            I seem to be in some type of temporal displacement when it comes to tracking the Mongoose, for I see what I would imagine is Kagome from Inuyasha, or at the very least some type of Rumiko Takahashi character.

          Somewhat better. I like their chemistry, but it doesn’t make me want to go “D’awwwww…” I’m thinking more on the lines of “satisfying” but a bit more touchy-feely.

      Hmm, what’s the common factor in these two relationships?

      Conclusion: Walky is adorable. And he brings out the adorable in others.

Here's an entertaining cite at the bottom of the first page
The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
603 U.S. 593, 630 (2024).

London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.
