WoooooOOOOOOOOOO
This is tapping directly into the same stuff Kat has been worrying about for a while so I predict she's not going to react well.

Damnit, Paz with her almost-perfect-but-still-ever-so-slighty-broken English is just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. I swear, if Kat turns her down, I will be so freaking sad I'm liable to just begin bawling along with Paz. Please, Kat, please don't do it. ;(

I want to read that letter!
anyway, I think Kat's gonna jerk away her hand, while still looking bewildered, causing an awkward moment between them, which can't end well. :s

I predict she's not going to react well. Who knows, maybe it'll even be a catalyst for some kind of abrupt change.

Kat freaks out, seduces Jack who has a thing for lesbians and they run away to the forest together! They bump into Kamlen and the remains of some Tic-Tocs and it is SUPER AWKWARD. Next, Kat bio-engineers an evil elf-bird-bot! Annie thinks this is super hilarious and runs towards the forest laughing maniacally, Smitty and Parley in tow.

snipertom: And then, Batman. Ahem. Seriously, Kat rejecting any advance in 3...2...1. Please don't, i'd cry. We'd all cry, even Fluttershy. Don't make Fluttershy cry. Awww. So adorable.

(though knowing Kat's awkwardness about this situation, her running off is pretty likely) Kat doesn't run off. Though scuttling away with "sorry! I forgot to turn off a microscope! Byebyebye!" is an option. Kat freaks out, seduces Jack who has a thing for lesbians and they run away to the forest together! They bump into Kamlen and the remains of some Tic-Tocs and it is SUPER AWKWARD. Next, Kat bio-engineers an evil elf-bird-bot! Annie thinks this is super hilarious and runs towards the forest laughing maniacally, Smitty and Parley in tow. As a reaction on such a development, "laughing maniacally" seems to be about right. In fact... I'll go do it now. Thank you. ;D

Well I never! Kat's been doing a bit of worrying too. Monday *might* bring a recap of this scene. (fade to headbands drifting through the aether) However, there's likely to be another week's worth in this chapter.

I support Paz/Kat over Annie/Kat now, but starting to think Annie started the rumor with Kat around the time she was stealing her homework

So Kat goes: "but... I... huh!" What she's trying to say is "but I'm not gay/like that/whatever" but she stops and says "huh!" when Paz says "thinking and worrying, over and over". Expanding on what I said, I think by saying that she's convinced Kat at the very least to think about it Maybe, but I would say she's just stunned and probably isn't actually listening to Paz right now.

Turning down a robot is one thing, and Kat even tried to do that gently. Remember her appalled reaction when Annie blew up at Mort? Put me down for a noncommittal strategic withdrawal instead of an immediate rejection (or taking Paz up on it, I suppose); this is new information that’ll take some time to process.
What’s all this about the treatise implying that Kat and Annie get together? Seems pretty normal for close female friends to hold hands. Unless I’m missing something.

Expanding on what I said, I think by saying that she's convinced Kat at the very least to think about it Yeah, agreed! And I can't wait to FINALLY hear Kat actually talk about what she's been feeling all these months. (The "but" might be lots of things, really; "but... you were the one who said you WEREN'T like that!" was the first thing that came to my mind particularly given Kat's bsod, heh)

Unlike Annie, Kat won't go apeshit at Paz if she's straight, she'll be gentle

We know how Kat reacts. And we know how Paz in turn reacts on this. Back when Matt tried to turn down her advances in a gentle and less than decisive manner, Paz continued as long as she was able to remain oblivious, so pressurized awkwardness fermented until it spilled all around - some even got on Kat.

Looking back at the Faraway Morning, there's actually quite a lot of subtle framing between Kat and Paz.
While there's similarities with how Paz reacted to Matt, on this occasion she's thought things through.
So maybe Kat says 'But..I..don't like you very much.' and Paz replies with 'Phew! That's a relief!'*
*Such a classic put down from Jack! And he and Annie still seem to be on talking terms.

Oh a kiss is much to soon. If Kat does anything positive it'll be to continue starring with perhaps the odd glance to Paz and then back into space. All the while Paz will continue rambling. Then finally with her mind made up Kat will give that hand a small squeeze. Or something along those lines.

Someone mentioned the treatise and I looked back on it and now I have a bad feeling.
Kat has a heart with a 'stop' or 'no' sign over it - like what would be put over a cigarette for 'no smoking'.
Paz is telling her that she knows that '[Kat] and Annie are just friends'.
I think... Kat is going to rebuff Paz and become upset that Annie just views her as a friend. At least, that's my current theory to fit with the symbolism on the treatise.

It's such a touching page, but I have the looming sense of dread that it will not go the way Paz wants. I predict Kat will let her down gently.
Also: oooh, new side comic, Annie in the Forest.

It could also symbolise her denying her hearts desires, you really can't gain any foresight from the treatise, only hindsight

I wonder how the robots will react if Kat and Paz get together... Or Kat and anyone, really.

I can't really see how either meaning can fall in line with her going out with Paz. Don't get me wrong - I want them to get together because Paz is adorable and Kat has been let down a lot by Annie lately and I think it would do Kat a ton of good to expand her social circle outside of 'Annie' and 'Annie's friends'. I'm just pointing out that the treatise doesn't give a good prognosis for any relationships in Kat's future.

They've been posting the strip with Paz's last, and rather disastrous attempt, at holding someone hand. A rather large number seem convinced this is where it goes down hill. Some are convinced if she does say no, she'll do it gently. We've got this too:
