Next time they go to the forest there is another, sleeping, Annie right next to Renards old fox body.

I hope Eglamore doesn't know how to find the North Star. For all his combat training he never learned.

What if Loup kept the local Annie. :(

I don't really think astral navigation works in a subspace conjured by a demon. I wouldn't even assume that the concept of "north" is meaningful there.

Yeah kinda. She's never liked him, though she seems especially hostile right now.

Remember Eglamore hated Annie at first, because of the whole history with her parents. But they did seem to reconcile once she started her Medium practice and he was responsible for her protection.

Given all the changes in both of their lives this might have collapsed a bit. And this is Court Annie, who may have had a bad experience with him that we haven't seen yet.

It's also possible that she's sixteen and too old to have your parents' friend picking you up and carrying you.

Annie and Eglamore have an alright relationship as teacher an student. But when it comes to him being her protector it's a bit more rocky: https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1086

Court Annie probably doesn't appreciate being told she shouldn't come along. It's not even her quest! But she does have fire lasers...

But also yeah Ys carrying her is different from Jimmy Jims doing it.

from what I can tell over the course of the story on a base level she tolerates him but sees him as kind of creepy and even potentially dangerous for his residual hangups

This Annie learned the death beam in the 6 months that passed, maybe she can also fly like Frieza her mother.

Her logic checks out, though. I wouldn't let a high school gym teacher carry me, but if a dog in a tree wanted to give me a ride I'd be all for it.

Yeah, I always interpreted the tension between them to be primarily the result of Eglamore being somewhat overprotective (both because she's Surma's kid, and because she was basically abandoned by Tony), and that immediately clashing with Annie's independent, rebellious side. And on top of that she knows about his relationship with Surma, which essentially pits him against Tony. So he's an overprotective teacher who used to be with her mom and hates her dad, it makes sense that she's not his biggest fan.

I reread ahead a bit and next chapter is the Jones chapter, which is such a good loving chapter.

Complete side note, had Tom ever done a self insert of himself or others into Gunnerkrigg?
