What do you mean, Kat? Annie can't tell you everything! That would make for a boring story, don't you think?

Dang, there were 3 of us trying to get first post!
Anyway, to the topic at hand.
Can the robots write eloquently?
In the column for Paz we have eloquent writing, in the for Robots column we have computer paper.

Damn you Tom (and Annie).
Letter speculation again!
I still think Aly is going to come back into it, and it is computer written because it is hard to hold a pen in a beak or talon.

Also, is this the first time we've seen the cafeteria? I believe so. I think it's only been alluded to before. Also also, I wonder what's on Kat's shirt. This is what I care most about. Probably a band or vidja shirt, but I want band. |

New theory! (I hope the dart board is big enough)
Kat thinks it's Paz so she acts on it (for better or worse) but it was actually from a robot, robots, or the robot collective.
The Cafeteria has been seen before, back in the Stone after Annie saw Jones smile

I second Kat's message in the second panel.
As for the love letter, I think it was from one of the robots. That heart symbol had far too straight lines for me not to think that.
edit: ...though now that I think about it, it could be a human who made the entire letter on a machine to prevent Kat from finding out his/her identity.

Also, is this the first time we've seen the cafeteria? probably shows it. They have a straw and knife in front of them. The fact that I found that so easily probably says something bad about me. |

Hahaha, how foolish of me to actually think we would get to see what was chasing them. Me too! |

Hoo boy. I know that Tom doesn't usually like to be called a troll, but this time he deserves it. So many things dangled in front of our eyes and then yanked away.
I really thought there was something serious about the letter the way Annie presented it at the end of the last chapter, but it seems that it's just a normal, if lengthy love letter, after all. And no sender's name, ofcourse.

I imagine that the puckish look on Annie's s face in the last panel
isn't dissimilar to the one on Tom's when he drew this page!

Tease.  Also, "little lovelies" have hilariously adorable expressions today. |

I still object to qualification of "troll" for what is merely playing with the audience's expectation.

Didn't Tom suggest once that Aly and his parents, once transformed, would have the intelligence roughly of the birds they turned into? That would basically end any speculation about that, unless he changed his mind about their sapience.

I personally don't see Tom ever going back on the "and she never saw him again" statement. But people still cling to their HOPE. I still object to qualification of "troll" for what is merely playing with the audience's expectation. The internet oftentimes suffers from oversimplification when communicating interpretations of perceived actions. (simplification: I agree.) |

New theory! (I hope the dart board is big enough) Kat thinks it's Paz so she acts on it (for better or worse) but it was actually from a robot, robots, or the robot collective. The Cafeteria has been seen before, back in the Stone after Annie saw Jones smile I suspect you're right, kind sir! The other alternative is that it's someone we either don't know or don't suspect... In terms of boy students: - Willie is dating Janet
- Smitarley
- Matt likes Ching'e
- Sullivan's John & Margo are dating
- Jack likes Zimmy
- No idea of Shadowmen date 3d creatures but I assume Shadow2 & RobotS13 are an item
In terms of girl students: - Annie - unlikely considering she was surprised to receive the letter?
- Zimmy & Gamma are an item
- Janet is dating Willie
- Parlsmits
- Margo & Sullivan's John are dating
- Red & blue ...... ?!?!?!?!?
- Paz ... likes Matt?
Etheric creatures: - Mort likes Annie?
- Coyote & Ysengrin don't have access to a computer
- The psychopomps don't seem the type...
- Jeanne: errrr.....
- It could be a student in the special forest class but Kat hasn't met any of them other than Red and Blue
Robutts: - S13 & shadow2 appear to be an item
- Doorbot: maybe
- Administratorbot: maybe
- Kingbot: unlikely
- Guardbots: maybe
- H models: no
- Laser cows: no
- Scissorbot: no
- Skywatcher:no
- TicTocs: wooooo!
- Boxbot: ew
- Robox:awesome
Staff members: The other person who writes on computer paper is Lindsey but it seems unlikely that she'd want to cheat on Bud with a non-crustacean. So I think we're down to: - Paz
- Mort
- Adminbot
- Doorbot
- Guardbot
- Unknown student
- Robox

Personally I'm against the idea of someone never seen before in the comic being the sender. It doesn't seem like something Tom would do

Why does she even have that. Panel 5 here probably shows it. They have a straw and knife in front of them. I thought that was a scalpel for some reason. Seems kind of bare if they're having a meal. Hoo boy. I know that Tom doesn't usually like to be called a troll, but this time he deserves it. It's not trolling, it's just a normal narrative gimmick. |

I vote Paz because it's plausible and cute, though I have a nagging feeling that it's actually a robot. Also: is the paper actually a sort of printer paper, or is it just futuristic-looking notebook paper? It certainly has lines on it. |
