OK, this chapter is now officially into Whiskey Tango Foxtrot mode and I am going to stop even trying to understand it and just enjoy the ride.

Seems Zimmy and Gamma can hear more than each others thoughts...or this is a dream.

It must be like the Whiteleg that Jack picked up. However, it's a pigeon. An ethereal pigeon. That has taken root on Kat's head. Explains everything. That's what I thought as well. Kat has similar black lines around her eyes as Jack had. oooh maybe Gamma meant that KAT needed Zimmy's help...not Annie. I'm with you. Also: a pidgeon hat topic to complement the party hat one?

Kat has been playing a bit too much Hatoful Boyfriend.

I agree on the general "Haha! What?" vibe here.
Hmm, perhaps a bit random, but - could the pigeon be another angel or divine entity in the robots' "mythology"?

"Kat. You have headpigeons. Go and see the nurse." This. At least they're less ominous than the whitelegs.

It could be that only Zimmy sees the pigeon, but Gamma knows about it by their telepathy

it's a etheric representation of City Face, who also represents Kat's thoughts and feelings. because she can't see the ether, she can't see him. presumably this is being caused by etheric shenanigans, probably related to whatever is happening to Annie.
that's my theory, anyway.

I bet she's actually referring to the persistent rumor (spread by Robot) that Kat is a robosexual goddess of light. or that she's directly talking about the Angel thing spread by Robot and see if she also thinks about what caused the Paz incident Also imaginaryfriend, your Headband of +5 Straightness is what i shall forever call that headband

Kat has similar black lines around her eyes as Jack had. that seems more like lack of sleep due to Annie being in the condition she's in. aka while everyone besides robot? seems to be asleep

(anyone notice another profile shot... Zimmy this time?) Yeah, and thanks to the last thread I'm never going to stop noticing them from now on.

This is going to be one of those times when I just tune out, read the words, and look at the pretty pictures until things start making sense again, huh? Not used to going through those with GC. Plenty of practice with others, though. Pretty sure the birds represent Parley and Smitty.

It's funny, Zimmy's inky black eyes could be consider like, super bags or something.

Aye - we thought only Zimmy gives people etheric cooties mad spiders, and suddenly oops... it turns out that Paz quietly saddled poor Kat with a mental pigeon. ;D So... once again, if Annie cared to take a look, her friend wouldn't carry this thing around all this time? oooh maybe Gamma meant that KAT needed Zimmy's help...not Annie. Why not? Zimmy: <splat> Don't worry, nose! Jes' some telepath stuck a stool pigeon on ya. Dis crap was monkeyin' your thoughts aloud, that's all. Kat: ... Zimmy: Hahaha! Don't understand it myself. But these things are squishy. The mood whiplash is really starting to hurt but in a good way Heh, heh, heh. Welcome to our little Mood Whiplash Addicts Anonymous... Oh, and it was Paz that... hmmm. I wonder what Zimmy sees when she looks at Paz. Definitely not a gray silhouette. If it is all a dream I don't think it could be Kat's or Zimmy's, because Kat shouldn't know about the cut and Zimmy shouldn't know about City Face... Annie had no cut on the previous page. Though this time her face is "accidentally" covered with a speech bubble.

Though this time her face is "accidentally" covered with a speech bubble. The Zimster had it in the beginning of the chapter which (all else held equal) means that ALL of this can't be Kat's dream... ...but if this is a dream then that might be a continuity break in the last panel of #1031. In that case it's probably a collective experience between ZimGam and Kat and Kat's subconscious. There is a deep shadow by the door, though, so that dark panel isn't an impossible scene. But the simple explanation right now would be that the pigeon is a representation of Kat's inner turmoil leaking out where ZimGam can perceive it, and that everyone was tired so nobody heard ZimGam enter. There is insufficient data to guess which right now but I am leaning toward this being real (except for the pigeon) since we had a de-Zimminghamification already this chapter. Also imaginaryfriend, your Headband of +5 Straightness is what i shall forever call that headband Coming soon from Topatoco, one can hope.

I've been expecting a chapter dealing with Kat's sexuality and/or the other character's opinions on it (mistaken and/or not) for a while now. There've been hints about it all over the place. Looking forward to seeing what might come of this.

Though, thinking about it, this does look like a setting for some nightmare Kat would have: her best friend is in the coma for an unknown reason, and then a girl she doesn't like comes to taunt her about her insecurities.

This page is hysterical. Mainly because of City Face. (That is City Face, right?)

Makes me think again about the second page of this chapter: "I don't wanna see her!" "She needs your help." Perhaps this 'she' is not Annie but Kat, who needs help with being possessed by an angry pigeon spirit.
Maybe the pigeon has been making Kat act more masculine?

So does Kat have... Head pigeons? It's baffling that a hospital would let Kat near any patients with such a horrible disease.
