"what are you gonna do, hurt me?" local forest medium says to crazed forest God, immediately before getting hurt

Does putting someone into orbit count as hurting someone? Anyway, she's counting Yzengrin to save her.

I want the next page to be an echo of the one where Ysengrin ate Coyote. Only it's Loup eating Annie and then the comic is over.

It has been quite a while since I have understood why anyone in this comic has done anything.

I'm not entirely sure what leverage the 16~ year olds have against the school authority, or what underhanded methods they could take to undermine the school at this point.

Side with the Forest? Leave the school? Try and expose the shady poo poo the court is doing? Use their superpowers to save the day? There's plenty of young adult fiction where the main characters have agency and are trying to make a difference under corrupt systems. I've never felt there was enough pushback against the Court or questioning of its motives. Letting Jean pass on was a kind of action against the court but most of the time it's just...drifting through and occasionally a boat becomes self aware and so you deal with that.

the forest isn't really a place typical students would align with, Annie is an exception because of the circumstances of her birth combined with her life experiences. it's wild and dangerous and because of the lingering presence of coyote even after his death it is no less agenda-driven.

The comic did just make a point that her ability to burn things with her mind has doubled in power. It’d be nice to see her rebellious fire spirit burn baby burn side again for once.

I never said the decision would be wise and would have had to be set up a lot earlier, with Annie discovering for herself why her pal Coyote is terrible and how Loup is even worse. You could even have the trope of Annie being on one side and her dear friend Kat being on the other and the tension that causes but that's clearly not the story Tom wants to tell.

Jack off to a comatose student, hop into a giant Mecha, have a mental breakdown, and completely fail to stop the end of the world.

Annie sure likes to gamble on her personal importance in the plans of others that she knows very little about, no matter how many times this goes wrong It makes sense as a character trait - being the magical child in a hospital who can Speak With Dead and then the kid in the classroom with the most tangible superhero powers would go to anyone's head; imagine growing up being regularly told that her actions, yes hers, literally make the world continue to spin - but she's been burnt on this in-plot however many times now maybe being freshly merged is fuelling a bout of self-confidence (somewhat undeserved, since as pointed out she didn't do anything to get it) ronya fucked around with this message at 08:29 on Jun 28, 2021 |

this chapter wasted no time reminding us what a tedious little poo poo Loup is hopefully Annie just flicks the vial into his mouth so Coyote can burst out his noggin and give us some respite

V. Illych L. posted:impressive to see this thread turn into a hate thread in about a month lol I think it's more that the last chapter took a lot of the veneer off the entire series and had a lot of us readers start to question the narrative choices and style a lot more. Now that we're getting toward what we hope is some kind of resolution to plot threads and character growth moments, it's starting to feel that all these years of readership might not pay off in the way we'd hoped. We'll have to wait and see what the future brings but in the meantime I, personally, am not as forgiving as I once was.
