Okay, now there are only two ways we can speculate this.
First is...what is Parley gonna do with a box of chocolates and the flower?
Route A-We can say that she is going to cry and eat and get fat and hug the poor flower to death.
Route B-We can say that she is going to do something naughty with the chocolate and flower.
Two...Jones is a prick.
Oh, and Reynardine's face and Parley's face for chocolate is epic. =D

AND. GIVE. ME. THAT.
Shit, Tom really knows how to write. The sound effects are impeccable as always, and Parley's message gets across just fine. I wouldn't say she's going to cry, but she'll definitely be confused after this.

Aw, Parley's angry and embarassed, but she still wants to keep Smitty's flower. Looks like Parley shows love through anger; Smitty's going to have his hands full if those two actually manage to sort themselves out.
So yeah, I guess on Friday we find out if they're in Parley's house or just another part of the Court. Not sure how much other exposition we'll get from Friday's comic.

I'd imagine the next few seconds will involve Parley's face neatly cast in warm chocolate, and one neatly pressed flower in her diary or that secret shrine to Smitty that she totally has.
God, that comic is heart wrenching, endearing hilarious and thought-provoking in turn. Mr Siddel is a genius, I say!

I still think that the one thing you're likely to learn, if you've got Parley and Smith for classmates, is that you don't learn anything while you've got Parley and Smith for classmates (apart from how much chaos adolescent hormones can produce).

Hah.. this page is absolutely great in every single panel!
Poor Parley.

Excellent comic. The Parley blowup had less misdirected violence than I anticipated, too, though we only saw the bedroom-intruders after getting thrown out and not any initial grabbing and pushing.

This is definately her house... But a 'hologram' of her home? The next second, they BIP back, and she's still 20 meters away from them.... unless of course it isn't her home, and it is the court. In that case... how do you BIP from one place in the court, an unreal one, to a real one?

This is possibly the most perfect and most hilarious strip in Gunnerkrigg court since the "Your hair! My hair! It goes up again! IT GOES UP AGAIN!" one. :-)

Much chocolate eating and impotent rage is going on behind that thar door.
And cathartic pillow punching. Maybe cathartic people punching!

how do you BIP from one place in the court, an unreal one, to a real one? The Imaging Chamber would be a real, not an unreal, place. It's what you see while inside it that is unreal. Also, my favorite panel is the "leave the chocolates!" |

Does this mean Parley will be able to teleport anywhere? Smitface will never be able to escape her clutches, hahah! (but I don't think he'll mind.)

Parley: is going to inarticulately rage at things, then eat the chocolate. Then furtively find a shrine for the flower.
Andrew: is going to be stuck like that for a while.
We should all be glad Jones uses her powers for good (?).
*goes back to giggling*

Hmm, if they're in Parley's house does this mean Mr. and Mrs. Parley are about to make an appearence. If only to find out how their daughter, a teacher and a couple of younger students got in without them noticing...

If it's her house, Mr. Parley won't be the least bit fazed. He'd probably sensed them coming, and is going to pull the "I've been expecting you, and don't worry about the vase" stuff the Oracle did in the first Matrix movie. Maybe Tom will even throw in "Have a cookie. I can guarantee that after eating it, you'll feel right as rain."  PS. Parley was hilarious there with the "leave the chocolates!" bit. I've my own share of chocolate love, so it's nice to see that portrayed there. |

Annie's expression there is perfect. Pretty much exactly what mine would be. Does that mean I think like a 12-year-old girl?

If they're in Parley's house and we do see Parley's parents, hopefully that will confirm/deny whether or not Parley is Brinny's daughter, for all those who had mentioned a similarity between them earlier.
Heads up, Speculationmonauts.

You people have been speculating WHAT now?  Yeesh, next someone will say Annie is really the illegitimate child of Surma and Coyote. |

We all know she's really one of the court robots implanted with false memories by the Donlan's to get over Surma's death and provide Kat with a friend.  |
