Why he loves humans but also why Ysengrin hates them. Hmmm... All I can think is that it's something to do with Reynardine, but that isn't exactly a secret. :/

But... I wanted to hear some stories... Tom's made it clear that Antony is Annie's father, and there was never intended to be any doubt about it. (Though if he really wasn't, it might explain his coldness towards her - the result of his wife's infidelity.) Remember Coyote can do the possession thing! Thus it could still technically be Anthony doing the biological nonsense, and Anthony would feel extra weird about it! Also is it possible to quote two people in one comment? I've seen it done but can't figure it out.

Tom's tweets on today's page:
@gunnerkrigg A true, literary cliffhanger is not something that ceases to exist after two days.
@gunnerkrigg Regarding my latest page: What you guys call a "cliffhanger", I call "the end of the current page". They have to end somewhere.
Heh.

Well this is a serial work after all. So technically this is both a cliffhanger and the end of the page

Has Tom ever broken the fourth wall before? The great secret: Tea is Coyote's avatar!

Ooh! Just noticed what a wonderful landscape view Panel 1 is (the Court from Gilletie Wood, with Sun backing)

"My secret is...that I am a fictional creation in a webcomic written by an amazing human artist, Tom Siddell, and I couldn't possibly hate my own creators, now could I?" Hey, anything's possible at this point! Quote the second person and then copy paste it into the edit field on your post. Thank you! You can also simply write the quote-marks, if you don't mind that the details about the date and so forth don't show up above them. Like this: [quote author=insertnamehere]Insert the quote here[/quote]

Thus it could still technically be Anthony doing the biological nonsense, and Anthony would feel extra weird about it! Coyote can't do that any more, it was explained quite a few chapters back (I think between first and second treatise) that any power that Coyote gifts he can no longer use until the recipient returns it. In this case the recipient is Reynardine and he was gave the gift a loong time before Annie was born, the power was the whole reason that Reynardine is even in the court instead of the forest. Also (whether intentionally cause he thought it would be entertaining or because Coyote doesn't know how to have it not happen) when a power is gave it has a side-effect it never had when Coyote had it.

I don't remember reading anything like that. Perhaps you are mistaken? I'm pretty sure it has been mentioned somewhere too, but it might be just in a Formspring answer, or an interpretation of one. Coyote is literally giving his powers away when he shares them, or that's the impression I've gotten. Ofcourse considering just how varied his powers are, he could probably simulate anything he's given away through some other power -- possession through shapechanging or mind-control, control over trees with general telekinesis, etc.

That was narration. Narration is supposed to be to the viewer. In those instances it wasn't acknowledged by anyone else in the strip that she was saying anything, this time it has. That's what breaks the fourth wall. That was narration. Narration is supposed to be to the viewer.

I don't recall reading that in the strip, in Tom's commentary accompanying the strip or on formspring.

Next Wednesday all will be explained. I think some optimism is just what this thread needed! Thank you. All: a word indicating every member of a group, every instance of an archetype or category, or the entirety of an object. There, all has been explained.

Coyote's secret, the reason that he really loves humans... is that he really LOVES humans. Especially with BBQ sauce.

Coyote is a sparkly were-vampire who likes humans because he needs to drink their blood, and have emo romances, and Y is angry because it is so embarrassing - he wishes he was a traditional scary werewolf or vampire instead.
Annie being a young teenage fan of sparkly vampires will think it is wonderful and want to hug Y.
