Aren't we due to meet her dad, soon? Annie mentioned (via voice over) after her first year that she wouldn't see her dad for another 2 years. Also, we seemed to have lost her as a narrator. \/\/\/ Thank you. I got lost, time-wise. Dodgeball fucked around with this message at 05:26 on Dec 6, 2010 |

Fangz posted:Driven mad with power, Annie unleashes her massive psychic abilities upon the Court, and then, humanity as a whole. Can Kat and Smitty, the last survivors of Gunnerkrigg, possibly stop her in time? Can Boxbot redeem himself at last? Probably not. I had been debating rewriting the plot to Carrie with Annie in her place, back when Reynardine was breaking all of Annie's hopes and dreams, but decided against it. It would have fit, right then and there.

Did Annie actually start that fire? It looks like she does (similar art as when she does other things with her mind), but it could just be stylization.

Man, now I feel terrible about being down on Annie earlier. She is in a pretty poo poo situation here, no two ways about it. Only now do I realize, it is me, I am the boxbot.

Eglamore is the Dragon Slayer (even if it is an honorary title). I'd hope he would know his way around a jet of flame. I expect him to land in front of her next page and shut her down somehow.

I'm pretty sure this is blinkerstone fire, but if not, maybe Annie is a member of the Prodigy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmin5WkOuPw (And the inspiration for one of the best Venture Bros. references to date.) Brannock posted:Stages of grief: Better.

Eh, I figure she's just making a wall of flame so that he won't chase after her. She really just wants to be left alone by the court right now, but I doubt she'd actually harm anybody.

Holy poo poo. Anger and lashing out I was expecting, yes. A Vietnam-sized magic napalm strike I was not. Annie's growing up so fast.  Edit: If this doesn't lead to the obvious fire-head girl joke I may be sad for a bit.
