Oh geeze, finally reached the current comic, now I need to wait for new comics like everyone else. Basically I've been hearing I should read Gunnerkrigg for ages, but I just sort of bookmarked it years ago and never actually started, I was bored a couple days ago and gave it a shot, and now here I am. I must say it is pretty great, and I will certainly bug various people I know to read it as well. Really wish I'd started sooner, but hey.

Let's face it: Kat is pretty weird. It's not because she has a girlfriend, though.

It might even be one of most normal things about her. "I met a nice girl and now we're dating," sounds pedestrian compaired to "my best friend is a fire-elemental," or "all my other friends are robots who worship me as a cult figure."

He's not a wolf, he's a fox spirit in a wolf plush. A fox-in-wolf's-clothing.

Kat is mostly asking if it's weird that she's not seeing a bird. As far as she knows.

So Rey's basically saying that The Court is like some sort of hyper-liberal Canadian university.

Oh man are we really having a Very Special Episode of Gunnerkigg Court? I hope Rey's just messing with her. Annie was raised in a hospital in the UK somewhere around the late 90s/early 2000s, it wasn't exactly the deep south.

Annie's just shopping for glasses for Kat. That's why Kat had her face so close to Paz, right?

Renard is the best. For all this set-up, I still think it's going to turn out to be misdirection and Annie will prove to be completely fine with it. If she's upset, it'll be about Kat not telling her and having to find out in such an awkward way. Or I might be completely wrong. The comic is rarely very predictable, after all.

Despite what Renard is saying I cannot see Annie having any issue with it at all. It would be... totally out of character for her.

Rey's just stalling for time so Annie can finish up her 'Congratulations on your new sexual orientation!' banner, right?

Annie obviously realized that she left a big ole pizza in the oven, and is excited about it (the pizza). I don't get the Kat is seeing a bird joke though. OH I guess you're using "bird" to mean girl? That is sexist as gently caress tho.

His perceptions of human social mores are probably very outdated.

But I'm thinking Annie's doing something like moving out of their room because she thinks Kat will want to live with Paz now. Or some other plot development beyond "Annie is secretly a member of the Westboro Baptist Church."

I really can't see Annie having a problem here. Renard's either letting her down so that when she's cool with it it'll feel even better or that stoic personality Tony gave her is throwing him off.Darth Windu posted:OH I guess you're using "bird" to mean girl? That is sexist as gently caress tho. As sexist as calling a girl a chick? Don't think I've ever seen someone called a bird get offended.

So, one interesting thing to note is that this pretty much outs the Court as a transhumanist/posthumanist breakaway faction of humanity. That's pretty cool.
