag | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: On the first day of school for Grades 11 and 12, someone points out to Ceilidh that a dryer sheet is stuck to the back of her vest. For OAC year, Ceilidh just outright brings it herself. She gives it to Phoebe as a symbolic gesture for a fresh start. Also see Overly Long Gag above. | |

Lady in Red | |
Avalon (1999) (Webcomic) / int_fdf7d23d | comment |
Ceilidh mistakenly wears a more formal sleeveless red dress to Alison's New Year's party during Grade 11. When Ceilidh voices her misjudgment about this, Joe insinuates that this is not such a bad thing "in retrospect." | |

Brick Joke: Phoebe tells Alan she thinks Ceilidh's a lesbian after an awkward exchange prompted by rumors about her sexuality; months later, Alan apologizes for giving Ceilidh a romantic token "before I found out...that you're a lesbian" and promptly gets drenched in punch. | |
