okay but consider:

Tugger and Babygriz as siblings.

(Does that make regular Grizabella their mother? Very possibly! Or is regular Grizabella his sister who’s just aged up a bit? or are chorus Tugger and Babygriz the kids of regular Tugger? and/or regular Griz? so many angst possibilities.)

And of course you can factor Munkustrap into this if you like:

I am slightly emotional because I LOVE Marcquelle but I'm also happy bcos bye bye street cat tugger? I'm so confused and I feel kinda bad that he was given this role that a LOT of people disliked. He pulled it off well But good luck Marcquelle, your talent will take you far.
