That's when I started reading it but because the Achewood reference got posted in that thread

What Achewood reference?

What? No, Parley. It's called bip fighting.

That's what "Unsichtbarhau" means in German, though.





(I am not doing German for my A-levels, either.)

Wasn't she not supposed to be showing that to anyone? I feel like I must have missed or forgotten something.

She wasn't supposed to tell anyone in the forest about it but Coyote apparently doesn't mind if she tells the court.

Of course Coyote's tooth laughs like he does. Of course.

This makes me wonder.

Let's say Parley swings her sword at Smitty. With Smitty's chaos-into-order gimmick, what exactly would happen?

He trips at the last second and the blade ends up cleanly removing a previously-undetected tumor.

God help us all if they cut the fourth wall in half.

Tea-san draws a future scene with Coyote's Tooth, his hand slips while he's inking, and then he shows up at the next comic convention with a stump wrapped in bandages.

Are they reacting to Red being called Red there?

Wait, has she never been called Red before?

That's what I figured, since the chapter is called Red Gets A Name.

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 Tom said once that Annie's accent was basically the same as Kate Rusby's, though, since a lot of Gunnerkrigg was inspired by her music.

Did we ever find out what moddey dhoo means in that panel?

I think the reason he doesn't want her to say the message might be a sort of "we don't know who could be listening" sort of deal.

Particular since Jones, technically, doesn't side with the Court. Maybe he was worried her phone has listening devices. So it had to be FZZAKed.

So it's a portable door that leads only to the other side of that wall. What's behind the wall other than a staircase?

I think it just leads to whatever's on the other side of whichever wall he puts it on.

Man I hope we get some answers soon, and it doesn't all end in a church.

Note: What I hope for does not necessarily a good story make.

Turns out that dragging out answers for six years and ending it all in a church doesn't a good story make either. So you're probably safe.

Boxbot has a stick that automatically breaks as soon as he is summoned which summons Robox, who does all the work. Boxbot remains shunned in the corner.

Boxbot has a powerful etheric presence. When Tom says Boxbot is terrible, he means it in the old-school sense.

I can watch this forever. :allears: Actually this put me on a trait of thought that evaporated almost instantly but left me with the question, would Jones, having lived the entirety of mankind's existence and having learned endless languages preceding English, have a British accent? Would she have an accent? Would it be recognisable as anything we might know?

Tom said (on Formspring, I think?) that Jones doesn't have a specific accent, i.e., you can't really place where her accent is from.

Her speech patterns sound more mature in full fire elemental mode (with the mask on). I wonder if the fire elemental aspect of her is a gestalt of its previous hosts? Or at least lends its more experienced perspective when invoked.

Antimony using a more mature speech pattern is nothing new. Actually, it seems like in recent times she's started talking more informally than she did at the beginning of the strip.

Ehhhhhhh.

For a less rediculous example, try these two pages.

I think that, if they could, Paranatural, Gunnerkrigg Court, and Cucumber Quest would all be friends and tell each other that they all had some pretty good faces.
