Aren't smiles meant to make me feel good? Because this does not feel good.  |

I thought "Unintended Consequences" was the subtitle of about 9/10 of all fiction... and a larger share of history.

It was 100% a good idea to do this without having a plan for afterwards.

Also, if you glance at the comic quickly, panels #3 and #4 can merge into a new more interesting Coyote form.

Invasion of glass-eyed shadows in 3.. 2.. I don't think he will be so crude as that. He may threaten with the invasion but his plans span decades. He has all the time in the world and he is cunning. On the other hand... he is mad like a hatter and arrogant. So... ok, invasion it is. |

And we have just enough time to see where it begins this week (save an interim page or tea break occurs.) Edit: Wait, there's ALWAYS an interim page, isn't there? Ah well, next week. |

Huh, despite all my rhetoric about the forest invading the court all the psychopomp shenanigans had made me forget about that and, until I read this thread, thought Coyote was smiling about Annie accepting the offer. This is not good, this is not good at all.
Time for Kat to become Hero Of The Court while Annie is busy with psychopomp duties?

Oh, I'm sure this is totally unrelated and not meant to be foreboding at all. Perhaps he simply sniffed some prey he's been hunting for an extremely long time, like perhaps ages, and just realized that the natural advantage it had was suddenly lost, possibly due to a cunning trap he laid with the help of a few unsuspecting patsies. And it's just a total coincidence that the comic happened to cut to him exactly at this moment, right after the main characters released Jeanne from the prison that kept her as guardian of the Annan for centuries, without ever discovering the reason why this was done to her.
Yes, I'm sure everything will be just fine

Knew from the instant that that was two different depictions of Coyote and not, you know, one really messed-up form. Because I'm smart like that. S-M-R-T kind of smart. Just trust in me. |

golly gee willikers it's great to know that the most powerful barrier between the court and forest has been removed
it would be such a shame if someone were to take advantage of the power vacuum...

What people are forgetting is that Coyote made the Annan Waters in the first place to separate the two sides.
..OK, so Jeanne was an afterthought of the Court. Of what, we don't know. Point is that Jeanne served to maintain the separation put in place by His Lordship. Why would he want to break it (other than being Coyote)?

This is not good, this is not good at all. Time for Kat to become Hero Of The Court while Annie is busy with psychopomp duties? hmmm, now that you mention it, it *is* easier to smell the presence something (all the pomps + the gang) than the lack of something (ghost Jeanne... do ghosts even *have* a smell?) maybe, just maybe, he *is* reacting to the pomping of Annie (inferred from the presence of so many pomps, plus our favorite fire-head) rather than the lack of an Annan animal control officer. But probably not.... |

Before everyone rushes to condemn Annie and Co.'s action in light of this page, let's remember that trapping two people in a state of life-in-death as barriers that they had not volunteered for or consented to is still wrong (all the more so when one of the trappers, at least, had selfish and ignoble motives). I think that Annie and the others had a moral duty to set Jeanne and her boy-friend free; letting them stay after knowing about the Founders' act would have made them accessories.
Maybe trouble will come from this; doing the right thing doesn't necessarily mean completely happy results. (I'm thinking now of stories where somebody refuses to kill a helpless person, even when the person's also an unpleasant character - particularly out of a wish not to become a murderer - and the person whom he spares later does horrible things - say, Bilbo sparing Gollum in "The Hobbit", with the result that Gollum years later will tell Sauron that "Baggins" has the Ring.) But some things matter more than mere earthly prosperity.

Point is that Jeanne served to maintain the separation put in place by His Lordship. Why would he want to break it (other than being Coyote)? Before Jeanne the separation was, presumably, on his terms. The physical growth of the court limited by its waters. But no barrier to the agents of the forest. Jeanne changed the dynamic to be on the court's terms, not that the modern court knows it. |
