Randalor posted:Jerrek was Loup who was an amalgamation of Ysengrin and Coyote, and who seemed to become his own entity after the initial "Ysengrin gained Coyote's powers and his id took over living out his darkest desires before calming the gently caress down". I think this is less Coyote leaving Loup and more that Loup hit a hidden Coyote ‘recorded message’ that triggered on the L word, so he’s not changed any while still able to talk with past Coyote

Coyote is disappointed in you, the reader, for not supporting his ship.

Based on earlier information, we know this is the last time And honestly, if he made this face and then just popped out of existence forever, it woulda been pretty rad. Skippy McPants fucked around with this message at 15:38 on Jul 5, 2023 |

Part of why it stings so much when the characters don't really care about everything that gets resolved off panel is because this comic is so excellent at reaction faces

Captain Oblivious posted:The idea is solid, except for the part where we were meant to understand the relationship between Ysengrin and Annie as the seeds of romance. coyote's idea of the seeds of romance. we'll pretend it's all intentional, that makes it okay, right?

Skippy McPants posted:There is probably a way to do this well since historically mythic characters and beings tend to have a pretty... hmm, slanted view of morality? But that kind of setup required a lot more nuance and consideration than we got. Skippy's pretty much nailed my feelings on this one. Like, if the comic acknowledged how gross any of this is, it'd be a lot better. And maybe it will later, I don't know. As it is now, it's just... hard to get over it. As funny as Coyote's expressions are. Still wondering "to what end" with Coyote's plan, but I am curious what'll come of Coyote and Lana chatting.

Yeah this would land a lot better for me if Jerrick wasn't seriously crushing on Annie before and only stopped when Lana pretty much forced him to pay attention to her. I guess the silver lining is Annie had no interest in Jerrick and never properly acknowledged his crush (...except now we're wondering if Ysengrin was Annie's crush), but we were absolutely supposed to guess at "Will they/won't they??" with respect to them starting to date, and I still find that weird, even if they didn't get together. Basically this: Skippy McPants posted:There is probably a way to do this well since historically mythic characters and beings tend to have a pretty... hmm, slanted view of morality?

The bottom three panels befits a lot of reader reactions to the pace of new characters in the last book.

And more relevant to the update and not just me being disappointed lol: I could see Coyote finding this situation hilarious. His brilliant plan gone awry because of the unpredictability of humans. In his past stories, he seems to love when things don't go according to his plan.

Coyote, you're being a creepy little freak. Quit being a creepy little freak. Also, loving how Jerrek's agency is the only thing driving this plot and Annie is little more than wallpaper.

Yeah this is quite funny, but it would have been great if we arrived here on behalf of any agency from Annie. Replace the creepy alleyway scene with one where Annie tries to set up Lana and Jerrek, can fill it with them messing up dumb romance cliches or something to portray how out of touch she is with real life. Or something else idk. I would say that Annie is little more than the doll Jerrek didn't pick, but that's giving Lana too little credit, who had plenty of agency in this development.

Yeah, wherever this scene goes and however long it lasts, it must end with Coyote vanishing from existence after mugging or delivering a pithy line. It is too obvious and too good a bit to pass up.

I like how he says "Jerrek's..." like he's kind of struggling to remember who that is for a second. Then when he realizes it's Loup's humansona he's like

Look at Jerrek being so sheepish and meek. Classic Loup. That's the Loup we know. Those are certainly traits he's always had. Totally.

Pants Donkey posted:While not outright stated, it’s strongly implied that Loup’s personality has been subsumed or at least suppressed by the Jerrek personality. Similar to how Coyote thought he was an actual dead goose for a period of time. Loup even admits being Jerrek mellowed him out. Plus, y'know, it's a bit like your dad finding out he completely misinterpreted a situation and is about to lose his poo poo. There comes a point where you're just embarrassed, no matter how powerful you are.
