God drat it, gently caress you all for making me lose an evening. You know what my favorite page is? This one, because it doesn't suck me into constantly hitting to the next page to relive the awesome moments. I suspect this is the best explanation we'll get of what went down back when Reynard got captured by the court. At this point, I don't think there are any details that particularly matter any more.

Is it just me or is the voice actress for Antimony... not very good at all? The accent feels really forced to me. Couldn't really get far into it. Shame, the animation was fine.

Isn't there a brief video somewhere of Annie speaking, with a pitch-shifted Kate Rusby snippet as the audio? That one seemed to work really well.

"Anne-timony"... really? I've been pronouncing it "Anne-ti-mony" Like alimony. I realise now that this doesn't come across well in text but that reading just bugs me somehow. The accent also kinda sounds like someone from the continent doing an English accent, I dunno, it's odd. I can't hear even a trace of Bahnsley in there  Checking the second one, I have no idea what the hell is up with Anja's accent. Also Kat is not Scottish in this: WORTHLESS!

Man these pages have become retroactively heartbreaking I didn't really put together until just now how that childlike naivety is really the main consistent feature of all the court robots. It's a weird contrast to their creator, who should have known better.

Don't doll feet tend to be pretty stubby so you can take various pairs of shoes on and off without the feet getting in the way? I mean I didn't play with dolls growing up, but what I saw from my sisters collection probably wouldn't have looked super dissimilar from Hetty's. Also Coyote is sworn not to interfere with the Court side of the river and only seems capable of coming over when the court allows it for negotiations. Somehow coming over to corrupt Reynard and also annoy the living poo poo out of some random dude seems like it would fall under the definition of interfering with stuff on the court side of the river.

Apart from being brown and having lines on them I see no similarity in the form of Hettys feet and Coyotes. The only similarity between the two is that they are both dicks. Such dicks.

cafel posted:Also Coyote is sworn not to interfere with the Court side of the river The exact words from Anja are "leave everyone on our side alone" -- and "our side" is ambiguous. Is it physical side, or political side? If he promised to leave Court-affiliated people alone, there's still a huge loophole in that Renard isn't Court-affiliated. He's a Forest-affiliated prisoner.

Even if Annie and Renard don't count as Court people, I'm pretty sure the agreement would be broken if coyote started putting glass fibre in Court beds.

A capital idea, Hetty! If friday's comic doesn't have Renard taking wolf form and suggesting Hetty to never ever say that again, I'm gonna be a bit disappointed in him.

Splicer posted:Coyote's eyes are a pupil, surrounded by white, surrounded by a blue ring, surrounded by a red ring. Hers are a pupil, surrounded by red, surrounded by white, no blue at all. Her pupil also appears to have 7~8 thin points like a star...which might just be iris detail, but it looks off to me. The Coyote connection does seem to be gaining steam, but now I'm just thinking she's someone that knows Coyote and is being used by him...or perhaps she's using him! (Yeah right.)

I don't think she is Coyote directly, but she might still be one of his agents. The doll is possessed, so that body tells us nothing about who she was originally. A forest dweller? A glass-eyed person? Probably something else entirely, but at this point there's no way to know.

I seriously doubt that anyone directly taking barking ( ) orders from Coyote is going to try and goad Renard into killing his own new ambassador.I'm gonna assume the null hypothesis here and go with Hetty independently being a bad person

Ya, I don't see Hetty being Coyote and just flat out suggesting Renard kill Annie. I know Coyote convinced Renard to kill someone before, but the guy Renard possessed probably never even met Coyote. Basically, I don't think Coyote would just toss aside a toy he's been enjoying so quickly. I assume Hetty is just a viscous spirit possessing that doll.

I reckon she's one of those crazy Toy Fundamentalists. She's totally in favour of killing the oppressive humans, but lacking the means/courage to do so herself, she's making do with being a really bad person and encouraging other's to do the killing.

Yeah she seems pretty sincere and is probably a sociopath. It's not that she likes violence, but sometimes it does eliminate problems so... I also don't think Coyote would take on a disguise and then have little clues on him about his true identity unless he wanted to be recognized.
