The way he truly is.
Is it just me or do they look kind of oddly short in the second panel? They're, what, 14-16 now? Their proportions make them look more like they're 10.

This part was also kinda unfortunate:

It's sort of implied. Every time Annie is shown with homework at all she's copying it from Kat.

13-14; this is still their third year. The proportions look fine for that, probably in part because they clearly dress more like teenagers than children.

The icon for this chapter looks kind of foresty. I'm wondering if Kat is about exit stage right with Paz and leave the rest of the chapter for Annie to do forest things on her own.

Ah, so it's a crash course to get Antimony into videogames. Her first experience wasn't approppiate.

Can someone remind me which chapter was it when Anja remembers how they got tattooed and everyone has a funny reaction (Kat's being the best)?

vvv that was quick, thanks dude. Now to read the whole thing because of course :qq: vvv

Frankly, I'm just slightly sad whenever Kat and Paz are around. It an adorable relationship, but they're eventually going to break up. The writing has been spot on regarding teenagers so far, so I can't imagine that Tom is going to ignore teenagers being terrible at their first relationships. I don't want them to be sad. :(

Also http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=798 and the next page. And the page after that where Renard says "You always say that!"

It's also another scene that shows that Renard cares about Annie. And also another scene that demonstrates his forest nature, since he acts like a total child. Annie is a child, so it makes sense that she'd say something stupid and terrible like what she did. But Renard? He's at once trying to be like a father to Annie, but then he says that horrible mean spirited thing to her just for the sake of getting back at her for what she said to him.

Renard's a pretty complicated character, even though some of his actions are straightforward. I really enjoyed this last chapter because it she a lot of light on his motivations and his feelings.

I'm confused, does Annie know? It feels like she's knowingly teasing Kat, but then Tom's comment (and her history of being a total doofus).

It is ENTIRELY possible the Annie just thinks Kat is embarrassed about being seen as having a crush on a teacher, and is in fact congratulating herself on picking up that subtext as she walks away.

She's obviously deliberately ribbing Kat in front of Paz, but it could be she thinks she's just ribbing Kat in front of her new friend rather than ribbing her in front of her new girlfriend. It's come up before that Kat hasn't always been the most popular girl so her suddenly spending a lot of time with Paz would be noteworthy even if it was purely platonic.

Does whatever
a multiple can.
One thing I hadn't considered until tonight, is what Robot will think of Kat having a significant other. What will he think about this other human occupying his Angel's time?

Also, I wanted to note that I totally don't think Annie knows yet. Ms. Carver can be quite slow on the up-take with these kind of things.

Robot's already a thing with Shadow, so I shouldn't imagine he'd be too upset about Kat dating. He sees himself as a Prophet more than a prospective suitor.

It kinda seems that way to me, too. Maybe she doesn't know know, but maybe she at least suspects somethings up between 'em.

Kat and Paz are very sweet but I think that Annie is pretty delightful in this page. All joke-y and happy and cute! Her character development into a more sociable person has been fantastic.

Also she has no clue about Kat/Paz if Tom's comment is what we should be going by.

Did I... did I miss anything important?
I'd think they'd include that conversation in the comic. Since Kat hadn't told Annie last we checked, she's probably a bit anxious about it.

This reasoning is possible for forums user idonotlikepeas!
I'm fairly certain Annie doesn't know yet. She might tease them, but she'd be unlikely to just randomly go on about her crush like that.

Plus, Tom probably wouldn't have that happen offscreen.

It seems that Annie thinks Kat and Paz are just good friends and is just teasing Kat in front of her friend. Tom's comment seems to reflect that.
