Rei_ posted:Eh, Coyote's more a force of nature, and we're actually involved in a pretty big epic plot as it is... It just happens to be a lot of tiny threads instead of one big one. And in the big, epic plot, everything's already happened. We're just following Antimony around while she tries to figure it out.

Spaseman posted:I went for it and built my own that barely fit in below the limit. And speaking of avatars, are there any other threads where nearly all the posters have avatars from the topic of that thread? Its like Gunnerkrig has so many panels that would make for good avatars, everyone feels compelled to get one (with good reason). It's not exactly what you're asking, but some anonymous My Little Ponies fan or collection of fans spent hundreds of dollars forcing MLP avatars onto TFR posters. It's oddly colorful in there.

Conot posted:I've only just noticed, but why do all 3 mediums in training have different formal court clothes. Annie has a shirt and blazer with a long skirt, Parley has a blouse and blazer with business pants, and Smitty has a similar shirt and blazer, but wearing dark suit pants. Parley doesn't wear a uniform anymore, although I guess she wasn't willing to deviate from the Court colors for a formal event. The last time this sort of thing happened Annie and Parley were wearing the same thing

The other is when the paper came out of the envelope, I wonder if some robot is in love with her. The straight lines on the heart and the old printer paper seems like something a robot would do. Or someone who can't use a pencil but can hunt and peck at a keyboard.

Azran posted:Re-reading Divine, I realized just how much more mysticism Tom's footnotes add. Seriously, after the page with Robo-Kat Tom's "One day, Zimmy" feels really cryptic and improves the reading experience for me. I was reading through old comics in hardcopy today, and couldn't help but notice how much I missed the footnotes. I guess I feel they're an essential part of the experience.

I could go back and check the Spacemonaut chapter, but I'm pretty sure that's John in the second panel of page 179. They have kinda similar eye shapes, but Paz is consistently drawn (when at full detail) with eyelashes in the corners of her eyes. You can see that pretty well even in her first appearance, where John has helpfully seated himself nearby. Actually, that's something Tom's been pretty good about from the beginning. Different characters have unique eye shapes (with the obvious exception of Annie and Surma). Now that I think of it, eyes come up a lot: Coyote has a whole tooth and eye look going on, Reynardine steals bodies with eyes (and the symbols to bind him are of eyes), Zimmy's eyes are a barometer of... whatever the hell it is that Zimmy does, and Coyote calls Jones "Wandering Eye". Maybe it's just coincidences piling up over 40-some chapters, but I'd like to think it's an intentional motif.

seravid posted:For Renard the mind is a plaything of the body, right? We've seen how different bodies emphasize different facets of his personality: Toy Renard is a perv and Wolf Renard is thoughtful and noble. I propose that Original Renard is a fool willing to blindingly go way too far for love and Rogat Orjak Renard is just a murdering rear end in a top hat (have you seen how many horns he has? Super-evil). Regardless of what Renard's said, I'm more willing to believe that he shapes his body as fits his mood rather than the other way around.

Curiosity?

Did everyone forget that Renard is a trickster spirit? Or was, I'm not sure--he might not be sure either. His level of involvement in Hettie's schemes is gonna speak volumes. Even if that's all we get out of Hettie as a character she'll earn her place in the cast and more besides.
