apologies if this has already been asked, I didn't see it in the past couple of pages, but does anyone know which chapter it is that paz alludes to (when they all snuck out together)? i can't remember off the top of my head and i dont want to read through the entire comic looking for it.

It's this one: http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=900 ( http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=923 this is when Kat's nice to her).

Chapter 34, Faraway Morning. But really a GC archive crawl isn't the worst thing you can spend your free time engaging in.

thanks! and i agree, but the issue here is a lack of free time more so than a particular aversion to rereading the thing

the important thing here is that Kat got a love letter from another person. She is a higher order of being, and deserves better than an inefficient appliance

The interaction between Jack and Annie kind of bugged me in that chapter. Like she was apologizing for accidentally seducing him or something. It wasn't a huge deal, but the way it played out kind of rubbed me the wrong way.

the whole setup was an "elaborate" plot to get him to try to kiss her so she could turn him down, the whole point was that it was kinda silly and weird. it also (imo) showed a little bit of the forest bleeding into annie, the whole thing was very forest-logic

that is, its supposed to be kind of odd, because neither of them are entirely human anyway.

From a young teenagers thought point Annie's plan was probably sound and clever. Later on hindsight she realized how dumb it was. That's part of the reason why I like this comic so much. The actions of each character reflect their age very well and make sense in their mindsets. I can't wait for Friday. I hope Paz has some happy moments to level the stuff from before.

We have decided to decline your offer of a butt kicking.
I really don't think it's going to end well for Paz. I mean, Kat reacted really strongly negatively to Paz thinking she was into girls. (Headband, occasional awkwardness around Annie) Confessions are tough to react to period. Add in that they're barely teenagers and Kat is uncomfortable with being thought gay and, yeah, no happy ending for Paz.

I'd be happy to be wrong though.

I really dig this one, has anyone claimed it?
Also this is it, this is the most adorable page in gunnerkrigg court.
Sadly now I'm just scared it's going to end in heartbreak, I don't think Kat is certain of her sexuality enough to actually think her answer through (which totally makes sense since she's like fourteen).

I'm at the expo this weekend, are there any UK goons who want any merch/books but don't want to pay Topataco's international shipping? I'm already picking up at least three copies of Annie in the Forest for myself and my siblings. Cost to you would be cover price plus shipping, no markup or anything (that'd just be wrong)

YES yes yes please please :swoon:
I'd really love a copy of Annie in the Forest - I was hoping to get to the expo but I'm being hauled to an event Ooop North so I can't make it... I don't have PMs, would you like my email?

Email would be fine, I'll keep a list. For something as small as a single comicbook I can just buy it and take payment after expo. Also means if there's some kind of problem I don't have to faff about with refunds

The horses faces on this page are so great. One of my favourite things about Tom's style is whether he's drawing something more serious or just drawing cartoon horse faces, he's brilliant.

It's possible they might just break up at some point. Not everyone spends the rest of their life with their high school sweetheart, even if they still like them.
