Annie interpreted him as aggressive, but from Kat's perspective he was handcuffed and kneeling. I bet he was all like "Hey Annie you dropped this! Annie! Annie! ANNIE! WHY ARE YOU RUNNING? ANNIE COME BACK YOU DROPPED THIS!"

That hairclip better have been like a dying mother gift because she lost it ten years ago and no one even noticed when she lost it to begin with.

That or it better not matter at all and elf guy is just nice, and Kat asks Annie about it and Annie says she picked it out of the garbage at the hospital and it wasn't even important.

Does she just not give a gently caress that one of her friends was just stabbed because of her plan? She's just looking good at the Zombelf like "thanks, I guess this day went perfectly after all" while everyone else, including the murder ghost, is concerned about Smitty.

She dropped her sword though, so we're going to be seeing some ghost-zombie boxing if that's the case.

Smitty's fine, it missed his heart and major arteries, possibly a punctured lung but a quick bip to the hospital and a few months of swole girlfriend assisted convalescence will sort that out. Also it'll turn out Parley digs scars.

The real question is why hasn't Parley teleported him off to someplace for medical attention. Time is a factor here George!

All is for the best, in this, the best of all possible worlds
Smitty dies. Parley pulls out the Coyote tooth and cuts Jeanne in half in grief-stricken revenge. Elf-boy snaps Kat's neck. Annie burns him to ashes. While everybody mopes around, Fortinbras enters and becomes king of Denmark.

I mean it is Smitty. It's like, literally in character for him. Granted, he might not be able to work that kinda poo poo because of all the thread cutting though.

I feel like Smits's "stepped on a lego" wincing-in-pain face would be thematically inappropriate if we're on a countdown to him dying. If this was going to be the first major, on-panel character death I'd moreso expect his face to be artfully hidden until you get the postmortem "peaceful like an angel" view or something like that.

Because Smitty is holding them back? I am holding out that Smitty is about to receive some form of help. IF Smitty doesn't literally have a death wish, he's right where he needs to be right now.

Parley isn't going to teleport away and leave her other friends with the murderghost until she's sure she's no longer a threat.

Smitty has surprisingly little blood for a chest wound.

Perhaps she stabbed him with her retractable theatre dagger?

As long as the dagger stays stuck in, there's nowhere for the blood to go yet. Once somebody pulls it out is when things get messy.

Though then again, it's also a ghost dagger. So things may get weird.

Smitty doesn't have "luck" powers, he has order powers. He makes order from chaos. And even if the dagger is still stuck, I'd still expect to see some blood leaking out around the dagger by now. Getting stabbed there generally means a lot of bleeding.

Going back, that barrette does look like the same one her mother used to wear. Same color, anyway.

Rather than killing his heart, it's going to kill his heart i.e. he's going to become emotionless (a la Kay in The Snow Queen)
