Huh.I'm guessing that is her father in the flame? Guess this is how Zimmy does a physical.

Zimmy does a physical by denting your bones with her hands, yes.
That is why so no longer has the license to practice medicine.

Agh! Poor wee demon muppet. I hope this doesn't go wrong. I feel that something's about to go wrong. Also, why is there fire in Zimmy's eyes?

Just like real Zimmy. Only with lasers.

When I said yesterday "Law of Unintended Consequences in 3, 2, 1..." I misspoke. I should have said "Law of Unintended Consequences in 3...."
Today is the "2, 1..."
At least I hope that the metaphorical explosion happens tomorrow. I really hope Tom isn't going to cliffhanger us over the weekend.

For once, I'll allow myself to make a guess: Next we'll have Zimmy physically standing right behind Anthony (I guess that's his back she's touching there in the last panel) telling him to stop whatever he's doing because he's hurting his daughter. He'll be quite startled. Next page will show Annie being awake again. And in one of the following chapters, Anthony will show up in person!

Oh hai Anthony?
What are the red lines in 'panel' one supposed to represent?
Zimmy's fingers digging deeper in the 'bone' = causing disruption, or reading deeper ?

Haha. At this rate, Friday's post will be equally ambiguous and have the "end of chapter" symbol, and then on Monday we'll begin a new City Face mini-series.
(City Face will have a bad case of the headkats.)

(City Face will have a bad case of the headkats.) ^ sounds legit. And i wonder if Zimmy's fingers turning dark (necrotic?) at the touch of the bone things is ominous of the nature of bone things. and actually I would really like to see city face with a case of the headkats. gosh golly that needs to exist somehow... |

Hm. The red has disappeared from Zimmy's hair. I think that means she's now in contact with Anthony, rather than Antimony.

Oh, good. So, not only everyone and their shrub-dog sees blinker-users, but someone can plainly piggyback on the link and see the other side? A toy, indeed. I wonder whether this also works both ways. In bioth senses. I'm guessing that is her father in the flame? To me, it looks like transition - Zimmy goes to the other side. Also, why is there fire in Zimmy's eyes? She merges with the "cable" which is merged with Antimony. Who, as we already know, got fire inside. Thus walking into the fire. Also, they're in even closer contact than before. And before that there was an identity problem, so it goes beyond what's already beyond potentially unhealthy (for both parties). Unless fiery Annie turns to be a cleansing influence. Haha. At this rate, Friday's post will be equally ambiguous and have the "end of chapter" symbol, and then on Monday we'll begin a new City Face mini-series. (City Face will have a bad case of the headkats.) Aye.  |

TBeholder was pointing out how insecure blinker stones are - a third party can just jump on the connection between two parties and ride it either way. That's why it's a toy, since for anything important you'd want something more private. Although, Annie has spied on Bud and Lindsey, who were communicating without stones, and you'd think they'd be more careful in that respect. Maybe the ether is just fundamentally public. Which in turn raises interesting questions about things like Anthony's secrecy and the Donlans' hybrid computer. Could anyone with etheric abilities hijack it? Can you encrypt network traffic over the ether..? |

It's been hijacked - Jack Hyland used it to pin down Renard using the same symbol.

I guess that's his back she's touching there in the last panel I think it's the "bone" things. You can see she's reaching for them at the top, and the knobble on the side is visible at the bottom. |

Well this just keeps getting stranger.
Is it weird that I stared at that last bit very long trying to figure out why Zimmy's in a labcoat?
Also, those sparks around Zimmy's hand in the first panel are very Antimony-red so it does seem she's finding Tony through Annie somehow. I still like the over-extended blinker stone theory, and piggybacking onto that link would fit here.
The last panel seems like she's broken through whatever resistance there was, and actually made dents in the bone. Seems like this is taking a lot of effort from Zimmy.

I wonder if the shapes in the flame are the bodies it has inhabited before Annie.

If she really is behind (ether)Anthony, that would be a trick to get us to think it's the bones, but it would actually the loose fabric leading to the cuff of his shirt. ...right now, I dare not guess which is more likely! Edit: Also, new favorite image of Zimmy in panel two! |

So Zimmy could be facing Anthony in the next page.
It looks the same figure of a man is seen in the fire, and Zimmy is getting closer to seeing him more clearly.
I wonder if Zimmy will have identity problems with Kat later on. I think that Kat has actually fallen asleep and Zimmy somehow entered the room through Kat's mind. It would explain why Cityface is there and why Renard and the others are frozen.

So basically Carvers father is trying to remove the fire elemental from her and the process is shedding some form of energy. Zimmy, being as natural receiver of such energies gets part of it on her, hence the scar (which is visible faintly in panel 2 btw.) and red hair.
And now, after entering Carvers soul thru her dreams, Zimmy is traveling into space to confront Carvers father about his experiment.
Best comic ever ^^

Which in turn raises interesting questions about things like Anthony's secrecy and the Donlans' hybrid computer. Could anyone with etheric abilities hijack it? Probably would require hardware acess too... It's been hijacked - Jack Hyland used it to pin down Renard using the same symbol. Inconclusive. We know he was in the more secret part of the Court's normal network. Maybe he just got Donlans' documentation on the project and made a crude imitation. I think that Kat has actually fallen asleep and Zimmy somehow entered the room through Kat's mind. It would explain why Cityface is there and why Renard and the others are frozen. That's... actually a good hypothesis. So far, Kat's research was held back by lack of understanding of the magic part, and there were hints (ancestry, pigeon-insight) of at least some potential. This would require some minimal talent from her, also Zimmy's high-powered tricks may leave Kat "touched", and most likely not in such a destructive way as Jack with whitelegs. |

I agree! It's his back.
