I love how both of them are just about to die from embarrassment, even the one teasing, because it's how she feels too. It's obvious when you think about it, but it's a nice touch.

That's what I was thinking! She's normally so reserved it's hard to believe she could feel that way.

I wonder if that'll lead to something or if it's just a tease and a confirmation that Annie does have romance somewhere on her list of priorities, however low.

Also congratulations to Tom.

Congratulations to Tom and Magnolia! Also, today's comic is really cute!

I have no idea who Annie has a crush on, all the good characters are either already dating someone or way too old for her.

Crushes don't care about such things.

Whoever this crush is, Annie hasn't been acting on it. It can be that she's too shy, but it can also be that she's aware it wouldn't be a good idea precisely for a reason like this. All we know is that it's probably neither Jack nor Winsbury.

And it's also probably not Kat, because then Chibisoma would win, and no one wants that.

Also not Smitty because he was addressed separately.

Could be some kid from her year 9 class we've never seen before. We don't see much of their day to day lives now.

Yeah, she seemed pretty above it all. What happens if/when one of the Annies starts dating their crush? The other is going to be hell on wheels.

A few thoughts:

- Annie dies if she ever has a kid. But what if she doesn't? Regular human lifespan, or would she basically be immortal?
- Jones "attaches" herself to people, moving on when they die. I've been pretty certain that Eglamore is going to die at some point (if for no other reason than for Tom to be able to have a comment of "That lady is Eglamore" the first time Jones shows up after he dies; but Parley being on a course to replace him would seem to suggest that too). So who would Jones attach herself to next? She's already shown a great deal of interest in Annie, and told Annie a lot about herself (well, her entire history, basically).

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

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

One of the Annies is going to turn out to be a hot head. The other one is a little cold and calculating. They go on separate adventures and marry two different people, then give up their lives to save the world. Gia then rewards them by bringing them back to life as a single person.

Fire doesn't burn forever. I see no reason to expect an abnormally long lifespan. She did grow up at the same rate as any normal human.

Presumably if she never has a child, then her lineage dies out with her.

So who would Jones attach herself to next? She's already shown a great deal of interest in Annie, and told Annie a lot about herself (well, her entire history, basically).

-I think a regular lifespan is a lot more likely, which would make Surma's decision to reproduce somewhat more understandable. It's a choice between dying younger versus extinguishing the immortal part of herself.
-If there's one think about Jones we know for sure it's that she can handle a few years spent alone, no reason she'd have to find an immediate successor.

One thing about Jones I'm unsure about is to what extent her relationship with Eglamore is romantic in nature, vs a much-closer-than-is-healthy bond between a guy and his mother figure. It certainly looks romantic, which is all kind of hosed up, but there's no indication Jones had ever had that kind of relationship with a person. Besides, why would someone who professes to have no emotion start dating? And why would anyone wants a relationship with someone who acts like that?

(I'm aware that Jones is probably not entirely honest when she says she's an unfeeling robot with no inner life, but she certainly acts the part.)

The answer there is Buff Parley, let's be honest. That's why that question followed the Smitty one.
