[819] Of course I knew Renard was tricked!

Awww.
In a way.

Also, the warping backgrounds are cool.

Well.... I bet Annie feels pretty darn stupid right about now. If anything, the face in the last panel helps solidify that theory >>

well....shit now annie will feel even more crap XD

Creepy Coyote is creepy. Swirling about, never standing still, his nervous twirling and pacing at odds with his nonchalant words. What is with that background of horror-flick trees whenever he's alone in a panel? Makes me think he's really quite upset and about to do something unsettling.

Shit's going down. Oh god! :0

For me, it's that she feels guilty since she blew up on Renard (who loves her dearly). It's like when you say hateful things to your parents just to be a prat, though you don't mean them and feel bad you said them. She's at that guilt stage, ya know?

Annie's expression in the last panel : "Fuuuuuuuu-- I messed up."
Awkward teenage-parentfigure relationship is now established.

The vorpalwarpy trees are cool. Just showing Coyote's mad reality-bending skills.
Either that, or Ysengrin has been doing tree-sculpting in his free-time and Coyote is merely accentuating his 'terryfing skills of gardening'.

Thanks for the clarification about Annie's guilt.
Another thing I think is notable about this page: Ysengrin, despite his obvious distaste for Renard, is still outraged that Coyote would abandon him to the Court. It seems his loyalty to the forest (or hatred of the Court) outweighs his feelings toward Renard.

EDIT: Ninja'd by allec.

How could Reynard know and not Coyote? Did he run around the court in human flesh long enough to learn this? Or did Surma tell him and not Coyote?

I had always thought that Rey was caught fairly quickly, then locked up. Now, I wonder...

i agree, ysengrin and reynard may not "like" each other but they did come from the same series of stories.... they knew each other and to find out he was tricked and your boss KNEW about, not telling you, ysengrin should be a little angry!
and i'm really excited to see where this 'reynard loves annie' thing goes!!

There are only so many reasons why Renard would love Antimony. While having come close to possessing her body.

Deleted original post for too much speculation. This one has less, somehow.

Sivo's possession was a little over 5 years (pg.57). Annie was much older than 5 years (I believe) when Renard ditches his body, I certainly doubt 5 more years have passed while in the court.

Anthony Carver had made his absence of the hospital for around the same time frame as the 5 years Sivo had been possessed.

This leaves an open possibility that Renard-possessed Mr. Carver could have been projecting his presence to Surma in this hospital. Giving cause for both Carver's sudden disappearance as well as Renard's constant damnification of Annie's father (who he could be, in a few ways). I do believe Renard may have admitted Anthony Carver was Annie's father, but a lot of the details seem all too coincidental and dialogue does not always equal storyline canon. There have been so many times where Annie's asked Renard a question about her father where he's answered in a manner that points at himself.

Lastly, Annie goes to the Court as a consequence of her mother passing on - It seems far more likely that Renard realized Annie's presence in the Court meant Surma had died (away from the Court, which in turn prompts Annie to go there) rather than his comments being born from a sudden realization that Surma had conceived a child (and subsequently died, with no other evidence than that it was right in front of him). Annie was alive for some time while her mother was; Who's to say that Surma couldn't have been in the Court was Annie was growing up at the age she was (at the time of the meeting)? Heck, Renard even knew that Annie would have to grow a great deal (mom to daughter fire transaction), so what other than the fact that Annie was in the Court told him that Surma had passed on? Cause and effect, I like to think.

Coyote: Not very happy, check out his eyes in the first panel

And further, that he is outraged at Coyote, for abandoning Renard - not at Annie or Jones, the representatives of the Court and of humanity (?), or even Surma, the one who actually tricked Renard in the first place. More evidence that Ysengrin's motives are more complicated than "hate humans, love Coyote."
