Hmm. Checking for proof of Coyote's tomfoolery? Smart.

What's the bet that this chapter will end with a revelation that there is now a very large fingerprint on the moon?

If there isn't a picture in the fan art thread soon depicting a curly Reynardine I will be very disappointed.

No bet; it's probably what they're using the telescope for

Maybe the fingerprint is on the dark side that always faces away from Earth.

Curly Reyn!
Silly Annie, don't you know it's only as real as you let it be?
Kinda cheapens the moment by checking up on it like this although I know that she wouldn't trust Coyote.

The environment change from this page to the last is interesting. Kat is somehow technical and friendly at once in this page. It's very succinct.

I think the third panel has a typo-it should be "Well", not "Welp".

I wish I could've seen curly Reynardine too. Smart checking for lunar activity. My theory is that the Court and the Wood exist in partially separate "dimensions" where what happens in the Wood isn't neccessarily what happens in the Court as well. They're linked by the Annan Waters and the Bridge, and both seem to have enough in common as separate-yet-linked realities (or bubbles of reality) for paranormal events to leak into the Court side. That way, some of the Court's reality still leaks enough into the Wood for there to have been descendants of humans separated from the Court when the Waters were created. And it could even explain the original squabble: both sides were in their respective "realities" thinking they were right, because their own little bubbles confirmed them to be right. But once you cross from one of these bubbles, the rules change a little. In the Wood, they change enough for Coyote to bring the Moon down from the sky. In the Court, they stay by the Court's own rules, and the Moon stayed in its place. The question's going to be how much leaks between the two worlds, and what effect this all had on the Moon on the Court's side. (For a better example of the whole reality-separation thing...anyone read Marion Zimmer Bradley's "The Mists of Avalon"? Avalon, in that novel, exists in another "world" on the same island that a church does. But if you bring the mists, and then part them, you have access to the other reality--much like the walk across the Bridge and the Waters between the Court and the Wood.)

The parallel dimension/reality thing would also explain Zimmy's strange ability, Basil's presence in his time share, and the still unexplained foot steps in the mirror earlier on in the story.

While I love that book, I don't think it's for everyone. It's huge. But I think you explained it adequately enough without readers having to be MIA for a while to read it and get the idea, LAUGHING ON LINE.

Yeah. It is huge. Forgot to mention that. :/ What I really wanted was to just explain the parallel worlds thing. The big difference seems to me that the parallel worlds are in separate locations, but there's still that bridge of realities. Makes me wonder why the Court pushed to have that bridge built. Bet it was to get to those humans separated when the Waters were created. I'm itching to see Jones' explanation for that whole story.

This was the first page I read after waiting for it for two agonizing days. When you read the whole story as a whole, you really take the fact that there was a space between every page for granted. I thought it was funny that Annie would actually check for lunar activity to see if it was an illusion or not. I laughed when Kat mentioned Reynardine getting all curly, I can't wait to see what happened to him.
