The static represents a bad cell connection. A difficult metaphor to grasp I'm sure.

Nope. He's definitely a robot.

Oh hey.

I assumed it was a joke, because "you" is the only word in bold.

Whoever turned that fish guy into a human didn't do a very thorough job of it.

Maybe he had green fever, like Jeanne.

edit: Forest fever?

That giant crack in the wall is gone. I guess it was just a symbolic crack after all.

I'm no expert on accents, and that the characters as supposed to be 'English', but for some reason the voice feels wrong to me. Perhaps it's because it represents a younger Annie, but it feels like there's more emotion behind her voice than there should be. That and, to me, it almost sounds Irish.

I thought the same thing, except for the Irish bit. I imagined her being very emotionless and disengaged. Also, having grown up in a big hospital full of specialist doctors, international patients, and psychopomps, I wouldn't expect her to have a strong regional accent.

Is Donald having her write it down instead of saying it out loud just to gently caress with the audience? I love it.

His method seems a lot less crude. I'm not sure the table and laptop would agree, though.

Yeah, it's pretty safe to say he's a dick at this point. But if he immediately calls Annie to apologize and explain things as soon as he's linked up to Microsat 5, then maybe he's just mostly a dick and not a complete dick.

So Donald can just fzzap all his rocket supplies into existence whenever he needs them? He's the coolest nerd ever.

The dude is a surgeon, so I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say he probably needs the scalpels to do surgery.

There are plenty of coyotes in my area and I've heard several people use the second pronunciation? I didn't know it was considered weird.

Yeah, I think it's pretty normal for rural people in Texas and the Southwest to pronounce it that way. It's just an Anglicized pronunciation of coyote, which was Hispanicized from the original Nahuatl word, so none of us are really saying it right anyway.

"Divine"

This is going to be about the robot cult started around "Angel Kat", isn't it?

Or it will be about a pigeon cult that worships Paz.

Well, looks like Annie might be in trouble.

Also, Gamma's looking a bit... worn out. Maybe it's just her makeup combined with the higher detail in the art, but it looks like she's getting the same dark bags under her eyes that people tend to get when they spend too much time in Zimmy's ethereal world.

e: Actually, looking closer, it seems like it's just the art detail. Her eyes look about the same as they did in Spring Heeled. And her power seems to be immunity to Zimmy's ethereal craziness, so it wouldn't make sense as a theory anyway.

Gamma's always sleep deprived because she tries to stay up as long as Zimmy.

People who are new to the 3rd dimension tend to be really into snuggling.

What age do you guys think the books are appropriate for? I have a cousin who's turning 11 soon, but am mildly concerned about Zimmy's cussing. Other than that I think they'd really enjoy the books.

Don't worry about it, most children love cussing.
