Maybe he will get burned, but he won't die or get seriously injured. By the power of physics and sketchy assumptions, I summon a counterpoint!

Personally, i'm not really worried about Ysengrin (aka best dad wolf ever). He's a demi god, i think he can handle a teenager part fire elemental. Maybe he will get burned, but he won't die or get seriously injured. It doesn't even look like he's getting burned at all, except where Annie tries to claw away his wooden hand in panel #2. It's not like that time when she boiled away lamp posts. The generic rage - isn't really about anyone or anything in particular. So the target is NULL. But if her skirt really is torn/slit to the waist that's a sign Antimony might be MARVEL COMICS level angry Which one it is? "U WILL NO LIEK ME WEN IMM ANGRY"?

Even if Ys can cover his face completely and target/navigate etherically, how long can he hold his breath? She would just have to maintain a moderately-high temperature (compared to what we've seen her do) in the air around him for a while; if he inhales she's won... But if her skirt really is torn/slit to the waist that's a sign Antimony might be MARVEL COMICS level angry Which one it is? "U WILL NO LIEK ME WEN IMM ANGRY"? There are so many choices. With her tragic backstory, how about Antimony Carver, Agent of S WORD?

:sadface: :thesaddestoffaces:
Well someone's going to die, and Annie's going to spiral into a worse emotional state. It's not she's going to want to use this as confirmation that suppressing her emotions is the only right thing to do or anything. Nope. I don't think Annie's ever actually killed/hurt anyone before. This is going to be absolutely awful.

Annie is going to die. After she passes her life force / fire elemental to her daughter.

To be fair, this is the webcomic that has Jeanne in it. And (had) Mort. Though yeah at this point I'm pretty sure Bunny-Boy will come out of this perfectly fine. If not even better than before, after having visited his friend.

This is the place of Annie's rebirth. She is coming back to herself, step by step. Bunny embodies all of her purpose as a forest medium. She has given him hope to become human without cutting all ties to the forest. He is there to remind her that she is an important, valuable and respected person. From a storytelling point of view, to have him get fried in a fit of rage makes as much sense than to have Annie die by falling down the stairs on her way to the toilet (THE END). Same goes for Ysengrin.
And for all who think that Fire Annie is a mindless rage thing, all I have to say is on this page: www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1538 She isn't Jeanne. She is hurt and angry, but she is several centuries of mad furor and mindnumbing pain away from being Jeanne.
Annie is going to die. After she passes her life force / fire elemental to her daughter. Right. And the others will die too, of old age, car accidents, lung cancers and other causes. But not this chapter.

Agreed, but I don't think she's going to snap out of it immediately.

In my defense, I was totally that person who thought pixar would kill everyone off in horrifying ways in Toys 3. Actually...that doesn't do a great job of defending me. But yeah I was really scared there. So glad bunny didn't get hurt.
