I doubt they'll know about Kat's increasing etheric status either way. But yeah, Juliette was helping keep this all under wraps and away from the Shadow Men's notice and it made sense that they were exploiting the chaos and the abandonment of the area to hide it. Whoops. Unless they invited Shell here on purpose to draw her into their conspiracy?

Niavmai posted:there are two wolves inside of you I am cautiously optimistic and hope this leads somewhere - I've definitely wanted to see the Court's reaction to Kat casually turning their workforce into autonomous human beings and ascending to godhood, and it would be cool if there was something about Shell agreeing to keep the secret after seeing it firsthand - but holy poo poo if it's 5 pages of her blushing nervously about going on a date with Aata I will exhale angrily through my nose then keep reading this comic anyway because I apparently have brain problems relating to sunk cost fallacies And credit where credit's due, I love that last panel with her extremely angry look contrasted with "THANK YOU. I LOVE THIS DRESS.". Reminds me of some of the comic's better humor moments.

There Bias Two posted:...The gunnerkrigg court thread? Oh, absolutely! She's an artist Tom has talked about enjoying in the past, and while I don't want to put words in his mouth, I believe that her song Sir Eglamore was a direct inspiration for the character. Evidently the Annan Waters are named after one of her songs too.

A.o.D. posted:Her last name must be Oyl, because that figure can best be described as Segaresque. I actually have been wondering if she's intended to code as transgender, and if that figures into this storyline as the New People have just gone through a transition which involves picking their new shape, and gender, and other things.

Last time we raised that question the answer seemed to be "no, she just got Jimmy Jim'd over time," but wow, dang, that actually would make this whole storyline a lot sharper.

My issue with this type of take is that, for it to work, somebody would have to be outed. That's an easy story beat to get horrifically wrong, even with the best of intentions.

I don't know. If Shell is transitioning and there's no storyline to accompany it, that actually sits well with me. If you can't write a good story around it, just have it happen organically and pass it off as the most normal thing in the world with no one even batting an eye. It's also a viable strategy. If you ask me. What the hell kind of pose was Morris doing there when Shell addresses her?
