Tollymain posted:Coyote never lies though. He says it can split the earth, that means that is true. The question is how literal that statement is, and in what sense it will occur. Since people keep bringing that up, I've been pondering for some time that maybe this was how he created the Annan Waters in the first place. Perhaps even with this tooth. Perhaps this could have some significance. Perhaps not.

That's the complication... unless the downside is the sword-tooth laughs all the time, especially at inopportune moments.

Okay so, the Court killed the elf, but it trapped Jeanne down there, and Diego refereed to her as the sacrifice, not the elf. (Though maybe that was just to him) Jeanne has said that all that is left of her is hate, so I can't imagine she's what makes the waters impassible, why would she protect the Court? So maybe the device did literally split her heart as it did to her lover, maybe two with a bond were needed to power it? Mutt seemed to know she was trapped by it, but didn't seem to recognize she was part of it, he didn't think she'd be able to cross the river. Anyway, If they manage to remove the device it would set Jeanne free, which would be bad for the Court, which might be Coyote's plan. Haha chaos! I bet removing the barrier will give the forest control of all the trees the court has smuggled over as well. General Ysengrin reigns  I've also been wondering if this is going to be the last year of the story, it seems we're getting close to a confrontation with Jeanne and Annie's father is supposed to come back this year as well isn't he? Or maybe Tom has ideas for years, like, Kat becomes a robot, maybe Mort gets a cell phone, has Annie ever owned a bear? Or, how 'bout a crazy wedding? Where something happens and doo doo doo doo doo...

Jeanne doesn't protect the court so much as kill anyone who goes down into the crevice indiscriminately.

100 HOGS AGREE posted:Jeanne doesn't protect the court so much as kill anyone who goes down into the crevice indiscriminately. While I agree she doesn't protect the court, she hasn't killed anyone. She cut Annie's face, and attacked her and Parley later, but Parley could tell she was holding back. And Ysengrin went down there and killed the treacherous fairies, not Jeanne.

Hahaha shiiiiiiiiiiit. I was going to make a joke about perspective and how "but, see, the way Parley's swinging the sword and the way her feet are planted means that it might be unclear from the way things are drawn because Robot's not Boxbot" but there's really no way to do it. That is most definitely Robot, being sliced in half by Coyote's fangtooth. No ambiguity there.

Haha, "we ran some tests with it". Wasn't that just a provisory body for Robot anyway? Now Kat can get him a new one, "ressurecting" him and making the guy even more obssessed with angels.

Ahahahahhaa holy poo poo Parley, yes let's just knock this magical sword against a [semi-]living thing and see what happens! Only thing that could have been funnier is if she dropped it and it bore a hole straight to the center of the earth, then magma came up through the floor. I'm not worried about robot, though. He's gonna get a new body and this one will probably make a fine box of staples or something.

Parley asks out loud how sharp it can really be, sword cuts into Robot. Watch it be voice-activated or at the very least semi-sentient and decided this would be the funniest thing.

He's pretty tight with Shadow 2 and has never really preached anything against the forest. Diego's obsession with Jeanne never really translated to a hatred of the forest to his 'children' I don't think.
