Annie's memories are stored in webcomic form.

Well, Red and Blue remembered Annie. It seems unlikely that animal/human transitions involve memory loss, but I suppose it's more likely than in fairy/human transitions. Actually, that makes very little sense. If fairies are a monosexual species, than it seems that they are biologically very different from humans. The fact that despite the lack of wings they are as comfortable in the air as on the ground (Green is hovering in the last panel of the last comic) makes me lean towards fairies being etheric in nature.

'getting started' So a gradual process?

Interesting how Smitty kinda melts into the background as focus shifts to Annie.
And Coyote's involved, you say?

Well, Red and Blue remembered Annie. It seems unlikely that animal/human transitions involve memory loss, but I suppose it's more likely than in fairy/human transitions. I don't think that Green is expecting supernatural memory loss from the transformation, but just that her friend will get other, human friends and forget about her over time, like Annie feared that Kat would leave her in the flashback, here. I wonder if the new Mediums could arrange a mutual visitor policy, or something...? |

'getting started' So a gradual process? There have to be several stages, if Suicide Fairies are any indication. |

Yes! Talk to Coyote about getting rid of both policies altogether!

Aaaw. Love is how we stay alive, even after we're gone.
I'm hoping, that Coyote won't muck things up too much. Then again, he may look forward to her R+ singularity, or the type of man she'll become. As far as we know, his first words will be "Tortoise. Must. DIE!"
Here's a thought. Coyote let's people join the Court. Do they pay a price? If so, is it ongoing? What if some of the students and faculty are under a geas. The Court must have safeguards against that.

If I recall correctly the suicide fairies indicated that death was their final test to join the rest of their class at the court. That seemed to imply that there were previous steps. Some sort of process that comes before the "final test." I wonder how much of the process is policy determined by those who initially developed the process for changing sides and how much of it is innate to whatever magic lets people transform. (For the purposes of this post I am using the word "people" to mean any intelligent being.) |

My response to that last panel flashback.
NOT IF YOU TWO REALIZE YOU LIVE EACH OTHER AND MARRY, BECAUSE LOOOVE IS FOREVER.
Yes, I will viciously ship Machine God Kat and her adorably dour Waifu Annie and I will feel no shame.

I could see it going this way, except maybe the love part. Don't expect any kind of sad stuff coming now after ROTD.

This is probably more relevant to the previous comic, but the flashback to Kat reminded me...Kat's first love was with a boy who was actually a bird, right? And all animals that become human at the court have to be boys, right? Even if they're actually girls?
Could Kat see through the facade, perhaps?

He went through the test to the opposite way. |

Point still stands that to the best of our knowledge Ali was presumably a cis-gendered human boy when Kat met him and developed her crush.

I wonder if transformed Forest animals lose their memory, but experience déjà-vu when they happen upon something singularly important from their former lives, without being able to actually remember. Also: Point still stands that to the best of our knowledge Ali was presumably a human boy when Kat met him and developed her crush. *Fixed. You've been wearing on my nerves when I read the discussion threads, Intelligence. Please dial back your attitude or at least give people enough respect to add tangible arguments to your superior, but extremely unclear reasoning. |
