^ Yeah, they talked about it while hanging out on the roof right after Annie came back and Kat forgave her for being kind of hard to be friends with, sometimes.

So this chapter is apparently about Red getting a name. It occurs to me that we've got two other characters (Robot, Shadow 2) that really need better names, too. Wonder if that will come up.

Robot has a name, though. It's just not what his friends call him.

It's not so much that he has metal parts, rather that she was storing her lockpicks inside his body. (even before he took control of it). They've popped up later, like here and here. Plus, as we saw with the tooth, she's taken to storing other things in him, too.

I assume ymgve means in the sense of the forest/court divide. The forest (or at least Ysengrin) seems to abhor the artificial objects and substances produced by the court, so it's interesting that Reynardine carries them in his body. Not that he had a choice since Annie told him to, but he hasn't made a fuss about it either.

It's obvious that Reynard prefers the court to the forest, so this is probably low on the list of things Ysengrin would prod/bitch about.

Hmm, she has to check the expiration date on food? So obviously, she doesn't eat or drink much, or she doesn't need to!!

Or she doesn't like candy. Take your pick.

I love the idea that a failed-human-copy shadow creature loves sweets. Also, I wonder who gave Jones the candy. Maybe the doctor that runs the simulation programs that's so enamored with her.

Holy crap, the whole bag? Shadow has been a real boy for barely a day and he's already making out like a bandit! Auntie Jones: the best auntie.

I'm guessing that Jones' plan involves the other 'transfer students' from the woods, so they'll end up bumping into Red?

They track students via food, so, might be foreshadowing (ha ha).

Wait, she asked what he liked to eat, and then pulled out the bag of sweets?

How many different types of food does she have in her desk?

This is like the joke about imported video games where the U.S. cover has to have every character snarling, sexed-up, or both.

Also, oddly enough, Kat's nose and mouth have combined to form the bismuth symbol.
