I wonder if Zimmy can tell that both Annies are from a different timeline, too.

Who even knows what Zim sees.

If that hip-height wall is a reasonable reference, I think the situation is that Gamma is big, and Zamzo is still a bit taller than the others. Zammer. The zimzag. Z Top.

poo poo this would be great.

I've actually theorized that "our" Annie never belonged here in the first place, or at least for some great length of time. We never have had proof that she belonged in this timelime, we just assumed she did.

If Zimmy shows up she's probably got some insights to share. :)

Also, the other two aren't really ganging up on Annie at all. They're just kind of standing there looking vaguely confused and worried while Paz yells. Like, not once has either of them looked even slightly mad during this whole confrontation. I suspect that neither of them know what's going on.

She's only there because Paz said she was going to take her out for ice cream, she didn't sign up for whatever bullshit romantic drama is playing out in front of her.

Edit:

It's actually pretty interesting to click through and look at the faces of the two back up girls, start from here: https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=2250

The long haired brunette looks mostly apathetic, occasionally shooting Paz a few "This is stupid, I don't know what you're trying to accomplish by doing this" side glances. Meanwhile, the blonde looks increasingly shocked and upset by Paz's behavior. Whoever these two are they don't support what Paz is doing right now, they're just there because their friend is having a mental break down and they have no idea how to handle it.

I really think it's less that Gamma has grown unusually tall than Zimmy just hasn't grown at all (which is suitably creepy for her). Gamma's always been taller than Zimmy, and she was noticeably hunching the last time we saw them (around here: https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1445); her posture has improved a lot since then. That page in particular also gives an interesting comparison as Gamma now looks to be about as tall as Jack was then; maybe a little taller. She's also looking better rested than usual.

It's hard to find Zimmy next to characters that aren't Gamma, but from the looks of it she's been shorter than everyone for quite some time: https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=454

I wouldn't be surprised if the aetheric experiments of the Court somehow stunted Zimmy's growth. They certainly had a painful effect on her.

I was thinking about the fact that they are called Zimmy and Gamma being something related to being Subject Zeta and Subject Gamma, being referred to as Court's experiments but looking back I think those are their given names? At least Gamma has a surname and it'd be weird to keep that after receiving a code name from the scientists or whatever.
