Geez, Kat, broadcast that a little louder, why don't you. Challenger station is documenting that blush right now.

Jones gets another call from Anthony, where he sends a ciphered message to Annie meant to be deciphered by Donnie that says. "Donland, your daughter is going out with Paz Cadena Blanco. She seems flustered by it."

Which is how Annie finds out about it. Calling it now.

Nope. The first half or so was Annie telling everyone else about that stampede of petitioners, though.

The previous chapter began with Annie telling Kat what happened in the forest, after which Kat left to deal with the love letter and Annie met up with Parley and Smitty. We don't know what's happened between then and now but it seems like Annie is only just meeting up again with Kat.

I don't think it's a just now meeting up with kind of situation. Antimony's hair has changed again. I guess Kat is still trying to figure out how to tell Antimony.

Aside from the whole :3: thing, it looks like Annie's started to trust Renard a lot. He blatantly ducks the question about what he's doing, and she could compel him to tell her what it is. This chapter will probably be about whether that trust is misplaced.

Now back to your regularly scheduled :3:

Renard also turned back into a doll the very moment Annie came through the door. Don't want to show off his glorious wolf coat? Or trying to manipulate Annie by playing the innocent toy?

I think it is moreso when he sleeps and dreams, Renard sees himself as his ideal self. In this case it happens to be fox form and as such he takes on that appearance.

I dunno, either that or maybe he just feels like he sleeps better in the doggie bed as a fox. :3:

He seemed a bit aloof as well, but maybe that's just how it seems when a stuffed toy has a casual chat with someone.

Does Renard usually even go out at all? Even with all those books it must get boring during the day. It beats being chained up in a warehouse, at least.

I think it's a great touch that Rey looks paunchy when he sits up. Really gives that "Uuugh, feeling so faaaaat and laaaazy." vibe. After all, Rey himself said that the body is the plaything of the mind.

I wonder how far he's allowed to wander? Who would he visit, anyway? I suppose he could stop by Lindsay's or Jones' place for a chat, maybe the library or one of the many parks.

Edit: It turns out he hangs out with Eglamore at the weekly meetings for the Tony Carver Is A Bit Of A Tosser Club.

Actually it's a common paraphrase of a Nietzche quote.

"The awakened, the enlightened man says: I am body entirely, and nothing beside; and soul is only a word for something in the body. Your body is a great intelligence... Your little intelligence, brother, which you call "spirit", is also an instrument of your body, a little instrument and toy of your great intelligence."

Also here's a less appealing use of that quote by a brain eating body snatching cyborg.

The TCBT club, week 112

Minutes:

11:00 Call to order.

11:02 Reading of last week's minutes by general secretary R. Nadine.

11:05 First point of order:

Why did Surma go for that jerk nerd dude rather than her nice jock boyfriend (pt continued from Wk. 111, 110, 109 et al), raised by chairman the Rt. Hon Sir J.J. Eglamore.

11:08 Counterpoint raised by general secretary; certain mystical animal spirits may have been compatible with Surma, and in fact the late Ms Surma may have made statements indicating her preferences in that regard.

11:10 Chairman indicates contempt for general secretary.

11:11 General secretary compares chairman's personality with particularly uninteresting garden furniture.

11:12 No holds barred grudge match between 6'8" knight trained in mystical warfare and animated stuffed animal toy.

11:35 Tea break.

11:40 Grudge match resumes.

12:00 Meeting adjourns.

I'm a little bit worried actually, that Renard isn't going to have the happiest of adventures. Unless Red somehow shows up, which will make it the best of adventures.

But look at that couple being all :3: and stuff.

Yeah, his poses and expressions here scream "this adventure is going to be a somber one" to me. I get the feeling this chapter's going to give us some insight into the less upbeat parts of Renard's backstory/psyche.

Thinking back on the Alchemical symbols, in this chapter title, you can pretty clearly see the court protector there from the Bismuth/lead symbols, and right next to him is someone with the quicksilver symbol on their head, and i don't think it's representing Reynard.
