The defining characters of "Alice in Sunderland" is that it is ambigious esotaric.

"Eightball" is exploring sexuality and questions fetishes and the ideas/qualities behind that. The main character is searching for something more, and questions the "Sense" of anything mundane around him, such as two men sitting in the theatre or the line to a restroom. Even as he is watching the films, he critiques the purpose as it doesn't show actual sex.

"Boneville" is situation around a group of there characters who were run out of town after a bad buisness dealing. All three have their own baggage and regrets. The rich one says "how could they do this to me, you can't do anything to a rich person that they don't want!" and the other two characters seem unaffected by his situation as it doesn't apply to them. The characters appear to be very cartoony with realistic backgrounds with other worldy things such as a human and a dragon.

"Every Girl is the End of the World for Me" is situated around a man who first introduces us to women in his life. We only get his POV and about a short sentence about them at most, so we have to make an assumption of his perspective and if he is genuine to think these things.

Assumptions that I am bringing to the work of "Fables" that effecting change the work is that I played the game "The Wolf Among Us" which is based off of this comic. I already assumed it would be in the same setting, which is the fictional world within our world, and how they've intergratedd secretly into New York/our society. You also make assumptions off of every existing character nearly, as they are also based off their respective fairy tale. Like, Biby Wolf is the big bad wolf from "The Three Little Pigs".

The only thing I could connect all of these things too were asumptions and relativity. Alice and Fables refrense something we are familiar with. Bones I'm genuinely not sure. "Every Girl..." and "Eightball" are compaprable because they have to do with relationships andd romance/sexuality.
