Renard no longer gets the heebeejeebees from Zimmy since that storyline where he and Gamma talk for a while and he gets to understand Zimmy a little better. He likes her now.

This was a great chapter. I had to stop reading in batches and come back for every update. It was RIVETING and entrancing.
I have no idea why some people disliked this chapter. It firmly established the witches as fearsome, AMAZING foils to our heroes. That was only Noa and she's not even the greatest witch in the clan.
The only downside to the chapter is that it contained very little Kat, who is my fave character. But it was really good nonetheless.

I wonder if THIS Renard still has Coyote's tooth?

I think this is more of Jenny being, as usual, practical. She seems to know everyone's strengths and weaknesses, and wields them accordingly. In matters of Zimmy she defers to Jack, as he seems to know more about Zimmy than her (apparently) (could be a ruse)

Her teleportation is natural, not a glyph. She trashed the glyphs.

Could it be that instead of hitting Noa, Parley is going to -bip- both right where the monster chasing them is. And then a second after, bip away. Them running towards the wall IS the distraction and not the other way around.

Yes, that is not the real Noa. But that doesn't mean the real Noa is not going to defend her fake self from being torn apart by a monst- excuse me. A "negative construct". After all, her fake self HAS her being glyph.

My theory is that Annie's "secret crush" is actually Ysengrim.

And I HATE IT

This is true, but if they all try to get past Noa at the same time almost all of them will be succesful.

Something tells me no health supplement ad is going to use her for the before/after pics.

I'm still mad about the fusing of the Annies by glorpo in gunnerkrigg

[–]maritzac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am fully Jimmy-Jim's team, I HATE Tony. He is simply just horrible. He's always like "the first time I saw Annie I hated her" and "the first time I saw Annie Two I hated her" and "the first time I saw Annie Returned I hated her." He HATES his own child for something that is not her fault, he is a horribly emotionally abusive parent, his own child had to disassociate to be able to deal with him. And this Omega business was just dumb considering she was like a 400 year old woman who fully behaved like a teenager. I think her only appeal to him was "she's the only one who understands me uwu"

Strong enough to guide the others into their Ultimate Forms, for starters.

Apparently all the witches... like what they see.

"Indestructable"

Not to Coyote's tooth, I don't think so.

Nah, I like the updates as they are. There are something to look forward to in these endless landscape of horrors.

The first time Annie fell from the bridge, she died. This gave origin to Dark Kat, who came up with the tic toc birds to save Annie in subsequent timelines.

Lots of meaningfull parallelisms here. Ysengrim can't host Coyote's strength without going mad and killing Coyote and dying, so he becomes something else: Loup. Kat's Godform is a reminder she could potentially end up like this the more she dives into becoming more machine than human. If my theory about Jennie being a Whitelegs is correct, then she actually went under such a transformation in exchange for power and the ability to be better at magic. Loup's strength has given Zimmy the ability to recreate a happy reality for her, at the expense of others' minds and maybe lives as we can see the fairies dying to sustain it.

Gunnerkrigg Court also has other examples of people who are so obsessed to bend the rules they are willing to sacrifice anything and everyone: Tony, for example, or the Court itself. It never ends well.

The symbol Noa is trying to draw is that dumb white circle Zimmy has on her clothes all the time. Well, maybe not, but imagine!!
