Nothing to do with politics. Jimmy Jims has his hands full and was very clear that he couldn't even spare Parley as Annie's protection. Additionally, he and Annie only barely escaped from Ysengrin last time and now she's face to face with a god. Even if he did come there's not much he could do to help. Annie's on her own here.

I'm going with "most of these panels are too abstract/representational to bother with counting teeth, but that one big 'my name is Loup' panel was specifically intended to be detailed and literal enough to draw that tooth gap as an unimportant hint and reminder" All my chips down on that square.

My point is that it seems like an interesting way to talk about Ysengrin when Loup claims Ys is dead (unless this is also common with fusions; I have no idea and have yet to watch Steven Universe).

It is interesting. Loup spent a number of pages talking about Coyote's desires in the past tense but when it came to an important thing to Ys he goes present tense.

Except counting the teeth lines up on that and the tooth Coyote pulled for the sword was a top tooth, not a bottom one, different sides of the mouth too.

Ys himslef may be dead, but some of Ysengrin's feelings can be referred to in the present tense: Loup has Ysengrin's love for Annie, and recognizes that. His love for Coyote was referred to in past tense because there's no longer a Coyote to love.

Ah, fair point. I may be wrong.

Ooo yes, good point and another interesting way to look at it.


Tooth convo: Coyote had already replaced that tooth here https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=686

Unless Coyote has been consistently drawn missing that tooth when he goes bony, I think the teeth here are a style choice.

I wonder if feelings stay in the Ether.

Also Annie is not defenseless in this conversation - she can put up a fight with her fire elemental side, we've seen her do this to the Elf Dude during the freeing of Jeanne. She'd still probably lose to Loup, mind you, but if she doesn't intend to take him down, she could at least buy herself some time to escape.

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.
Annie is an untrained fragment of a fire elemental, Loup is one god and one vicious murderer meshed together, this is absolutely one sided

Also, this is a talky comic, not a fighty comic, they're just going to have a chat, as always.

So, Annie is getting roped into staying with Loup with threats against her loved ones, and she's also owed her life to the Psychopomps.

I encountered this page about an hour after talking (while drunk) to an acquaintance (who was drunk) about certain... terrible attitudes he had towards women.

I probably won't be on good terms with said acquaintance in the near future, unless he figures some poo poo out pretty severely after sobering up, and then metaphorically sobering up.

Anyway, I found this page especially amusing and poignant because of circumstances.

Loup's mane in the last panel looks like waves, dousing Annie's fire/motivation

Guess she's staying.

I predicted this would happen, but now I kind of hope it doesn't, because Loup has stopped being fun creepy and has now become uncomfortable creepy.
