That's Jones, and she doesn't care about cancer.

That is beautiful. Shadow, Coyote doing the Johnny Five-Aces pose, all of it.

This is great except Ysengrin would never express anger towards Coyote .

Got my AitF Part 2 in, and it's awesome. It's chocked full of character development and made me laugh in several places. Annie discovering water to be the most delicious thing in existence while suffering from her very first hangover really made me smile. It was such a simple but relatable thing. If you haven't bought it yet, you should. It's about as long as the first one, but a lot still happens in that short span.

Line Feed posted:Kat and Annie high five a bunch of times then Coyote shows up and ruins everything somehow. I've actually been really happy that so far Coyote has been written restrained enough that he doesn't just show up, pull some bugs bunny style chaos and then disappear. That's a horribly lazy way to do a trickster.

JT Jag posted:The fact that he's effectively the sovereign of the woods means that he perhaps is not capable of acting as independently as he once did. If his Ether being theory is correct then everyone in the Court believing "Coyote can't harm the Court" is probably enough to keep him away. It's a paradoxical relationship. Coyote has a whole bunch of people believing in him. This makes him a god but that belief includes a clause that keeps him from ruling over them. So he becomes a being of immense power that has to use long games and intermediaries to gently caress with people.

Honestly, I think the general points behind Coyote's ether effecting reality theory is pretty airtight. I'm not sure about the "ether effects the past" part though.

It doesn't need to really affect the past, though, it just has to make them believe it does. Perception is reality in a lot of ways.

I dunno. Going from the distance Annie seemed to be at, it seems unlikely that she would have mistook them for hugging or something. On the other hand, they haven't explicitly brought up that Kat and Paz are a thing yet. "Seeing" is vague enough to refer to a friend.

Dat *clonk*.  I love the idea that homophobia isn't even something that Annie conceives of. Be interesting to see how she processes it once Kat's explained it.

So he becomes a being of immense power that has to use long games and intermediaries to gently caress with people. I'm not sure I buy this interpretation for several reasons: A) I doubt 100% of the Court genuinely believes that. Quite a few are likely quite intimidated by Coyote. The more arrogant higher ups, sure, but "everyone"? Ehhh. B) I don't think the Court comprises a sufficiently large subset of the collective unconscious to affect Coyote in such a way even if they all 100% uniformly believed that.

Man, some of you guys really can never figure out what's going on without it literally being 100% spelled out, huh? She obviously knows that they were kissing, I mean come on.

Hodgepodge posted:"At some point in my family tree, someone decided to hook up with a fire." I was kind of expecting this to be how Annie's homophobia manifested, with her comparing Kat being gay to all of the weird poo poo they've seen, and telling her it's okay. Everyone around them is a complete freak, so being gay doesn't make Kat anymore of a freak than the fish spirit guy! Completely offensive in a well meaning way!

It's a minor thing, but also when she pulled out the letter in the dining hall (which was pretty rude, Annie) she asked Kat about who could it be, saying "are they here right now?". She didn't say "he" on purpose to keep the possibility open. That and her earlier comments about Zimmy and Gamma showed Annie doesn't really have strong feelings about same-sex couples. But I'm sure she is against ROBOSEXUALITY.

I think you are giving Annie way too much credit. Annie is really very socially inept and selfish. I doubt she would have had the presence of mind to use gender neutral pronouns there. I'm sure it was either just a coincidence or a case of Tom's knowledge about who was the actual writer that impacting his choice of words there.

I'm sure it was either just a coincidence or a case of Tom's knowledge about who was the actual writer that impacting his choice of words there. Yeah, I didn't mean it as Annie being super "progressive", but actually pretty unaware due to her special upbringing. As in, she just doesn't see such things as weird because she never interacted much with anyone (mostly ethereal creatures and his distant dad), and then she came to the court where they aren't an issue. So she ends up being quite open-minded, in a way thanks to her very social awkwardness. As for her use of pronouns, well, Annie always had a pretty broad vocabulary for her age so I wouldn't rule out that being intentional.
