Let's see here?? Non sequitur means; does not follow.

Sooooo, Bellyache spelled with an B, does not follow nellyache spelled with an n.........................
N follows b in the alphabet and not the other way around.

This is probably wrong but is the only answer I can think of. If so, give us a little hint there ughaibu.......................OK

Re: Riddles

Normally these riddles involve swapping the initial letters, this one swaps internal letters. If you figure out who Nelly is, I think you'll get it.

Re: Riddles

In fact, it doesn't really swap letters but along those lines.
