I thought I remembered Annie seeing Red and friend of Red in the ether back when she was down that ravine. Must have misremembered though.

She only just got her Blinker stone shortly after meeting them. She didn't learn about going into the ether until later. If she had, she'd have seen that they were Hollow without any etheric presence.

MikeJF posted:So is it decided which fairies will go to the court before they're born? Certainly it seems that, unlike animals, fairies don't just decide to go to the court. It's predetermined for some unknown reason (apparently at the Court's request!) and by some unknown method. Snuffle for instance wouldn't have the option to go join her friend, even if she wanted to as she's a True Fairy, not a hollow one. It does raise the question of what would happen if a hollow fairy didn't want to become human, but Coyote at least seems to think this is highly unlikely as an existence without a spirit isn't a pleasant one. Something interesting about all this is that we know that prior to Annie's arrival at the school communication between the court and the forest had completely broken down. Relations have only just been restored (to some extent) by the work of the two Mediums. And yet despite this the transfers continued unabated. Even with the two sides being practically hostile to each other fairies were still becoming human and humans were still becoming animals. Somehow this whole process is so fundamental to both the Court and forest that nothing seems to put a stop to it. Regy Rusty fucked around with this message at 23:43 on May 17, 2016 |

You gotta get those drat dissident and forest sympathizers/human lovers out, so they can't pollute good noble minds with their ideas.

At this point of Regy Rusty said I had forgotten an entire chapter where Elgamore and Tony fell out over the flamenco dancing competition 50 chapters ago I'd take it as gospel.

Except she immediately said "Hey let's do this other more interesting thing instead!" Maybe, maybe it's some super important thing that she is intending to distract Annie from, but I really doubt it.

So, what's the difference between a True Fairy and a Fairy and where is this outlined in the comic?

It's outlined in the page I linked earlier: http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1471 Or well that's where hollow fairies are explained. Only just now are we starting to learn more about true fairies, having seen one in the ether for the first time just this past week. The reason this is all fresh in my mind is I just went back and reread all the chapters involving Snuffle and her friend last week. They all take on new context with what we've learned more recently.

I wonder if a hollow fairy can go 'no thanks' and get their soul put back in.

I'm not sure if the threads mean anything. I mean, Annie was distracted so for all we know Coyote could have just just tied a bunch of magic strings around him as a joke. Boy will that be fun when he tries to leave the forest and his soul is still tied up there.

Welp. The court is either using the fairies as super computers or they are the equivalent of monkeys on a typewriter.

Remember Snuffle seeing the Rubik's Cube and instantly visualising a solution and how many moves it would take? Fairies are crazy smart in some ways, and it seems like animal converts might be similar.

"Not good with numbers, but good with patterns" So if you then teach them to be good with numbers, who knows what could be possible?
