ComradeCosmobot posted:You realize, of course, that you will soon find yourself announcing your Gunnerkrigg-goon-ness to the world thanks to the avatar fairy... There have been update days where this thread comes so close to having a full page of GKC-only avatars that I've been afraid to post and ruin the streak. I was about to suggest Gunnergoon as a descriptive but The Firing Range probably already nabbed that one.

Goonerkrigg Court is the obvious answer. Watch the Forest start a loving war.

heenato posted:I'm thinking that the letter didn't actually have the recipient on it, so they just went with annie. Something like "Hey, Annie. There's mail addressed to your room here. doesn't say who. Can you come pick it up?" So theoretically, it could be for Renard.

My money's on Mort, if only because he was the last to receive a card with a heart on it. It only took a year for him to reciprocate. Or it's from Anthony because we have to end the book on a cliffhanger.

Maybe Bobby wrote it. I wanna see that fucker try his hand at writing a love letter. Your eyes glimmer like the eyes of a pigeon. Your hair is as soft and lustrous as the wing feathers of a pigeon, and as red as the body of a pigeon that has been mauled by a feral cat, lying in an ever-spreading puddle of its own vital fluids. Your radiant smile is very much unlike a pigeon's, as pigeons, like robots, do not smile.

The letter is obviously from Cityface. He couldn't hold pen and paper so he had to dance on a keyboard and print it.

Okay, so if the argument is being made that it's not for Annie due to the ambiguity of the mail announcement and it being Annie's room, then that sorta implies that it's not common knowledge that Kat is living there yet, at least not known by Lindsey (or whoever notified Annie over the speaker). So who knows that Kat is there? The robots might, but we don't know if that came up in conversation with them (or I'm forgetting). Also given the nature of the letter it seems likely that it's from a robot (so definitely not Jones), which makes it seem more likely that it's for the Angel, or it's just for Annie and from this guy.

I don't think you can make the argument the letter is actually for Kat (or anyone else)-- if it had someone else's name on it, Annie wouldn't be opening it. It's probably from Red or something. "HA HA FOOLED YOUR DUMB BUTT WHO WOULD EVER LOVE YOU"

I support the theory that Kat knew about this, or set someone up to send that letter. Just look at her face in panel 3. SHE KNOWS. SHE PLOTS.

It could be from one if the fairies in that class she audited, in which case she'll never know, since they don't have names to sign the letter with yet. She will always have it be a mystery and her admirer will feel spurned by her!

I find it interesting how everyone overanalyzes and double-guesses stuff with this webcomic. More often than not, things end up being pretty much as they appear, without all these crazy hidden meanings or something else. (The letter is from Paz, because she is actually a lesbian and in love with Annie now that she's not going out with that one guy she really doesn't like  )

Guess who got a sweet package in the mail today! I finally got around to buying the third volume and, to be amusingly relevant, there's an extra picture in the back of the book featuring Boxbot on fire while holding a letter.  Also the Reynardine plush is super cute so go buy one right now.

I don't think it will be from the robots, they see Kat as an angel, a divine being, which is something to be revered not desired.
