Perhaps Annie is worried someone spotted Shadow, although Shadow has been hiding himself in the Court for years so it probably isn't him who's been seen.
Worse case it's the Fun City crew.

Maybe some creatures entered via the roots that grew across the annan canyon? And after one of the bound dogs was killed, the shadows it carried went back into the court buildings. so could be many things. Seeing some guests from fun city would be awesome :-)

The question is:

"Insensitive"? Isn't it "insensible"? Does it even make a difference? As a non-english-speak-human-person, I find it all very confusing.

In this case, insensitive = not sensitive = not delicate/nice

"... the barrier was used." Tom continues to tease about who / what created / activated / used the barrier / shield without providing more hints about who / what. The Court may be the ones who are just going to leave the robots, but that doesn't mean the Court used the barrier. "Insensitive"? Isn't it "insensible"? Does it even make a difference? As a non-english-speak-human-person, I find it all very confusing. Sensitive means "that demonstrates empathy and compassion" Sensible means "that demonstrates reason and logic" Used in a sentence: The Court is sensible to the point of being insensitive. Or if you prefer: Anthony is sensible to the point of being insensitive. |

Shadow2 is the most likely candidate for the "forest creature sightings". The period between the start of Ysengrin's assault on the Court and the force field going up was so short that I doubt the forest-folk would have had much time to get inside. The destruction of the bridge at the start of the attack would have made that period even shorter - until the branches began forming the new bridge, the forest-folk wouldn't have been able to cross (without a long climb down one cliff and up the other, and there doesn't seem to have been time enough for that). On top of it, Ysengrin's attack was so sudden that I doubt any of the forest-folk would have even known he was making it until afterwards; he showed no sign of pausing long enough to inform the other inhabitants of Gilltie Wood about the changed situation.

I'm just so happy that Tony is actually vocalizing his consideration of someone else's feelings. He always seems like the kind of person who is oblivious to that kind of thing.
And I love the little Metal Gear exclamation point Annie's got over her head.

"Reports of forest creatures" might just be Anthony being vague, but for what it's worth everyone who's on panel here already knows about Shadow.(also, "creatures" is plural) |

On top of it, Ysengrin's attack was so sudden that I doubt any of the forest-folk would have even known he was making it until afterwards; he showed no sign of pausing long enough to inform the other inhabitants of Gilltie Wood about the changed situation. There was that brief but substantial period after a wood bridge forms and between when Annie and Smits each run to different parts of the court and for Eggs and Parley to return, that also includes time for the robots to assemble for the shield, all before eventually the shield gets activated and the tree branches get cut. Supposing it takes Annie under 5 minutes to get to her room (which is absurdly fast imo!) and about as much for all the robots to get to the rooftops, that's still enough time for a couple of critters to sneak into the Court, I suspect. There's also no need for Ysenyote to 'pause' because, as we know, Coyote can stop time and turn into any number of things simultaneously; he might easily have distributed his consciousness as he was going after the bridge. |

"Insensitive"? Isn't it "insensible"? Does it even make a difference? As a non-english-speak-human-person, I find it all very confusing. I was wondering about that myself, the literal translation of insensitive (gevoelloos) in Dutch would be more appropriate as a description of personality, so I'll translate it as either "harteloos" (heartless) or "tactloos" (guess). Probably the latter. I'm just so happy that Tony is actually vocalizing his consideration of someone else's feelings. He always seems like the kind of person who is oblivious to that kind of thing. Yeah, maybe he's working on it... Next step: he will say something nice to his daughter. |

At Tony's pace he might say something nice to Annie right about the time she's ready for her nursing home. |

Under no circumstances should the word 'with' be added to Tom's page blurb.
You know who you are.

Compared to his kid version, it's an improvement. For some people, that is something you 'learn' over time - they might not avoid the reaction itself but can see when they mess up. Adults on the spectrum, holla. |

Adults on the spectrum, holla. Yeah, I'm holding the theory that Tony has autism as solid canon, even if it isn't mentioned outright in the comic. I know it's been a huge struggle for him in the past because of this, and I'm so happy he's learning. Also, he's a man hard-bent on control who ADMITTED HE MADE A MISTAKE to Juliette. Improvement, indeed! I'm so proud! |
